What is included in your Property Inspection

At Lucent Property Inspections, we begin at the top of your building and systematically work our way down to the foundation. Here’s a look at what your inspector will visually examine in between your roof and foundation.

Roof

Your roof gets a thorough examination to ensure it’s doing a good job keeping the elements out and letting fresh air in where it needs to.

Exterior

Siding, decks, patios, driveways and exterior elements are examined to see if they are in working order. The property and landscaping immediately surrounding your building are also inspected to make sure they don’t contain any surprises.

Interior

All the major systems and essential operational items within your building are inspected to make sure everything is in working order. If it’s not, your inspector will let you know in-person and in your commercial or home inspection report.

Foundation

Your foundations, support beams, and load-bearing devices are visually examined for signs of damage that can undermine your entire structure.

Property Inspection Process

If this is your first property inspection or you haven’t had one in a while, you may not know what a thorough inspection entails these days. Below is the process we follow to deliver exceptional residential and commerical inspections in Peoria, Bloomington, Normal, IL, and the surrounding areas.

Visual Inspection

Test Operational Items

The operational items in a home or building are often the first things to break down. That’s why we go through them to make sure nothing is about to give out on you.

Organize Findings

During an inspection, we take extensive notes so that you have highly actionable information that will help you make clear decisions. All those notes get prioritized for you based on how pressing they are.

Deliver Report

The final product of a Lucent property inspection is a highly detailed commercial or home inspection report outlining all our findings. This report highlights useful recommendations that will help you make critical decisions.

I highly recommend Greg Bradle and Lucent Property Inspections. I needed a home inspection and was able to line one up almost immediately. Greg's communication was lightning-fast and clear, which made it easy (particularly for someone who hasn't gone through this before). When he did the inspection, he was happy to have me tag along and provided incredibly helpful information. The inspection was extraordinarily thorough. The resulting report was clear, with tons of detailed photos and the ability to organize it into specific action plans. Overall, the inspection was a great deal in terms of price and value received.

I would highly recommend Greg for home inspection services. He was very timely and thorough in his process. The verbal summary at the end was very helpful and his report was very detailed with pictures included. Greg communicated everything well and made everything clear to us and made it a much easier process for us.

We are buying an older house in central Illinois and wanted a professional inspector's assessment of the needs of the house. Our short tour of the house with a real estate agent certainly wasn't going to reveal the house's deficiencies and needs. We considered numerous inspectors before choosing Lucent Property Inspections. We are most pleased with our choice. Greg listed the condition, implication, location with photos, task required to improve the condition, and needed time frame. He reviewed the report in person and provided additional benefits as well. It gave us peace of mind to have a comprehensive list of needs, whether major or minor, for our upcoming purchase.

Scheduling online was very quick and user friendly! Greg was very thorough and transparent on what timeline I may be looking at needing to replace or repair findings. The verbal summary at the end of the inspection was great as well to help a single female have clarity on what was in the inspection report findings. I had a great experience!
