Inspection day
Two to four hours on site. Drone on the roof, camera in the attic, every system operated. Walk it with me — ask anything.
Report in 24 hours
Photo-documented Spectora report organized by priority — what matters, what can wait. Questions after are always free.
A different kind of home inspector.
For 21 years my job was finding the defect before it found someone else — the last stretch as Chief of Aviation Quality Assurance, the inspector who decides whether a grounded helicopter is safe to fly again. A missed defect there didn’t cost money. That standard doesn’t leave you, and it’s how I walk every house.
I don’t count inspection points.
I inspect everything I can get to on every single house. On some houses that’s more than others. Anyone promising you a set number is counting, not inspecting, and might be missing something.
Credentials you can verify
Michigan doesn’t license home inspectors. I’m an InterNACHI® CPI, fully insured (E&O and liability). Verify it.
Drone, attic camera and thermal scan, every job
Not an upsell. The roof and attic are where the expensive surprises hide, and the FLIR goes on the panel, the plumbing walls and anywhere I suspect moisture.
Guaranteed in writing
Buy-back guarantee and a $3,000 warranty on every buyer inspection. What’s covered.
What clients are saying.
“Honestly blown away by how thorough he was — attic to foundation, he caught stuff I never would’ve noticed. Kyle walked me through every defect in plain English, told me what actually mattered versus what was minor, and never once made me feel stupid for asking questions.”
“I’m a real estate agent and have had a few clients use PreFlight recently. Kyle has done a phenomenal job and is very thorough — great attention to detail, and the ability to test for whatever you need, from thermal imaging to sewer scoping.”
“Easy to talk to and very thorough. He showed us the issues at the panel, walked us through what actually mattered versus what could wait, and answered every question we asked. Great with our kids, too — they had flashlights and were ‘helping inspect the house.’”
“Found a bunch of issues I never would’ve caught — stuff that could’ve turned into a real problem down the road. Now I know exactly what’s wrong before I hire a contractor, so I’m the one with the information. Retired Coast Guard Chief with a background in safety inspections, and it shows.”
“We thought we were buying our dream home but thanks to Kyle he saved me from committing to a nightmare of headaches and regret. We ended up walking away from the purchase… but I will absolutely call Kyle again when we find the next house.”
“Kyle did an outstanding job with our re-inspection. Extremely thorough, professional, and took the time to explain everything he was looking at and why it mattered. Easy to talk to, and made the whole process comfortable and straightforward.”
“Kyle came out and did a thorough inspection for us. Very professional and provided us with a detailed report. We recommend PreFlight Home Inspection — we will be using them again when we find a home we want to purchase.”
“Even though he didn’t find any major issues, he still took the time to go through everything carefully and point out the things that mattered.”
