Why Choose Cuyahoga Valley Inspections?
We provide detail-oriented home inspections across the Youngstown area, helping buyers, sellers, and homeowners make informed decisions.

We don’t just email you a report; we walk you through the findings, explain key issues, and give you honest, practical recommendations.
Radon Testing in Youngstown
Many parts of the Mahoning Valley are known for elevated radon levels due to the natural makeup of the soil. Since radon is a radioactive gas with no smell or color, the only way to know if it’s present is to test for it. We offer dependable radon testing using professional-grade equipment, whether as a standalone service or bundled with your inspection.
Mold & Indoor Air Quality Testing
Youngstown’s damp basements, older ventilation systems, and seasonal humidity can lead to mold growth and poor air quality. We offer professional mold and air testing that looks for spores in the air and identifies hidden problem areas. If something’s off, we’ll give you clear next steps and resources for remediation or repairs.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Many homes in and around Youngstown still rely on older clay or cast iron sewer lines that can shift, crack, or clog with roots. A sewer scope inspection uses a camera to view the main sewer line and spot trouble before it becomes an emergency. It’s a smart choice for older homes or if there have been signs like frequent drain backups or slow flushing.

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.
