Our quality home inspection services uncover safety risks and hidden issues in any property. We follow ASHI Standard of Practice (SOP) and state regulations in New York and Connecticut, providing clear, detailed reports so you’ll know exactly what you’re buying before you close.
We leave no stone unturned. Our certified home inspectors in NY and CT examine:
Structural components: foundation, floors, walls, ceilings, roof.
Exterior Elements: Doors, decks, porches, siding, trim, eaves, flashing, grading, drainage, and walkways.
A pre-offer walk through consultation gives you the ability to discover issues with the home that make you hesitant to move forward with the purchase. Especially if you’re buying a home “as is,” you’ll want to know, in no uncertain terms, exactly what shape the home is in prior to your offer.
Home inspections are visual process where all of the items within the home are tested and/or operated to verify proper operation or installation. Doors and windows are opened and closed, roofing materials inspected, air-conditioning and heating systems operated. I will fill the sinks and tub(s), run the shower(s), and flush the toilets. All the while making notes on the condition and operation of the components tested. Upon completion a report will be distributed to you.
New construction consultations are conducted after construction is finished but before your final walkthrough with the builder’s representative. It’s important to check that utilities (gas, water, and electric) are on, either by you or according to the builder’s policy. Schedule the inspection a day or two before your final walkthrough to ensure that nearly all last-minute tasks are completed. After the inspection, we will give you a comprehensive report detailing all findings.
Pre-listing consultations are crucial for homeowners who may not fully understand their home’s actual condition. Often, sales fall through because buyers are surprised by the home’s “functional condition,” which might look good but have hidden technical, safety, or functional issues. Inspecting the home before listing it helps identify these problems, allowing you to decide whether to fix them or just disclose them to potential buyers. Fixing these issues typically helps close the sale, although financial constraints might lead some owners to opt out of making repairs.
Longs GCS Corp. Home Inspections Service can perform yearly maintenance inspections for your home to find defects early and save you time and money by preventing small repairs from becoming expensive large repairs. By having a preventative maintenance inspection performed yearly, your repair costs will drop from year to year. There will most likely always be repairs to be made, this is a part of being a homeowner but don’t let a small repair become bigger. Here is a example. One loose or missing roof shingle repair cost may be around 100.00 if repaired quickly. If you let it go the wood will rot and water will leak into the house creating many repairs such as wall repairs, mold and structure defects. In a home, very few things are maintenance free. While it is a bitter pill for most homeowners to swallow, the fact is that preventative maintenance, with all the time and money it consumes, is still far more cost effective than the crisis management approach of waiting until something breaks and then scrambling to have it repaired. Preventative maintenance can avoid repairs, extend the life expectancy of many components and in some cases, reduce energy consumption.
