Home inspections in Portland.

From Craftsman bungalows on the close-in eastside to new infill and hillside contemporaries, we inspect every kind of Portland home — and we’ve been doing it since 1993.

Inspectek West in Portland

We know Portland homes.

Portland’s housing runs the full range — century-old foursquares and bungalows in neighborhoods like Laurelhurst and Irvington, mid-century ranches, and brand-new infill. Each era brings its own things to watch for, and after more than 40,000 inspections across the metro, we know exactly what they are.

Older Portland homes often come with knob-and-tube wiring, buried oil tanks, foundation and drainage quirks from our wet winters, and aging sewer laterals worth scoping before you buy. We check it all, explain what actually matters versus what’s cosmetic, and get your report back fast.

Straight answers

Portland inspection questions.

Do you offer the Home Energy Score required for Portland listings?+
Yes. Portland requires a Home Energy Score before most single-family homes are listed, and we perform it with a certified U.S. Department of Energy assessor — often on the same visit as your inspection.
Can you inspect older Portland homes with knob-and-tube or an oil tank?+
Absolutely. We flag aging knob-and-tube wiring and signs of a buried oil tank, and we can point you toward a tank locate and decommission if one turns up — both common in Portland’s older neighborhoods.
Is a sewer scope worth it on a Portland home?+
On older homes, strongly — many close-in neighborhoods still have clay sewer laterals prone to root intrusion and cracks. A quick camera run tells you whether you’re facing a five-figure repair before you close.
Can I bundle a sewer scope or radon test with my inspection?+
Yes — most Portland clients add a sewer scope and/or radon test to their home inspection so everything’s handled in one visit, and we coordinate it all for one appointment.
How fast will I get my report?+
Typically same-day or by the next morning — a clear, photo-rich report you can share with your agent or the other side of the deal.
Do you charge extra to come out to Portland?+
No surprise travel fees within our service area. Pricing is based on the home’s size and the services you choose, not your ZIP code.
