Home Inspections in West Sacramento

Walker Home Pros provides home inspections with Matt Walker in West Sacramento and eastern Yolo County. Just across the river from downtown Sacramento, it is a city of older neighborhoods and new riverfront homes, and you get a thorough inspection and a clear, same-day report on either.

West Sacramento homes

Broderick and Bryte, near the river, have some of the city’s oldest homes, many on raised foundations with crawlspaces and decades of updates. Southport has larger neighborhoods built mostly since the 1990s, and the riverfront has newer townhomes and condos. The city sits on low ground protected by levees, so drainage around the home deserves a close look.

What Matt pays attention to in West Sacramento

• Crawlspaces and raised foundations. Matt enters accessible crawlspaces to check for moisture, damaged supports, plumbing leaks, and pest activity.
• Grading and drainage. Matt looks at how water drains away from the home. Ask your insurance agent about flood zones and coverage, which are outside a home inspection.
• Older wiring and plumbing. In older homes, Matt notes the electrical panel, visible wiring, and plumbing materials, and points out anything worth a specialist’s review.
• Townhomes and condos. Matt inspects the unit itself. Ask the HOA what it maintains, such as the roof or exterior, since shared areas are usually outside the inspection.

Inspections for buyers, sellers, and homeowners

Matt inspects single-family homes, condos, townhomes, duplexes to fourplexes, ADUs, and manufactured homes. Matt will confirm the scope and price with you directly.
