Residential Home Inspections
Before purchasing a home, it is good practice to have the property inspected. As Certified Home Inspectors, we ensure that you have all of the information you need to make an informed decision and negotiate in the purchasing of your home. Often home inspections uncover concerns that may not have been overtly apparent during your initial walk-throughs of the home. AxF Engineering will meticulously review and inspect your dream home from the roof to the foundation, and everywhere in between, to find any potential concerns with the house. Expect an unbiased report, detailing our evaluation of the home. In addition to traditional home inspection services, we also offer complementary consultations where we will walk you through the home inspection report, explaining any concerns in layman's terms.

Termite & Wood Destroying Organism Inspections
Wood Destroying Organisms (WDOs) are a nuisance to any homeowner and can cause serious property damage. When infestations are severe, WDOs can compromise the structural stability of a home. The most common WDOs are termites, powder post beetles, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, old house borers and various species of fungi. During a WDO inspection, susceptible areas of your home are thoroughly inspected using minor probing and sounding tools to identify any current or former infestation locations. After the inspection you will be provided with a report, detailing our findings, which you can use to create a treatment plan with a licensed pest control company in the event WDOs are discovered. Because structural damage caused by WDOs is often difficult to detect, a WDO inspection is a smart choice to protect your investment. A WDO inspection is highly recommended to anyone purchasing a property, in conjunction with all general home inspections.
Sewer Camera Inspection
Sewer blockages are an unforeseeable and unplanned issue that occur in many homes. Most blockages are the result of a defect in the piping, causing solids to accumulate. Sewer overflows and backups can cause a lot of damage, cost thousands to repair and a home without an operating drain system isn’t habitable. A sewer camera inspection by AxF Engineering can put to rest concerns and head off a potential sewage nightmare. If you are buying a home that is over 10 years old you should consider adding a sewer inspection to your home inspection. This small investment can save you thousands of dollars in repairs if there is an issue with your sewer.
