About Me
We are a family- and veteran-owned property inspection company with some of the most outstanding Google reviews in Central PA. We are known for exceptional service to our clients, our crystal-clear reports that are delivered on the day of the inspection, and the kind of inspections we can do other than home inspections. We do radon, mold, and water testing, termite and well inspections, and commercial property inspections. Learn more about us at https://chestnutinspections.com.
A Home Inspection is a visual evaluation of a property's condition, covering major systems like the roof, structure, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. We do these inspections for home buyers to inform them of any existing or potential issues. We also do these as pre-listing inspections for sellers, to control any surprises or delays after an offer has been accepted.

A WDO (Wood-Destroying Organism) Inspection checks for signs of termites, carpenter ants, wood-boring beetles, and fungi that can damage a home’s structure. It is often required for real estate transactions like VA loans, and helps protect against costly structural repairs.

We check the same items as on a standard home inspection, as well as structural support beneath the home.

Lenders sometimes require an inspection to determine if the home meets HUD construction standards for foundations and additions (porches, decks, etc.). We do these inspections with our partner engineering firm, who reviews our information and issues a report.

We test the home for radon, a odorless and colorless radioactive gas that is present in all soil, and is the second highest cause of lung cancer in the US.

We test for the presence of mold in the home using state-of-the-art equipment and training. Lab reports are received the following day.

We inspect the home for building problems that can or has caused elevated moisture that contributes to mold growth. We take three mold samples, with the option of adding testing for airborne particulates that can cause respiratory distress.

We perform both radon testing and an Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) inspection, with a discount for multiple services.

Reviewed on January 21, 2026My realtor initially set me up with his own inspection buddies but I'm so glad I decided to get my own. Chestnut Property Inspections spent several hours expertly examining literally every inch of the house. I learned so much that day and before we parted, my inspector gave me a big homeowners manual and said I would now have their expertise on the property into the future since they since they have all the photos and test results. I can certainly see why they are so well-regarded. Thanks, Derek!

Reviewed on January 14, 2026Derek was great! As a Realtor, there’s times when a home inspection can make or totally break a deal. Derek took his time walking me and my homebuyers through the home explaining everything he found. He let us know if it was something in need of repair right away or could be addressed later. It really put my client’s worries at ease. Thank you, Derek!

Reviewed on January 4, 2026We had a great experience with Derek as our home inspector. He was extremely attentive to detail and inspected everything thoroughly. Derek took the time to answer all of my questions clearly and patiently, making sure I fully understood the condition of the home. His professionalism and thoroughness gave us a lot of confidence moving forward. I truly felt informed and supported throughout the entire inspection. I would absolutely recommend Derek to anyone needing a reliable and knowledgeable inspector.
