Home Inspection
Make sure your home is safe, sound and secure. We provide peace of mind. Our process typically takes anywhere from 3 to 4 hours depending on the size of the home. We begin with the exterior and work our way to the interior and mechanical areas of the home.

Pest Inspection
Termites, carpenter ants and powder post beetles are just a few of the wood destroying organisms that can provide substantial damage to your property. We are trained and certified to recognize and identify insect damage. We are licensed by the PA Department of Agriculture as a pesticide application company (BU14589) and report on the NPMA-33 Form as required by most lenders.

Blower Door Testing
New energy codes require all new homes to receive a compliant blower door test. The air infiltration rate cannot exceed 5 air exchanges per hour, based on the UCC RAC modification to the code. Based on R303.1, if the tested rate is less than or equal to 5 air exchanges per hour, a whole home mechanical ventilation system is required to be installed. We work with builders, homeowners, and building code officials to ensure proper compliance with the code. Mike is a certified individual with the Building Performance Institute, BPI ID#:5025171.

Sewer Scope
Gelsick Home Inspection is pleased to offer sewer scope services. Using our professional grade camera, we are able to identify the material and condition of your lateral sewer line. Defects consisting of cracking, breakage, blockage, sludge, root growth, and debris can cost thousands of dollars to repair. These deficiencies are all things we can identify during the scope test. Along with a written report of our findings, you will also receive a link to a video so you can see what we see! This service is beneficial to both current and perspective homeowners!
Once you have had an inspection, the big question becomes, “What are any repairs going to cost?” In the world of real estate, time is of the essence and proper and effective negotiation requires facts. Home inspectors may be able to give a broad range on repair costs and even general contractors may not be able to provide estimates within a required time frame. This can make the negotiation process cumbersome and frustrating.
Gelsick Home Inspection, LLC is happy to be partnered with RepairPricer.com. After your inspection is complete, you have the option to have us submit your report to a network of repair experts. Within 24 hours you will have an accurate, zip code specific full cost estimate of any defects addressed during your inspection.

Disclosure: It is important you understand that the service provided by RepairPricer.com is purely for estimation and negotiation purposes. We do not guarantee that the prices we estimate for repairs on your report are the same that you will end up paying for that specific repair. Our pricing is based on the average cost for a similar repair in your area, and due to unknown factors or underlying issues that we are not privy to, actual repair cost may be substantially higher.
