The cost of a home inspection in Maryland depends on the property's size, age, type, location and the services you choose. A condo, townhouse and detached home can have different inspection scopes, so compare written quotes for the same property and services.

For current NextDay Inspect pricing, request a home inspection quote with the property address, approximate square footage, year built and inspection deadline. Ask which systems are included and whether any testing or package fees are additional.

Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring silicates with properties that make them useful for insulation or binding materials in buildings. When asbestos becomes damaged or disturbed, the fibers become airborne and can be inhaled. We provide asbestos testing to determine if a material in your Maryland home contains asbestos. There are six types of asbestos we test for:
  • Chrysotile
  • Amosite
  • Crocidolite
  • Anthophyllite
  • Tremolite
  • Actinolite

Maryland's humid climate creates ideal conditions for mold growth, particularly in basements, crawl spaces, and attics. Our professional mold testing services identify hidden mold issues that could lead to costly repairs and health concerns. We provide comprehensive air and surface sampling to detect mold spores and identify the specific types present in your home.

Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that seeps up from the ground and can accumulate to dangerous levels inside homes. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer in America. Several Maryland counties fall within EPA Zone 1, meaning elevated radon levels are common. Our professional radon testing services use continuous radon monitors for accurate readings over a 48-hour period.

Wood-destroying insects, particularly termites, can cause extensive structural damage to Maryland homes. Our termite inspection (WDI report) examines your property for signs of active infestations and previous damage from termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and powder post beetles. This inspection is often required by mortgage lenders.

Thermal imaging uses infrared technology to detect hidden issues that the naked eye cannot see. Our thermal imaging services help identify moisture intrusion behind walls, insulation gaps, electrical hot spots, and HVAC duct leaks—issues that could impact your home's energy efficiency, safety, and long-term maintenance costs.

A home inspection documents observed conditions in accessible parts of a property. The report can help you discuss repairs, plan maintenance and make an informed purchase decision. It is not a warranty or a guarantee that every hidden defect or future problem will be found.
A general home inspection evaluates accessible components within the agreed scope, which can include the roof, structure, electrical, plumbing, heating and cooling, insulation, ventilation, interior and exterior. Review the inspection agreement for inclusions and limitations. Environmental testing and other specialist services may require separate fees.
