About Total House Inspection

Total House Inspection Inc.

Do you need a home inspection? You’re not alone. House and property inspections are a vital part of the home buying process, ensuring that everyone is aware of the problems associated with a property before the final sale takes place.

Since a home is the largest investment that most people will ever make, it’s incredibly important that a house inspector is as thorough as possible. You don’t want just anyone inspecting your house; you want someone who has the experience and the know-how to find the problems that might escape most people. That’s what Total House Inspection offers.

Total House Inspection is proud to serve the home inspection needs of Michigan, including the cities of:​

We inspect Ann Arbor, Dexter, Brighton, Howell, Flint to Lapeer, Port Huron, Southgate, Taylor

Buyers

The most common reason that a house inspection is performed is to identify any problems that might affect the buyer. A buyer is about to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a house, so they want to make sure that there won’t be any hidden problems that show up after they move in.
If big problems are discovered, the buyer can then negotiate a lower price from the seller or insist that the seller fix the damage before the sale occurs. If the problems with the house are excessive, the buyer may be able to rescind their offer to buy. Find out more about existing home inspections by clicking here.

Maintenance

Some homeowners who have lived in their homes for a time — whether a few years or a few decades — might be concerned about the problems that have arisen during their stay. Is it okay to ignore the crack in the foundation, or should it be repaired? Is it okay that the doorjamb squeaks, or is it indicative of a framing problem? A house inspector can give advice on what to do before small problems become large ones. Find out more here.

Sellers

Some sellers decide to have home inspection services done before the house is put on the market. This lets them address any problems, making the property more attractive to potential buyers and removing reasons they might want to negotiate or renege on the offer.

New Construction

When building a home, people like to think that the construction crew is giving the utmost attention to their work. But homes are like any other physical good, in that not every worker is doing their best work every time. New home inspections can find problems that might have slipped by the contractor, and even find things wrong that city code enforcers might miss. You’ll sleep better at night knowing that your new home is up to a home inspectors specification. Click here to learn more about new home inspections.

Additional Inspection Services

Total House Inspection offers extra services for an additional cost. While these aren’t included in a traditional home inspection, they are highly recommended.

Sewer Camera Inspections

A sewer backup can cause a disgusting mess in a home and cost over 10,000 to dig up and replace. It can also mean having to take down big trees on the property, something that homeowners would rather avoid. Having a sewer scope inspection ensures that unground path to the public sewer system is clear.

Radon Inspections

Radon is an odorless, colorless radioactive gas that is caused by the radioactive decay of the trace amounts of uranium that are in the soil. Unfortunately, it can get into the lungs and damage DNA, causing lung cancer. Having a home radon-tested lets you know whether radon mitigation is necessary…or if you should even purchase the home in the first place.

Mold Inspection Service

Black mold can cause a host of health problems, both physical and mental. Some people suffer respiratory problems, while others might have headaches or depression. A house inspector can test for black mold to make sure the house isn’t affected.
