Farmington Hills is our home base — our office is here, we live and work in the area, and Farmington Hills is where we know every neighborhood, every common subdivision builder, and every recurring issue by heart. We can typically inspect a Farmington Hills property within 24 hours of booking, often same-day.
The bulk of Farmington Hills housing was built between 1970 and 2000 — large 4-bedroom colonials, ranches, and tri-levels in well-organized subdivisions throughout the city. Common findings on this era: original cast-iron drain stacks now reaching end of service life, original or first-replacement HVAC, original electrical panels (some now needing capacity upgrades for modern loads), and original roof systems on second or third replacement. The older 1970s subdivisions also have aluminum branch wiring in a meaningful share of homes.
Newer Farmington Hills construction (2000 onward, particularly in the northern and western parts of the city) shifts focus to builder-quality items — undersized HVAC for finished basements, attic insulation depth, soffit ventilation, plumbing rough-in shortcuts, and grading. The historic Farmington core (immediately south of Farmington Hills) has a smaller inventory of pre-1950 homes that need a separate inspection approach.
