Pre-Listing Inspections

A Pre-listing Inspection is a great way to be proactive when you are thinking of or currently selling your home. Almost every buyer will be hiring an inspector and it is better to be prepared. With a Pre-listing Inspection you can avoid any surprises once you are in contract and repair any issues that may be sticking points in your negotiations. Since you are planning on selling your home, this action also communicates to potential buyers that you are not trying to hide anything by providing an unbiased report. Additionally, if the buyers wish, a re-inspection can be arranged for a reduced fee. This extra option can help to ensure that any previous issues have been addressed properly. It is the buyers choice if they wish to use this service at their expense.

New Construction Home

New Construction Inspections

Building a home is a great undertaking involving multiple work crews. Even newly built homes often have defects that can go unnoticed at first glance. Additionally, many lenders require an inspection at certain stages before they will finance the next phase. Our inspectors know what to look for in partially finished and newly constructed dwellings.

We also can inspect:

  • Phased Inspections – As the home is being built.
  • Warranty Inspections – 11 Month Warranty Inspection.

Commercial Inspections

Protect your investment by knowing everything you possibly can about your commercial building or property, such as retail spaces and restaurants. Your inspection report may be a great help in the case of any tenant disputes over damage.

Atlanta, GA Luxury Inspections

Luxury Inspections

On large homes, AHI Inspections will send multiple inspectors to the house to ensure the job gets done in a reasonable time frame while providing the highest quality of inspecting. While most solo inspectors would need 1 or 2 full days to inspect a luxury home, an AHI Inspections team can accomplish the same inspection in 3 to 4 hours, while still being very meticulous.

Additional services

Water Testing

Is your water safe to drink and cook with? We can test for lead and other heavy metals, as well as bacterial contamination. Should we find unhealthy levels of contaminants, we can recommend ways to ensure your water is clean and safe.

Radon Testing

Radon, an odorless and colorless gas, is a leading cause of lung cancer. It seeps up from the ground and, since it’s heavier than air, tends to collect in the lowest level of a building. The good news is that if we detect radon, there are simple steps you can take to abate its presence.

Mold Testing

All homes have mold. Certain types of mold, or high concentrations of mold, can be hazardous to your family’s health. Mold testing—and taking steps to combat its presence—can be an essential step in ensuring your new home is safe.

Thermography Inspection

We use thermal cameras on every home inspection to help us find more. Thermal imaging shows temperature differentials which can indicate water leaks, AC leaks, and more.

Re-Inspections

In some cases, it’s immediately evident whether the seller has corrected a defect. In other situations, it may be wise to have a portion of the home re-inspected to ensure proper repairs have been made.

Termite Inspection

Carpenter ants, termites and other wood-destroying organisms (WDOs) can cause irreparable damage to your home. Catching an infestation early can save you from costly repairs, expensive rebuilding or even structural collapse.

Sewer Scopes

A sewer scope inspection allows us to view the inside of your drains to check for damage, bellies, clogs, and more. This is completed by running a camera through your sewer clean out or roof vent to the main sewer at the street.

Condo/Townhome Inspections

Have your condo or townhouse inspected by a professional so that you can get the peace of mind you deserve on your big investment.

Pool Inspections

Pool, spa, filtration, and deck will be inspected and we’ll let you know what needs to be updated or if your pool is ready for the summer.

Thorough inspection that saved us thousands of dollars!
We recently hired Avalon Home Inspections Inc. to inspect our new home before finalizing the purchase, and we couldn't be happier with their service. The team did an absolutely amazing job from start to finish.
What impressed us most was the incredible attention to detail in their inspection process. They didn't miss a thing! After completing their work, they provided us with a comprehensive, detailed document that highlighted all the items requiring attention throughout the property. The report was thorough, well-organized, and easy to understand, covering everything from minor issues to more significant concerns.
The real value came when we presented this detailed report to the seller. Thanks to Avalon's meticulous documentation, the seller agreed to address and fix all the identified issues before closing. This saved us a significant amount of money that we would have otherwise had to spend on repairs and maintenance after moving in.
Avalon Home Inspections Inc. truly proved their worth - their inspection fee was a small investment that resulted in substantial savings for us. Their professionalism, expertise, and thoroughness gave us complete confidence in our home purchase decision.
For anyone buying a home, I highly recommend Avalon Home Inspections Inc. Their detailed work can potentially save you thousands of dollars and give you invaluable peace of mind about your investment.

Response from the owner:Thank you so much for the incredible review! We're thrilled to hear that our inspection helped you save money and move forward with confidence in your new home. Congratulations on your new home, and thank you again for trusting Avalon Home Inspections!
I have been recommending Avalon Home Inspections for the past 15 years or so, to all of my clients. They have been consistently great over all the years. Most recently with Alex. My client unfortunately had to terminate on a contract, but specifically asked for Alex for the next home. Alex was very pleasant, knowledgeable, and patient. He communicates well with my clients and that is very important to me.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your continued trust and support over the past 15 years—it truly means a lot to us. We’re especially glad to hear Alex made such a strong impression. He’s a valued member of our team, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words. We know how important clear communication and professionalism are during the home buying process, and we’re grateful for the opportunity to support you and your clients every step of the way. Looking forward to many more years of working together!
