The inspector did a great job.

This was my first time using Scott Inspection, although I have used 3 or 4 other companies in the past. I chose Scott Inspections for this particular investment home purchase because of the range of services offered. I have had Fort Collins area sewer scope companies fail to show, which is beyond frustrating. I've also had these same sewer scope companies upcharge once on site and actually cause damage to toilets. Scott Inspection arrived promptly and provided as thorough an inspection as I have ever received. The sewer scope was problematic, as they tend to be in older homes, but the inspector solved the issue, scoped the sewer and did NOT upcharge. I highly recommend this company.

Very thorough & professional.

Nothing out of the ordinary was found to be wrong with the home, so the inspection was what we expected, a few minor items. Scott Home Inspection even noted in our report some details that might become an issue in the future, so we appreciated that for our records.

I used Scott Home Inspection for my home purchase. They we highly professional and detailed. Alan inspected all parts of the home and explained to me what he saw. There were several inspections that could not be performed one day and they came out the next day and followed up with a report. I was extremely impressed with the detailed reporting that was provided after the inspection. It was easy to understand what was being reviewed and what needed to be followed up on. They are well worth the cost.

Very good service by very professional people.

All three times I needed their services, the responded quickly and were punctual. Unfortunately, on the house I ended up purchasing, several plumbing problems were missed, and the verbal report of the sewer inspection at the time the work was done did not match the written report. My bad - I relied on the verbal report and did not read the written report, and as a result I had to completely replace the sewer line from the house to the street. I can't blame Scott that I didn't read the report, but if the verbal discussion of the sewer scope findings had been accurate, I would have handled the sale differently. In addition, they missed the fact that there was negative slope in the drain pipe from the kitchen and laundry area which also ended up costing me quite a lot to get fixed.

The energy audit went smoothly without a hitch and before he left he gave me a full bound report with pictures and detailed recommendations. Would recommend highly. The video scope also went well, except the condition of my sewer line (full of water) prevented him from seeing what he wanted to see. I was still given a report and a DVD, but was not charged a cent. Super decent on the part of the company. They also gave me suggestions for a contractor who could open the line for me.

I looked at several home inspectors. I chose Scott because they had lots of good reviews and their website was clear and easy to navigate. I especially like that they post their prices clearly on their website. The posted fee is exactly what they charged me and they did not try to talk me into additional services, which I also appreciate. The inspector, Luke, arrived on time. He was clean-cut, professional and personable. He did a very thorough inspection of the house (he checked each and every door hinge in the house including the cabinet hinges in the kitchen...that would not have occurred to me!) A radon test was performed. He walked me around the house and pointed out all the issues and maintenance concerns. I would hire Scott again.

We hired George based on the recommendation of our realtor to conduct a home inspection, radon test, sewer inspection and energy efficiency audit. He was easy to book for the inspection and sent a confirmation reminder by email. When we met him for the day of the inspection, he immediately told us that we didn't need the energy efficiency audit as the house was made of brick. He felt that we wouldn't get our money's worth from the energy audit, so he offered to skip that charge and just give us tips throughout the inspection. He spent several hours with us walking through the house and explaining everything. We learned several things about the house that we would not have otherwise. No question was too silly for George to take the time and carefully answer. A few hours after the inspection, he sent us a detailed 47-page report with photos and detailed explanations. He was a pleasure to work with, and we'd hire him again in an instant.

They were on time, and completed on time. And the report came in later that day and was professionally done.

George, the owner, was very thorough with the inspection and did not appear to miss anything that was critical and needed to be fixed. He also had a lot of recommendations for preventive maintenance; things you could do to prevent damage to the home. He was easy to communicate with and I give him A's across the board. I will use him again in the future.

I found Scott Inspection online and was impressed right away with their professional website and the ability to schedule appts online! All very high-tech which I appreciated compared to other websites I was finding. Because of a very accelerated closing schedule, they made space for me when they were already quite booked, which I appreciated immensely. Ann Scott went above and beyond to make this happen for me. I met the inspector Luke at the house and he was prompt, prepared and open to explaining anything to me if I so desired. He was extremely thorough and very informative. He knew exactly what to look for and took lots of pictures and provided commentary for me to understand what the issues were.I also chose Scott because they also provide Sewer Scoping services which made it easier than dealing with another service provider. Their technician Daniel came with his equipment and immediately got to work. After awhile he called me down to look at some things on his monitor and then explained in detail what he was seeing and what his concerns were. Before he left, he provided me with a DVD of the whole scope which he also commentated. Luke completed the inspection in a timely manner, went over everything with me and made sure I was completely satisfied before he left. I had the VERY thorough report, complete with pictures and explanations by 6pm, all available online.

The inspector still came to perform the inspection inspite of a huge snow storm. Luke Griess arrived on time and did a very thorough inspection of the foreclosure we are purchasing. He used a thermal scanner and didn't seem to miss a thing. We were very pleased with the service provided and greatly value the report generated from his inspection. The report gives the problem, how bad it is and what needs to be done to fix it. The information is amazing and extremely helpful. The price was very competitive and especially good for the value of the service we received. Thank you Scott Home Inspection! Holmes from HGTV would be proud! =)

I can start by saying, "Wow!" As to the future of the inspected home, it turned out to be a possible money pit. George detected so many concerns about the house which highly suggested structural and water drainage issues. These issues were not listed in the seller's disclosure list. George found multiple drywall cracks that had been professionally repaired. He also noticed most upstairs doors had been re-planed to adjust to the out of square door frames. George also expressed concerns that storage (boxes, ect) in the basement could be staged to hide repaired concrete flooring because of the unusual slope of the basement floor. We did move some boxes to help confirm that the concrete had indeed been patched. In brief, George photographed and documented his findings. He remained professional and unbiased throughout the entire process. He never said, "I wouldn't buy this house". He tried to explain the possible causes for his findings and he highly recommended that we hire a structural engineer to investigate the house further due to George's findings. It was my wife's and my decision to exit the contract with the seller. When we do find another home to possible purchase, we will definitely call Scott's Home Inspection again.

Appointment was scheduled within a week of the request. The team was very responsive and even took the time to send several emails to us over the weekend to ensure quick scheduling. Service was performed by Luke Griess. Luke was very professional and knowledgeable. This was an inspection of an older house and Luke took the time to ensure he had inspected everything. We had an immediate summary while still on site and final report was delivered to us the same day. We highly recommend Scott Home Inspection!

Mr. Scott was extremely professional, courteous and his report was detailed and thorough. There were a few hiccups in the appointment scheduling process, but Mr. Scott was extremely prompt when the appointment time was finalized. He performed an extremely detailed review of hte home and provided very helpful repair and replacement suggestions. I would absolutely recommend using him for any inspection.

The prices are very cleared posted on their website. George checked all room for any internal, exterior, fence and roof damages. The price also included major systems like heating, cooling, foundation, sprinklers, water, outlets throughout the house. He also found all the "mysterious switches" that turns on something for me. Before he left, we verbally went over the report. He answered all my questions. The report was a downloadable 31 page pdf report.

Mr. George Scott is the owner of the company. My overall experience was excellent. They were thorough and they showed up on time. They explained what they were doing. They gave me a detailed written report. They used infrared cameras and they performed tests. They pointed all the areas that I needed to prioritize for energy reduction measures that I am currently taking. There was no negative experience eith them.
