it is .10 per square foot under roof extra.
(note: most sq. ft. references are refering to the under

SERVICES
Pre-Purchase Inspection
A home inspection is a visual process where all of the items typically
used within a home are tested and/or operated to verify proper
operation or installation. Foundation and exterior inspected, doors and
windows are opened and closed,
roofing materials inspected, electrical and plumbing systems evaluated,
air-conditioning and heating systems
operated. The Inspector will fill the sinks and tub(s), run the
shower(s), and flush the toilets. All the while making notes on the
condition and operation of the components tested. At
the conclusion of the inspection a completed report will be written and
uploaded to a secure website for your review.
New Construction Inspections
New construction inspections are performed at the completion of
construction, but prior to your final walk through with the Builder's
Customer Service Representative or Superintendent. This is not a code
inspection but a visual and operational inspection. It is always a good
idea to verify that utilities (gas, water, and electric) have been
turned on, either by you or the Builder depending on the Builder's
policy. The inspection should be scheduled just a few days before
your
final walk through with the Builder. This will ensure that most, if not
all, last minute items have been completed prior to your inspection. At
the conclusion of the inspection a completed report will be written and
uploaded to a secure website for your review.
Note: as some builders require us to include them as a "Also
Insured" on our insurance policy, please allow us at least two
days prior to the inspection to ensure this gets completed.
Pre-Warranty Expiration Inspections
Warranty inspections are performed during the 11th month of your 1-year
Builder Warranty. The inspection will be performed to verify that
proper building techniques were used and that the various components of
the home were properly installed and functioning as expected. This
is an important inspection and we recommend every new homeowner get
this inspection done prior to the expiration of the builders warranty.
At
the conclusion of the inspection a completed report will be written and
uploaded to a secure website for your review.
Seller Certified Home Program (Pre-Listing Inspections)
Listing inspections are very good for the homeowner who may not be in
tune with the condition of their home. A great many sales are cancelled
due to the buyer's shock at the "functional condition" of the home. It
may look great, but have serious technical, safety, or functional
issues present without the owner's knowledge. Having the home inspected
prior to placing it on the market is the ideal way to identify and
either
repair or disclose the issue found in the Inspection Report. Obviously,
repairing the items would be the most beneficial towards completing the
sale. However, there may be financial reasons where the owner can't
make the repairs. Disclosing them up front and pricing the home based
upon that disclosure will often times produce a higher net sales price
for the owner. Most buyers will have their own inspection done,
but there should be no shocking surprises. Our inspection report will
be uploaded to a secure
server. We can make this report available to the public for their
review by a link placed on your listing.
