Services
Residential Inspections
Our residential inspections assess all major systems including structure, plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. We identify safety hazards, maintenance needs, and repair costs to help buyers make informed decisions. Inspectors use thermal imaging and digital reporting tools to document findings comprehensively.
Commercial Inspections
Commercial property evaluations focus on structural integrity, mechanical systems, and regulatory compliance. We help businesses understand facility conditions before purchase or lease, identifying potential liabilities and long-term maintenance requirements through detailed visual assessments.
Environmental Testing
Environmental testing services identify hidden risks like radon gas, mold, lead-based paint, and water contaminants. Our certified technicians collect samples for lab analysis and provide clear guidance for remediation when hazardous materials are detected.
New Construction Inspections
New construction inspections verify workmanship quality and building code compliance during key phases. We identify defects in materials, improper installations, and system malfunctions to ensure homes meet promised standards before final walkthroughs.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Using specialized cameras, we inspect sewer lines for cracks, blockages, and root intrusion. This service helps prevent costly repairs by identifying drainage issues early through real-time video imaging of underground piping systems.

This is my first home purchase, and the first time I've been involved with a home inspection. Will really made it easy. As soon as I met him at the house, he gave me an explanation of what he was going to do and where he was going to inspect. This really made me feel at ease before the process even really started. At every point throughout the inspection, he would point out a finding to me, asked if I understood what he was explaining, and if I didn't understand, he would walk me through it.
I'll admit, I'm not exactly "handy, " however, I feel completely confident on what to do and who to contact to fix any issue found during the inspection thanks to Will. I couldn't be happier with the process. Would highly recommended to anyone.

Our inspector Tom P. was prompt. Did a great job greeting us and giving us a full scope of what to expect during the inspection. He got right to work and did a very thorough detailed explanation of all the details that I wanted to know about the home we were buying. We received a detailed 42 page report with photos the same exact day the inspection was done. This company Brickkickers really knows what they're doing and I would be happy to strongly recommend them!

From the time it took to make the appointment to the immediate follow up email with the quote a very personable approach was provided. My realtor recommended this company and the inspector who furnished the service. Will explained everything he was looking for in his inspection. He also took the time to answer all of my questions regarding the inspection procedure. I would highly recommend this company to anyone who wants a home inspection.

We had a home inspection done, not because we are moving anytime soon, but rather for peace of mind that all of the wiring and pipes and outlets, etc. etc. are in good working order. I was able to schedule within a few days of reaching out. My inspector was on time and spent three hours inspecting our house. He allowed us to "tagalong" and answered all of our questions. I had the written report before business hours the very next day. If you need a home inspection done, I would highly recommend The BrickKicker!

I had Dave L from BrickKicker. He was great! Thorough, professional, and explained everything he was doing and everything he was looking for throughout the inspection. I had my full report the same day and it was laid out in a very easy to read and understand manner. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a home inspection!

Will Augustine is the best home inspector we've come across. He is thorough and patiently explains everything he sees, then fully documents it for your review later. He saved us from buying a money pit and helped us learn about and understand the home we ended up buying. There is no other inspector in my mind!
