We are Certified in all types of Home Inspection Services.

No matter your situation, our comprehensive home inspection is an intensive visual examination of all accessible components and systems. Accessible roofs will be walked; all accessible areas of the crawlspace and attic will be entered. A report of approximately 30-50 pages with full color photos of all areas of concern will be prepared. Most reports will be available that same evening, always within 24 hours emailed directly to you.

Home inspections:

Whether it’s brand new or just new to you, we provide a thorough inspection to help you understand a home’s condition and what you may need to be concerned about in the future. If you are getting your existing home ready for sale a pre-listing inspection can help you avoid any last minute trouble.

Pre-drywall inspections:

If you’re having a new home built, we look to find all the things that get missed by the builder and the municipal inspectors that need to be corrected before the drywall is installed.

Warranty inspections:

Performed just before your new home warranty expires ensures the builder fixes any issues that came up in the first year and if you didn’t have your home inspected before closing, this inspection is critical.

Is your crawlspace wet? Have an issue you need help figuring out?  Maybe you’ve just been in your home for a while and have deferred maintenance, now you need to have an unbiased professional provide you with information without trying to sell you something. We can help!

We provide ongoing support for our clients and offer an incredibly unique and valuable service called Inspector for Life – Check it out here

Termite and Pest Inspections

We specialize in Termite and Pest Inspections for the Triangle covering all of RTP, Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Morrisville, Apex, Carrboro, Wake Forest, Fuquay Varina, Garner, Holly Springs, Knightdale, PIttsboro, New Hill, Clayton, Wendell, Rolesville, Zebulon and more

Termites, snakes, mice, roaches, bats, rats, ants, beetles – Yikes! – This is your house not theirs!

In North Carolina termites are a fact of life. It’s not a question of if your home has termites, it’s a question of when your home will have termites!
A thorough termite inspection before you purchase a new home and ongoing annual inspections are an absolute necessity.

These inspections are performed by our certified inspectors under our own license #2210PW. We do not sub-contract this out to another company or allow the inspections to be performed by inexperienced inspectors working under another companies license that may be several counties away.
We spend hours in your home performing the general inspection and I cannot count how many times we have found termites, termite damage and pests in areas that other inspectors have missed.

We provide the official North Carolina Wood-Destroying Insect Information Report, commonly referred to as the WDIR which is typically required when purchasing a resale home in North Carolina.

Did you know that while the termite inspection is frequently called a pest inspection it is NOT a pest inspection?

We offer a service that others don’t – A more comprehensive pest inspection to uncover evidence of all kinds of bugs and critters that don’t belong in your home. For slightly more than the cost of the standard termite inspection you will receive a comprehensive report to inform you of all the pests, termites. animals and other wood destroying organism in your home.

Radon Testing

We specialize in electronic monitor radon detection and offer testing for new construction and existing homes. We serve the greater Triangle, NC area, including Apex, Cary, Carrboro, Chapel Hill, Clayton, Durham, Fuquay-Varina, Garner, Holly Springs, Knightdale, Morrisville, Raleigh, Rolesville and Wake Forest



The U.S. Surgeon General recommends ALL homes be tested for radon.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas released in rock, soil and water that can build up to dangerous levels inside any home; this means new and old homes, well sealed and drafty homes, and homes with or without a basement. Radon gas is odorless and invisible and the only way to know if your home has a radon problem is to test for it.

Breathing radon in your home can cause lung cancer.

Radon,+North+Carolina+2014

Radon is found in all over the state

Homes with high levels of radon have been found in every state. In fact, radon levels can vary greatly from home to home–even levels next door can be very different. Radon is measured in picocuries per liter of air (pCi/L), a measurement of radioactivity. In the United States, the average indoor radon level is about 1.3 pCi/L. The average outdoor level is about 0.4 pCi/L. The U.S. Surgeon General and EPA recommend fixing homes with radon levels at or above 4 pCi/L. EPA also recommends that people think about fixing their homes for radon levels between 2 pCi/L and 4 pCi/L.

A Certified Radon Specialist should test your home for radon

Testing your house for radon is easy. If your house has a radon problem, it can be fixed. Fixing a radon problem reduces the risk of lung cancer for you and your family.

Triangle Inspection Group uses only the most advanced equipment available

The Corentium Pro features four highly accurate radon chambers that work in parallel for maximum performance, reliability and speed.

There is no better equipment to use when testing your home for radon.

We serve the Triangle covering all of RTP, Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, Cary, Morrisville, Apex, Carrboro, Wake Forest, Fuquay Varina, Garner, Holly Springs, Knightdale, PIttsboro, New Hill, Clayton, Wendell, Rolesville, Zebulon and more

It can be extremely important to know if there is any mold present in your home

In the State of North Carolina home inspectors do not report on the presence of any suspected adverse environmental condition or hazardous substances such as mold. We feel that this is a very important service so we have gone above the State standards to become certified to offer this very important service to our clients.
We are unbiased inspectors and not interested in selling repair and remediation services. We are only interested in helping you determine if any mold is present in your home and if possible, helping uncover the underlying conditions that allowed it to occur.
With this service we will take 3 air samples – 1 Outdoor control and 2 Indoor samples. Additional air or surface samples are available at your request

We will provide an easy to read full color visual and comprehensive mold report:

  • Includes actual images of mold spores & particulate

Water Testing and Well Inspections

We specialize in Water Testing and Well Inspections in new construction and existing homes. We serve the greater Triangle, NC area, including Apex, Cary, Carrboro, Chapel Hill, Clayton, Durham, Fuquay-Varina, Garner, Holly Springs, Knightdale, Morrisville, Raleigh, Rolesville and Wake Forest

Whether your home has a well or not – It is extremely important to know about the water supply

When purchasing a home with a well it is extremely important to have the water analyzed for contaminants. Homes with a municipal supply may have concerns with old metal supply systems, lead solder or corroded pipe fittings that can adversely affect your drinking water.

It wasn’t until 1986 that Congress prohibited the use of pipes, solder or flux that were not “lead free” defined as solder and flux with no more than 0.2% lead and pipes with no more than 8% and then it wasn’t until 2011 that the level of lead was lowered from 8% to a weighted average of 0.25%.

That means a lot of our homes have lead in the water supply

Homes with wells add to the concern due to environmental contaminants that can be in the water. Homes on or around former or current agricultural or industrial properties can be highly susceptible to chemical contamination.

The well inspection will ensure that the above ground components of the well are properly sealed , the above ground piping is correct, the electrical components are safe and the wellhead is free of cracks or openings where contaminants can get into your water.

We are not licensed well contractors, only a licensed well contractor can remove the well cap or pump for an inspection and perform proper drawdown, pressure and flow tests.

We offer multiple water testing options including testing for Radon in water. 

Click here to see the testing options …

How often should I test my well water?

  • Every Year: Test for total and fecal coliform bacteria.
  • Every Two Years: Test for heavy metals, nitrates, nitrites, lead and copper.
  • Every Five Years: Test for pesticides and volatile organic compounds (VOCs)

Special situations that may require additional testing:

  • If you are pregnant or have an infant at home, you should test your water for nitrates. If you have nitrates in your well water, do not drink the water or use it to prepare baby formula. Use an alternative source of water instead. Boiling water does not remove nitrates.
  • If there are known problems with well water in your area
  • If you have experienced problems near your well (i.e., flooding, land disturbances, and nearby waste disposal sites)
  • If you replace or repair any part of your well system
  • If you notice a change in water quality (i.e., taste, color, odor)
