What Affects the Cost
- Report type — inspection vs. stamped design is the biggest cost driver
- Property size — larger homes require more time and analysis
- Foundation type — slab, crawl space, or basement affects inspection time
- Scope — a crack assessment costs less than a full structural evaluation
- Urgency — standard turnaround is 3–5 days; 24–48 hour rush adds 25–50%
- Travel — properties outside our standard service area may have a travel fee
- Complexity — historic homes, unusual construction, or multi-issue evaluations cost more
