Phil was quick and comprehensive with his inspection, polite and courteous. When we had questions and rang his office the reply was almost instant.

- K.O., May 2024
As a single, older lady, I appreciated his attention to detail with the inspection of a house I hope will be my forever home. The Inspection Report was clear and the perfect roadmap for the next steps to bring this house back to it's full potential. His kind and helpful nature was truly a nice bonus in this stressful process. Thank you!
- C.S., May 2024
Phil communicated very well and explained in terms I could understand. He was also very thorough with his inspection.
The only suggestion I have is that with having 3 inspectors there at the same time (which was very convenient for me being from out of state), is to make sure the other inspectors (termite bond inspector) knows to not address things not in his preview. I got a little confused at first with who was who and asked him questions that I should have asked you. You addressed my questions when you went through your findings with me at the end.
Thank you for a exceptional home inspection.

This company has exceeded my expectations. Everything from scheduling and arriving on time to receiving my inspection report they were fantastic. Now, I know this may seem like a given but I can tell you being in the remodeling business myself, that itself is rare in this field. They answered all the questions I had during the walkthrough and are very informative and thorough with their inspection. You can tell they truly care about what's in the best interest of the homeowner by informing them of potential and existing problems without cutting any corners. Would highly recommend!

I definitely feel more confident about my home purchase and would recommend Phil to anyone!

I would highly recommend Phil to do an inspection. It started out with a smooth set up, scheduling and payment was made easy. The inspection report was detailed and thorough. The feature I really liked was that you can create a list of repairs requested right on the report and send it to your agent. There was follow-up to make sure we were set and didn't have additional questions. Stress-free experience! Thank you!!
- L.B., March 2022
Phil is a very thorough inspector. My husband does all our own home repairs and Phil is his first choice. We have used him on multiple house purchases and never had any issues.
- R.B., March 2022
Phil and his wife were great! This is our first home purchase and they certainly made this part of the inspection process easy and educational. They were prompt, on time, and very efficient; received a fully detailed inspection report promptly the next day. With his past experience, he was able to walk us through What they were checking, Why they were checking it, Why it was important to inspect, and When/How to inspect it again ourselves down the line to ensure proper maintenance. Although they were just there for an inspection, ourselves and our new home are better for it. 10/10; would recommend them to anyone!

Phil maintained open communication with me when the original appointment time was not going to be the best due to the high volume of workers in the house at the prescribed time. He found issues that my realtor, wife, and home builder missed. His approach to the inspections is extremely unbiased. If it is an issue, then he reports it. He was amazing.
- C.D., December 2021
