A-PRO Home Inspection Services is located in Madison, WI and serves Dane county and the surrounding areas. We perform home inspections and radon testing, as well as draw and some insurance inspections. We opened in December 2002 and have performed over 1400+ home inspections. The home inspector is Kimberly St. Louis.

A-Pro believes in giving a thorough, honest, educational, & ethical inspection that goes above and beyond the ASHI inspection standards, all at a competitive price. As a home buyer, you want someone to work for YOU. We do just that. We provide a non-biased inspection that will help you make educated decisions about your investment.

We understand the frustrations of selling or purchasing your home. We are also aware of how overwhelming the experience can, especially if you are a single woman in the market for the first time, or purchasing a rental property. Foreclosures are abundant now. Even if someone is expecting to “gut” the property, it is best to get a professional home inspection to possibly uncover some unforeseen items. It is well worth the money and can save head aches down the line. Kimberly will inspect your house like it’s her own.

A-Pro provides an exclusive 120-day guarantee underwritten by an A+ Rated Insurance Carrier, PHOTOGRAPHS are included at no additional charge, and the easy-to-read computerized report is sent via email the same day. Photos can help contractors identify the exact location of any problems uncovered, or can be sent to contractors for price estimates without them having to visit the property.

Telephone counseling after the inspection is always included at no additional cost. Over 500 items are inspected and a 16+ page report is given for each inspection. A Pre-Sale Inspection can also be scheduled. This allows the seller to identify potential items that may be of surprise during the buyer’s home inspection. The seller can then repair the items, or disclose the issues. This can provide a peace of mind and help deter later negotiations at a larger cost to the seller.

According to the EPA, Dane county is considered a high Radon Gas area. Each home should be tested. A Radon Continuous Monitor, 2 day test for a home costs $125. This service does not require a home inspection to be scheduled. Please click on the Radon icon above for a map of areas around Dane county that have been tested to see the results.

If you’re out of state, no problem. A-Pro Home Inspection Services can email or fax you your report with pictures the same day the inspection is done.
