One inspector / One conversation
I’ll show you
what I see.
I’m Ellis Rowe. I run Plumbrye so the person who answers your questions is also the person looking through the house.
Information you
can act on.
A house doesn’t need to be flawless to be right for you. It does help to understand what you’re taking on.
I describe what I observed, where I saw it and why it deserves attention. When something needs another trade’s expertise, the report says so. When access prevents an inspection, that goes in the report too.
I don’t sell repairs or decide whether you should buy. My job is to help you have a more informed conversation about the house.
Inside your report
Location.
Observation.
Next step.
A digital report with labeled photos and a summary of the main concerns. Maintenance notes sit alongside findings that warrant further evaluation, with the limitations plainly stated.
It arrives within 24 hours of the home inspection. A follow-up phone conversation is included if something needs explaining.
Your day, in order
No need to
know the jargon.
Bring your questions and your inspection deadline. We’ll agree on a time once the seller or agent confirms access.
Appointments are Monday–Saturday, 8am–5pm. Sunday is closed. Travel is included within 20 miles of Maple Crossing; 21–40 miles adds $35 per visit.

Before I arrive
Confirm that utilities are on and access is clear. Ask the seller or agent to unlock panels, attic hatches and crawl space doors. Share any specific concerns.
-
While I inspect
Most homes up to 2,500 sq ft take 2–3 hours; larger homes take 3–4 hours. You can attend, or meet me for the final 30 minutes. I’ll handle the equipment and show you the findings safely.
-
After the walkthrough
Read the report within 24 hours. Note your questions and discuss next steps with your agent and the relevant trades. Radon and sewer results arrive on the separate timelines on the prices page.
Start with the house.
An approximate size and a deadline are enough to begin the conversation.
