Here are the services we offer. Click on the titles below, or the links to the left, for additional detail of our services provided:
- HOME INSPECTION
- A pre-purchase inspection is recommended for all real estate transactions. Since we are a Professional Engineering Company, our Standard Home Inspection also includes a review of the Structural Condition of the property. If you use a traditional home inspector that is not an engineer, to do your home inspection, you may have to subsequently hire an engineer to address any structural concerns found in the home inspection or appraisal. With Coyle Home Inspection Engineers, one inspection is all you need.
- STRUCTURAL INSPECTION
-
The Colorado Front Range is famous for its expansive soil, causing millions of dollars in damage to homes, buildings, roadways and infrastructure. Proper engineering and construction are of paramount importance in mitigating the potential for damage. Our Structural Inspection is recommended for properties that have sustained movement or damage. According to Colorado law, a structural opinion can only be rendered by a professional engineer. Therefore you cannot get this service from a regular home inspection company.
- END OF WARRANTY INSPECTION
- Most builders supply a One Year Warranty on new home construction. But how do you know if your home was built properly? Our End-of-Warranty inspection is designed to discover problems in the making prior to the expiration of your warranty. Since we are an engineering firm, our reports carry more weight with the builders than a home inspector's report.
- 10 YEAR STRUCTURAL WARRANTY INSPECTION
- Most builders supply a 10 Year Structural Warranty on new home construction. Unfortunately most people forget and let the coverage expire prior to discovering problems and initiating a claim. Our 10 Year Structural Warranty inspection is designed to discover problems that you may be totally unaware about.
- CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION
- If you are having a new home built, you may want to consider having periodic inspections by a professional in the industry.
- MAINTENANCE INSPECTION
- This is the perfect tool for monitoring your home and its needs for repairs and service.
- STRUCTURAL FLOOR INSPECTION
- Some structural floor systems are failing! If you have a structural floor in the basement, we recommend having it inspected to determine its current condition and any conditions that could lead to future problems.
- STRUCTURAL REPAIR DESIGN
- If structural repairs are warranted, we can provide a design of repairs based on systems and methodologies that are time tested.
- RADON GAS TESTING
-
Considered by the EPA to be the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer, radon gas is common in Colorado. Fortunately, mitigation is relatively easy and inexpensive, but you need to know if you have it. We offer radon gas testing using the latest in equipment, giving immediate results after the 48 hour testing exposure.
- SEWER VIDEO INSPECTION
-
NOTE: WE NO LONGER OFFER THIS INSPECTION DIRECTLY, BUT WE RECOMMEND YOU CONSIDER CONTRACTING WITH A SEWER VIDEO INSPECTION COMPANY, FOR THE REASONS STATED BELOW. Older homes and newer homes alike may have hidden problems with the underground sewer system. Pipe settlement, construction damage, and root intrusion are just some of the potential conditions waiting to cause you misery. With a video inspection, these defects can be spotted and physically located to allow correction.
- ELEVATION SURVEY
-
If your home has experienced movement it is imperative to determine the magnitude of the movement and the limits of the movement. This information will help determine if structural repairs are warranted and can provide a basis for monitoring future movement for signs of stabilization.
- EXPERT WITNESS
-
If you have a construction problem that is not being resolved to your satisfaction, an expert opinion is recommended to determine if you have a valid claim. We are available to testify in court or arbitration, as to our opinion on the matter.
