Client Satisfaction
Founded in the heart of Mount Washington, Reliable Inspections began with a singular vision: to bring architectural precision to the residential inspection industry. Our founder, a veteran structural consultant, noticed a gap between standard municipal checklists and the comprehensive understanding homeowners actually needed.
What started as a one-man operation has grown into Kentucky's premier inspection firm. We've built our reputation on the belief that quality shouldn't be a premium service — it should be the standard. We don't just look for problems; we look for solutions and longevity.
Today, our commitment to quality remains unshakable. Whether it's a historic Victorian in Louisville or a new build in Bowling Green, we approach every square foot with the same attention to detail.

How much does a home inspection cost?
The cost of a home inspection depends on the size, age, and condition of the property, as well as any additional services like radon or mold testing. We provide upfront pricing so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.
What does a home inspection include?
Our inspections cover all major components of the home including the roof, foundation, structure, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, insulation, windows, doors, and more. We carefully evaluate both the interior and exterior to identify any potential issues or safety concerns.
Do you offer additional services like radon or mold testing?
Yes. In addition to standard home inspections, we offer radon testing, mold testing, and thermal imaging to help uncover hidden issues and ensure your home is safe.
How long does a home inspection take?
Most inspections take between 2 to 4 hours depending on the size and condition of the home. We take the time needed to ensure a thorough and accurate evaluation.
When will I receive my inspection report?
You will typically receive your detailed inspection report within 24 to 48 hours. Each report includes photos, clear explanations, and recommendations so you can confidently understand the property's condition.
Should I attend the inspection?
While it's not required, we highly recommend attending. This allows you to ask questions, see findings firsthand, and better understand the home before making a decision.
What happens if issues are found during the inspection?
It's normal for inspections to uncover issues. Our job is to clearly explain what we find, how serious it is, and what steps you may want to take next so you can make an informed decision.
Do you offer commercial inspections?
Yes, we provide commercial inspections that evaluate the structure, systems, and overall condition of commercial properties to help investors and business owners make informed decisions.
Why should I hire a licensed home inspector?
A licensed inspector ensures your inspection follows industry standards and is conducted professionally and thoroughly. This gives you an unbiased and accurate understanding of the property before moving forward.
What should I do before the inspection?
Make sure all areas of the home are accessible, including the attic, basement, crawl spaces, and major systems. This helps ensure a complete and efficient inspection.
Can I use the inspection report to negotiate?
Yes. Many buyers use the inspection report to request repairs, credits, or price adjustments based on the findings.
Do you inspect new construction homes?
Yes. Even newly built homes can have issues. An inspection ensures everything was properly installed and meets expected standards before you move in.
