You Deserve to Know Exactly What You're Buying
Buying a home in Houston, TX is exciting, but hidden foundation issues, outdated electrical, or a failing HVAC system can turn your dream into a financial nightmare. You shouldn’t have to guess what problems are lurking beneath the surface.
That’s where we come in. At The Inspection Company, we don’t just check boxes—we uncover the truth and explain it clearly in the language you’re most comfortable with. Our licensed professional inspectors have extensive experience navigating Houston’s unique challenges (foundation shifts, humidity issues, older infrastructure), giving you the complete picture before you’re committed.
What sets us apart: our team is built on an education-first philosophy. We don’t just hand you a technical report, we don’t try to scare you, we teach you about your investment in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, or other languages. We coordinate our inspections around YOUR schedule so you can attend the guided property tour at the end, where we show you exactly what we found and what it means for you.

-
(WDI) Termite Inspection $125
We provide Termite/WDI inspections through licensed treatment companies who come out at the same time as our home inspection. This helps clients avoid paying a home inspector for their inspection then having to pay a treatment company to come out and perform a second inspection. To create a seamless process, we coordinate everything so you don't have to. The service starts at $125 and could increase based on the size and age of the house.
-
Sewer Scope $300
We provide camera inspections of main sewer lines. We identify blockages, root intrusion, pipe damage & other costly issues before you buy. If the house you are considering buying is over 30 years old, this service could help you avoid expensive surprises after closing.
Do I need a home inspection if the house is new or recently renovated?
Absolutely. New construction can have installation errors, and renovations can hide existing problems. We’ve found foundation issues in brand-new builds and electrical hazards behind fresh drywall. Even in new homes, builders sometimes cut corners or make mistakes.
How long does a home inspection take?
Most inspections take 2-4 hours depending on the size and age of the home. We don’t rush. Thoroughness matters more than speed. When you schedule, we’ll give you an accurate timeframe and coordinate timing so you can be there at the end for your guided property tour.
Should I attend the inspection?
Yes! We strongly encourage it. At the end of your inspection, we conduct a guided property tour where we walk you through everything we found. We’ll show you the actual issues and explain what they mean for your investment. This is your chance to ask questions and truly understand the home you’re considering buying.
What if you find major problems?
That’s exactly why you hired us. If we discover significant issues, you have options: negotiate with the seller for repairs or a price reduction, walk away during your option period, or move forward knowing what you’re getting into. Our same-day report gives you time to make the best decision for your situation. We’re here to empower you, not scare you, but you deserve to know the truth.
What's included in your home inspection?
We follow TREC Standards of Practice and inspect all major systems: foundation, roof, exterior/interior, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, appliances, and safety features. We also offer add-on services like pool/spa inspections, sprinkler system checks, termite/WDI inspections (coordinated through licensed treatment companies), and sewer scope camera inspections. When you get your free quote, we’ll discuss which services make sense for your specific property.
Do you offer inspections in languages other than English?
Yes! We serve Houston’s diverse communities with inspections and reports available in English, Spanish, Vietnamese and other languages.
