Stand alone Water Quality test
A re - inspection is a visual examination of a property I have inspected for the same client. There are two types of re - inspections. The first one is to re inspect the specified noted items and make sure that they were repaired correctly. The other type of re - inspection is to come back out to the house and inspect an area or system that was not accessible at the time of the original inspection. .
Additional Services
Water Quality
Acuity Inspections also offer water quality tests. We collect water samples at the property and have it tested for the drinking quality. There are a couple of different options for testing. The first one is a coliform test which is a basic quality test. The other test will check for coliform, nitrates, and lead this test is what will be done for the FHA loans. If you are purchasing a property in the country I definitely recommend having a water quality test performed.

After we walk through the home together, we will explain the general condition of the home and systems with you and your agent. We will talk through any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read Spectora report, which will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format.
