Buying a home—especially your first—is a big deal. It’s exciting, overwhelming, and full of important decisions. One of the most crucial? The home inspection. It’s your chance to truly understand the condition of the house before you move forward, and the quality of that inspection can make all the difference.
In North Carolina, home inspectors are required to follow the state’s Standards of Practice (SOP), which outlines the minimum components that must be inspected. But at Building Confidence Home Inspections, we believe “minimum” isn’t enough. That’s why we go well beyond the SOP—because your peace of mind deserves more.
What Other Inspectors Might Miss (And We Don’t)
We Don’t Stop at “Representative” Checks
The SOP only requires a sample: a few windows, doors, or outlets. That’s not good enough for us. We test every accessible window, door, and outlet—because thoroughness matters.
We Run the Washer and Dryer
Most inspectors don’t. We do. These systems are part of everyday life, and we want to make sure they’re working before you move in.
We’re Up on the Roof (or Over It)
Some inspectors only view the roof from the ground. Not us. We walk every roof we can safely access. If we can’t get on it, we fly a drone over it. No matter what—it gets inspected.
We Test Gas Logs
Lighting pilot lights isn’t required, so many inspectors skip it. We light them. We want you to know that cozy fireplace evenings are ready when you are.
A Foundation Built on Experience
With over 45 years of combined experience, our team brings deep knowledge and perspective to every inspection. We know the difference between a minor issue and a major red flag. And when we explain our findings, it’s with clarity and calm—not alarm. That means less stress and more confidence in your decisions.
Reports That Respect Your Timeline
We know you’re on a schedule. That’s why we deliver inspection reports the same day—often right from the site. No waiting. No wondering. Just answers, fast.

Advanced Tools Are Standard
We use drone and thermal imaging technology on every inspection. Not as a premium add-on—but as part of how we work. These tools give us a clearer look at things like roof conditions, insulation gaps, and hidden moisture issues, providing insights that others might miss.
Support That Lasts Beyond the Report
When you work with us, you’re not just getting a report—you’re gaining a partner. Have questions months down the road? Call us. Email us. We offer lifetime consulting for every client we serve.
Can’t make the inspection? No problem. We’ll FaceTime you in, hop on a call afterward, or send a narrated screen recording walking you through the findings.
And most importantly—we customize every inspection to your priorities. Your concerns guide the process. No cookie-cutter reports here.
