Clear, impartial home inspections for buyers and sellers
About us
Truehome Inspections inspects houses for people who are buying and for people who are selling. We look at the roof, the structure, the plumbing, the electrics and the heating, room by room, and we explain what we see in a clear report with photographs. We work for the client who hires us and have no interest in the sale or in any repair that follows.
A home inspection is a careful look at what can be seen and reached on the day, so we are open about what it covers and what it does not. We walk through the house with you if you wish, point out what matters and what is routine, and send a report in plain words that a first-time buyer can follow. Our aim is that you decide with the facts in front of you.
Our vision
We want everyone who buys or sells a home to understand its condition before they commit.
Our mission
Our mission is to inspect homes carefully and report on them impartially, in plain words that help clients make their own decisions.
Our values
Independence
We work for the client who hires us and keep our advice free of any interest in the sale or the repair.
Honesty about limits
We say clearly what an inspection can see and what it cannot, so no one expects more than it can deliver.
Plain language
We explain every finding in words a first-time buyer can follow, without jargon or alarm.
Thoroughness
We work through the house in the same order every time, so each visit is careful and consistent.
Our services
Buyer's home inspections
A full inspection of a house you plan to buy, covering the roof, structure, plumbing, electrics and heating, with a report you can use before you commit.
Seller's pre-listing inspections
An inspection before you list, so you know the condition of your house and can answer buyers' questions early.
Roof and exterior
A look at the roof covering, gutters, walls, windows and doors, from the ground and from safe access points.
Structure and foundations
Checks of the visible structure for signs of movement, damp and wear, from the foundations to the roof space.
Plumbing, electrics and heating
A visual check of the pipework, taps, fuse board or panel, visible wiring and the heating system, with notes on age and condition.
New-build snagging
A room-by-room check of new homes for unfinished work and defects before you complete or move in.
Reports and walkthroughs
A report with photographs, plus a call or a visit to talk through what each finding means.
Who we serve
We work with people buying a home who want to know its condition before they commit, and with first-time buyers who are meeting a house's pipes, wiring and roof as a worry rather than a feature. Sellers hire us to inspect before listing, so there are fewer surprises once a buyer's own inspection begins. Buyers of new homes use us to check the finishing, and landlords and investors use us to review a property before they buy. Agents, lawyers and brokers recommend us to clients who ask for an independent view.
Why choose us
Independent of the sale
We work only for the person who hires us and have no stake in whether a sale goes ahead.
A report you can follow
Our reports put each finding in plain words with photographs and say how urgent it is.
Clear about scope
We explain before we start what the inspection covers and what it cannot see, so there are no false expectations.
Time for your questions
We talk through the findings after the visit, so you understand what each one means for your decision.
How we work
You tell us about the house
We ask about the property, its age and your concerns, and agree the date, the scope and who will let us in.
We inspect room by room
We work through the roof, exterior, structure, plumbing, electrics and heating in the same order every time, taking photographs as we go.
You receive a plain report
We send a report that sets out what we saw, how important each finding is and what a specialist may need to look at.
We talk it through
We go through the report with you by phone or in person and answer your questions.
