Pricing Questions, Answered

How do I pay for the inspection?
Payment is simple and can be made online via credit card after you receive your inspection agreement. We also accept payment through escrow for your convenience.
How should I prepare my property for the inspection?
A prepared property helps us conduct the most thorough inspection possible. The key steps are ensuring all utilities (water, gas, electric) are active and providing clear access to areas like the attic, crawlspace, and electrical panel. For a complete checklist, please see our detailed guide: How to Prepare for Your Home Inspection.
Are there any hidden fees or travel charges?
Absolutely not. Our pricing is transparent. The price you are quoted is the price you pay. There are no travel fees for inspections conducted within our primary Santa Barbara County service area.
Why are services like sewer scopes and mold testing priced as add-ons?
We price these services separately so you only pay for what you need. While we highly recommend a sewer scope for older homes, a newer property may not require one. This à la carte approach ensures fair and customized pricing for every client.
Do you offer any discounts?
Yes, we offer bundled savings when you combine a home inspection with add-on services like a sewer scope or mold testing. Our interactive calculator automatically shows you the best available price.
