What’s Included (and Why It Matters)
Every Coastal Shield Home inspection follows the InterNACHI Standards of Practice—the recognized benchmark in our industry. But experience tells us that every home has its own story. That’s why we don’t just check boxes: we interpret findings, connect the dots, and highlight details that can make or break a deal. Our clients—buyers, sellers, and realtors alike—trust us for insights that provide true clarity, not confusion.
- Roof & Attic: covering shingles, flashing, insulation, and ventilation performance
- Exterior: siding, stucco, decks, balconies, doors, and windows
- Structure: foundation, crawlspace, posts, moisture intrusion & drainage flow
- Electrical: service, panels, grounding/bonding, GFCI & AFCI safety devices
- Plumbing: supply, waste/vents, fixtures, water heater & visible piping. For a deeper dive, see our guide to escrow plumbing inspections.
- HVAC: heating, cooling, ductwork & filtration
- Interior: kitchens, bathrooms, laundry & all major living areas
- Site: grading, retaining walls, pathways & overall safety concerns
We document everything with clear photos and plain-English notes, flagging Safety, Major Defect, and Maintenance items. The result: an inspection report that goes deeper than a checklist—helping you protect your investment, avoid surprises, and move forward with confidence.
