Unlike many home inspection companies that use checklists or "cookie cutter" reports, ValueGuard home inspectors prepare a comprehensive narrative report that is custom tailored to the home that is being inspected. Each major system of the property has a separate section that explains the system, its positive attributes, maintenance advice, and any defects that the inspector noted at the time of his/her inspection. All sections of the report are divided into three parts, which itemize the Major Defects, Safety Concerns and Other Comments.

The report also includes an Overview section that discusses the more significant issues, the inspector's recommendations and a section of general maintenance advice and service frequencies for the systems. Simply stated, while nearly all home inspection companies tout their reports as the best, they are primarily designed to be easy for the inspection company to produce and deliver.

ValueGuard specifically designed its report to be easy for the consumer to understand.
