What an inspector watches for in Fountain Hills
Hillside lots put grading and drainage at the front of the report. Retaining walls, site drainage away from the foundation, and how the lot sheds a monsoon downpour all get real attention here.

Common questions
Booking an inspection in Fountain Hills
Do you inspect homes in Fountain Hills?
Yes — Fountain Hills is part of the AZ Home Inspection Services area. Residential inspections start at $285, and every inspection is performed by Bob Clardy, ASHI Certified Inspector #268522.
How long does a home inspection take?
Most residential inspections take a few hours on site, and the length scales with the size, age and complexity of the property. A larger custom home with multiple HVAC systems, a pool and long roof runs takes considerably longer than a small production build. You are welcome to walk along for all of it — Bob will teach you as much as you want to learn.
How much does a home inspection cost in Arizona?
AZHI residential inspections start at $285. The final price depends on the size and age of the property and any add-on services such as mold testing, indoor air quality testing, a termite report or a pool and spa inspection. Call 480-805-2025 with the square footage, approximate age and location and you'll get a firm number.
What does a home inspection include?
AZHI inspects and reports on six major areas: structural systems, roofing, electrical systems, plumbing, heating and air conditioning, and built-in appliances. Every inspection follows the Standards of Practice established by the American Society of Home Inspectors.
When do I get the report?
Before Bob leaves. Reports are finished on-site and delivered as a visual HTML and PDF document with photographs against every finding. You also get an email with a link to the report, and an inspection review over Zoom if you want one.
