The Leading Residential and Commercial Inspectors in Tacoma
The Sterling Inspection Group has been proudly providing comprehensive residential and commercial inspection services for the residents of Tacoma since 1999. Whether you are looking at older homes, new construction, multi-res, or a commercial facility, our group of InterNACHI certified inspectors have the skills, training, and tools to provide the most comprehensive inspection services in the Puget Sound!
From Hilltop to Point Ruston, Tacoma has a wide array of different neighborhoods featuring an equally diverse assortment of homes. This varies from new construction to historical homes over 100 years in age. However, regardless of age or design, there is no diminishing the importance of having a thorough residential home inspection performed before the purchase of any home.
Our residential home inspectors are intimately familiar with the many diverse home types and neighborhoods of Tacoma. We perform a thorough inspection of all key systems and areas of a home, identifying any potential health and safety concerns or major visible deficiencies. On top of that, our inspectors provide a timely and detailed inspection report containing all details of their findings within 24 hours of the inspection completion.
With more businesses moving south from Seattle, the demand for commercial property in Tacoma has never been higher. From tech startups to hospitality to microbreweries to apartment developments, there is no shortage of new businesses looking for commercial properties. Whether purchasing an office space, restaurant, warehouse, or storefront, it is highly recommended that the property be inspected.
Unlike residential properties, commercial properties have very specific safety standards and requirements that must be met in order to operate. They also have unique elements not common in residential properties, including Life Safety systems and Commercial Kitchens, both of which have their own set of required operational standards. Our commercial property inspectors have the tools, knowledge, and expertise to assess the state of a commercial property effectively and accurately.
SPECIALTY INSPECTION SERVICES
We at the Sterling Inspection Group offer multiple specialty inspection services. These services cover elements of a home beyond the scope of a standard residential inspection. This provides homebuyers and homeowners with an even more comprehensive understanding of a home’s condition.
SEWER SCOPE
A sewer scope checks on the condition of the sewer line and pipes leading from a home to the city’s main line using a fiberoptic camera. It is not uncommon for Tacoma’s historical homes to have issues with their older concrete and clay side sewer lines. Cracks, pipe shifting, and intrusion from nearby tree roots can cause significant and extremely costly problems for a home’s sewer line. This is why the City of Tacoma recommends all homes with sewers over 25 years old have a sewer scope performed.
MOLD & INDOOR AIR
Indoor mold can be extremely dangerous. The development of mold indoors poses major potentially life-threatening health hazards in regard to air quality. It can also cause significant structural damage to a property, which can lead to a long and costly remediation process. Testing for mold and checking the indoor air quality can help homeowners catch and quickly treat mold before it develops into a larger problem.
GAS LEAK TESTING
Gas leak testing uses sophisticated instruments to check for gas leaks in a home or building’s various gas lines. Gas is very energy efficient and cost-efficient method of heating a home and is quite common across Tacoma’s many homes. Gas leaks usually come as a result of improperly installed appliances or fittings resulting in gas leaking out into the home or building. This not only result in higher than usual gas bills, but also poses serious health and safety concerns.
