FURGESON INSPECTIONS

An Essential Element in Home Buying

Our Services

Furgeson Inspections LLC is a trusted home inspector in Gladwin, MI serving Harrison, Clare, Beaverton, West Branch and surrounding Mid-Michigan communities.

Residential Inspections

A professional home inspection helps uncover hidden issues before you buy or sell a home. Our thorough inspection evaluates the structure, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC systems, and more to identify potential safety concerns and costly defects. We provide detailed reports so you can make confident decisions about your investment.

Well Inspections

A well inspection evaluates the condition and operation of the private well system supplying the home. We inspect accessible well components, check flow, and help identify potential issues with the system. This inspection helps ensure the home has a reliable and properly functioning water supply.

Water Quality Testing

Testing the quality of a home’s water supply is important for the health and safety of your family. Water samples can be tested for bacteria, nitrates, and other contaminants depending on your needs or loan requirements. Laboratory results help determine whether the water is safe to drink.

Septic System Inspections

Septic system inspections help identify potential issues before they become expensive repairs or system failures. We evaluate the septic tank, distribution components, and drain field conditions when accessible. Early detection can save thousands of dollars and prevent unexpected problems after moving into the home.

Mold Assessment

Moisture problems can lead to mold growth inside a home. During the inspection we look for visible signs of moisture intrusion, staining, or conditions that may contribute to mold growth. If concerns are observed, further evaluation or laboratory testing may be recommended.

Wood Destroying Organism (WDO) Inspections

Wood destroying organisms such as termites, carpenter ants, and other insects can cause serious structural damage to a home. A WDO inspection looks for evidence of current or past infestation as well as conditions that may attract pests. Identifying these issues early can help prevent costly structural damage.

Radon Testing

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that can enter homes through foundations and crawlspaces. Long-term exposure to elevated radon levels is a leading cause of lung cancer in the United States. Our radon testing helps determine if levels in the home are within safe limits.

Sewer Scope Inspections

A sewer scope inspection uses a specialized camera to inspect the home’s main sewer line. This inspection can identify blockages, tree root intrusion, cracks, or damaged piping that may lead to costly repairs. Sewer line issues are often hidden underground, making this inspection an important add-on service.

					Incredibly happy to have reached out to Scott at Furgeson Inspections. Scott inspected a 2nd home purchase for me in Harrison Michigan, on Lily Lake. Being downstate I wanted to choose someone local I could trust. Scott returned my call immediately, scheduled quickly, and performed a thorough review of the property. The report was promptly received same day and very clear to understand. Not being on property during the inspection, Scott spent significant time on the phone with me to review questions and ensure I fully understood everything he reported. Even better, he provided several recommendations on minor remediations and local, trusted companies to assist. If mid-Michigan is your target area, then Scott & Furgeson Inspections is who you should call first!!
