Complete inspections including rural property expertise
Comprehensive evaluation of all major systems. Wellington has a unique mix of historic downtown homes, newer developments, and rural properties—we know what to look for in each.
Essential for Wellington homes. Larimer County has elevated radon levels. 48-hour continuous electronic monitoring gives accurate results. About half of area homes test above EPA action level.
Many Wellington properties rely on private wells. We test water quality for bacteria, nitrates, and other contaminants. Understand your water supply before you buy.
Properties outside town limits often have septic systems. We evaluate tank condition, drain field function, and system capacity. Avoid expensive surprises.
Wellington has significant new development in Boxelder and Wellington West. New doesn't mean perfect—independent inspection catches issues builders miss.
Acreage properties with outbuildings, barns, and agricultural structures. We understand the unique considerations of rural Wellington properties.

Town properties (municipal utilities): Standard inspection + radon testing. Add sewer scope for homes 15+ years old.
Rural properties (well and septic): Standard inspection + radon + well water testing + septic inspection. The full package gives you complete understanding of the property's systems.
Important: For rural properties, your lender may require well water testing and septic inspection anyway. Getting them done during due diligence gives you leverage to negotiate if issues are found.
