NC Home Inspector License Number 5693

Hi! I am John Riggle, Owner/Inspector at J.Rig Inspections, LLC. My family and I have enjoyed life in the Wake Forest area for more than 15 years, and will be here to watch the growth for many years to come. I am a Mechanical Engineer and previous home builder, and my passion for the perfect home and the safety of my family has led me to home inspections. Everyone needs to know the true condition and safety of their home, but not everyone has the knowledge to make that determination. Buying or selling a home should be a very exciting time in your life. Let me help you to make educated choices about the condition of your home, your future home, and your well being inside that home. My inspections will leave you with the buyer confidence and the seller awareness that you deserve.

We pride ourselves on providing the highest quality of services

Home Inspection / Pre-Listing Inspection

Buying a home, selling a home, upgrading…whatever your situation, it will be one of the most significant activities of your life. Do it with confidence and awareness. My inspection will thoroughly evaluate all major elements and systems of the home, and my report will educate you in a simple, easy to understand manner.

Starting at $350

48 Hour Radon Testing

Radon is a radioactive, colorless, odorless gas that happens to be the second leading cause of lung cancer, just after cigarette smoking. Radon is naturally released from rocks, soil, and water, and can get trapped inside your home. You should always aim to have the lowest level of radon in your home. 48 hour radon monitoring will give you peace of mind or direct you if mitigation means are necessary.

– $150 –

Pre-Drywall Inspection

Is your new home properly insulated? Are the plumbing pipes and electrical wires protected from the nails you will use to hang those cherished family photos? Are there any damaged or missing structural components? These are all questions that cannot be answered when inspecting a finished home. Consider a pre-drywall inspection if you purchase your home early in the construction process.

Starting at $250

11 Month Warranty Inspection

Exit your builder warranty with confidence. Most builders offer some level of warranty for one year after the closing date of your new home. J.Rig Inspections can help you identify those common, sometimes hidden defects that are typical during the first year of new construction. Don’t get stuck with expenses on day 366!

Issues To Look Out For In Your Home

Plumbing

Small leaks are sometimes very hard to notice. Leaks lead to structural rot, mold, and high water bills $$$.

Foundation

The foundation is the load bearing structure of your home to the ground below. Poor foundation conditions and/or poor surrounding soil conditions can lead to very serious structural issues.

Stairs

Accidents and falls on stairs are one of the leading causes of injury in the home. Are your stairs and railings safe and secure?

HVAC

On average, residential HVAC systems typically last 15 years. Older or failing systems are inefficient and costly to operate. Don't get stuck in the cold!

Electrical

Are your electrical systems safe? Unfortunately, residential electrical fires and electric shock are more common than you think. Faulty receptacles, faulty circuit breakers, and lack of proper grounding is common.

Roof Leaks

Roof leaks? Potential roof leaks? Is your attic and home properly vented? Worn roof coverings and poor ventilation can lead to big future problems if not recognized and maintained in the present.

What customers say about our work

A home inspector can provide valuable information to help you make an informed decision when buying, selling, or maintaining a property. Below are some of the reasons why you should choose J Rig Inspections….

John, Thank you so much for your inspections and radon testing at my new home in Raleigh. Your work has given me some more peace of mind about the quality of my house! I have worked with home inspectors before, both at homes in North Carolina and Virginia, and wanted you to know how impressed I was with your work. You were very thorough and your explanations and pictures of the minor problems you detected in the home were easy to understand. Your prices were reasonable, and you were always on time and easy to work with. I could not have asked for a better job and service. In short, John, if you ever need a reference, I would be glad to provide an A+ one! Thank you again!

John was referred to me by my listing agent. Now l can add him to my own personal resource list as he was promptly responsive, with quick availability. His report was provided the same day as the inspection itself, along with an overview call to discuss any questions I may have. Payment options were easy too. This level of service is has been unmatched in my experience. Will be using him again as I look to buy, as well as recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy, thorough home inspector.

JRIG Inspections completed our radon test and we couldn’t have been more satisfied. John was very professional and explained every step of the process. The equipment had zero impact on our day to day living and the inspection report provided us with a very detailed snapshot of hourly radon measurements detected during the test. We highly recommend the services of JRIG Inspections and will surely use them again ourselves when necessary.

Chris M.

Because I have heard about high radon levels in some new construction around Wake and Franklin counties, I decided to have J.Rig Inspections do a 48 hour radon test of my home. John educated me about radon, where it comes from, and the long term health risks, and fortunately he found that my home has very low levels. A simple, easy to read report was provided, and the peace of mind is well worth it! I will use J.Rig Inspections again.
