Home Inspections in Elyria, OH
Elyria’s housing options range from historic homes near downtown to family neighborhoods and newer builds around the outskirts of the city.

Why Choose Cuyahoga Valley Inspections?
We provide thorough, easy-to-understand home inspections for homeowners and buyers throughout Elyria. Our inspections cover the roof, structure, foundation, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and more. Beyond the report, we take time to explain our findings, show you what matters most, and answer your questions so you know exactly where things stand.
Radon Testing in Elyria
Lorain County homes, including those in Elyria, can face elevated radon levels due to natural soil conditions. Because radon is invisible and odorless, testing is the only way to know if your home is safe. We use professional equipment to deliver accurate results and help you determine whether mitigation is necessary.
Mold & Indoor Air Quality Testing
Elyria’s seasonal humidity and wet winters can create moisture issues in basements, crawlspaces, and attics that may lead to mold growth. Our mold and air quality testing checks for hidden spores and measures air safety, giving you clear answers about your home’s environment. If we find a problem, we’ll explain what your options are for addressing it.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Many Elyria homes were built with older sewer lines that may have cracks, blockages, or root damage. A sewer scope inspection uses a camera to check the main line for hidden problems before they turn into expensive repairs. This service is especially valuable for older homes or those showing signs of plumbing backups.
Living in Elyria
Elyria is a community with a small-city feel and plenty to offer. Residents enjoy outdoor spaces like Cascade Park, a revitalized downtown area, and convenient access to both Cleveland and the Lake Erie shoreline.

What to Expect from Your Inspection
Whether you are buying, selling or maintaining your home, Cuyahoga Valley Inspections provides professional and quality service from the moment you call us. Our certified home inspectors will walk through your home with you and teach you as much as you want to learn. We strictly follow the Standards of Practice for home inspectors established by InterNACHI, the leading home inspection association.
After we walk through the home together, we will explain the general condition of the home and systems with you and your agent. We will talk through any major issues that need to be addressed sooner rather than later. We will also mention the items that you will want to keep an eye on for deferred maintenance. All of this will be detailed in our easy-to-read report, which will be delivered in HTML and/or PDF format. From that report, you will be able to see the items we discussed, with images for reference. In addition, our home inspections include complementary floorplans.
