Chris is one of the best inspectors I've ever worked with. Not only is he extremely thorough, but he's also knowledgeable about building codes, construction materials, and best practices, past and present, local and in other parts of the country. So not only can he tell you how something was built, what the current condition is, and what to expect for future maintenance/repairs...but he also strives to interpret why it was built that way at the time and how that system compares to current standards.

Chris is highly competent and extremely thorough. He has provided valuable insight which has not only prevented me from making a bad purchase, but also recommends solutions to issues he identifies.

Chris Brown is knowledgeable,thorough,and patient. His inspection was rigorous but fair.He never sounded alarmist along the way and kept the big picture in mind while also seeing the little details. I really feel - after following Chris around and trying to absorb as much a s I could from him - that I learned what needs to be addressed in our future home in a way I might never have been able to if left to my own devices - and I was a carpenter in my youth. Chris really knows he is working for you and takes the time needed to get thee job done right. And he was also very reasonably priced!
It was a pleasure to have Chris inspect our new home.

Chris Brown is the most thorough inspector I know. He is not afraid to go anywhere in a house he needs to go to see up close the true condition of all aspects of the house. He does not rush, often taking five hours to do one. He makes sure he points out items that need addressing. Trustworthy, professional. Also friendly and polite. The best.

Chris Brown was an absolute professional!!! We were told that normally most inspectors do not like to be followed around and they don't like to be asked questions during inspection, but from beginning to end, Chris was willing to stop and explain his findings, while taking the time to answer all of our questions and concerns. Would I recommend Chris again? Absolutely!!! And not only is Chris very thorough in his line of work, he also very affordable. If your looking for a very good home inspector at an affordable price --- Chris Brown is your man!!!
