JOEL GIBNEY
Welcome to Net Home Inspections — our family business based in Annapolis, serving Anne Arundel and the surrounding counties. Before moving to this beautiful part of the country, I was a licensed General Contractor in CA and OR. My construction career lasted 25 years where I specialized in residential remodel construction. Jobs ranged from complete, ground-up remodels to additions to kitchens and baths. I also flipped a dozen houses in CA and AZ along the way. On top of that, I am a Certified Home Inspector by:
– ASHI – The American Society of Home Inspectors
– INTERNACHI – The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors
– AHIT – The American Home Inspection Institute
This all adds up to the experience you should want in your Home Inspector. Why should you hire me? From the foundation to the roof I have done it all. I know how to inspect a house because I know how to build a house.
So, whether you are an experienced homeowner or a first-time buyer, schedule your inspection with confidence today. Thank you, I look forward to meeting you. joelgibney@nethomeinspections.net

Our Inspection Services
Home Inspections
For both buyers and sellers, a home inspection by NET Inspections is the best way to protect your investment.
New Construction
Before you sign the dotted line for that newly built home, have us perform a new construction inspection.
Pre-Drywall inspections
Want to know what is behind your walls? Then, before the sheetrock goes up in your new construction home – hire us!
Walk & talk consultations
This is not an inspection with a full report, the buyer takes notes as we go through the house together. It is also a simple way to help a seller before listing a house.
Condo Inspections
An “interior only” inspection, a condo inspection helps you determine if there are any issues with your new unit.
Indoor Air Quality
The air in your home should be clean and safe – and we provide professional air testing to ensure it is.
water, radon, & mold testing
We provide professional and comprehensive testing services for water, mold, and radon. Complete with lab reports where applicable.
DRONE INSPECTIONS
We are FAA licensed and provide drone inspections when needed.
NOT AFRAID TO GET DIRTY
We are not the type of inspector to shy away from crawlspaces and attics. In fact, those are the areas we gravitate toward because that is where the issues hide and where others miss them. We walk every roof we possibly can, we get into every attic possible, and we scour every inch of basements and crawlspaces we can.
AT NO ADDITIONAL COST
THERMAL IMAGING
In addition to our extensive knowledge and experience, we also use the latest in inspection technology to give you the best inspection possible, such as Infrared. Thermal imaging is included in all our home inspections. The use of thermal imaging allows us to look beyond what the naked eye sees to discover hidden areas of potential concern and bring this information to our clients.
We use infrared to verify issues we find visually as part of our home inspection. For instance, if we visually discover signs of a water leak (like discolored drywall) we will use our infrared cameras and moisture meters to determine whether that leak is active. This gives you a better home inspection, a cleared inspection report, and accurate information to negotiate with.
WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT US
PROVIDING HOME INSPECTIONS IN VIRGINIA, MARYLAND, AND WASHINGTON DC. INCLUDING ANNAPOLIS, PAROLE, & ALL SURROUNDING AREAS
“Net Home Inspections was responsive in meeting my quick housing market needs by working on a Sunday. His attention to detail and honesty was amazing to experience first hand. He provided detailed explanations to me as he performed the inspection and within 24 hours Mr. Gibney provided a comprehensive report with pictures detailing his findings.
I highly recommend Mr. Gibney to anyone requiring an honest home inspection assessment!“
“Joel inspected the property we’re purchasing on very short notice and produced a thorough report within 12 hours, both greatly appreciated. The report has full of useful information, and light on CYA disclaimers. We’re buying historic home sight-unseen, so we had lots of follow-up questions. He made himself available by phone for as long as we had questions. He was knowledgeable and forthright. Property had some issues with historic brick and mortar, and Joel had some great insights on the evolution of mortar compounds use on homes in the DC area. Thanks to our Realtor, Christine Gray for recommending Joel. Thanks Joel for job well done.”
“Your house is your biggest purchase you’ll ever make. Why would you trust such an important task as a home inspection to anyone except a trained, certified home inspection professional such as Joel? Joel gives your prospective home a thorough check-up and detailed bill of health. He takes the time to check inside and out, looking at the big issues and the little details. His report is not only extremely well-written on the house’s current state, but also has many tips for how to keep your home in good condition.
