Because there are many inexperienced Home Inspectors in Arizona, choosing the right Home Inspector is essential. Here are a few tips:
- Ask many questions - if the person doesn't seem to want to answer your questions, call Homewerx! We'll be happy to take the time to answer your questions thoroughly!
- How long has the company been in business? Homewerx has been proudly serving Arizona since 1999!
- What are the Inspectors qualifications? Homewerx only hires quality Inspectors with extensive construction backgrounds.
- Are the company AND Inspector properly licensed? Arizona requires both Inspectors and Inspection Firms to be registered with the Board of Technical Registration. Homewerx meets or exceeds all state requirements.
- Are ALL of the company's Home Inspectors ASHI® Members or Candidates? Homewerx requires all Inspectors to be an ASHI® Member or Candidate...no exceptions!
- Is the company and/or Inspector adequately insured? It is important that the company and/or Inspector has E&O Insurance, General Liability Insurance AND Workman's Comp. All of these insurance policies cover different situations and the company is not fully insured without all 3 types. While a bond meets the legal requirement, good inspection companies go above and beyond. Rest assured that Homewerx is FULLY insured for your protection.
- Does the company and/or Inspector offer a written guarantee? If the company does not stand behind their work, don't hire them. Homewerx offers several guarantees to our Clients!
- What type of report will I get and when will I get it? Many companies still use a checklist report and they give you a carbon copy at the end of the inspection. Assuming you can even read the Inspector's writing, this type of report usually gives you very little information about the property. Some of these checklist reports do not even meet the State's minimum reporting requirements. At Homewerx, we provide an easy-to-read narrative report with color photos. The report is delivered within 24 hours of the inspection (usually by email, but that is up to the Client!).
