“We had an exceptional experience with Ray from the moment we hired him. His communication was prompt and he arrived on location early. Ray was kind and warm and immediately made us comfortable upon meeting him. He worked hard the entire 3 hours he was there and was extremely thorough, taking care to point things of interest out to us as he went. He was calm, professional, honest and knowledgeable. Ray gave us the information and professional opinions we needed to make an informed decision, ultimately walking away from a house that saved us from a nightmare situation down the road. Highly, highly recommend!!!”

Radon is a colorless, odorless gas common in Illinois basements — and the leading cause of lung cancer among non-smokers. We test it accurately so you know exactly where your home stands before you close.

Chicago’s older clay and cast-iron sewer laterals crack, sag, and fill with roots. We run a camera down the line so a five-figure surprise never shows up after closing.

A flashlight from the roof does not tell the whole story. We send a camera up the flue to check the liner, joints, and masonry for cracks and blockages that are easy to miss.

When will I get my report?
You get a detailed, photo-rich report the same day — usually the same night — through an interactive online portal you can filter, search, and share with your agent or contractor.
Are you licensed and certified?
Yes. Owner Ray Sahm is a Certified Master Inspector (CMI), an InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector, and ASHI-certified, fully licensed by the State of Illinois (License No. 450.012665).
