Annual Home Maintenance Inspections in The Mid-South
A home maintenance inspection is one of the smartest ways to protect your investment and avoid unexpected repair costs. Unlike a real estate inspection that’s focused on a sale, a maintenance inspection is designed specifically for homeowners who want to stay proactive about the condition of their property.
Over time, even well-built homes experience normal wear and tear — shingles age, sealants crack, plumbing joints loosen, and foundations shift slightly with the seasons. Small issues can quietly develop into expensive repairs if they go unnoticed. Our Annual Home Maintenance Inspections are meant to catch those early signs of trouble, giving you the chance to address them before they cause damage.
Each inspection includes a detailed, easy-to-understand report outlining the condition of your home’s major systems and components. We highlight areas that need attention, note developing issues that should be monitored, and provide maintenance recommendations that help you plan ahead — so your home continues to perform as it should for years to come.
What a Home Maintenance Inspection includes:
An Annual Home Maintenance Inspection gives homeowners a clear picture of how their home is aging and performing over time. Unlike a one-time inspection during a sale, this service focuses on long-term protection — helping you catch developing issues early and plan for repairs or upgrades before they become costly surprises.
Our inspections cover all major systems — roof, foundation, structure, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC — checking for signs of wear, moisture intrusion, or components nearing the end of their useful life. We help you understand what’s normal aging versus what requires attention, so you can maintain your home confidently and avoid unexpected repairs.
Just like your car needs regular service, your home deserves a yearly checkup to keep everything running safely, efficiently, and reliably.
A large part of buying a home is wanting to be safe from the weather. This starts with the roof. The inspection of the roof includes the roof coverings, gutters, downspouts, flashings, chimney, vents, skylights, roof penetrations, as well as the general structure, and condition.
Your home is more than what you see every day. That is why our home inspectors look at the insulation and ventilation of unfinished spaces and any potential issues. These include, but are not limited to, attics, crawlspaces, foundation areas, exhaust systems.
The exterior of your home is more than just how it looks. You also want to make sure it is protecting you against the elements. The exterior part of the home inspection will include siding, exterior doors, flashing & trim, windows, walkways, stairs, drainage, patios & decks, driveways.
The foundation is just that, the foundation. Without a quality foundation, it all falls apart. Our inspectors will look for foundation movement, cracks, structural concerns, and any indications of water penetration.
During the summer months, you don’t want to be stuck without cooling. That is why our home inspector will look at the condition of the properties cooling system. They will locate the thermostat, energy source and will identify the type of cooling system you have.
Similar to the cooling systems, the heating systems are also important. Especially when the temperature drops on those cold winter nights. So we will also check on the condition of the heating system, location of the thermostat, energy source, and identify heating system.
You know the danger of fire and smoke. That is why we inspect the visible portions of the fireplace & chimneys, lintels, damper doors, clean-out doors, and frames.
Aside from the fireplace, issues with your electrical system are atop the main sources for house fires, and other issues. Our home inspections include the service drop. (This is where the electrical company connects to your property.) As well as the conductors, service head and mast, electrical main, panel-boards, ground switches, outlets, and the presence of smoke alarms, and carbon monoxide detectors.
Water damage is almost always a concern when buying homes. That is why plumbing tends to get the most attention. Our inspector will check the main water & fuel supply shut-off valves, water heater, toilets, interior water supply, sinks, showers, bath-tubs, drains, as well as waste, and ventilation systems.
The rest of the house falls under this category. This typically includes doors, windows, ceilings, walls, floors, stairs, railings, garage doors, and openers.
