Our Services
Trusted Inspection Services Across Sacramento & Northern California
We provide trusted inspection services throughout Sacramento and Northern California. From home inspections and commercial property evaluations to mold testing and more, our certified inspectors give you a clear picture of your property so you can make the right call. We also coordinate termite, sewer, and roof inspections through trusted third-party vendors so you never have to manage multiple vendors on your own.
Home Inspection
A thorough visual evaluation of a property's structure, systems, and overall condition from foundation to roof. We inspect single-family homes, multi-family properties, new builds, and more, and deliver a clear prioritized report you can easily understand.
Commercial Inspection
Visual inspection of commercial space (e.g. restaurant, office buildings, retail spaces, etc.) to assess structural integrity, systems, and overall condition so you can invest with confidence.
Mold Inspection
Certified mold testing to detect potential mold growth that may not be visible during a standard inspection. Results are explained in plain language so you understand what they mean for your property.
New Construction Inspection
A thorough inspection of newly constructed homes before you close. New construction does not mean perfect. We inspect the property independently so any findings can be addressed by the builder before you take ownership.
1-Year Warranty Inspection
Your builder warranty typically expires after one year. We inspect your home before that deadline so any deficiencies are documented and addressed while coverage is still in place.
Pool & Spa Inspection
A thorough evaluation of pool and spa systems, equipment, and safety features. We assess the overall condition so you know exactly what you are taking on before closing.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
A home inspection includes a detailed visual evaluation of the property's major systems and visible components, including: roof, foundation, plumbing, electrical system, HVAC, attic, insulation, interior, exterior, windows, and doors. Our goal is to give you a clear, accurate picture of the property's condition so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Most home inspections take between 2 and 4 hours. Size, age, and overall condition all play a role, and older or larger properties generally take longer. If you're adding services like mold testing, a sewer scope, or an ADU inspection, plan for some additional time. We'll give you a realistic estimate when you book.
At Nighthawk, we deliver detailed, easy-to-read inspection reports your inspection. Your report is web-based, mobile-friendly, and organized by priority so you can quickly understand the condition of the property and take next steps with confidence.
Yes, and this one surprises a lot of buyers. New doesn't mean perfect. Builders are coordinating multiple crews and subcontractors, and things get missed. Roofing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, structural elements, all of it can have incomplete or incorrect work that passes through without anyone catching it.
A professional inspection before you close on a new build, or before your one-year builder warranty expires, gives you documented findings while you still have leverage to get them addressed. Once that warranty window closes, those repairs become yours.
