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.

We needed someone right away and he came out the very next day. His inspection results were very thorough and the turn around time was super fast. He explained everything and was an absolute professional to work with. It was an awesome experience and we would definitely hire them again.
