Sound Home Inspection

What Sound Home Inspection does

Sound Home Inspection, LLC is a private, founder-owned home inspection firm founded in 1994 and headquartered in Mystic, Connecticut, serving residential and commercial clients across Connecticut and Rhode Island. The company performs comprehensive home inspections covering structural, electrical, plumbing, heating, roofing, exterior, interiors, insulation, ventilation, and built-in kitchen appliances, complemented by add-on services including EPA-approved radon testing, septic inspections, water quality testing, pre-selling inspections, consulting, house minding, and preventative maintenance.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer model with phone-based scheduling (860-445-1236) and online scheduling through its website, with staff available Monday through Sunday, 7:00 am to 7:00 pm. Inspection reports are delivered within 48 hours using a state-of-the-art reporting system that incorporates photographs and video of identified trouble areas. The firm uses mainstream SaaS tools for marketing and operations — HubSpot, HomeGauge, Inspection Support Network (ISN), Google Analytics, Google Ads, and Bing remarketing — and holds ASHI #5535, CAHI, BBB A+, and multi-state home inspector and septic inspector licenses (CT #HOI.234, RI #HI-44234, RI Septic #040423, CT Sub-Surface Sewage Cleaner #005674).

Founder and Master Inspector Tom Morgan has completed over 5,000 inspections over 30+ years, supported by Inspection Apprentice April Hunt. The company is privately held, bootstrapped, has no disclosed funding, and does not publicly disclose pricing — instead providing quotes upon inquiry, with a 10% military discount offered. Customer segments are heavily weighted toward individual home buyers and sellers in CT and RI, with the only mid-market reference being IMT Realty LLC.
