Our home inspections are thorough and efficient. We point out the good, provide helpful context for potential concerns, and share valuable tips for successful home ownership. You will then receive a home inspection report that is very detailed but also clear and easy to follow. It is also very easy to extract relevant information from our interactive online reports with just a few clicks to share with others. Our process doesn’t end there, as we are always available for questions afterward.
Are you confident your current home is safe, sound, and healthy for your family? Did you waive the inspection when you purchased? An hour of your time could end up saving you thousands of dollars in unexpected expenses from unknown issues in your home! We'll look at the main areas of your home and give you the headlines you need to understand what to prioritize, what may be a health concern, and what's working well. No lengthy reports—just clear, actionable advice shared during the visit.
Look no further for the complete package -- Kensa offers the extra services you need, whether with an inspection or a consultation! We provide complete Air Quality Testing in one electronic device that is exclusive to Kensa in Massachusetts. The battery-driven tamper-resistant device simultaneously tests for Radon, CO, CO2, VOC, Particulates (water and dust), and gives a Mold Risk Score. The detailed report also includes local weather data where available, which can affect the results. Avoid the passive charcoal canisters most inspectors use, as they take at least 2 days longer due to mailing and lab processing. More importantly, they give only one data point which can be misleading. Our service gives hundreds of data points and immediate results at the end of the test!
Also, we are certified by the New England Pest Management Association to provide termite inspections (aka WDI or wood-destroying insects). These services can be done with one appointment, giving you a single point of contact and a smooth, efficient process.
We believe that the required state standards of practice (266 CMR) should be the floor, not the ceiling. Many home inspectors look only at what is required (and sometimes less). Not Kensa. We look at many extras, including laundry machines, oil tanks, refrigerators that are not built-in, and more. Do you want the minimum or do you want the free extras?
Kensa can see things others cannot. We leverage our Certified Level 1 Thermographer experience and infrared imaging to find problems not visible to the human eye, such as moisture intrusion and missing insulation. There is no extra charge for this service, but you get extra information.
Our inspection reports are customized to each unique property and typically include the following items. View our sample reports for more detail and a complete list.
