The home inspection is a service conducted to assess the condition of a home or property. Its primary goal is to identify the property's Safety, Function and Structure, and any areas that need attention. The home inspection will give a buyer an idea of any problems and help with solutions. A professionally qualified and licensed home inspector performs the inspection.
The home inspection covers structural elements such as safety, function, and structure including the foundation, basement, walls, doors, windows, ceiling, attic, roof, and the major systems, including the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems. The home inspector will look for health and safety hazards and the current conditions of the home.
The only difference between a buyer inspection and a seller inspection is who the inspection is for. The inspector is still focused on the safety, function and structure of the home and conveying the proper information. Pre-listing Inspections eliminate surprises that make buyers upset. That's why having your own inspection done now makes more sense.

Peter is awesome! He's come out to inspect two commercial buildings that we considered purchasing. He's thorough and thoughtful, makes sure he gets video of everything so that you have it for contractors, and goes over it all with you after inspection.

In looking for a building for our business we have now been helped by Buss inspections twice. The team came out to both buildings and did such thorough, detail oriented work. It really helped put our minds at ease as first time building buyers to have these guys on our team. The video walkthroughs provided after the inspection are super valuable for reviewing and for hiring contractors. If you’re buying any kind of property you need these guys on your team!

Pete was very thorough in his inspection and took the time to walk us through the house and property showing us the issues he found. We had his report the next day and it was easy to understand his findings. I strongly recommend Buss Inspection Services

We had Buss inspect a home we are purchasing and we are very happy with the service he provided. Peter really took his time to provide an extremely thorough inspection of all aspects of the home. He noticed several items that we clearly missed and likely would have overlooked without him taking his time and making sure we were confident the entire house was inspected. Peter explained everything he notice along the way and gave us tips and pointers on how to handle some of the concerning items he found. We didn't have many issues that needed to be addressed with the current owners but by the

Mr Buss is an incredible man. Not only did he do an excellent job when we purchased our house 4 years ago, but all these years later he still openly spends time answering questions about the house and navigating a home sale ! Not only is his expertise in the field clear, but his commitment to his clients remains unwavering despite it being so far after the purchase. Given the recent experience all these years later I would choose Mr Buss's services every time and hope you do to !

Pete saved us from having few different headaches. We were so excited to buy a home, that we almost made a mistakes. After our inspection for our first home possibility, we were happy to have an honest inspector. He saved us from making an extremely costly decision after he found some flaws in the home we were looking at. Things I wouldn't have even thought of.
We were going in too excited to be fair.
Some of the issues we would have had, would've been VERY expensive to repair. Even though we loved the home at the time, I'm so glad we kept looking for other homes after the inspection

I have hired Buss Inspections 2 times in the last 14 years. Pete did an excellent evaluation on both properties. With my most recent inspection in June 2019, Pete uncovered structural damage that was not very apparent in the basement. His discovery showed that some very expensive structural repairs would be needed on the property. A very thorough inspection was done and saved me from completing the purchase. If I had gone forward with this purchase, I would have had to shell out a ton of money to eliminate the structure from all the wood rot caused by the water seepage over a long period of time

I must say this was a big waste of money. Very obvious issues have costed me a lot of money in repairs. Most recent was about 5 gallons of water poured into my bathroom from the exhaust fan. I go into the attic and see the exhaust tubing at atleast an upward 4ft pitch and the end of it just hanging by a hook not even vented to the outside of the house. This costed me $300 to repair and should've been caught at inspection. I wouldn't recommend to anyone

When it comes to buying a home, it's one of the largest purchases you will ever make, and I would suggest getting a GOOD home inspection. I was referred to Buss Inspection Services, and in all honesty, the price was a little higher than the competition - but you get what you pay for. My inspection was SO detailed. I was invited to follow along and see where everything was, and to make sure I was aware of everything. In addition to learning a LOT about the house and any changes I may need to make - I received a very detailed report, as well as a link to VIDEO walkthrough of the home, inside
