HOME INSPECTIONS IN THE CATSKILLS AND HUDSON VALLEY
WHAT IS A HOME INSPECTION?
A professional home inspection is a thorough, unbiased evaluation of a home’s overall condition. At Catskill Mountain Home Inspections, we assess 200+ structural, mechanical, and safety components using the latest tools and technology to give buyers, sellers, and homeowners a clear understanding of a property’s true state.
WHAT WE EVALUATE
During a full home inspection, we review major systems and components, including:
-
Structural integrity (foundation, framing, visible supports)
-
Roofing and attic systems
-
Electrical systems and panel safety
-
Plumbing and drainage
-
Heating, cooling, and ventilation
-
Interior and exterior conditions
-
Moisture, insulation, and ventilation concerns
-
Safety hazards and maintenance issues
Our inspections are non-invasive, efficient, and designed to deliver accurate results for homes throughout upstate–Catskills and Hudson Valley.
HOW LONG DOES A HOME INSPECTION TAKE?
Most home inspections take 2–3 hours, depending on the property’s size, age, and condition.
SHOULD YOU ATTEND THE HOME INSPECTION?
Whenever possible, we encourage clients to join the walk-through. Seeing the home up close—and having your questions answered in real time—gives you valuable context and confidence. If you're unable to make it, no problem. You will still receive a detailed report with everything you need to fully understand the property’s condition.
YOUR DETAILED INSPECTION REPORT
After every inspection, you’ll receive a comprehensive digital report that includes:
-
Clear explanations of all findings
-
Photos of key issues and components
-
Recommendations for repairs or further evaluation
-
Priority indicators so you know what matters most
We offer a free follow-up phone consultation to review the report and answer any remaining questions.
WE FOLLOW INDUSTRY STANDARDS
Our inspections are performed in accordance with NACHI (National Association of Certified Home Inspectors) standards. NACHI is the most recognized and respected organization of home inspectors in North America.
We also inspect properties the way we would inspect our own. We understand that many clients have limited construction experience which is the reason they hire us, so we structure the report with HD photos and state-of-the-art inspection software. Our inspectors write each report unique to the property inspected and we use language to communicate effectively and efficiently to our clients.
