Buyers Inspections
Buying a home is one of the biggest investments you will ever make. Before you buy, you should have a home inspection to avoid potentially costly repairs that would otherwise go undetected until they become even more costly. This is our typical home inspection that catches common defects so you understand the investment you’re making.
Pre-Listing Inspections
Some homeowners want to make repairs to their house before they put it on the market and will make repairs using their inspection report as a baseline reference. Please understand that most buyers will still want to perform their own inspection even if the seller has already had an inspection done.
Warranty Inspections
Just because your home is new, doesn’t mean it is defect-free. At your 11-month mark, this may be your last chance to take advantage of your warranty!
Thermal Imaging
The purpose of an infrared scan is to find issues that may not be visible to the naked eye and catch them before they become a major problem. With the use of our infrared camera, we can help identify moisture, insulation, electrical, HVAC issues, and more.
Pre-Drywall Inspections
It becomes increasingly difficult to inspect these important parts of your home when the drywall is installed, which means it's imperative to get a preemptive inspection.
Pre-Pour Inspections
Once the foundation is poured, many important elements are hidden forever. That’s why getting a pre-pour inspection is so important—it ensures everything is properly installed before it’s sealed beneath concrete.
Pool Inspections
We'll inspect your pool thoroughly–from filters and pumps to plumbing and heaters–to identify any issues and provide appropriate recommendations.
Septic Inspections
Having your septic tank inspected can save you thousands of dollars from major septic repairs if issues are not caught early on.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Are your sinks and tubs emptying too slowly? We use a special camera to scope the sewer line to visualize any blockages that are interfering with the plumbing system’s proper drainage. Finding and addressing such problems now can head off catastrophic and expensive repairs later.
The Best Modern Report in the Industry
The Best Modern Report in the Industry
While Smith Inspections encourages our clients to walk through the home with us, we understand that you may be too busy, and may not have time to do so.
Regardless of whether or not you attend the inspection, we will compile a comprehensive Spectora report, which includes all of the information you need to determine the condition of the home.
We will deliver our report within 24 hours of the conclusion of your home inspection, so that you can quickly access a full overview of our findings – and discuss them with us and your agent.

Earl Tuttle
Cody inspected my home today that I am about to final close on. I found him extremely professional, concise and objective about his role, professional observations, and commitment to his client. He was not swayed by the previous owner’s input but listened appropriately to his input, as he was there as well as myself and was given time to verbalize his input about the house and its history. Cody was honest, forthright and very much concerned about my investment. Thank you sir. I would and will use him again if and when the time manifests itself once again. Kudos to Cody. - 6/05/2025read moreread lessAshley Rivas

Cody inspected our home before we closed and found many things that we missed on our initial walk through. He was able to fit us in his schedule on short notice and was early for our appointment.

5 Stars – Highly Recommend! We recently hired Cody for a home inspection, and we couldn’t be more impressed. The inspector provided a detailed and thorough report that covered every aspect of the property. After the inspection, he took the time to go over the findings with us, patiently answering all of our questions and ensuring we understood the implications. His keen eye and expertise uncovered hidden structural issues that could have cost us significant time and money down the road. Thanks to his diligence, we were able to make an informed decision and avoid a potentially costly mistake. If you’re looking for an inspector who is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely has your best interests in mind, Cody is the one to call. We highly recommend his services! We will be using him for next house! - 11/24/2024read moreread lessLarry Gollaher

Smith Inspection was extremely professional and competent in sifting out any hidden or open faults in your new house. He came in early on a holiday, Memorial day & was patient for the home company to open and provide door access an hour later. He spent about 4 hrs inspecting from roof top to foundation and gave a very detailed reports and recommendations in some cases. His fee is very reasonable too. Give him a try & see what I mean. - 5/28/2024read moreread lessAdrianam1994 m

Thank you Cody for your outstanding work and great customer service.. - 12/27/2023read moreread lessBrent
I had a great experience with Smith Inspections. Cody was friendly, thorough and even went out of his way to check the attic on a separate trip because the owners left boxes blocking the access that had to be moved. Their pricing is also very reasonable compared to others we called. - 10/10/2023read moreread lessMichele Wright
As a realtor, I'm always looking for inspectors that can meet our deadlines, be informative and thorough for my clients and be responsive with the reports that aid in our negotiations. Cody met and surpassed those needs so much that I even used him for my own personal property purchase! I absolutely will recommend him for my future clients' needs. - 6/06/2023read moreread lessBrandi Leistikow

Very professional with the ability to make me feel like I was the only customer he had! He took the time to answer any and all of my questions thoroughly! I will recommend him to everyone. - 5/15/2023read moreread lessCindy Gonzalez
Cody Smith was on time, after Ibhad to reschedule twice in the past few weeks, and he explained what he would be doing in detail, executed it and asked questions to me and allowed me to ask him questions also, on the best way to handle a couple of things that seemed intense to me. But after listening to his thoughts amd explanation, it took the concern and weight off my shoulders. On a side note, when asked, he gave us information for a couple of other companies for possible service I could call concerning a much needed task in my home. That was so kind of him! We had our report within a short amount of time and on the same day. A family member was also sent the same report as we will be collaborating the repairs in the future together. That was much appreciated. I cannot say enough about Cody Smith. He did exactly what he said he would do and without hesitation. Thank you Cody and Smith Inspection and Appraisal for your gracious and professionalism while inspecting my home today. I will be referring you in the future! - 2/23/2023read moreread lessMisty Day-Smith

We needed our inspection done quickly and Cody was able to schedule us within a day of calling. We highly recommend Smith Inspections to anyone needing a home inspection done. Thank you Cody! - 2/23/2023read moreread less
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. Home inspections are designed to protect the buyer, by revealing problems they might not have noticed otherwise.
How much does a home inspection cost?
Our home inspections start at $350. The cost will vary based on the square footage of the home, the age of the home, and location of the home. Call, text, or email us for a quote today!
How long does a home inspection take?
Home inspections generally take 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).
Should I attend the inspection?
Although it is not necessary, we do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but we always encourage you to attend!
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
What Else Can We Answer?
