What is included in your Property Inspection

At Lucent Property Inspections, we begin at the top of your building and systematically work our way down to the foundation. Here’s a look at what your inspector will visually examine in between your roof and foundation.

Roof

Your roof gets a thorough examination to ensure it’s doing a good job keeping the elements out and letting fresh air in where it needs to.

Exterior

Siding, decks, patios, driveways and exterior elements are examined to see if they are in working order. The property and landscaping immediately surrounding your building are also inspected to make sure they don’t contain any surprises.

Interior

All the major systems and essential operational items within your building are inspected to make sure everything is in working order. If it’s not, your inspector will let you know in-person and in your commercial or home inspection report.

Foundation

Your foundations, support beams, and load-bearing devices are visually examined for signs of damage that can undermine your entire structure.

Property Inspection Process

If this is your first property inspection or you haven’t had one in a while, you may not know what a thorough inspection entails these days. Below is the process we follow to deliver exceptional residential and commerical inspections in Peoria, Bloomington, Normal, IL, and the surrounding areas.

Visual Inspection

Test Operational Items

The operational items in a home or building are often the first things to break down. That’s why we go through them to make sure nothing is about to give out on you.

Organize Findings

During an inspection, we take extensive notes so that you have highly actionable information that will help you make clear decisions. All those notes get prioritized for you based on how pressing they are.

Deliver Report

The final product of a Lucent property inspection is a highly detailed commercial or home inspection report outlining all our findings. This report highlights useful recommendations that will help you make critical decisions.

Hired Greg to inspect a commercial building. Extremely thorough with his report. Has many experts he draws from to give a very complete look all aspects of the building. Follows up the report with a phone discussion of everything. And the inspection report is tabbed. Just touch a tab and be immediately taken to that portion of the report. I’ve had to use that several times now. It has made life so much easier. We highly recommend him.

Our experience with Greg was great! It was very easy to schedule the inspection, Greg responded quickly and worked with us to set up a time. He showed up promptly (always appreciated!) and was very professional and thorough with his inspection. He explained things in a concise manner, and answered any questions we had. A detailed report was sent to us very quickly as well. The report was easy to read, and Greg was clear about what aspects of the house should be addressed immediately and which could wait. Overall, we were super happy with our experience with Greg and will gladly recommend his services to anyone else looking for a trustworthy inspector. Thanks Greg!

I've used Greg a couple times now with my buyer clients. His reports are fantastic, especially when the buyer can't be there and needs a good reference. He's great at explaining things in an easy to understand way. Thanks, Greg!

When my seller needed a quick turnaround inspection as a buyer financing requirement, I immediately thought of Greg who I worked with before. Responsive, professional, knowledgeable, Greg met and EXCEEDED my expectations. We were able to get the home financing approved at the very last minute (during the scheduled closing!) and closed! I highly recommend Lucent Property Inspections!

Highly recommend Greg Bradle and Lucent Property Inspections. He is very thorough with the inspection and very transparent with the review. He spent a good amount of time with us personally at the end of the inspection and went through each page in detail. An email overview of what he found and what we discussed was received that same evening. The warranty and digital homeowner tracker he provided is an awesome added bonus! Very easy to work with and super easy to schedule, add on services if needed, and pay online. Highly recommend!

One downfall of working with service providers or contractors whom you do not know is that too often communications is very poor. This was not the case with my experience of working with Greg. Greg used text messaging, phone calls, emails, images and an on-line portal to relay information. His provision of a limited, 3 month warranty on specific parts of the inspected home was an unexpected bonus.
