When it comes to home inspections, attention to detail matters. Our inspections go beyond the surface, examining every accessible area of the property—from the roof to the foundation and everything in between. Using state-of-the-art equipment and a methodical approach, we uncover issues that might not be visible to the untrained eye. With our thorough inspection process, you’ll receive a clear, concise report that empowers you to make informed decisions about the property.
Modern Home Inspection Reports Designed for Clarity and Convenience
At Burke Home Inspections, our reports are designed to simplify the inspection process while providing clear, actionable insights. Each report includes high-resolution photos and, when necessary, video clips to give you a detailed understanding of the property’s condition. From roof damage to plumbing issues, we document every finding visually and explain it in straightforward terms.
Our advanced tools set us apart. One standout feature is our Repair List Generator, which allows clients and agents to extract specific items from the report to create a custom repair list. This tool is perfect for negotiations, saving time, and ensuring a professional, organized document that focuses on the repairs that matter most.
Delivered digitally, our reports are interactive and user-friendly, with clickable sections that let you quickly find the information you need. This streamlined approach benefits buyers, sellers, and real estate agents alike, making it easier to navigate, negotiate, and plan the next steps.

Home Inspections
Our home inspections are thorough and tailored to your needs, whether you’re buying, selling, or preparing for the end of a builder’s warranty. We provide detailed buyer inspections to help you make informed decisions, seller inspections to prepare your home for sale, and 11th month inspections to ensure your home is still in top condition before your builder’s warranty expires. With a comprehensive evaluation of every aspect of the property, our inspections give you peace of mind throughout the process.
Thermal Imaging
Our thermal imaging services use advanced infrared technology to identify hidden issues that may not be visible to the naked eye. This non-invasive method helps detect problems such as water leaks, electrical issues, insulation gaps, and potential mold growth, all of which could affect your home’s efficiency and safety. By incorporating thermal imaging into our inspections, we provide a more comprehensive and accurate assessment, ensuring that no hidden problems are overlooked and helping you make informed decisions.
Septic Inspections
A septic inspection is vital to maintaining your home’s wastewater system. Our inspection evaluates the entire system, from the tank to the leach field, checking for clogs, leaks, or any damage that could lead to costly repairs or health risks. We ensure that your septic system is functioning properly, reducing the risk of expensive emergencies. Regular septic inspections help you avoid surprises and ensure that your home’s sewage system continues to operate efficiently and safely for years to come.
Maintenance Inspections
Our maintenance inspections are designed to help homeowners stay ahead of potential issues and protect the long-term value of their property. We thoroughly assess your home’s major systems—such as plumbing, electrical, and HVAC—identifying small problems before they become expensive repairs. Maintenance inspections are a smart way to ensure everything is running smoothly and to catch hidden issues early. This proactive approach can save you money, prevent costly surprises, and help extend the life of your home’s critical systems.
Roof Inspections
Our roof inspections are thorough and designed to ensure your roof is in top condition. We evaluate the roofing materials, structure, ventilation, and drainage systems to check for damage, leaks, or wear that could compromise your home’s safety. Whether you’re buying a new home or maintaining your current property, a roof inspection is crucial in identifying problems early. We provide detailed findings and recommend any necessary repairs so you can be confident that your roof is providing the protection you need.
Deck Inspections
Decks can be a great feature for your home, but they require regular inspections to ensure they remain safe and structurally sound. Our deck inspections focus on checking the condition of all components, including the foundation, railings, support beams, and decking materials. We look for signs of wear, rot, instability, or damage that could pose a safety risk. With a detailed deck inspection, you can address any potential issues before they become a problem, ensuring a safe and enjoyable outdoor space.
