InterNACHI Honor Guarantee

unparalleled Commitment
Committed to you; no more than one inspection a day.
“Many home inspectors perform two and even three home inspections a day. I believe that is too many – way too many. Spending less than three or more hours on-site on a home during the actual inspection is what I call a drive-by inspection. You simply cannot perform a thorough inspection in less time. Further, I believe in spending added time fine-tuning the inspection report, making it just right for the home buyer. This takes time. As such:
I pledge to only perform one inspection a day, giving the necessary time to perform the inspection, work with the prospective home buyer, and fine tune the inspection report.”
At Total Picture Home Inspections our inspector abides strictly to the Standards of Practice (SOP) as they are stated by both InterNACHI and the Commonwealth of Virginia. During our home inspection services, we provide a thorough walk-through of the home as we search for any defects and assess the condition of visible and safely accessible areas, including the:
