Inspections for Every Stage of the Sale
I inspect homes for anyone buying or selling a home, almost anywhere in North Georgia. With accurate information, people can make informed decisions about the purchase or repair of a home.
Pre-Listing Inspection
Sellers find and handle issues before a buyer's inspector does, and can market the home as pre-inspected.

Why Choose Complete Home Inspections
Education and Training
When I am not inspecting homes, I spend most of my time furthering my knowledge by taking classes, online courses and reading to improve my service to you.
Same Day Reports With Pictures
The reports I prepare include pictures within the report to show how the home looks or to identify any defects. The report is delivered the same day.
Scheduled Around Your Time
The inspection is scheduled around your time, so you may be present. We encourage you to be at the inspection or at least come towards the end, so you can ask questions.
A Good Fair Price
I have very limited overhead. My only costs are keeping my certifications current and paying for classes, so those savings go to you.
Meet Your Inspector
Steve Clarkson, Owner and Certified Master Inspector
I have lived in Cherokee County for 30 years and in Georgia for over 40. I am one of the few inspectors who actually answers his own phone, unless I am on an inspection. I have found most people want to talk directly to the one that will be looking at their home, not talk to an answering service.
