Many clients often attend the last half hour of the inspection, and some attend the entire inspection to ask questions, but you may prefer to leave the inspection to us and take advantage of our easy online report retrieval. It’s up to you. A thorough home inspection will take 2 to 3 hours, depending on the size, condition, and characteristics of the home. Larger homes will require more time, as will older homes. We advise our clients to arrive 1 hour from the beginning of the inspection for the best use of their time.
