Questions about Guarantees
What does the gaurantee cover?
-
It covers everything in the standard home inspection. Specifically items that should have been caught during the home inspection, but got past us, in accordance with the inspection standards of practice (SOP).
-
Examples include material defects; damaged electric service components, damaged/inoperable windows/doors, Inoperable or defective equipment eg; water heater, hvac, visibly rotten wood, missing insulation, adverse crawlspace conditions such a moisture, rot, standing water, plumbing and electrical defects. We will cover the cost of repair up to $1,500 if needed. Because we are so focused on the major concerns, it is our experience that the few call backs we have had are very minor, or false alarms and usually can be easily resolved.
-
What is not covered?
- Items that were functioning normally on the day of the inspection, but fail sometime after the inspection (Latent defects).
- Defects that could not have been discovered at the inspection. These include leaks from the roof if there was no rain at time of inspection or inspection items limited because utilities, gas, water, electric is off.
- Any cosmetic damage to wall, ceiling, paint, floors, cabinets and interior finishes that could have been caused by moving.
- Drain blockage of any kind. We run lots of clear water through drains, but cannot predict blockage due to normal use (toilet paper, food debris, soap suds, waste, etc).
- Nothing that was identified during the inspection or described in the inspection report as limited, concealed, restricted or not accesible.
- Nothing outside the inspection Standards of Practice (SOP)
What does the gaurantee cost?
- Free! Our in-house guarantees are part of our client satisfaction and quality assurance policies and company culture. Every home inspection is covered at no charge to the client.
Isn't the gaurantee the same as a warranty
- No. A home warranty covers things that break after the inspection, whereas the a guarantee covers service performance of the inspection. Basially poor performace of the inspector, or defects that should have found within the scope of an home inspection, but were overlooked.
- Beware of “free” warranties that are used as sales gimicks (website gizmos), tranfere inspectors liability and are limited in coverage.
Is there a time limit?
- Yes. Since this is a guarantee of our work, and not a warranty, it does have a time limit. You need to let us know right away if you think we missed something. You have 90 days from the date of the inspection to notify us using the PDF form or Online form. and we will respond within 24 hrs.
Are there other restritions?
-
Yes – You must notify us immediately and in written form prior to making any repairs. PDF form or Online form.
-
If repairs are performed without notifying us first, the Guarantee is void. We do not reimburse client for repairs performed without prior investigation and approval. We reserve the right to verify that the item should have been included in the report, within the scope of a home inspection, and have an opportunity to make the repairs using our contractor of choice.
-
Items that can be repaired will not be replaced if repairs can be performed.
-
Claims must be submitted withing 90 days of the inspection.
- Any claims must be for items that fall within the scope of the home inspection SOP as defined in the ASHI/InterNachi standards of practice, and our inspection agreement.
- Items that do not fall within the scope of a home inspection are not covered.
- Personaly property or ancillary systems such as; sprinkler systems, private well systems, WDO, surrouns sound, low voltage systems, networks (lANs), kitchen/laundry appliances.
- Inspection items that were not accessible at time of inspection due to restrictions such as; personal property storage, locked rooms, lack of utilities, concealed or intentionally covered. Please note: Home inspectors are not permitted to move personal items.
Isn't a gaurantee just a way to limit the companys' liability ?
- We’ll recommend corrective actions needed to clear any problems notes
- A virginia liscensed contractor should complete any structural repair work and provide evidence of completion such as a completed work order and reciepts for payment.
- The VDACS licensed extermination company that provides any required treatments such as termite or fungicide, should provide a “clear” letter.

Top-rated Inspection services company in Southeast Virginia and Northeast North Carolina. The honest. organic, and extraordinary reviews we receive from our clients are a testimony to our level of commitment, professionalism, and trust.
The entire experience and interaction was professional and very down to earth.Everything was explained at a level that I could understand, which is much appreciated! I would definitely recommend and refer my family and friends to call upon Anthony Gilbar to be the man to perform their home inspection without reservation. Customer service is very hard to find , but outstanding customer service almost never exists, but Anthony provided us with outstanding customer service!
Inspection was performed quickly and was very detailed. Emily was easy to work with and flexible, even when we called her late in the evening from Guam. I will likely use final analysis for any future inspections.
Great customer service, good price, very helpful and professional. The follow up was very informational as well. In general highly recommended.
Ms Washington did a great job on the home inspection. She ws extremely thorough and her reporting (both verbal and written) was exceptional.
We highly recommend Anthony from Final Analysis! He is very professional, knowledgeable, personable and very thorough. He did an excellent job and we will use him and Final Analysis for any future needs.
Although I did not like what was found, you need Final Analysis Property Inspection to get your house ready for sale. Emily is an awesome inspector and has helped use discover challenges with the home ahead of the sale. They are thorough and meticulous. A must for all home buyers and sellers.
We had a pleasure of meeting Emily and the overall experience was great! Emily was very thorough and she really did an awesome job. The report was very detailed, it comes with videos and pictures which we truly appreciate. She was prompt and went through every issue with us. I recommend Final Analysis to anyone needing home inspection. Emily is awesome! 😊
Anthony from Final Analysis was an excellent property inspector and provided a detailed, thorough, and comprehensive report. He walked us through the entire process and report results, answering all of our questions. We now feel confident in moving forward on our home sale as we know what issues need resolved. I can't stress enough how important a thorough inspection is for your property, as buyer or seller, Final Analysis is the only company I'd recommend.
I spoke to Dave over the phone to set up the inspection for my mom's new condo. He was patient, kind, and informative. Emily was our inspector and she provided a thorough report. My mom was present for the inspection and she said that Emily was helpful, diligent, and nice to talk to. My experience is that the company owners/employees take pride in what they do and don't rush through it to get to the next customer, which we really appreciated. I also felt the prices were reasonable considering that they did an inspection of the property including the fireplace/chimney and they also looked for bugs/pests. I would definitely use this company again.
I had a wonderful experience with Final Analysis Property Inspections. Anthony inspected a new-home purchase and provided me a thoughtful and comprehensive review of his findings. I was unable to attend the inspection but he called me afterward, explained everything thoroughly, and answered all of my questions. I was impressed by both his professionalism and candor, and feel confident acting on his recommendations. A truly amazing experience. I will use Final Analysis for all my future endeavors. Thank you!
Dan was very thorough with explaining the process from start to finish and leaving me comfortable enough to know he was very experienced.Then Anthony was the inspector that did the job, and he too was very detailed from taking videos, to descriptive voice notes. Thank you again for such great service. I would definitely recommend you guys!
I wasn't quite sure what to expect from this company, however they have met and exceeded my expectations. They were the first ones there and had already started to inspect the property. Anthony and Brit were beyond professional and answered all my questions and concerns. They were super polite as well as respectful of the property and it's owners. I would highly recommend this company. I had an overall inspection done, that included termite and moisture inspection. They were very thorough in their work! I am a very satisfied customer and would recommend them without reservations.
Dan & Emily are awesome! Phenomenal service and super professional. Great details in the inspection reporting but still very easy to read and navigate. Could not recommend this company more.
We used Final Analysis to inspect a potential home to purchase. They were very professional, arrived on time and did exactly what they said. The house had minimal issues which was great but the things that were notable were shared and debriefed appropriately.
Jason and team did an excellent job! They were thorough and really paid attention to detail. They are not alarmists, but give it to you straight! They explain everything in easy to understand terms and made the process so stress-free! Jason explained everything at the end perfectly and answered all of our questions. By far one of the smoothest pieces of the buying process! Thank you!!
