AMERISPEC HOME INSPECTION SERVICE

Mr. Watson did an outstanding job!  
If you use someone else, it's on you.

John Watson arrived right on time.  He told us what he was going to do and then went right to work.  He was very thorough..  He inspected the house for about three and a half hours.  At the end, he showed us pictures of some things that needed attention.  We received the inspection report 48 hours later.  It was very clear, stating whether something was serviceable, should be reviewed, or needed repaired.  He called me back promptly when I needed additional clarification on an item on the report.

QUICK RESPONSE TIME IN SCHEDULING, VERY THROUGH, AND JUST GENERALLY HELPFUL.

Tom was wonderful. Very professional and very informative. He took the time to explain what he was looking for, what he was seeing, what he was doing, and answered all of our questions. The inspection took over 3 hours but Tom went over the entire house from roof to flooring. We feel that we now know so much about our new home. Within 48 hours of the inspection, we had our written report and the termite report e-mailed to us. We are very happy with Tom and his service.

I felt that he was deceptive. He did not go & check the attic at all because "he couldn't find the opening" & didn't think to ask the owners, who were home at the time. After every electrical check, throughout his report, his end comment for each item (i.e. electrical, plumbing, etc.) was "I'm not an electrician, seek the services of a electrician." The gas overflow to the water heater was completely rusty & filled with holes, & when it was pointed out that somebody could have gotten carbon monoxide poisoning & died, he stated, "I wasn't concerned because you hadn't bought the house yet". Meanwhile, 2 other people were living there & were not notified either.

TOM NEWKIRK DID THE MOST THOROUGH HOME INSPECTION WE'VE EVER EXPERIENCED. WE SPENT OVER 4 HOURS WITH TOM AND HE HELPED US LEARN SO MUCH ABOUT THE NEW HOME WE WERE ABOUT TO BUY. HE'S VERY UPFRONT AND INFORMATIVE AND IS BASICALLY THERE TO GIVE YOU THE FACTS AND LET YOU MAKE THE DECISION OF WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO CONTINUE TO PURCHASE THE HOME. WE FELT SO LUCKY TO HAVE HIRED HIM TO DO THE HOME INSPECTION!!

TOM NEWKIRK WAS PROMPT AND GOT TO WORK RIGHT AWAY. HE THOROUGHLY INSPECTED THE ENTIRE HOUSE (INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR), AND GAVE COMMENTS ALONG THE WAY. WHEN THE INSPECTION WAS FINISHED, HE REVIEWED HIS FINDINGS WITH US THOROUGHLY. WE THEN RECEIVED A COMPREHENSIVE WRITTEN REPORT WITHIN TWO BUSINESS DAYS. ALSO PROVIDED A TERMITE INSPECTION AND RADON REPORT FOR US.

GREAT EXPERIENCE. VERY SIMPLE. RESULTS GIVEN AS SOON AS THEY CAME BACK FROM THE LAB. TEST PERFORMED DURING A HOME INSPECTION.

AMOUNT PAID WAS $255 PER PROPERTY AND EACH INCLUDED A $20 ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT. TOM NEWKIRK DID A WONDERFUL JOB. FOLLOWING INSPECTION ON FIRST PROPERTY, I DECIDED NOT TO PURCHASE CONDO. TOM WAS ABLE TO SCHEDULE INSPECTION FOR SECOND UNIT ON SHORT NOTICE DUE TO TIGHT TIME FRAME. HE WAS VERY THOROUGH AT BOTH PROPERTIES. HE EXPLAINED IN LAYMAN'S TERMS EACH ITEM HE FOUND. HE WAS PLEASANT AND PERSONABLE AS WELL. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TOM NEWKIRK TO ANYONE NEEDING HOME INSPECTIONS.

TOM WAS VERY THOROUGH WITH HIS INSPECTION AND PROVIDED A LOT OF INFORMATION ON WHAT HE FOUND, BOTH IMPORTANT AND FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY. WAS VERY PUNCTUAL, PROFESSIONAL AND FRIENDLY. HE ALSO CALLED ME BACK WITHIN A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY, AND TOM, FOR FUTURE INSPECTION NEEDS. WE CHECKED 4 OTHER COMPANIES AND HE HAD THE BEST PRICE FOR DOING BOTH INSPECTIONS.

TOM WAS VERY PERSONABLE AND EVEN THOUGH HE WAS A LITTLE LATE HE CALLED TO LET US KNOW WHERE HE WAS AND WHEN HE WOULD GET THERE. HIS INSPECTION WAS EXTREMELY THOROUGH. HE TOOK HIS TIME AND EXPLAINED THINGS TO US AS HE WENT. WE HAVE BEEN THROUGH HOME INSPECTIONS BEFORE, BUT THOUGHT THIS ONE WAS RATED OUR BEST FOR PRICE, THOROUGHNESS, AND A NICE FRIENDLY PERSONALITY. WE DID NOT ALWAYS GET THE ANSWERS WE HAD HOPED FOR, BUT THAT IS WHY WE HIRED HIM.

TOM WAS EXCELLENT. DEMONSTRATED HOW TO USE AND TEST EQUIPMENT IN THE HOUSE. VERY INFORMATIVE AND THOROUGH.

TOM NEWKIRK WAS DOWN-TO-EARTH AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. AS HE PERFORMED THE INSPECTION, HE SHARED ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT WILL HELP US MAINTAIN OUR HOME WELL. HE SEEMED QUITE THOROUGH AND SAVED US MONEY BY DETERMINING THAT THE HOUSE WE WERE ABOUT TO PURCHASE NEEDED A NEW ROOF.

THEY WERE THOROUGH AND POINTED OUT THINGS THAT NO OTHER HOME INSPECTION SERVICE HAS DONE. LIKE EDUCATING US ABOUT HOW CERTAIN THINGS IN THE HOUSE WORKED.

THE OWNER, JIM MURPHY, WAS EXCELLENT ON THE PHONE AND PROVIDED DETAILED INFORMATION AT THE TIME OF SCHEDULING (E.G., WHAT RADON LEVELS MEAN AND WHAT IS ACCEPTABLE). WONDERFUL PROFESSIONALISM. TOM NEWKIRK CONDUCTED THE INSPECTION AND WAS AMAZINGLY THOROUGH, FRIENDLY, AND PROVIDED IN-DEPTH DESCRIPTIONS AND EXPLANATIONS OF EVERY ASPECT OF THE HOME INSPECTION.

ABSOLUTELY NO COMPLAINTS. THEY WERE ON TIME AND COMPLETED THE INSPECTION IN THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT THEY SCHEDULED. THEY WERE VERY THOROUGH IN CHECKING EVERYTHING INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF THE HOME. THEY WERE ALSO VERY PATIENT AND THOROUGH ABOUT ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS WE HAD AND EXPLAINING ANYTHING THAT NEEDED DETAILED ATTENTION. WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE AND WILL USE THEM AGAIN IF NEEDED.

VERY THOROUGH, VERY PROFESSIONAL, COMPETITIVE PRICING, DID A GOOD JOB

INSPECTOR WAS TIM FENDAL, WAS 20 MINUTES LATE BUT CAME FROM ANOTHER JOB, EXTREMELY THOROUGH; HE WOULD BE VERY USEFUL TO A FIRST-TIME HOME BUYER LIKE MYSELF. THEY WERE ABLE TO GET ME IN VERY QUICKLY. I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM
