STORM INSPECTIONS
Having your home inspected after a major weather event is extremely important. So many things can happen that no one ever thinks to look for or will see until the repair process is possibly complete.

Beth Morris
We have known Jon since his birth, literally. Watched him grow up as a solid young boy into a strong honest man-when most people would have “blamed” circumstances to sit back! He is not only honest but nice too!! Jon, Mr. Ken and I pray God’s riches blessings upon your new endeavor. People will be very fortunate to have you on their team! So very proud of you!!
Very professional and detailed work. Jon was knowledgeable and took time to point out things to consider both in the future and items to immediately mention to the homeseller.
I highly recommend Classic Home Inspections LLC, they showed up in a timely manner, performed a quality inspection, and had the report emailed to me within 45 minutes of the inspection being complete. They were very flexible on scheduling my appointment and overall did a great job.
Great price
Jon was professional and friendly. He explained everything in his detailed report so that we understood any issues in our new construction home. We HIGHLY recommend Classic Home Inspections!
FAQs
Buying or building a home often comes with a lot of questions. Below are answers to some of the most common questions homeowners and buyers have about home inspections and our services in Southwest Louisiana.
WHAT DOES A HOME INSPECTION INCLUDE?
A home inspection includes a visual only inspection of a structure's major components. This will include the roof, exterior surfaces such as walls, windows, soffits, facia, and gutters, including the ground around the home for drainage away from the structure and the perimeter of the slab if present. All accessible interior spaces as well as the HVAC systems, electrical, plumbing, DWV, built in appliances, the attic and all visible framing members and insulation.
HOW LONG DOES A HOME INSPECTION TAKE?
All home inspections are different as far as how long it will take. Most take somewhere between two (2) and four (4) hours, much depending on the size, age, and condition of the home. Larger homes or homes that have not been well kept can take much longer. No home will be like the other and no inspection is the same. When it comes to time, we want to be thorough and complete.
SHOULD BUYERS ATTEND THE HOME INSPECTION?
All buyers are encouraged and welcome to be present for the inspection. Being on site for the process gives them better insight as to what we as the inspector can see and not see, allows them to ask questions about specifics they are concerned about, and just to gain additional knowledge about the home itself.
DO NEW HOMES REALLY NEED TO BE INSPECTED?
Yes, we can and should inspect brand new homes! No home will ever be perfect, but if we can catch problems before the slab is poured, the walls are closed in, or you move in, it will help make your dream home safer and more comfortable in the long run.
WHAT IS A PHASE INSPECTION?
Phase inspections are done along the way during the construction of a new home. These can be done in many different ways, but typically just before the slab is poured or the foundation is finished, during framing before insulation goes in, and before final payment to the contractor.
WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE A MOLD INSPECTION?
Mold inspections are recommended anytime there has been a significant weather event that causes power outages for an extended period, or anytime there has been significant damage and repairs are necessary. Anytime the home has been closed up for any length of time without someone living in it, or if there are health concerns that just need confirmation of clean air. Air samples can be collected quickly to determine whether there are elevated levels of mold spores in the home.
HOW SOON WILL I RECEIVE MY INSPECTION REPORT?
Most home inspection reports should be delivered on the same day as the inspection; however, in some cases, it may take a little longer. All reports will include clear descriptions, along with photos and videos of any problem areas, to make it even easier to understand what the inspector found.
