Home Inspection
We inspect the major systems of the house, including the roof, exterior, structure, electrical, heating, cooling, plumbing, insulation, and interior. We also test all standard appliances. Our goal is to identify any existing major problems so a potential buyer can make an informed decision.
​
Our inspectors carry multiple licenses and certifications to ensure we can provide the best service and remain up to date with home building techniques. These include certifications by the American Society of Home Inspectors, as well as licensure in Maryland and Virginia. To view our individual certifications, click here.
Radon Testing
Radon is a carcinogenic, radioactive gas. It is unable to be seen, smelled, or tasted. The source of radon is naturally occurring and is produced as a daughter product of radioactive decay associated with radium and uranium deposits. It can migrate into structures via basements, crawl spaces, cracks in foundation slabs, and/or preferential pathways created by utility perforations in slab on grade structures. The EPA’s recommended action level is four picocuries per liter (or 4 pCi/L).
​
Home Sweet Home Inspections has been certified by the National Radon Safety Board (NRSB) to the highest levels. These include having a Radon Measurement Specialist, as well as having an Accredited Radon Laboratory.
Mold and Indoor Air Quality Testing
Many types of mold are toxic and others can be triggers of allergic reactions. Certain types of mold in high enough quantities can be extremely hazardous to the health of the occupants of a contaminated home. Home Sweet Home Inspections is certified to provide indoor air sampling to test for the presence of mold in a home. We are also able to collect samples from specific locations to test for the presence of mold and determine specific types. Home Sweet Home Inspections is certified for mold testing through the Professional Mold Inspection Institute. Please call for pricing.
