The BrickKicker Home Inspection Services

Giving You Peace of Mind for Your Largest Investment

FOR MORE THAN 23 YEARS, MATT ADAMS HAS BEEN INSPECTING HOMES TO ENSURE THEIR SAFETY FOR POTENTIAL BUYERS AND REAFFIRMING THEIR INTEGRITY FOR EXISTING OWNERS. His company, The BrickKicker Inspection Services, not only does residential and commercial inspections, but also testing for radon, mold, termites, water bacteria, septic and well water— for results that are faster and trusted.

“ Our services are perfect for buyers at time of purchase and sellers at the time of the presale, but we also help a lot of folks who have been in their homes for 30 or 40 years by inspecting their homes and informing them about their maintenance and repair needs. We give them the whole picture instead of them finding out a little bit here from a plumber, a little bit there from a roofer … We can help plan and prioritize repairs and maintenance so they’ re not a surprise,” says Adams.“ We also do inspections on new construction to ensure that everything is up to code in your new home before you move in and start finding flaws.”
He adds that The BrickKicker is more an experience than a typical inspection people would have in mind. Interested parties are encouraged to attend the inspection and walkthrough so they can find out about problems in real time. The BrickKicker’ s thorough and informative reports cover everything from the bricks on the outside to the countertops on the inside. The company also offers custom inspections that can evaluate other issues like retaining walls, storage sheds, and major systems, down to the light switches and furnace filters.
Some of the perks available to clients of The BrickKicker include a 24-hour answering service, lifetime consulting services, FHA, VA and USDA assistance, and discounts available to senior citizens, military servicemembers and first responders.
“ We offer inspection services that are as much or as little as people may need for their situation,” explains Adams.“ If you just want us to inspect the major components of the house— attic ventilation, heating and cooling system, mold, asbestos, and main plumbing and electrical— we can do that. If you need us to look at everything down to the microwave, and point out child safety hazards, we can do that as well. We also give clients access to our 90-day home protection plan, 90-day termite protection plan, maintenance guide and tips, and projected life expectancies for major items like roofs, HVAC and water heaters. We also have a service called“ check your contractor.” We can inspect or oversee your contractor’ s work to make sure it is up to code and normal building standards were used.”

As any homeowner will tell you, finding out about a home’ s problems before you move in is the key to truly enjoying your new home versus discovering a money pit that will keep you awake at night worrying about safety and stacking bills and invoices.
