Local, certified technicians from our own team. We come to the vehicle, run a dealer-level diagnostic scan (availability varies by make and year), and hand you a report you can actually use to decide or negotiate.
No adjectives about anybody else. Just what you get when the company you hire is the one doing the work.
Led by senior technicians with factory credentials. Between them the team holds credentials across ASE, manufacturer training, collision, diesel, and EV/hybrid.
Three inspection tiers instead of one-size-fits-all. Pick the depth that matches the car and the risk, from a careful-buyer baseline to maximum-depth Elite.
Codes pulled the way a dealership pulls them, then translated into what they mean for the car and your wallet. On every tier.
Photos, video, and on Enhanced and Elite, repair cost ranges plus a written negotiation summary you can take straight to the seller.
We only list what we can verify. The competitor column reflects Lemon Squad's published services and public reviews, re-confirmed the day this page goes live.

The competitor column reflects Lemon Squad's own published information, last verified August 13, 2026 (lemonsquad.com), and is not a judgement of any individual inspector. Both companies work with independent contract technicians; the difference described here is how the work is assigned, not employment status. With us, the mechanic who inspects the car is the one who builds your report.
A comparison page is an invitation to check us. Everything below survives a phone call, a booking, and a stopwatch.
No anonymous network, no report assembled somewhere else. The certified tech who puts hands on the vehicle writes the findings. The owner still inspects vehicles himself: Stephon is a 25 year Master Technician, David is a Master Mechanic with more than 40 years in the trade, and Alex has 16 years on European vehicles and trucks.
Every inspectionEnhanced includes a 15-minute call you can request with the mechanic who touched the car, or our lead technician. Elite includes a 30-minute priority consultation plus a follow-up. Reach out after you get your report and we will set it up. Essential includes email support.

"A pre-purchase inspection saved me from flying to GA and buying a vehicle that would not have made it back to TX. Dealers love to share great photos but don't disclose issues."
If any of these matter more to you than what is above, book them instead. We would rather you get the right service than the wrong one from us.
You get your money back.
Buyers who've used national inspection networks tell us the same three stories: the big fault the report missed, the report that took days, and the appointment that kept moving. A local operation lives on its next referral, so we show up when we said, inspect like it's our own money, and put a name on the work.
A national service is a dispatch network: you book with the company, and a contractor in your area is assigned the job. Car Pro Inspections is a local team in Atlanta and Orlando. The technician who inspects your car is the one who builds your report, and on Enhanced and Elite you can talk to that same person about what he found.
At Elite your report arrives by 11:59 PM Eastern on inspection day. At Essential and Enhanced you get it within 24 hours, and most go out the same day. Priority scheduling is included with Elite, and can be added to Essential or Enhanced by phone.
A technician from our own small team, led by senior technicians with factory credentials. Between them the team holds credentials including ASE, manufacturer and factory training, collision, diesel and heavy truck, and EV and hybrid.
Yes, on Enhanced and Elite. Enhanced includes a 15 minute consultation and Elite includes a 30 minute priority call plus follow-up, both with the technician who inspected the vehicle. Reach out after you get your report and we will set it up. Essential includes email support.
We come to the car, whether it is at a dealership, a private seller's driveway, or an auction lot. A travel fee may apply depending on where the vehicle is, and we confirm it with you before the inspection.
You get a full refund. If the deal falls through after we have already dispatched a technician, through no fault of yours, you still get a full refund with no fee, or a credit if you would rather keep it for the next car.
