Size adjustments apply to complete home inspections, new-home warranty inspections and whole-home thermal surveys. Focused investigations and specialist drone services follow their stated time limits or individual quotations. Standard house pricing includes one conventional basement. Unusually large or complex basements, extensive additions, multiple buildings and other non-standard arrangements may require a custom quote.
An additional-unit inspection covers accessible physical conditions. It does not certify that a rental unit is legal, registered, code-compliant or suitable for occupancy.
