Home Inspection in Grand Blanc, MI
Resale homes and new builds across Grand Blanc, with thermal imaging on every inspection.
Grand Blanc sits just southeast of Flint along I-75, close enough to our home base that same-day and next-day appointments are usually possible. Mike's Complete Home Inspection works for buyers, sellers and agents across Grand Blanc, from established neighborhoods near downtown to subdivisions that are still being built out.
Every inspection is done by an InterNACHI certified, Board Certified Master Inspector. Thermal imaging is included, and your digital report, with photos and color-coded priorities, arrives same-day to within 24 hours.
Grand Blanc homes, old and new
Grand Blanc's housing falls into two broad groups. The older parts of the city and township have ranches, split-levels and two-story homes from the middle of the last century, many with basements, original sewer laterals and decades of updates done at different times. Further out, the township has grown with subdivisions built over the last few decades, and new homes are still going up.
Each group needs a different kind of attention. On an older home we spend time on the electrical panel and wiring changes, the age of the furnace and water heater, the roof, and basement moisture. On a newer home the systems are younger, but workmanship varies from crew to crew, and first-year settlement, grading and trade-coordination problems are common. That is why many Grand Blanc buyers pair a new-build purchase with a pre-drywall or 11-month warranty inspection.
What we watch for in Grand Blanc
- •New-build defects such as framing errors, plumbing and electrical routing, ductwork and air-sealing gaps. We catch these at the pre-drywall stage, or document them at 11 months while the builder's warranty still applies.
- •Grading and drainage on newer lots, where backfill around the foundation settles in the first few years and can send water toward the house.
- •Sewer laterals on homes built before 1985 or with mature trees on the lot. Clay and Orangeburg lines in the Flint area are prone to root intrusion and collapse.
- •Radon. Genesee County sits in a moderate-to-elevated EPA radon zone, and new homes can test high just like older ones, so we recommend a test on every purchase.
- •Basement moisture and sump pumps on homes of every age. Thermal imaging helps us trace moisture that is not yet visible.

Frequently asked
Do you inspect new construction in Grand Blanc?
Yes. We offer pre-drywall inspections while the framing, wiring and plumbing are still visible, a final inspection before closing, and 11-month warranty inspections before the builder's warranty expires. The municipal inspector checks code minimums; we work for you.
How soon can you inspect a home in Grand Blanc?
Grand Blanc is a short drive from our Flint office, so same-day and next-day appointments are available in most cases. Call or text (810) 423-2360, or use the contact page to book.
Is radon testing worth it on a newer home?
Yes. Radon comes from the soil under the house, not from the age of the house. A 48-hour test can run alongside your home inspection, and you get written results with guidance if the level is above 4.0 pCi/L.
When will I get my report?
Same-day to within 24 hours. The report has photos, color-coded priorities and plain-language recommendations you can forward to your agent or contractor.
