Complete Inspection Solutions Across Kentucky
At CHC Home Inspection, we believe real estate services should be simple, thorough, and performed with excellence. Our mission: “Real Estate Services performed with excellence for the client and prosperity of our team and families.” , guides everything we do.
Buying, selling, or maintaining a property often means coordinating multiple vendors, scheduling separate appointments, and trying to piece together reports from different companies. That process can be time-consuming, overwhelming, and stressful.
With CHC, you don’t have to do that.
Our diverse team of certified inspectors provides comprehensive inspection services under one roof. Even more uniquely, CHC is the only home inspection company in Kentucky with a strategic partnership with a local contracting company. This allows us to provide fast, accurate repair estimates directly from your inspection report. Every client receives a complimentary estimate for up to five repairs, giving you clarity, negotiating power, and confidence.
Below is a complete overview of our services.
Residential Inspections
Purchasing a home is one of the largest financial decisions most people will ever make. Our Residential Inspections are detailed, comprehensive, and client-focused.
We inspect:
- Single-family homes
- Townhomes
- Condominiums
- Multi-family properties
Our inspectors walk you through findings in real time whenever possible. We encourage questions and provide education so you understand the home’s condition before closing.
What sets CHC apart is what happens after the inspection. Thanks to our exclusive contractor partnership, you can receive complimentary estimates for up to five repairs noted in your report. This is especially helpful when negotiating with sellers or planning post-closing improvements.
You gain:
- Clear understanding of property condition
- Repair cost insight
- Reduced uncertainty
- Stronger negotiation leverage

Commercial real estate requires a different level of evaluation. Our Commercial Inspections are tailored to investors, property managers, and business owners who need clarity before making large financial commitments.
We inspect:
- Office buildings
- Retail spaces
- Multi-unit complexes
- Industrial properties
- Mixed-use buildings
Our team evaluates structural integrity, mechanical systems, roofing, electrical, plumbing, and overall building performance. We understand the financial implications behind commercial property decisions and provide actionable information that supports smart investments.
With CHC, you receive organized documentation that helps you make informed decisions quickly and confidently.
Mold Inspection
Mold may develop around leaks, in damp basements, in crawl spaces, and in poorly ventilated areas. Some concerns are visible, while others require a closer mold inspection.
CHC Home Inspection helps Kentucky buyers and homeowners understand visible mold concerns and the moisture conditions that may support growth.
- Visual review of accessible areas
- Moisture assessment and testing when needed
- Clear findings and practical next steps
Indoor Air Quality Testing
Poor indoor air quality is not always easy to identify by sight or smell. Moisture, ventilation problems, and airborne particles may affect conditions inside a home.
Our team offers indoor air quality testing to help clients better understand their indoor environment through appropriate inspection and sampling methods.
- Air and surface sampling when appropriate
- Moisture and ventilation review
- Easy-to-understand test results
Termite Inspections
Wood-destroying insects can cause significant structural damage if left undetected. Our Termite Inspections identify signs of:

We examine accessible structural components, crawl spaces, foundations, and wood framing to detect potential issues early.
This inspection is often required during real estate transactions, but it is also recommended for homeowners who want to protect their investment long-term.

A septic system is an important part of a property's wastewater management, but much of it remains hidden underground.
We perform septic inspections of accessible septic components and visible site conditions to help buyers and homeowners recognize possible concerns.

- Helpful documentation for next steps
Radon Testing
Radon is an odorless, colorless gas that can accumulate inside homes. Our Radon Testing service measures radon levels using professional-grade monitoring equipment.
If elevated levels are detected, we provide clear guidance on mitigation options.
Radon testing is especially important during real estate transactions, but homeowners should also test periodically, particularly in areas where radon is more common.
Manufactured Home Foundation Certificates
For buyers and sellers of manufactured homes, foundation compliance is often required for financing. Our Manufactured Home Foundation Certificates verify that the structure meets required guidelines for permanent foundations.
