--- title: Townhouse Inspection --- Certainty you’re getting the townhouse you’re paying for # The Townhouse Inspection Experts The greatest threat to a homebuyer’s financial investment is the unknown. Certainty comes from working with a quality inspector who understands the unique nature of townhomes as well as the breadth of conditions that may be present. Home-Probe inspects more than 500 townhomes every year. We’ve built a database with vital information about the community. That means your inspector has context from the townhomes we’ve inspected in the past to inform your inspection. A Home-Probe certified inspector will scrutinize the property so you don’t have to.

We follow the standards set by ASHI, the American Society of Home Inspectors. We inspect all the components where we can identify where yours begins and the neighbor’s ends. ### Townhome Database Get the benefit of all of our experience inspecting units in your community. We’ve built a database where we collect, store and share key information so your inspector has even more context when evaluating your townhome. ### Roof We introduced drones into our roof inspections in 2015, specifically to solve the problem of the height and density of townhouses when inspecting the roof. Whether we walk the roof or fly our drone, you’re guaranteed an image of the shingles from above the roof and its estimated age and life expectancy. ### Structure We’ll reach all four corners of your foundation or tell you why we couldn’t and help clarify the potential risk. Your inspector also carries a ladder to access the attic. ### Plumbing Water is run at each fixture for as long as possible. If there’s a leak, we want to recreate it. ### Exterior Windows, siding, decks and balconies are important in townhomes and included in your inspection (when not shared by the community.) ### Interior With flashlight in tow, your inspector will examine the walls, ceilings, floors, doors and windows. All lights and built-in appliances will be tested. ### Electrical Every accessible outlet will be tested. We remove the cover of the electrical panel and inspect all visible wiring. We’ll report on safety concerns such as grounding, GFCI and AFCI. ### Heating/Air (HVAC) Every supply and return is tested to ensure the system is working throughout the entire townhome. We’ll also provide the age and life expectancy of your systems as well as the refrigerant type. ### Cost Estimates for Repair Your report will include a range of cost estimates for significant repair items to give you a more clear picture of your bottom line. ### Homeowners Manual Because your townhome will change over time, your inspection report will both identify potential issues to address now and watch over time. It will prove equally crucial as a reference manual throughout home ownership.
