Protect Yourself With a Home Inspection

What is a "Home Inspection?"

Our professional home inspection will cover all of the important aspects of your home so you know if your pending home purchase is a sound investment. 

A home inspection is a visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a home.  We inspect the home inside and out and get into those places you don't necessarily look at when you are making your buying decision - roofs, attics, crawlspaces and everything in between.

If you are thinking of buying a house, co-op or condominium, you should have it properly inspected before the final purchase by an experienced and impartial professional home inspector.

That's us at JW Inspection Services of MI!  Let us give you piece of mind in our purchase or save you the headache of purchasing a money pit.

Spalling Bricks are sometimes found in a home inspection and are caused by moisture leaking in the chimney from a broken chimney cap.
