"Fred was professional and helpful, explaining what he did as he inspected our home. He offered both objective assessment in his report and verbal opinions about risks, when asked. I'd definitely hire him again."

"Shane was my first contact (via phone) and was very knowledgeable and went above & beyond to answer all my questions. I tend to have pretty good discernment, and I immediately sensed I was dealing with an honest, straightforward company. Shane offered me an appointment 2 days later that s fast! Awesome when you re concerned about mold! Ray came to our house (a several hour drive to the Redding area!), and was prompt & called ahead to be courteous. Total genuine and nice guy (especially bc he s a dog lover ;) He wasn t rushed at all, answered all our questions (we had a lot), and actually said he likes & welcomes questions! After we received our report & invoice, I THOUGHT I was messaging my husband, lol, but I texted Shane: Thumbs up! They did thorough testing, & the price was still what was initially quoted! I highly recommend these guys!!"

"This was not the first time using an Air Quality inspection company. They were help full, accessible, timely, accurate, and provided an analysis report that included a representative to review and answer questions. They also provided a referral to a remediation company that approached the issue in an efficient and cost effective manner."

"I needed to replace the roofing from my home because it’s been 30 years. They came in and gave an estimate the next day. They worked with me on price and advised me on what shingles were better and prices. They arrived on time and finished pretty fast. They got the job done."

"I contacted half a dozen companies to put a new roof on my two story house. Some never called back. One estimator showed up in a dirty t-shirt and jeans in a truck that belonged in the junkyard, half full of garbage. Another 'needed a few weeks' to get a bid together. Several bids were ridiculously high. And then I called Econo Roofing, after finding them here on Angie's List. Their estimator John came out right away, listened to what I wanted and added his suggestions, and gave me a bid that was very competitive. They were busy, and it took them awhile to get to me, but it was worth the wait. I have a beautiful new roof and I'm delighted with the quality of their work. They were fast, too. My neighbor had a re-roof earlier this summer from a different company. After tearing off the original roof, they sent back a team of two guys for one day, and then sent out one man for a week to finish the job. Not good. Econo Roofing had my old roof off in a day. The following day they showed up because there was a 40% chance of showers and covered my roof with the underlayment, just in case it rained. Then they sent out a team of five guys who had my beautiful new roof on in a day. Besides being fast, hard working, and efficient, they were more than fair with the original bid. The city inspector wanted some changes made, and Econo took care of it without charging me extra. They even took $500 off of the original bid that I had agreed to, without my asking, because they did not need to do any repairwork to the deck. How many other companies would do that? The folks at Econo Roofing are professional, honest, hard working, focused on customer service, friendly and efficient, as well as being very competitive on their bidding. I recommend Econo Roofing without reservation. They did a great job."

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, egress windows must meet local building codes for size and accessibility. Professional installers ensure compliance.

In most cases, a roof inspection will include a visual inspection of the exterior roofing materials, an interior inspection for signs of leaking or roof damage, and an assessment of the structural stability of your roof and the materials supporting it. Some things your roof inspector will look for include the following:

  • Missing or damaged shingles, flashing, or sealant

  • Signs of old age

  • Signs of leaks, including mold growth and water stains

  • Potential issues, like tree branches touching your roof

  • Signs of a loss of structural integrity

First, stop working with the suspecting scammer immediately. Gather any relevant information and documents from your dealings with them. If you used a credit or debit card to pay them, call your bank and report fraud. Report the scamming company to the police, and then call your insurance company to see what coverage they offer for this type of incident.

The difference between an energy auditor and a home inspector is primarily in the purpose of the inspection. The energy auditor conducts tests in your home to determine the energy efficiency levels in areas like windows, insulation, and doorways. The auditor then makes recommendations for ways to improve a home’s energy efficiency. 

A home inspector examines various structures of your home to determine that everything is up to code and gauge the condition of features like the roof, foundation, HVAC, and electrical. The home inspector reports on the overall home and makes repair recommendations.

The best way to check if a roofing company is legit is by asking the roofer for their license number. They should have no issue providing you with this information if they’re legitimate. You can also look to see if they have an online presence, read reviews, and ask contractors you’ve worked with before if they know the roofing company.
