Home Inspections in Berea, OH

Berea is known as the Grindstone City, and its sandstone history shows up in many older foundations, steps and retaining walls. Near Baldwin Wallace University and the downtown triangle you will find homes from the late 1800s and early 1900s, with newer neighborhoods farther out.

Sandstone and older masonry foundations can be strong for a century, but they need good drainage and maintenance. We look for loose mortar, moisture and movement and tell you what is normal for the age.

Berea also has many rental homes and two family properties near campus. If you are an investor, we inspect every unit and note items that matter for safe rentals, like smoke alarms, egress and heating.

What We Look For in Berea Homes

  • Sandstone and older masonry foundations
  • Historic homes near the downtown triangle
  • Rental and two family properties near campus
  • Drainage near the Rocky River valley

Every inspection includes thermal imaging, drone roof imaging, gas leak and carbon monoxide checks, a 30 day warranty, and a photo rich report within 12 hours.
