On the lookout for defects
Don't leave your home purchase to chance - be in the know on your potential new home & arrive at closing with confidence! I would be honored to inspect a home for you.
218 Inspect Home Inspections is a homegrown, Duluth based home inspection company serving the greater Duluth, MN area. I (Frank Lundeen) answer the phones, do all of the inspections, and take care of all of the behind the scenes stuff. By supporting 218 Inspect, you are supporting an authentic, Duluth based small business. Whether you are a first time home buyer or have owned many homes - I look forward to providing you the info and context you'll need to make educated decisions prior to closing & helping to familiarize you with a home you may be about to buy.
My Pledge To You:
Friendly, Honest, & Impartial: My inspections serve as a professionally guided tour of a client's potential new home, and serve to objectively report on both the good and bad of a home.
I am prompt: I respond to inquiries, show up to appointments early, schedule inspections within 1 week of the inquiry, and provide an in-depth home inspection report the same day your inspection is done via email.
I am clean & respectful: It is an honor every time a client asks for me to inspect a home, and I act like it! Every time I enter a home I wear clean booties over my shoes, clean up after myself, and leave no trace.
I am thorough, experienced, & use modern technology: Every inspection I do strictly adheres to InterNACHI's Standard of Practice, and then goes above and beyond offering significant additional value in several ways. A few ways I go above these standards include inspection of the electrical system (such as an inspection of the internals of the main and sub electrical panels, checking all modern outlets for full functionality including USB outlets, GFCI, and AFCI), using cutting edge technology including Infrared Thermal Imaging on every inspection to identify home energy efficiency improvement opportunities & possible hidden mechanical issues (such as electrical, insulation, or heating / cooling system issues), using moisture meters to detect moist spots in the house, and using a water pressure gauge to confirm appropriate water pressure. The latest in Infrared Thermal Imaging technology is included with every inspection - including IR Thermal Images in your Home Inspection Report! For a small additional fee, I offer a 40 point Home Energy Inspection & report - identifying opportunities for energy savings, and where your greatest return on investment will be for home improvement projects. Check out my SERVICES or FAQ pages for a whole lot more information on my inspections.
I am accredited & insured: I am a Certified Professional Inspector (CPI) with InterNACHI & accredited by ICA to do home inspections within the state of MN. Beyond InterNACHI's exhaustive CPI Certification, I'm also specifically certified by InterNACHI in the following areas: InfraRed Thermal Imaging, First Time Home Buyers, Residential Property Inspector, Chimney, Kitchen, Pet Friendly, and COVID-19 (see the certification seals below). I'm constantly working on continuing education through various home inspection focused, accredited college courses.
Value: I provide overwhelming value to my clients for all of the above reasons. Regarding pricing, my rates are based on the size of the home, & number of bedrooms/bathrooms/garages - for details check out my Services page.
