Matt provided the most educational and thorough inspection. This isn't my first purchase, but it is my first single family home, so one of the most important things to me from the inspection was to learn as much as I could about the house. Matt went above and beyond my expectations. He was happy to have me shadow him as he conducted the inspection - actually, he encourages this. He talked me through all of his major and minor concerns, pointed out things that had been done well vs. poorly, explained proper maintenance of many items, and addressed every single question I had (which were numerous). He even gave me advice on how to approach some projects that I was thinking about once I owned the place. One huge benefit for working with Matt is that he only books one inspection in a day. This means that he's not rushing to get through the inspection quickly, plus he's usually able to finish the report that afternoon/evening. I got my report the same day as my inspection (and it was thorough, he clearly put time into it). I highly recommend HomeSpy!

As a first time homebuyer, HomeSpy Inspections made the process extremely easy and informative. I was able to quickly schedule an inspection. Matt was very friendly, professional, and informative. When I arrived, he explained what his process was from start to finish and offered to explain everything as he went along. As we were walking through he'd give me advice about future projects I had, and explained all of my questions very thoroughly. I would definitely recommend using HomeSpy Inspections.

Received a quote for a new house home inspection from Matt. Loved talking with him through the process. He is very thorough and with that comes a higher cost. He simply exceeded our budget. If money was not an issue, I would have hired Matt as he seemed to have the most expertise.

It's a new house that we purchased, so the builder went over every item pretty much. They're excellent. Roughly, they were reasonable. They're not pushy. I wanted a home inspection and the other guy tried to sell me something else. These guys, they know what to do, i just signed a contract. They came in very clean, and this gentleman work very hard. He was on time. They're great, both husband and wife work together in tandem, and they're nearby. I don't have any recommendations for improvement.
Description of Work: The inspector just looked around, check the lighting, electricity, looked outside and at the painting. He looked at the roof. We found some cracked tiles. The air conditioning connections were not hooked up. He just had to notify the builder to fix those before we close on the house.

Chris was very diligent and professional during his inspection. He took time to explain everything and answered all the questions I had. His #1 priority was to make sure that all faults were noted and what we should ask our seller to take care of. The price was higher than I was used to paying for home inspections, but as the adage goes - you get what you pay for and you definitely get your value with Chris.

Chris actually showed up a little early. He was very professional and personable. The inspection was very thorough, including every area inside and out. He walked me through all of his findings and answered any questions I had. The report, that was provided promptly the next day, was also very detailed and professional. I was able to get the seller to make a number of improvements based on the findings in the inspection report, and am closing on the house today.

I called Chris before hiring them to do the inspection, and he patiently addressed and answered all my questions about what would be included in the inspection. He scheduled and performed the inspection within a few days of my request, and sent me a thorough inspection report. There were some things that needed to be addressed with the house, and of course that's why one gets an inspection report. Chris was extremely thorough, and his expertise, along with my request, resulted in a $10,000 credit on the price of the house. The cost of the inspection was well worth the results. Additionally, I asked him to perform a radon test, and he informed me that his price would likely be higher than someone else whose business was closer, because he had to take into account the time it would take to come to and from the home twice. I would call Chris first for any home inspections needed in the future.

Chris at Homespy Inspections was wonderful! We needed a last-minute inspector,and he came to our home in Boulder (and came back for the radon test several days later, even though it was a long drive for him). He was incredibly thorough and went out of his way to spend extra time explaining everything to us. His write-up was very helpful for both short-term fixes and ideas for long-term maintenance. He made the overwhelming process of buying an older home more approachable. We give him our strongest recommendation- thank you, Chris!

How does this company receive the rating that it has? I called and emailed HomeSpy Property Inspection to compare pricing and ask questions regarding a new home construction inspection. We are purchasing a new home and currently do not reside in the state so we are overly cautious and want to make sure that we hire the right people for any service performed on our home. We asked questions based off of our previous home inspections and wanted to see how HomeSpy Property Inspection would compare.Chris(the owner) exact response without knowing all of the information about our relocation was, and quot;This is Chris. We recommend that you hire the previous inspector that you speak aboutand quot;. We did not overload the guy with questions but we did have questions. Not to mention, he is the absolute highest priced inspector that we received a quote from on Angieslist and every other inspector that we called was more than helpful in answering all of our questions because they understood our situation. I would avoid this company and go with someone who will value your business and understand the importance of your home purchase be it new construction, existing construction or investment property, not someone that I guess has grown too much to value your business and understand the importance of your new home.

Response from HomeSpy Inspections
It should be understood that this "F" rating is based on a phone conversation only. We were not hired to inspect a property. After spending over 20 minutes during two different phone conversations, it became clear that we did not provide some of the specialty services that this person was asking about, and our service was not going to meet their expectations. In as nice a manner as we could, we explained that we are probably not the best fit for their needs and recommended contacting other inspection services. We are sorry that they took this recommendation the wrong way and feel very strongly that their rating would have been much different if we actually performed an inspection.

Great. Chris identified many issues and explained building codes and requirements to us. He was prompt, and communication was great with him before, during and after inspections were completed. Chris does a complete and exhaustive inspection of home features and systems (excluding sewer lines), and then provides an easy to understand and painstakingly compiled report with pictures and explanations of home systems and their functions, as well as identifying any deficiencies in the property you are considering buying. Chris inspected our old home when we bought it in 2007, and we have used many of his recommended contractors and they have been uniformly good experiences. It is a great resource, and much appreciated as it is so helpful to have a trusted number to call if you need a repair (especially when it is an emergency).
Description of Work: Chris Anderson did a thorough inspection on our new home, and tested for radon. He is meticulous and he is very willing to help you understand your new home's systems and any deficiencies that may exist. He spent about 6 hours inspecting and then explaining issues for us. He also provides a list of preferred home contractors (favoring independent small businesses).

We had our new home inspected by Chris with HomeSpy Inspections. He is very professional, punctual and knowledgeable. He arrived early and immediately started taking photos of the outside, before we arrived. It was a chilly morning, so we went inside and met with our home builder superintendent to do our walk thru, while Chris inspected the outside. Once he was finished, he walked us through the outside, inside and basement and explained how things work, provided advice on how to maintain items, and offered recommendations (like getting water sensors!) His inspection was very thorough and although he told us if he didn’t find much, we wouldn’t have to pay for a formal report, we decided to have the report completed. The report was very detailed and included many pictures of what he found. We highly recommend Chris and will use him again, most likely before our 1 year warranty is up.

We were very pleased with the inspection we received. It was well worth the money. I even called Chris to talk with him during the negotiation process as I valued his expertise. If you are interested in a detailed inspection, please contact Chris. He was very responsive, professional and incredibly knowledgeable! We feel confident in our purchase and have a detailed report to refer to when we are ready to make minor repairs in the future.
Description of Work: Chris performed a very thorough inspection of our Baker Home prior to closing. The home was built in 1900 so we wanted to pay a little extra to get a comprehensive inspection due to the risk of buying an older home. The inspection lasted a total of 4 hours and we arrived for the last hour and a half to review the results of the inspection w/ Chris.

Chris was great. Very thorough and professional. He went over every detail with me and answered every question that I had. He even answered a question a week later when I called him. I could not be more happier. I could not me more satisfied. As a tradesperson myself, I thought I had noticed everything in the house we are buying that needed attention. After walking the house with Chris, I stood corrected. There is a reason why he is top rated. My advice for people reading this, don't take chances by shopping for the cheapest "anything" when it comes to your home. Reviews and Referrals are the only way to go.

Mr Anderson was very nice. He prefers to walk around the house with you and show you what he sees, explaining as you go, but gives you the freedom to do what you want or need to while on the property. He was exceedingly thorough, noticing things that I definitely didn't, and that I don't think other inspectors might have. He provided a detailed photographic report within 24 hours detailing the results of his inspection and recommendations based on what was seen. For example, based on his recommendations, the property was inspected by a certified structural engineer, who stated that he was very impressed by Mr Anderson's discerning eye and that he was better than most other home inspectors. He also did a very thorough inspection of the furnace, noting that it was not working properly -- something that was only obvious after repeat cycling.

Amazing work! My Mom was buying a condo up here in Denver and was worried since it was an older unit. E?mailed HomeSpy and got an immediate reply, scheduled quickly and arrived exactly on time. Inspection was VERY through and they took the time to explain their findings in a way that me and my 84 year old mom could understand. I had found some concerns but they found major things that we had the that we had the buyer fix. Saved my Mom the cost of the inspection plus tons! Call them u won't be disappointed!

Chris got to the house before me and worked the exterior including walking the roof. He then walked me around the outside of the house pointing out specific areas of concern and also items that I won't need to be concerned about at the present time. Then he went inside and proceeded to spend about 3 more hours examining everything. I accompanied Chris for a good part of his inspection asking lots of questions along the way. I certainly felt like Chris was thorough and knowledgeable. At first I thought the cost was high, but based on the kind of inspection the house received, I got my money's worth and can unequivocally recommend Chris to you. The following morning Chris emailed me a complete written inspection report and Radon report.

Chris was professional, thorough and courteous. He spent over four hours in our home! He wrote a detailed report, with pictures, that was easy to understand. He emailed us the report in record time. We used the report for an important meeting with a "Risk Manager" less than 48 hours later. Because of Chris' report, "construction shortcomings" will be repaired.
Description of Work: We hired Chris to do an inspection of our home because our one year warranty limit on our new home was fast approaching.
