Sometimes you need to know what’s actually happening with a property before deciding what to do about it. Pre-purchase due diligence, rental turnover assessment, insurance claim support, suspected-but-unconfirmed activity β inspection-only service.

Rodent inspection in Savannah is the independent diagnostic walk-through of a property β interior, attic, crawl space, exterior β without any obligation to purchase treatment or remediation services. It’s commonly used for pre-purchase real estate due diligence, rental property assessment, insurance claim documentation, and homeowner peace-of-mind when activity is suspected but not confirmed. Typical inspection: $150β$400 depending on property size and scope.
Most Savannah pest-control providers don’t offer standalone inspection β the inspection is a lead-generation tool for selling treatment, and the report tends to recommend treatment regardless of what was found. Independent inspection is genuinely different: we walk the property, document what we find, and provide a written report. No treatment pressure, no ‘you have to start a program today,’ no commission-driven scope inflation. The report is the deliverable.
The use cases where this matters are specific. Real estate transactions in Savannah β particularly on historic homes, marsh-edge properties, and properties near restaurant or port corridors β benefit from independent rodent diagnostic the same way they benefit from independent home inspection. Pre-existing rodent damage can be substantial and isn’t always visible during a standard buyer’s walk-through. A 90-minute inspection saves significant downstream surprise on the wrong property.
We coordinate with you, your real estate agent, or the property contact. Typical inspection scheduled within 2β5 days.
Systematic walk-through β interior, attic, crawl space, exterior, yard. Typical inspection 60β120 minutes depending on property.
Photo records of significant findings. Notes on activity, damage, vulnerabilities, conducive conditions.
PDF report delivered within 48 hours β typically within 24. Suitable for real estate use, insurance, or homeowner records.
If you want to discuss findings, we’ll do a verbal walk-through by phone. No upsell pressure for treatment if not wanted.
Inspection pricing scales by property size and complexity. Pre-purchase inspections sometimes include rush turnaround on the report; commercial inspections include more detailed documentation.

Yes, particularly for older Savannah homes, properties with brick-pier foundations, properties near restaurants or marshes, and any home where the seller can’t certify pest history.
