Free to homeowners in Nevada — the contractor pays us for the introduction, you never do.

The one-paragraph answer

Owner turnover across the 3 covered towns in Nevada runs at 29% since 2018. What a standard inspection covers is fixed by the published standards of practice, and the drain line beyond the house is outside them.

Go straight to the one that sounds like yours:

Across the 3 Nevada towns we route calls in, 29% of owner households moved in during 2018 or later. Every one of those sales came with an inspection, and every one of those inspections excluded the same list of things.

What this site is

PresalePipe is a referral service, not a contractor or a home inspector. We connect homeowners and buyers with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We carry out no inspections and no work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

What is excluded, everywhere

The exclusions do not vary by state. Both InterNACHI and ASHI describe the inspection as covering readily accessible, visually observable systems and state that it is not technically exhaustive. Both exclude wells and pumps, septic and wastewater treatment, water quality and potability, fire sprinklers and gas leak testing. InterNACHI additionally names water flow and pressure, floor drains, shower pan testing and polybutylene piping.

What varies by town is how many people here have recently had a report in their hands to read the exclusions in. The full list is on its own page.

Checking a plumber in Nevada

Nevada licenses are issued by the Nevada State Contractors Board, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins. Nevada licenses the C-1 plumbing and heating contractor classification rather than an individual journeyman.
