How it works

What to expect, from booking to your finished report.

A home inspection should not be a mystery. Here is exactly how the process works with Glacier Creek Inspections, and the tools we use to do it properly.

The process Our equipment

The process

Five steps, start to finish.

Most of the work happens before and after the walkthrough, so you are never left guessing.

  1. 1
    Online or by phone

    Book your inspection

    Choose your service, pick a date and time, and enter the property details in our online scheduler. Prefer to talk it through? Call or text and we will set it up with you.

  2. 2
    Before the day

    We confirm the details

    We confirm your appointment and make sure access is arranged, whether that is a lockbox, the listing agent, or the owner. Share the time with your agent so they can plan to join if they would like.

  3. 3
    Inspection day

    We inspect the home, top to bottom

    We work through the property in a consistent order so nothing gets skipped. The time it takes depends on the size and age of the home.

    • Exterior, grounds, and drainage
    • Roof, gutters, and flashing
    • Attic and ventilation
    • Crawl space or foundation
    • Electrical, heating, and plumbing
    • Interior rooms, windows, and doors
    • Thermal imaging throughout
    • Photos of every finding
  4. 4
    Within 24 hours

    You receive your digital report

    Your report arrives online with photos, organized findings, and thermal images. It is built to read easily on a phone or a computer, and to share with your agent.

  5. 5
    After the report

    Questions are welcome

    Read through the report, then reach out if anything is unclear. We are happy to explain a finding or what it means for your decision.

Our equipment

The tools behind the findings.

Good inspections combine a trained eye with the right instruments. Here is what we bring to every job.

Thermal camera

Shows temperature differences on surfaces that the eye cannot see. It helps point us to missing insulation, air leaks, and areas that may hold moisture.

Included with every inspection

Moisture meter

Lets us check suspected damp areas directly, so a thermal flag turns into a measured finding and not a guess.

Used for confirming moisture

Electrical testers

Used to check outlets for correct wiring, grounding, and protection, and to help spot hazards at receptacles and fixtures.

Used for outlets and circuits

High-output lighting

Crawl spaces, attics, and utility areas are dark. Strong lighting lets us see framing, insulation, and the signs of past moisture.

Used for attics and crawl spaces

Ladders and access gear

Lets us get safely to roof edges, hatches, and panels, and to look at components up close instead of from the ground.

Used for roof and attic access

Spectora reporting

Our inspection software organizes findings, photos, and thermal images into a clean digital report you can open on any device.

Delivered within 24 hours

Tools help, but they do not replace judgment. Every reading and image is checked against what we see in person before it goes in your report.
