Inspection Options
A thorough real estate inspection provides you with a detailed report on the property’s status prior to a purchase or sale listing. A professional home inspector is an impartial third-party person that will visually evaluate the physical structure, electrical system, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, interior walls/floors/doors, and exterior. We are connected with many Realtors, but do not work directly for them. Barrie Inspections works for you!
A home is a huge investment for most people. You worked hard to get to the point of purchase. The last thing you need is a hidden disaster waiting for you after closing. A trained, experienced, professional inspector can find these problems before you buy, which could save you multiple thousands of dollars later on! Don’t let your option period pass by without a home inspection, or you could be making a huge financial mistake! Always research your options to ensure you’re getting the right inspector for your needs!

Commercial Property Inspections
Opening a new location for your business or purchasing a commercial property? Barrie Inspections is the only Victoria Texas Inspector that is CCPIA certified! I can inspect commercial buildings of any type or size, providing you with a comprehensive assessment of the property’s overall condition.
Sewer Line Inspections
If you’re buying real estate, you are buying the underground sewer line as well! Problems with the sewer pipes are found with over 60% of inspections! Cost for repair runs $3k-$5k or more. Get piece of mind and get your sewer line inspection! Don’t pay triple our cost with a big name plumber for the same service!
Eleventh Month Warranty Inspections
Your home may have come with a one-year warranty. Before your home warranty expires, it’s a good idea to get another inspection to see what repairs (if any) you may be eligible for under your warranty before it expires. This saves you from having to pay for costly repairs out of your own pocket!
New Construction Inspections
Building a new home is exciting! But it can be very disappointing and costly when repairs or unfinished items are discovered. Before you move into your new build, it’s a good idea to hire a third-party inspector to feel confident about the completion of your home. We’ll look over everything that may still need to be addressed by the contractor. Before you build, verify your home builder will allow them! Some refuse to allow 3rd party inspections! This is a red flag!
Seller's Pre-Listing Inspections
If you’re looking to sell your home, it’s a good idea to go ahead and know what items may come up that could result in having to accept a reduced offer from a buyer due to undisclosed issues. By having your home professionally inspected before you list it, you’re afforded an opportunity to repair or compile a record of any defective components and to show the true value of your property. Once items are repaired, we will provide a clean inspeciton report for you to provide to prospective buyers!
Re-Inspections
Often times, homes have repairs made or new systems installed as part of the negotiation process. If these repairs have been made, it’s a good idea to get the repairs inspected to ensure they were done properly. We’ll examine the repaired element to see if it was repaired or installed correctly and up to code standards! It’s great peace of mind for very low cost.
Pool Inspections
Pool Inspections are one of the most overlooked parts of a home inspection. Buying a home with a pool can either add value, or be a money pit! Surface, coping, pumps, filter(s), heaters, lights, and water features all need to be inspected!
Thermal Imaging Inspections
Thermal imaging inspections allow us to see what the naked eye cannot see. Thermal Imaging seeks out extreme heat/cold spots in walls, pipes, and hard to reach places which locates drafts, moisture, overheating. We include this on EVERY inspection!
