I was so impressed with everyone at Chateau. They took great care of us, and Chris did an amazing job on our home inspection.
Excellent service. The office staff was very accommodating, and our inspector did a very thorough job. Loved the web-based report!

How Does A Home Inspection Benefit You?
Your Chateau home inspector will advise you of potential problems that could result in expensive repair issues after you move in.
Our No-Hassle Guarantee
The goal of every member of our team is for you to be completely satisfied with both your inspection, and the customer experience we deliver for you.

How does a home inspection benefit you?
The true cost of any home is the total of the price you pay at closing PLUS the cost of any repairs you need to make after you move in.
Investing in a home inspection with one of our certified professionals can often save you thousands of dollars upfront on the purchase price, AND help you avoid major unexpected (and expensive) repair issues after you move in.
Your Chateau inspector will produce a detailed report that can often provide you with the leverage you need to negotiate valuable concessions from the seller on the final purchase price of your new home.
