Report
We use a narrative reporting system accompanied with clear, concise photographs at no additional charge. We believe this provides a better service compared to the quick and easy, on-site check off list which is convenient for Inspectors and RE agents but a great disservice to the person who is depending on the report. Our report addresses most questions, warns of potential problems, and is great educational reading. As a convenience for the Realtors involved, we supply a Summary page(s) which provides a quick lists of the areas of concern.
Because of the time and effort spent on each inspection, we seldom schedule more than one inspection in a day. We want your inspection first and foremost in mind and do not want to rush through your inspection to get to the second or third one. You are our greatest concern.
Sometimes it's just not safe to walk on a roof. AAA Property Inspection Services now inspect most every roof safely and without the huge risk associated with walking on brittle shingles, clay or concrete tiles.
