Buying a house is a wild ride. The market moves fast, the heat is brutal on foundations, and if you aren’t careful, that “dream home” can turn into a money pit faster than you can say “South Congress.” At Screamin Eagle Inspections, we provide the property inspection services that give you the actual truth about a building. We are not here to check boxes and hand you a boring PDF. We’re going to crawl to your attic, drone over the roof, and show you what is happening behind the drywall. You need a professional property inspection whether you are a first time homebuyer or perhaps an experienced property investor who looks at the home as being a living system. We bring an “eye of a master electrician” and a “brain of a certified home inspector” to every job. We find problems beyond that, though. We teach you how your home works.
You live in your house. It is also probably the largest check you have ever written. Our residential property inspection services prove that the check is worth it. We look at the “bones” of the home, the framework, the roof, the plumbing, the HVAC, and everything is working as it should. We have “shifty” soil here in Austin. It’s dry as a bone one day and a swamp the next. This is why we do structural property inspection services, for example, for those little cracks in the brickwork or those doors that just won’t close right. Such are the “whispers” of a foundation problem. Our home property inspection services identify these issues before they become a five-figure repair bill.
When you buy or lease a warehouse, an office or a retail shop, the stakes are even greater. Leaks in a commercial roof or an old electrical panel can shut down your business for weeks. We design our commercial property inspection services around your need for the facts.
We look at the heavy-duty stuff:
If you’re in the middle of a deal, you are likely in your “option period.” This is the only time you have to really dig into the house. A real estate property inspection services is your leverage. When we find a double-tapped breaker or a water heater that’s ten years past its prime, you can take that info back to the seller. We specialize in building inspection services that realtors and buyers can rely on. We don’t sugarcoat things. If the roof is reaching the end of its life, we’ll show you the drone footage to prove it. We want you to walk into your closing feeling confident, not nervous.
Houses deal with a lot: termites, heat, and shifting ground. We do a structural property inspection. We check load-bearing walls, roof trusses, and crawlspaces. If it’s wood rot or a sagging beam, we will find it. We also hold a Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) License. This means we are looking beyond the wood. We want things that eat the wood. Termite problems are a “when, not if” issue in Texas. Only a structural check and bug check can give a true picture of the home health.
If you own rental property in Austin, you know that tenants don’t always report the small stuff. A leaky sink can turn into a rotten floorboard in a few months. Our rental property inspection services help landlords keep their units in top shape. It’s the best way to protect your investment and avoid “surprise” repairs between leases.
The city experiences hail, wind and the odd freeze. A property damage inspection service is required after an event that damages your house. We use our FAA Drone Pilot License to get a bird’s-eye view of your roof without having to climb up in dangerous conditions. We can see hail dents and missing shingles that you’d never spot from the ground. This report is exactly what you need when you’re talking to your insurance company.
Maybe you aren’t buying or selling. Maybe you’ve lived in your house for ten years and you just want to know how it’s holding up. Property condition inspection services are a great “health checkup” for your home. We find small leaks or frayed wires before they cause an emergency. We also offer property maintenance inspection services for long-term owners. This is about prevention. We’ll show you how to save energy, where to change your filters, and how to keep your electrical system safe. It’s about keeping your home efficient and safe for the long haul.
Homeowners and buyers rely on our professional inspection services for accurate assessments and honest recommendations. Our clients appreciate the thoroughness of our inspections and the clarity of the reports we provide.
