I am experienced in numerous trades including framing, concrete, plumbing, painting, trim carpentry, ceramic tile and more. I will thoroughly review the inspection findings with you at the time of your inspection and email your report to you within 24 hours (same day in most cases) My inspections exceed the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) and the State of Arizona's standards.

Spencer did a fantastic job with my home inspection—thorough, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He explained everything clearly and gave me real peace of mind. Highly recommend him if you want someone who takes the job seriously and cares about doing it right.

It has been a pleasure working with the team at Applebach Home Inspections. Not only is this my first time, but my third time hiring this knowledgeable, detailed and thorough team. When my agent asked me "are you OK if we hire Applebach to do your inspection" I didn't let her complete her sentence while interrupting her telling her I wouldn't trust anyone else. Thank you for your commitment, your service, your honesty and your trust in inspecting my homes. Anyone reading this review, look no further than to hire Applebach for your next inspection.

Scott came out and walked us through our new home. He found some issues. Gave advice on which are important for the builder to fix and those that we could fix. Very detailed and thorough. He has been in various sides of the building industry so he has a great understanding of the process.

Our realtor referred us to Scott and we were very pleased with the services he provided. He was very thorough and walked us through all issues that he found and promptly provided a detailed report that included photos and video. This was the best experience we have had with a home inspection and would highly recommend Applebach Home Inspections.

Our experience with Inspections services by Applebach Home Inspections has been very satisfactorily, the report is comprehensive and in excellent details. We feel that the property has been inspected by a highly trained prelesional giving us confidence in the purchase. Buying a pre-own property can bring many surprises in the future, we feel comfortable going into this new house after the inspection. We will recommend Applebach Home Inspections as a reliable and honest inspecting business.

Josh and Spencer performed a home inspection for me last week and I was blown away with the level of detail and attention they provided in their service. The inspection process was almost 4 hours and included a very detailed explanation to me of all the issues (and potential future issues) they uncovered. Along with their outstanding customer service, the final report is very clear and user friendly. It makes it easy to access later when I get around to fixing the issues we did not pass to the seller. I would definitely recommened Applebach Home Inspections :):)

I'm moving to Arizona from the east coast, so I did not have a clue on which home inspection company to use for my home inspection, fortunately, my realtor, Beth Steele, who is absolutely amazing, recommended Scott Applebach from Applebach Home Inspections. Beth has used him numerous times for her personal home purchases, and assured me that he would do an excellent job inspecting the home I was looking to purchase. Scott was amazing to work with. His report was very detailed and provided the information on the health, safety and structure of the home, it helped me to make an informed decision before moving forward with the purchase. I highly recommend Applebach Home Inspections to anyone looking for a thorough, yet cost-effective home inspection.

My agent chose Scott as our home inspector, and he was awesome! Not only did Scott shed light on issues/potential issues, he also suggested ways on how to address. Scott was very knowledgable in every aspect he covered. Along with outstanding customer service, the faulty of the report Scott generated is very user friendly and makes it easy to break the report into sections. I found this to be very helpful. As for price, the value is fair. Scott was at my future home for almost four hours, three of which he spent listening to my questions and helping me deeply understand his explanations. Overall, I highly recommend Applebach Home Inspections for home inspections. Thank you!

I recently had the pleasure of using the Applebach home inspection services provided by my realtor. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional, and I highly recommend their services. First and foremost, Scott - the home inspector assigned to my property was incredibly thorough. They meticulously examined every nook and cranny, leaving no stone unturned. Their attention to detail was evident, as they took the time to explain each step of the inspection process. Scott impressed me the most was the comprehensive report I received after the inspection. It was clear, concise, and provided detailed insights into the condition of the property. The report included photographs, specific observations, and recommendations for any necessary repairs or maintenance. It was evident that the home inspector went above and beyond to ensure I had all the information needed to make informed decisions. I now feel confident in making an informed decision about the property I am considering purchasing.

Scott Applebach was the utmost professional. He arrived on time, completed his inspection and met with us after. His inspection was extremely thorough and included items I would have never even thought of. Our inspection was on a new build and was completed prior to the blue tape walk through. Scott provided the report to our build manager, who was also very appreciative of the information. The inspection included all functioning items (e.g. drawers, doors, HVAC, water, gas, electric, etc...). Photos were taken and provided during meeting with Scott. Issues were circled and pointed out in photos, along with an explanation of each issue. I would highly recommend Applebach Home Inspections.

I can't recommend Scott and the Applebach team enough. He was incredibly thorough for our 10-month new home build inspection and reviewed every inch of our house to ensure everything was noted in his report. He took his time to document all of his findings and is very knowledgeable about the homes in the East Valley area. Scheduling was a breeze, his pricing was very reasonable, and he had the report to us the same day.

Scott was prompt and thorough. Arrived on time, and took his time doing a detailed inspection. He was great at explaining why he made the notes he did, and what he was noting in all of his photos. The inspection was a little over 4 hours and we received a very detailed (nearly 40 page report) later the same day. It was the perfect document to provide to the home builder for our new home one year warranty. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you to Scott for performing a through home inspection for our 1 yr new home warranty. Without his attention to detail, we would have never known about things the builder missed. His inspection has saved us financially. He was professional, kind, and timely with his report. I would not hesitate to recommend him in the future. Thank you Scott!!

Scott was wonderful. We needed to let the builder know of all the issues that needed attention before the warranty was up. He went through the house top to bottom. He was able to put together a complete report with pictures that we could send to the builder. He showed us things I would have missed if we tried to do it on our own. I highly recommend Scott.
