($150 per hour outside of a home inspection)
A well flow test will help determine if there is a problem with the well or its associated equipment such as the pump and storage tank that requires further evaluation or repair by a professional well contractor. If you have a private well it is recommended you consider a well flow test. Check with your mortgage company, as this test may be required.
Water Quality Testing - $125 Bacteria only / $225 FHA
If you have a property or are purchasing a property that has a private well supplying water to the house, we suggest that you have testing done to determine the quality of the water. We will draw the water samples and deliver them to a qualified, approved laboratory for testing. We can also test for Lead, Copper, Nitrates, POC/VOC, and more. Ask us for a quote, prices vary by lab fees.
Interior Chimney Inspections - $250 with inspection $275 without
An inspection of the interior of the chimney liner, sometimes called a Level 2 chimney inspection, is recommended anytime a house with a wood burning appliance is sold. We recommend this service for all fireplace chimneys and at times other chimneys too. Additional chimney liners inspected on the same visit are $150 each.
Sewer Scope Inspections - $175
Many are unaware that the drain that runs under the house and front yard is the responsibility of the homeowner. Repairs to this can be thousands of dollars and required digging up the yard or basement. Sewer Scoping is the process of running a camera through the drain to look for cracks, tree roots, damaged sections, or other defects. All homes with a sewer drain should have this inspected as part of their home inspection.

We are happy to return and inspect anything that has been repaired as a result of our initial inspection. A list of what is to be inspected must be provided prior to the visit.
Indoor Air Quality Test starting at $345
We can test the quality of the air in your home as it compares to air outside the home. Mold, pollen, and other allergens can be discovered. Three tests are included, additional test at $100 each.
Mold Assessment - Starting at $299
Mold, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, can be found everywhere, and is generally not a problem, unless it is growing indoors. Controlling mold means controlling moisture. In New York, before mold can be removed, and assessor needs to evaluate the work to be done, and if possible, determine the underlying cause to be corrected. The assessor working with the abatement company will determine if the mold was effectively removed and the cause corrected.
