Buyers Inspection
Our buyers inspections provide comprehensive evaluations of existing homes, identifying structural issues and system deficiencies. We examine foundations, roofing, plumbing, and electrical components to reveal hidden problems. Clients receive detailed reports with photographic evidence and repair recommendations within hours of inspection completion.
Radon Testing
We conduct EPA-compliant radon testing using continuous monitoring devices for accurate 48-hour results. Our Colorado-licensed professionals place detectors in optimal locations and provide clear explanations of findings. Test results include mitigation recommendations when elevated levels are detected.
Sewer Scoping
Using high-resolution cameras, we inspect sewer lines for cracks, root intrusion, and blockages. Our digital reports show exact problem locations with video documentation available upon request. We identify repair needs and potential replacement requirements during initial inspections.
Mold Testing
We perform air and surface sampling for mold spores in moisture-prone areas. Our lab-certified analysis identifies mold types and concentration levels. Results include remediation guidance and prevention strategies for maintaining healthy indoor environments.
New Construction Inspection
Our new construction inspections identify warranty items before final walkthroughs. We check code compliance, system functionality, and finish quality across all home components. Reports help buyers address issues with builders while still under construction timelines.

Report
Dylan was the best home inspector money can buy. He spent almost 3 hours with me answering every question i had about the smaller minutia regarding the care of the home, potential issues, and even maintenance. He took lots of time to help explain the various tips and advice he had regarding the care of the home. He was extremely friendly and kind in answering any dumb question I had. I cant recommend him enough especially to home buyers like myself who are new to the region and to home ownership in general.

Report
Dylan provided meaningful feedback on items needing attention (e.g., leaking hose bib, loose stair nosing) while gauging relative urgency of the fixes. He demonstrated his expertise as we discussed the expected lifespan of cellulose insulation & water heaters, root infested sewer lines and CO test of the gas fireplace. The report was thorough with photos and will serve as a reference in the future (e.g., location of water shutoff).
I've dealt with home inspectors in the past that seemed to need to go to "specialists" for second opinions on things that to me seemed basic (e.g., circuit capacity) - Dylan was not one of those. Would definitely recommend him.

This is the second time we've used Peak Home Inspections and had Dylan as our inspector. He truly is the best in town! With an investment as big as a new home, it's important to have someone you trust as your inspector. He's thorough, patient, and helpful.even going the extra mile to leave detailed notes on things that will help you in your ownership of the home overall. Thank you, Dylan!
