Sellersville is a small borough in Upper-Central Bucks County along Route 152 and the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek, next to Perkasie and served by the Pennridge School District. Its housing includes late-1800s and early-1900s twins and Victorian singles near Main Street and the historic Sellersville Theater, mid-century ranches and Cape Cods, and newer homes in neighboring West Rockhill and Hilltown Townships. Inspection priorities include stone foundations, older electrical and plumbing, and shared party walls in historic twins; basement moisture and drainage near the creek; roofs and HVAC age; renovation quality; and EPA Zone 1 radon throughout. ValueGuard’s ASHI-certified inspectors serve Sellersville from our Bucks County team, with full pre-purchase inspections and add-on radon, sewer scope and water testing.

i. Why these homes are different

Small-town Bucks homes, big-picture inspections.

Most Sellersville homes were built between the 1900s and the 1960s. Here’s what a thorough home inspection in Sellersville focuses on:

i
Twins & Older Homes
Twins and early-1900s homes share walls and rooflines, so we look closely at shared flashing, attic fire separation, foundations and whether utilities are fully separated.
ii
Porches & Masonry
Front porches, brick and stone walls, mortar joints and chimneys all wear with age. Porch framing, roof tie-ins and repointing needs are common findings.
iii
Radon Zone 1
Bucks County, including Sellersville, is EPA Zone 1 — the highest radon-risk classification. Testing is essential on every purchase.
iv
Boilers, Wiring & Plumbing
Older boilers and furnaces, undersized electrical service, ungrounded circuits and galvanized or cast-iron plumbing are common in homes of this age.
v
Basement Water & Grading
Older basements and small lots are where we most often find seepage, efflorescence, sump issues, and downspouts that send water toward the foundation.
vi
Aging Sewer Laterals
Clay and cast-iron laterals that are 60 to 100 years old are prone to root intrusion and offsets. A camera scope documents the full line before you close.

Older homes, close to the creek

Many Sellersville homes are more than a century old, and some sit near the East Branch of the Perkiomen Creek. Our inspectors look closely at foundations, basement moisture, grading and drainage, plus the older wiring and plumbing these homes often still have. Because Bucks County is EPA Zone 1, every Sellersville inspection should include radon testing.

ii. The services that matter most

What to inspect in Sellersville.

Service i.
Home Inspection
A comprehensive evaluation of structure, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and major systems — calibrated to Sellersville’s historic twins, Victorian singles and mid-century homes — delivered as a photo-rich report the next business day. Condos from $329.
Service ii.
Sewer Scope Inspection
Strongly recommended for most Sellersville homes, where clay and cast-iron laterals have been underground for decades. Our camera travels the full lateral from cleanout to main and documents what it finds.
Service iii.
Radon Testing
Bucks County is EPA Zone 1, the highest radon-risk tier. Our PA DEP-certified technicians use tamper-resistant electronic monitors with 48-hour turnaround. Mitigation, if needed, typically runs $800 to $2,500.
Service iv.
Termite / WDI & Mold Testing
Termite and wood-destroying-insect inspections are required by most lenders, and mold testing is key for older basements and any home with signs of moisture. Both can be added in a single visit.

Packages save more: Value Package $829 (save $149), Value + Sewer Scope $1,108 (save $199), and Full Protection $1,457 (save up to $249). Get an instant quote online or call (215) 860-3150.
Is radon testing necessary in Sellersville, PA?
+
Yes. Bucks County, including Sellersville, is EPA Zone 1 — the highest radon-risk classification. Radon levels vary dramatically from house to house, even next door, so testing is the only way to know — and it applies to new construction just as much as older homes. Our DEP-certified technicians use tamper-resistant electronic monitors and deliver results within 48 hours.
What are the most common issues in Sellersville homes?
+
Common findings include older wiring and undersized electrical service, aging boilers, furnaces and water heaters, porch and masonry wear, basement water and grading problems, roof and flashing wear, root intrusion in older sewer laterals, and elevated radon. Our home inspectors explain what’s routine for a home of its age versus what’s worth negotiating.
What should I look for when buying a twin in Sellersville?
+
Twins share a party wall, so the inspection looks at the shared roofline and flashing, fire separation in the attic, the foundation and any shared drainage, and whether utilities are fully separated. We also note maintenance on the attached side that could affect your half.
Do older Sellersville twins need anything extra in an inspection?
+
Twins share a party wall and often a roofline, so we look at how the two halves meet, check for fire separation issues in the attic, and examine shared drainage. Older twins also deserve close attention to stone foundations, knob-and-tube or older wiring, and galvanized plumbing.
Do I need a sewer scope in Sellersville?
+
For most Sellersville homes, yes. Older clay and cast-iron laterals are prone to root intrusion, cracks and offsets, and repairs can cost $10,000 or more. A camera scope costs a few hundred dollars and documents the full line before you close.
Can I attend the home inspection?
+
Absolutely — and we encourage it. Our home inspectors walk you through every finding in real time and answer your questions on the spot. Most Sellersville inspections run 2.5 to 3.5 hours depending on the size and age of the home.
How quickly can I schedule a home inspection in Sellersville?
+
Typically within 1–3 business days, often same-week. We inspect seven days a week and deliver reports by email the next business day — most of the time the same day. For tight contingency windows, call us directly at (215) 860-3150.
