Alex Schultz
Meet Your Inspector
I have extensive experience in the construction and restoration industry, beginning with my family’s business in Alaska. As one of four sons, I gained valuable insights into the industry and the deconstruction process of homes. Subsequently, I worked with a local developer, contributing to new construction homes at every stage, and performed electrical work from rough wiring to final trim.
In 2002, I relocated to California to focus on Disaster Restoration, where I assisted homeowners and businesses in recovering from fire, water, mold, and flood damage. After successfully operating a restoration business for nearly two decades, my wife and I launched Safe Home Environmental. We now offer home and mold inspection services, drawing on over 25 years of expertise in the construction and restoration fields.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a home inspection?
A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation. Home inspections are designed to protect the buyer, by revealing problems they might not have noticed otherwise.
How much does a home inspection cost?
How long does a home inspection take?
Home inspections generally take 2 to 4 hours to complete. The duration of a home inspection depends on many factors such as the size of the home, the condition of the home, and the ability to access certain areas of the home (roof, crawl space, attic, etc.).
Should I attend the inspection?
Although it is not necessary, we do recommend that you attend the inspection so you can ask questions and learn more about the home. You will learn a lot from the inspection report, but we always encourage you to attend!
What if the inspection report reveals problems?
It is important to note that no house is perfect. At the end of the home inspection process, we will provide a detailed report that describes the physical condition of the property, with images and videos highlighting what may need repair or replacement. The information provided is to allow a potential buyer to make an informed decision about moving forward with the transaction. It is not pass or fail.
