More Than Just Inspectors

Our team of experts include Home Inspectors and Professional Engineers that can provide a higher level of expertise than other companies. We hire the experts that other home inspection companies refer to when questions come up that require the advanced skill, training, and expertise of a licensed Structural Engineer.

Commitment to Education

All of our Home Inspectors are licensed Home Inspectors and Certified Professional Inspectors with the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI). Each year our home inspectors complete a minimum of 15 hours of continuing education in order to stay abreast of the latest technologies available to home inspectors. In addition, our Professional Engineers complete 15 hours of training each year and stay up to date on the latest engineering code changes.

Comprehensive Home Inspection Throughout
​Ohio & North Carolina

The standard home inspection includes an assessment of every major system in the home including the exterior, roof, attic, insulation, ventilation, plumbing, mechanical systems, heating/cooling, electrical, and foundation. Our home inspectors utilize advanced equipment including a thermal imaging camera and moisture meter to detect areas of the home where hot/cold air or moisture can penetrate from the outside.

Detailed Home Inspection Report

We use state of the art home inspection software that generates a type-written report with photos included. Many other home inspectors use a handwritten checklist report that does not include photos. See a copy of our home inspection report.

Additional Home Inspection & Testing Services

Sewer Scope
​We utilize a sewer scope camera to televise your sanitary lateral from the basement to the sewer main looking for blockages or broken pipes which can be costly to repair.

Foundation Certification​
Our licensed Structural Engineers can provide an in-depth foundation evaluation and provide repair recommendations or a structural certification of your foundation.

Termite Inspection
​All of our inspectors are licensed wood destroying organism (WDO) inspectors and can identify signs of costly termite infestations which can be lurking behind your walls.

Radon Testing
​High radon levels have been linked to lung cancer and should be tested during a real estate transaction. We are licensed and utilize a continuous radon monitor to detect this gas.

Thermal Imaging
​We have high tech equipment that can be used to pin point areas of moisture or cold/hot air intrusion and can detect overheating in the electrical system and circuit breakers.

Mold Testing
​Our inspectors are trained to evaluate the home for dangerous levels of mold. We utilize specialized equipment to test airborne mold levels to ensure your family is safe.

How the Home Inspection Process Works

Depending on the size of your home, inspections typically last between 3 and 4 hours. We will document and photograph defects and the general condition in a thorough, easy to understand, home inspection report. The report will be emailed within 1-2 days after the inspection. After inspection is complete, we will walk you through the property pointing out the critical areas identified in the report.

Quality Home Inspection at an Affordable Price

To us, quality means taking time to carefully inspect all aspects of the home. In addition, a quality home inspector will take the time to describe these finding to their client. At CAI, our home inspectors don't rush! Our average home inspection lasts between 3 and 4 hours. We are certain that you won't find a more thorough home inspector at a lower cost...that is the VALUE of a CAI home inspection.
