We inspect properties using our 217 point home inspection checklist. It goes above and beyond the New York State requirements to ensure that you end up with your dream home and not a money pit.

Do you want a truly impartial and Comprehensive Home Inspection? Would you like a home inspector who can offer all the ancillary services you may need without having to hire additional service providers? If so, choose Tom Francis owner of "A Best Home Inspection" - Central New York's premier, full service home inspection and testing company. He has over 30 years hands on real experience, in all aspects of the building trades gained as a noncommissioned officer in the Army Engineers and from owning a general contracting company for over 20 years. He was the first NACHI certified home inspector in the Syracuse area and has performed over 2000 home inspections since 1997. We started our inspection company as a needed alternative prevalent "quickie" or "patsy" inspections that are done in just an hour or two and are more of a service to the realtors than the buyer... They don't look too close, not wanting to spoil the sale and their Realtors referrals. In contrast our typical inspection takes about three to four hours thoroughly evaluating all aspects of the home. We get into the crawl space and attic and walk the roof, most inspectors do not. Realtors and homeowners sometimes get upset we are at the home so long but we take our job seriously, to give you the best inspection we can so you can have peace of mind to make the right decisions and better negotiate in buying your home. We take time to answer your questions at the inspection and then spend another 3 to 4 hours and often more to finish the report and get it to you the same night or with-in 24 hours. Of course the Best Home Inspection requires the Best Inspection Report.

Buying or selling a home is probably the biggest investment you will ever be involved with. The stress related to making such a large purchase can be overwhelming. A professional home inspection will significantly reduce your risk by exposing facts that you need to know. We at Ideal Inspection truly enjoy helping our clients achieve a better home buying or selling experience.

Your comprehensive narrative report will be archived on line for your convenience. There are basically two types of reports, checklist and narrative. Handwritten checklist reports can leave a large portion of information open for interpretation. Ideal Inspection has chosen to use a narrative report to better describe the observations made. Having this report stored online gives you the chance to support the green movement by viewing or saving the document. For approximately every 270 reports viewed (not printed), we will save a tree. This may not sound like much, but just think if all professional home inspections throughout the USA were viewed instead of printed!

Ideal Inspection’s room by room inspection report is second to none. Most narrative reports can be general when describing the location of a specific problem. Our report breaks down the observations room by room. Our report also includes a 116 page Home Maintenance Manual, free phone consultation for as long as you own your home, and a 110 day money back gaurantee. We feel that with all of these items in mind; we have the best product on the market today.

As prelisting specialists we take special consideration for the home seller. We will work with the real estate agent and the seller to provide a home that is ready to sell. We will provide a sign in the front yard explaining that this house has been pre-inspected by Ideal Inspection. We will also provide a section on our website that is devoted to the homes that have been pre-inspected by Ideal Inspection. This section on the website will send the potential buyer straight to your real estate agent. This process will give your home the edge it needs in today’s market, and provide a much smoother transaction for all.

Using this information, I develop a professional, unbiased and easy to understand report of the home’s condition. Knowing the property’s condition is key to making a wise purchasing decision for the right price.
