Professional Home Inspections in the High Desert
Cortez features a mix of older homes and new development. The high-desert climate requires an inspector who understands the different building methods used over the different timeframes and how certain concerns with them tend to present over time.
The "Expansive Soil" Factor
I look for the "stair-step" masonry cracks and sticking doors that signal soil movement common to the Cortez area's bentonite clay.

Sewer Line Integrity
I provide digital Sewer Scope services to give you a clear view of the interior waste lines, which is highly recommended for Cortez’s established neighborhoods.

Outbuildings & Workshops
Ancillary structures are common here and I can help you understand the structural and electrical/plumbing concerns that may exist.
