  • I will provide a written report of the inspection identifying any system or component that does not function as intended, or adversely affects the habitability of the dwelling, or appears to warrant further investigation by a specialist.

Testimonials

Dan performs a thorough and detailed inspection. His knowledge of building codes and eye for details will help you when negotiating terms with the seller.
- B.C., Richlands NC, March 2024
Dan K with 4-Square Builders was amazing! Dan was professional, thorough, and took the time to walk through with us the major things that he found in our house inspection. The value of spending the extra time with us, and explaining what he found was priceless. He did not cut any corners and inspected the house as if he was inspecting it for himself. His expertise and report gave us confidence and reassurance to make a decision on the house. The turnaround time from when he inspected and issued us the report was amazing as well. He really took in consideration our due diligence time frame. Just an amazing experience! Will definitely be using him again!
- C.S., Richlands NC, October 2023

- J.A., March 2022
This company took their time in reviewing everything inside and out, that needed to be fix, repair or just out of place no matter how big or small it was. He went through that house with a fine tooth comb. Great job.

- P.H., Fort Washington MD, December 2021
I was making this purchase sight unseen from Utah. I needed someone reliable and with the expertise to be my eyes. I chose Dan from his great reviews and from the information that he provided on his website. I was not disappointed. He did a very thorough inspection and provided a very detailed and easy to follow report. The photos pointed out he problems and/or problem areas. After review of the report a document was provided that I could make my notes on those items that needed attention and I was able to share that with my realtor. I still had questions about some of the issues and was able to call and discuss my concerns with Dan over the phone in detail. I would highly recommend him for your home inspection. Dan, thank you so much.
- D.W., Brigham City UT, December 2021
Home inspection was very thorough including going all the way through the crawlspace. From what I have heard, most inspectors would not attempt half of that. The report was very informative and included references to codes and recommendations on how to remedy issues uncovered during the inspection. Thank you for having everyone's best interest in mind.
- A.S., October 2021
You're very thorough, and descriptive. We appreciate the job you did for us. Thank you.
- B.P., April 2021
Dan is a phenomenal inspector. He was very thorough and took great pictures. I am first time home buyer and without his inspection I would have not known what I was getting into. I am now able to go back and ask the seller for some much needed repairs I would highly recommend Dan and will be using him again if needed.
- S.S., Hubert NC, April 2021
I highly recommend Dan for your home needs. We used Dan for a home inspection for a house we put a contract on. He was very knowledgeable and thorough with his inspection of the home and found issues that were very serious and saved us tens of thousands of dollars. He was also VERY fairly priced for his inspection service, in fact, I told him he should charge more, he's worth every penny! He was willing to talk to me about his findings and was very pleasant to chat with despite delivering potential bad news. I will be using Dan for other needs on a different home I own because I feel he is very trustworthy and will get the job done correctly. I will also be recommending Dan to anyone I know who needs work or an inspection on their home. If you're wondering if you should use Dan, yes you should.
- N.H., Longmont CO, February 2021
Dan was very knowledgeable and during the reinspection pointed out every minute detail. He was very thorough and helpful.
- M.G., Hubert NC, February 2021
We felt the inspection was very thorough and informative. The rating system used is very easy to understand as well. Because we were not able to view this house in person or be there in person for the inspection the report given put us at peace with the big investment being made with this house.
- J.H., San Diego CA, February 2021
Very thorough, efficient and timely in all aspects of the work. We were impressed with how the inspection included every aspect of the house and the pictures that pointed out the places that needed repair. This was very helpful if someone else thought there wasn't a problem. A picture is truly worth a thousand words! We have used 4 Square again and it would be the first inspection company would will call again.
- B.B., Saint Joseph MO, January 2021
Did an excellent job catching everything and an even better one explaining it all. I also like the feature that allows me to create a list of things it is super convenient
- E.M., Jacksonville NC, January 2021
Dan is pleasant, very knowledgeable, straightforward and to the point. He thoroughly inspected the entire property and gave us the insight we needed to better make decisions moving forward.
- K.E., January 2021
Dan was very thorough with the inspection, he looked at every little thing. He answered any questions I had and would explain things if I want more info. Dan did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend him.
- J.W., Swansboro NC, December 2020
Dan was very timely in getting to our inspection which is important when you are buying a home. The pictures he used are not only helpful, but also "telling" to get a truer "statement" of the problem rather than just using words. Cost is reasonable for his work and everything we have received has been professional and timely.
- B.B., Saint Joseph MO, November 2020
Dan was very thorough and detailed. His inspection report provided everything we needed to know and has allowed us to feel very confident in our purchase. I appreciate the pictures and videos that he took along with the amount of details that he included about all of the elements he inspected.
- A.D., Vinton VA, October 2020
Was absolutely thorough on the house, great with explaining the issues! Highly recommended
- J.K., Tarawa Terrace NC, September 2020
From the moment we met Dan it was obvious he was incredibly passionate about his work and took his job extremely seriously. He took the time to not only explain potential issues, but the reasons why they were issues and what that could mean and answered any and every question we had without making us feel silly for not understanding. We ended up opting to not purchase the house and were saved from walking into a disaster thanks to Dan's hard work and expertise. That few hundred spent with him ended up saving us tens of thousands of dollars, maybe even more! We look forward to using him for the next house. Thanks again Dan! Brandon and Kyla
- B.K., New Bern NC, May 2020
Dan is a total professional. I had the privilege to walk with him as he performed a housing inspection. He was totally open to all questions and provided me with so much knowledge and experience. I would recommend his services to all. A true professional. Ray H.
- R.H., Jacksonville NC, May 2020
I ABSOLUTELY loved the experience. The detailed home inspection that Mr. Dan did kept my wife and me from purchasing a home that would cost us so much money in the very near future. He took his time and inspected every inch. And then explained everything to me. As a first time home buyer he made me feel more then comfortable with the process. I look forward to hiring him for the next house we look at! THANKS ALOT DAN YOU'RE AWESOME!!!!!!
- T.B., Camp Lejeune NC, April 2020
Very thorough inspection, impressive work.
- B.S., March 2020

- D.J., Maysville NC, August 2019
If you are looking for a Home Inspector that is a true professional, timely and extremely knowledgeable Dan Kreiley is the man for the job. We hired Dan for our home inspection as well as the re-inspection and he put just as much time, effort and attention to detail in his first report as he did the re-inspection. He is straight forward with his remarks and has the references to back up everything. His reports are easy to follow and understand. He always has the best interest of the homebuyer in mind and had a keen eye for attention to detail. I cannot speak highly enough about how incredible his workmanship is.
- R.E., July 2019
Dan, thank you for being very professional, thorough, and detailed during my home inspection. I was impressed from the very start when you beat me to the house and I didn't have to wait on you. My agent initially wanted me to choose someone else so we could meet our deadline to close, but I refused because I wanted you to be my home inspector. Thank you for doing an amazing job for me and fitting me into your busy schedule; I'm so grateful for that. I now understand this process and how important it is and I thank you for the education. I will be referring you to everyone I come in contact with. Thank you
- S.F., Jacksonville NC, July 2019
Very thorough, puts a lot if professionalism into his work. Impressive.
- P.R., Milton WV, July 2019
Dan is the best. His reports are very detailed and easy to read. His attention to detail is above par in comparison to any home inspection reports that i have previously had completed. I feel completely comfortable purchasing a home that has been inspected by Mr. Dan Kreiley. In addition to his very detailed report, he makes himself available to answer any questions about the report as well.
- M.B., April 2019
Dan did a very detailed inspection and also broke it down so I could understand.
- R.S., March 2019
Greatly pleased with the report and thank you for working with me expeditiously through long-distance correspondence.
- E.S., Okinawa Jap, March 2019
I really appreciate how thorough your inspection was. It helps us to really know how to go back to the seller to renegotiate the purchase price! Thanks!
- C.M., September 2018

Dan, you are a bulldog!!! Thank you for the amazing work you did on the inspection. Will be using you for sure next time.
- C.R., New Bern NC, August 2018
Dan did a very professional amazing job. The report was in the very next day, & was written so that I understood everything, details & pictures included. I am a woman & did not know anyone in the area, so I researched & read reviews & it definately paid off. HIGHLY recommend! Excellent job Dan!
- N.N., Wilmington NC, July 2018
Very impressed with Dan's professionalism and also the quality of the inspection report! The inspection report included photos as well as detailed explanations of everything on the report. I would highly recommend Dan to everyone!
- D.S., July 2018
Did a very detailed inspection and the inspection was put together very professionally. Would highly recommend.
- A.F., Benson NC, April 2018
We greatly appreciated Dan's thoroughness. He went over everything in careful detail, with photos and written descriptions of problems big and small. He saved us from buying a rotten house! I do think it would be helpful if Dan differentiated his language a bit. He tends to use the same phrasing to address minor flaws as he does to address very major flaws. I understand that the inspection is supposed to be objective and not meant to tell a buyer what to do, but it would be nice if the wording had hints to help people tell the difference between "This is a very minor flaw that can be lived with or easily repaired" versus "This is a huge structural flaw in the house that should make most prospective buyers seriously rethink this purchase." But Dan did a wonderful job of pointing out everything that needed repair, and we were able to see that the house needed truly huge amounts of work. Spending a few hundred to be rescued from wasting tens of thousands is a bargain. We want Dan to look at the next house we are interested in purchasing.
- B.J., North Topsail Beach NC, April 2018
Dan was extremely thorough and he explained everything in a way that was easy for a first time home buyer to understand. We are definitely going to use him again.
- T.F., Jacksonville NC, March 2018
Dan is detailed and focused in his home inspections. We hired him twice. The first time he uncovered a costly structural concern of a house only 5 years old; thus were able to avoid purchasing a money pit. The second time we hired Dan he uncovered extensive damage and poor workmanship on an older house we were interested in. With his report we were able to negotiate with the sellers who wanted to be fair to us and sell their home with a clean conscience. Hiring Dan is a good investment.
- T.S., Jacksonville NC, March 2018
Though I did not meet with you directly, Jennie Kavanaugh of The Sue Cruddas Real Estate Team did and she highly recommended you from the beginning. I feel that you did an extremely thorough job and made things clear enough that I am confident making decisions based on your report. Thank you

Extremely thorough with the entire inspection. Dan used simple language in explaining issues he found with the home. As a first time home buyer, he it was very reassuring to receive his report on the home and felt that he took the time to teach about the issues he found, and not just reported problems. Thanks Dan!
- B.S., July 2017

Dan was prompt, courtesy and extremely thorough. His inspection and report were extremely detailed and provided me the information I needed to decide on whether to purchase a home. Because of Dan's outstanding work I chose not to, his fee was some of the best money I have ever spent. I plan on using his inspection services again on a different house.
- T.J., April 2016

EXCELLENT INSPECTION. THINGS THAT A BUYER WOULD NOT THINK TO LOOK AT WERE FOUND. I'M AMAZED OF ALL THE THINGS THAT DAN POINTED OUT TO ME THAT I WOULD NEVER HAVE THOUGHT TO LOOK FOR.
- D.R., November 2015
I have already recommended Dan to others. Our home inspection was at 9am. My wife and I pulled up to the property at 8:40am and Dan was already on the roof finding problem after problem on our NEW construction house. Dan was at the house until around 1:30pm methodically inspecting every possible system and aspect that he could. Dan allowed me to walk through the home with him and ask questions and explained everything to me. Dan took pictures, made several notes, and then had the very detailed 58 page report completed and ready in less than 24 hours. Absolutely awesome work and I could be more happy with the way the inspection went. The inspection was easy to read and understand, and included pictures of the problems.
- A.O., September 2015
