From a full general home inspection to specialty services like radon testing, sewer scope, and termite inspections — Imperial Home Inspections covers everything Wichita-area buyers, sellers, and homeowners need to make informed decisions.
Every home is different, and every inspection should be too. Rob Shannon brings InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector credentials, 31 years of professional inspection experience, and 20 years of specialized Wood Destroying Insect expertise to every service offered — so you get the complete picture of your property, every time.
The home buyer inspection is a complete, top-to-bottom evaluation of a home's structure, systems, and safety — performed before closing. It's the foundation of every confident home purchase across Wichita and Sedgwick County, with detailed photo-rich reports delivered within 24 hours.
Kansas is an EPA Zone 1 high-radon state, meaning the predicted average indoor radon level is above the federal action level. Sedgwick County and the entire Wichita metropolitan area sit squarely within this high-risk zone — making radon testing one of the most important add-on services any Wichita-area home buyer can request.
Imperial Home Inspections uses a precision continuous radon monitor that runs for a minimum of 48 hours to ensure accurate measurement. Results are delivered with your home inspection report so you have everything you need to make an informed decision before closing.
A sewer scope inspection uses a specialized waterproof video camera to visually inspect the home's main sewer line — catching root intrusion, breaks, bellies, and blockages that can cost $5,000 to $25,000+ to repair after closing. Especially critical for older Wichita-area homes with mature trees and original clay tile lines.
Required by most lenders for closing, the Wood Destroying Insect (WDI) inspection identifies active termite activity, prior damage, and conducive conditions. Rob brings 20 years of dedicated WDI specialty experience — depth few inspectors in the Wichita region can match. The lender-required NPMA-33 report is included.
Crawlspaces are where some of the most expensive problems in Wichita-area homes quietly live for years. Rob actually enters the crawlspace to evaluate moisture, insulation, ventilation, framing, pest activity, and structural concerns — not just peek through the access hatch and take notes.
Kansas soils contain expansive clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry — putting tremendous stress on Wichita-area foundations through every wet/dry cycle. Catching foundation movement, settlement, or load-bearing concerns early can save tens of thousands of dollars in repair costs.
A pre-listing inspection is a complete home inspection performed for the seller before the property goes on the market. Identify and address issues on your own timeline before a buyer's inspection happens — putting you in control of the negotiation instead of scrambling to respond under deadline pressure.
The builder's quality control is not an inspection. Builders work for the builder — Imperial works for you. An independent third-party evaluation before final closing identifies defects, incomplete work, and code concerns while they're still the builder's responsibility to fix.
No surprises on closing day — clear pricing for every property size.
