Explore Our Inspection Service Offerings

From cutting edge technology to quick report delivery, we have the inspection services and delivery infrastructure to support our clients and agents.

Thermal Imaging

Thermal imaging adds real value to a home inspection by revealing problems that can’t be seen with the naked eye. An infrared camera helps identify hidden moisture intrusion, missing or damaged insulation, electrical hot spots, and air leaks—all without invasive testing or damage to the home.

Spectora Software

Utilizing Spectora Reporting Software, which is the industry leader, allows for vivid phots of issues as well as videos.

Spectora also has a convenient Repair Request Builder for Real Estate Agents which saves time in negotiating repairs.

Mold Inspections

SDM Home Inspections provides complete Mold Inspection services with support of an EMLAP/IHLAP certified laboratory for sample processing.

We offer both air and surface sampling. 

48 Hour Report Delivery

In a real estate transaction every day counts! Your report will be delivered via email within 48 business hours of your inspection.

What inspection services do you offer?

I offer:

  • Whole House: Complete home inspections to InterNACHI standards.

  • Mold: IAC2 Certified Mold Inspections.

  • Thermal Imaging: Identify energy loss or water intrusion.

Yes! It is YOUR Inspection, and if you would like to shadow me and ask questions along the way, I am happy to oblige. You will learn a great deal about your new home in the process.

Absolutely NOT! A home inspection is simply a snapshot in time, documenting a home’s condition.  ALL homes have issues or conditions that could be corrected. I simply point these conditions out to my clients.

During every inspection, I find minor issues that it would be easier to repair in 1 minute than to report. However, California Business and Professional Code disallows repairs by inspectors. There is never a conflict of interest with a fully independent inspection. 

  • Clear personal belongings near the attic access

  • Ensure pets are secured

  • Note any specific concerns 

  • Allow plenty of time for your post-inspection walk-through

Payment for service is appreciated at the time of inspection. I accept cash, check, credit/debit card and most AP-based payment methods (Zelle, Venmo, PayPal).

Escrow billing is available with a 20% surcharge.
