What’s Included in a Home Inspection?

Home Inspectors look at things like the property’s roof, exterior, foundation, structural and major systems. They then provide a written home inspection report with their findings.

And a typical home inspection generally takes two to four hours depending on the square footage of the property. Condominium inspections typically take one to two hours.

The home inspector, Veronica Leung, was always punctual for our appointments. She ran a very thorough and complete inspection and was very detailed.

She also explained her reasons for the findings and I was able to correct or improve the most important issues. Veronica is personable, articulate, and most of all, knowledgeable in her craft. I would highly recommend Golden Gate Inspections for your reporting needs.

Consistently the best – highly communicative, kind, quick turnaround times. Jake was fantastic and we were very comfortable with him in the home as we worked/went about the day. Thorough and user-friendly reports. I’m a realtor and I always choose Golden Gate – not one complaint!

We had such a wonderful experience with these people. They helped us out on a holiday with a last-minute inspection. The person who answered the phone was the nicest ever. Jake did our inspection and he was also the nicest ever. He worked quickly and gave very clear recommendations. We would definitely use them again.

Overall a great experience with Golden Gate Home Inspections.  Our inspector Len came on time, was professional, and knowledgeable. I had questions on a few items after the inspection and Len was able to come back to the property to address them.

Furthermore, Chris also followed up to check on how the inspection went and was super responsive and helpful in working me into their schedule.  I would recommend them!

Featured Testimonial

Extremely professional, responsible, knowledgeable, and friendly!

This is THE best experience I had with home inspectors during my entire career. Extremely professional, responsible, knowledgeable, and friendly! They worked diligently to inform me and my client and make sure that we understood the entire process.

To start with, Chris was fantastic in getting me an appointment so quickly, during a period where inspections were in high demand. He not only did answer the phone after business hours, but he went beyond and above to accommodate.

Jake was the home inspector, and he was great to work with. He was very detailed in his inspection. The report came quickly, s]with such an easy-to-use, friendly interface and easy to understand. And to have them available to answer any questions we had, was a huge plus. Two thumbs up for Jake and Chris. I would 100% recommend it.

Foundation Cracking
From the Field

Foundation Cracking: Minor

ByGolden Gate Home Inspections

Foundation cracking is normal in most homes. Sometimes the cracking is due to concrete shrinkage but sometimes it’s due to settling of the home or the lot itself. The cracks in this foundation would be considered minor and something to monitor over time. If this crack widens, then we would recommend contacting a structural engineer to evaluate the cause and propose suggestions for repair. If you’re concerned about the condition of your foundation, contact us to schedule a foundation inspection.
