These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of the Sahm Home Inspections website and the home inspection services we provide across Chicago and the Chicagoland area, Illinois. By using this website or requesting service from us, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site or our services.
Our services
Sahm Home Inspections provides residential home inspection services, including full home inspections, radon testing, sewer scoping, chimney camera inspections, mold inspection and testing, indoor air quality testing, electrical panel mapping, and infrared thermal imaging. Descriptions of services on this website are general in nature; the work performed is based on the specific property and the scope agreed upon before the inspection. A home inspection is a visual, non-invasive examination of the readily accessible systems and components of a home at the time of inspection, and is not a warranty, guarantee, or insurance policy against future conditions.
Scheduling, pricing, and payment
We provide honest, upfront pricing based on the property type and square footage, confirmed before the inspection. You agree to provide safe and reasonable access to the property and its systems at the scheduled time. Payment is due as agreed at or before the time of service unless other arrangements are made in writing. If you need to reschedule or cancel, please contact us as soon as possible.
Reports
We deliver a written report, typically the same day, describing the conditions observed at the time of inspection. The report reflects the inspector’s observations and professional opinion on the readily accessible areas examined and does not predict future performance or reveal concealed or inaccessible conditions.
Warranties and guarantees
We stand behind our work with a 200% satisfaction guarantee, and full inspections include a 90-day limited warranty administered by a third-party warranty provider, whose specific terms and coverage are provided with your inspection. Except as expressly stated, our services are provided without other warranties, express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sahm Home Inspections is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising out of or related to your use of this website or our services. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
