Scheduling & booking

How do I schedule a home inspection with ValueGuard?+
You can book online in a few minutes using our scheduling form, or call Jim’s client services team at (215) 860-3150. Either way, we’ll confirm your property details, timing and any add-on services, and send you a confirmation.
How quickly can you schedule my inspection?+
Because Jim’s team books 500+ inspections a month, we can usually get you scheduled quickly — often within a few days and frequently sooner. Let us know your contingency deadline when you call and we’ll work to fit your timeline.
What information do I need to book?+
It helps to have the property address, your preferred dates, your contact information, and your agent’s details if you’re working with one. If you already know you want add-ons like radon, mold, termite (WDI) or a sewer scope, mention them when you book so we can plan the visit.
Can I request a specific inspector?+
Yes. Just tell Jim’s team the inspector you’d like when you book, and we’ll do our best to match your inspection with them based on availability and location.
Can I add radon, mold, termite or a sewer scope to my inspection?+
Yes. ValueGuard offers add-on services — including radon testing, mold testing, lead testing, sewer scope inspections and termite / wood-destroying insect (WDI) inspections — that can be handled alongside your home inspection. Just ask Jim’s team when you schedule and we’ll build them into the appointment.
What if I need to reschedule?+
No problem — real estate timelines shift all the time. Just call Jim’s team as soon as you know, and we’ll move your appointment to a new date that works. Clients regularly mention how easy the team makes date changes.
Should I schedule the inspection, or should my agent?+
Either works. Many buyers book directly, and many real estate agents schedule on their client’s behalf. Jim’s team is happy to coordinate with you, your agent, or both to line up access and timing.

The inspection & your report

How long does a home inspection take?+
Most single-family home inspections take about 2.5 to 4 hours, depending on the size, age and condition of the property. Larger or older homes and any add-on services can add time; Jim’s team will give you an estimate when you schedule.
When will I get my inspection report?+
Your comprehensive, photo-documented report is typically delivered by email the next business day, written in plain language so you can act on it right away and share it with your agent or attorney.
What areas does ValueGuard serve?+
ValueGuard inspects homes and commercial properties throughout Philadelphia, Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery Counties in Southeastern Pennsylvania, with additional coverage in Berks and Lancaster Counties, PA and New Castle County, DE. If you’re not sure whether we cover your area, just ask.
How much does a home inspection cost?+
Pricing depends on the size, age and type of property and any add-on services you choose. For current pricing, see our inspection pricing page or ask Jim’s team for a free quote, and we’ll give you an exact figure before you book.
