Home Inspection in Independence, KY
Independence, one of Kenton County’s two county seats, has grown from a small town into one of Northern Kentucky’s larger suburbs. Many of its neighborhoods were built from the 1990s onward along the KY-17 corridor, and new construction continues today.
Homes from the 1990s and 2000s are now old enough that roofs, furnaces, air conditioners and water heaters may be near the end of their service life. LiteHouse Inspect serves Independence and all of Kenton County, and we’ll help you understand what needs attention now and what can wait.
