Total House Inspection

What Total House Inspection does

Total House Inspection Inc. is a privately held, founder-led home inspection firm founded in 2010 by Dan Joandrea and headquartered in Troy, Michigan (operating out of Rochester Hills). The company provides residential and commercial property condition assessments across eight Southeast Michigan counties (Oakland, Macomb, Wayne, Washtenaw, St. Clair, Lapeer, Genesee, and Livingston). Its service portfolio spans a three-tiered package model (Basic from $405, Premium from $625, Platinum from $815) plus standalone add-on services including sewer video inspection ($235–$355), radon testing ($205–$275), mold air testing ($395), pool inspection ($255), thermal imaging, and wood-destroying organism inspections ($125). All inspectors are InterNACHI certified and follow the InterNACHI Standard of Practice, with the president holding a Michigan Licensed Builder credential and lead-based paint renovation certification.

The underlying technology is diagnostic instrumentation layered on a human visual inspection methodology: thermal imaging cameras, sewer video cameras, continuous radon monitors, and gas leak detection equipment augment a standard inspection covering 1,700+ items across structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and exterior categories. Reports are delivered as photo-rich digital documents within 24 hours, and Premium/Platinum packages bundle lifetime access to the HomeBinder digital home management platform. The company employs approximately nine people, including five certified inspectors and a four-person client care team. There is no public API, no proprietary software platform, and no AI/ML capabilities disclosed.

The business model is direct-to-consumer, transactional, and per-job priced, with no subscription or recurring revenue component. Customers (primarily home buyers, plus sellers, new-construction buyers, existing homeowners, and small commercial clients) book through a 24/7 online scheduling portal, by phone, or by text. Distribution relies on local SEO, customer reviews (1,083 Google Reviews), social media, blog content, and a real estate agent referral program with RepairPricer integration. Pricing varies by property size, age, and add-ons, with the typical 2,500 sq ft home requiring approximately three hours on-site. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or M&A activity.

Broad incumbents

• HouseMaster Home Inspections: Long-standing national home inspection franchise with deep agent relationships. Competes in the same residential inspection category with comparable scope (roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and add-on services.
• Pillar to Post Home Inspectors: Largest U.S. home inspection franchise network with several hundred franchisees. Direct competitor to Total House Inspection across residential pre-purchase inspection services, with a similarly tiered service catalogue and strong agent referral model.
• AmeriSpec Inspection Services: National franchise providing residential and commercial property inspections. Comparable in service breadth (standard home inspection plus radon, mold, sewer scope) and target customer (home buyers, sellers, agents).

Others

• InterNACHI (International Association of Certified Home Inspectors): Industry certification body whose Standards of Practice Total House Inspection follows. Not a direct competitor but a shared ecosystem — Inspector certifications, training, and consumer-facing directory drive leads to all certified inspectors in the market.
• RepairPricer: Software provider offering repair-cost estimation reports used by Total House Inspection as an agent-partner tool. Operates in the same transactional workflow (inspection → repair addendum) and is a complementary technology partner for any inspection firm.

• InspectorPro Insurance / InspectorPro Marketplace: Provider of E&O insurance, training, and practice tools for home inspectors. Not a competitor but a critical supplier to Total House Inspection and the broader certified-inspector ecosystem.

Direct peers

• National Property Inspections (NPI): National residential and commercial inspection franchise with comparable service catalogue including buyer inspections, pre-listing, new construction, and specialty testing. Direct competitor for both residential and commercial inspection engagements.
