Matthew & Laura Schreiner

That's right, we're your FAVORITE husband and wife home inspection team!

After running the family repair business for years, Matthew started to look for what was next. He found the home inspection industry by a chance suggestion from a friend. He knew it was something he could do, as he was already adept at mechanical systems and had a background in home renovations. While getting his certification for licensing, he realized his wife would also make a fantastic home inspector. They talked it through and she signed up for her own certification classes shortly thereafter.

Getting here wasn't easy or always straight forward. Continuing only makes sense. Buying or selling a home can be stressful. We're dedicated to making your inspection simple and we're confident in our methodology. We take the social work approach in communicating with our people. Sometimes just the delivery of new information can drastically affect the reaction.

Laura is one of only about 5 female licensed home inspectors in Wake County. Also, we are one of only a handful of husband/wife home inspection teams in all of North Carolina. The truth is, we're not just another home inspection company. We bring a unique approach and style to the whole process. You're going to love us!

Standards and Qualifications

We've been trained by some of the best inspectors in the country, and carry the AHIT certification. AHIT is the largest home inspection training institute in North America, and is approved by ASHI, NACHI, and other professional organizations. We're ready to put that experience and knowledge to work for you.

Testimonials

For several years there has been an organic substance in our home that my husband and daughter were highly allergic to. We have had three remediation companies come out, but they were unable to find the source. Preventive Inspections came out with a Thermal (Infrared) Imaging tool and location several places where high levels of moisture were behind the wall, along with several leaks in our roof. They went the extra mile and checked every nook and cranny of our home. Matt and Laura were professional and great to work with, and reasonably priced. I would not hesitate to use their services again. I would rate them as an A+ company!

We are so glad we hired Preventative Inspections for our one year new construction home inspection. Matt and Laura did a phenomenal job! Our builder even took notice of how detailed the report was and the turn around time was fast too. They certainly do not cut corners! Matt and Laura were knowledgeable and professional. They made the whole process really simple. Hire them, you will be so glad you did!

When I began inquiring about a home inspection, Matthew was very quick to respond to my emails and answered all my questions. He and Laura were so friendly and professional during the inspection. They verbalized all of their findings and also provided an extremely easy-to-follow report that included pictures. They were so thorough and clearly took their time examining the house. We are so thankful we chose this company to do our inspection and feel it was worth every penny!

Preventive Inspections came out to do the inspection of the home I am in the process of purchasing and did a wonderful job! They were EXTREMELY thorough, efficient, professional, and friendly as well. They also explained a lot of what they did and found to me during the process and answered my questions, as I am a first time home buyer, which made the inspection experience extremely less stress inducing. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing a home inspection!

Matthew performed a home inspection for us a few weeks past and did an outstanding job. He was very professional and extremely thorough. The report he provided was detailed and easy to understand and included precise images of concerns he found. He also took the time to discuss his findings and offered great recommendations of items we needed to address. I highly recommend Preventive Inspections.
