Buyer's Home Inspections
If you are buying your new home, before you make your decision, a Buyer’s Home Inspection is important to get a glimpse at the home’s condition. Problems discovered could determine what could become a major expense now or in the future. By investing in a thorough inspection upfront, you can avoid any surprises and ensure a smoother transaction without any major problems that could derail the deal.
Seller's Pre-Listing Home Inspections
When you are planning on selling your home, it is also a good idea to get a Seller’s Pre-listing Home Inspection. By doing this, you determine items that need addressing prior to putting your home on the market. By being a proactive home seller you can avoid deficiencies that could either postpone or complicate the sale.
New Construction Inspections
We all think that buying “new” would mean “no issues” (kind of like buying a new vs used car). However, that is not the case. When buying a new home you also have to think of problems, poor craftsmanship that the builder may have not addressed, or may have just covered up. Cocco Inspection Company acting as an independent inspector will become your trusted eyes towards the purchase of your new home with our New Construction Inspection Services.
One Year Builder Warranty Inspections
Most new homes include a 12 month warranty; therefore, a home inspection at the 11th month is highly recommended. This builder warranty inspection can discover items still covered by the warranty, as well as items that could become an expensive issue in the future. Similarly, items that need to be fixed before the warranty expires.
Annual Home Maintenance Inspection
Regular home maintenance is essential to keep your property in good condition. An Annual Home Maintenance Inspection can help identify issues that need attention before they become major problems, as well as provide recommendations on how to improve the property’s overall condition. This type of inspection typically covers areas such as the roof, gutters, foundation, HVAC systems, plumbing, and electrical systems. It can help you stay on top of necessary repairs and maintenance tasks to ensure that your home remains safe and comfortable for you and your family.
Construction Draw Inspections
During the construction of a custom home, there will be times when the financing bank will need a Construction Draw inspection, to determine the completion status of certain parts of the construction process, in order to release funds. This type of inspection is limited to travel time, please call me at (945) 233-8874 to discuss if needed.
+ Pool & Spa Inspections
As Certified Pool & Spa Inspectors, we provide Pool Inspections as an add-on service to our comprehensive home inspection package. We also offer standalone pool inspections for those who specifically need this service. A careful assessment of your pool and equipment is performed to ensure that they are in good working order, providing you with a detailed report of our findings. Whether you choose to include it as part of a larger inspection or opt for a standalone service, you can trust us to thoroughly evaluate your pool’s safety and functionality.

Plumbing
Faucets, drains and visible components of the plumbing system are inspected to make sure that your home has a properly functioning system.
Roof Covering
The roof covering inspection makes sure that your roof is in condition to do its job. Which is, making sure your house has protection against the elements, mainly rain. Also, preventing water from leaking into the structure and causing damage.
HVAC
Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) – Having a proper functioning Air Conditioner and heat in the North Texas area is necessary due to extreme weather. With this in mind, we investigate the symptoms that could relate to a HVAC System, not performing to its intended purpose.
Deck
Our deck inspection includes a thorough examination of the deck’s structure, support posts, railing systems, and stairs. We also check for rotting wood, insect infestations, and other signs of damage that could compromise the safety of your outdoor living space.
Electrical
Electrical service entrance and electrical panel are inspected to asses proper installation. Additionally, we determine the presence of any dangers lurking in from the actual panel or installation. Also include with this inspection, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, electrical outlets, switches, and GFCI receptacles will be inspected for proper function.
Chimney
The chimney inspection aims to ensure the safety of your home and family by checking the condition of the flue liners, chimney caps, and masonry. We will determine if there are any cracks, blockages, or other issues that could pose a risk to your health and property.
Attic
The attic inspection is intended to identify potential problems that may not be visible from the ground level. We will check for adequate ventilation, insulation levels, pest infestations, and water leaks that could lead to mold growth or other hazardous conditions.
Appliances
We also inspect installed appliances to make sure they work properly.
Structure
The integrity of the your home relies on its foundation and skeleton (frame). Although, these components are mostly hidden and completely out of sight, we are trained to look for signs of issues hidden within your home. In other words, we can help you determine whether something is an issue that may only need monitoring, or something that requires the intervention of a professional.
Exterior/Interior
Window, doors, walls, and handrails (to list a few), are part of the inspection. Even though it is not meant to be an exhaustive or aesthetic inspection, we always look for areas that could require excessive cost to the homeowner. Most importantly, areas that could even be dangerous for the occupants and visitors.
Moisture Intrusion
We know how important it is to keep moisture out of your home. That’s why we provide a moisture intrusion inspection that covers areas prone to water damage such as basements, crawl spaces, bathrooms, and kitchen areas. We use advanced tools and techniques to detect hidden leaks or moisture problems that could lead to costly repairs down the line.
