Marin County Home Inspection

Real estate in Marin County is unlike anywhere else in the Bay Area. From coastal properties to hillside estates, homes here are shaped by terrain, marine air, and decades of architectural evolution.

Proximity Home Inspection provides comprehensive home inspections throughout Marin County. Our process is designed to give buyers and homeowners a clear understanding of structural performance, system condition, and environmental exposure before making important decisions.

Marin homes often face environmental factors not found inland.

In communities such as San Rafael, Mill Valley, Novato, Tiburon, and Sausalito, we frequently evaluate:

• Moisture intrusion from coastal fog and marine air

• Corrosion of exterior fasteners and metal components

• Hillside drainage and retaining wall performance

• Settlement or movement in sloped construction

• Aging decks and elevated walkways

• Older plumbing or electrical systems in mid-century homes

These conditions require careful attention during inspection.

Our inspection is a methodical visual assessment of accessible systems and structural elements.

We examine:

• Roofing systems and flashing

• Structural framing and foundation

• Electrical panels and visible wiring

• Plumbing fixtures and supply lines

• Heating systems and ductwork

• Attic ventilation and insulation

• Exterior siding, decks, and balconies

• Interior rooms and ceilings

• Garage and attached structures

You will receive a digital report with photos and written explanations, typically delivered the same day.

We provide home inspections across Marin County, including:

• San Rafael

• Mill Valley

• Novato

• Tiburon

• Sausalito

• Corte Madera

• Larkspur

• Fairfax

• San Anselmo

and surrounding North Bay communities.

Marin County properties often represent significant investments. An inspection provides an independent evaluation of the home’s current condition so you can better assess risk and maintenance planning.

• Understand structural and system performance

• Anticipate repair or replacement timelines
