Ken arrived at the scheduled time.  He explained the process and what he looks for.  Ken was very knowledgeable and thorough.  He made recommendations for the areas that need improvement and provided a detailed report the next day.  We would hire them again.

We opted to do the full home inspection along with a radon test. Ken was very personable and give my fiance' a lot of information in regard to the home we are purchasing as first time home buyers. We received a 60+ pg. report the following day detailing the results of the inspection (with photos and suggestions), which is very useful. The only thing that was surprising is that the inspection was only about 1.5 hours, I was expecting longer for a 1500 sq ft. home, makes me wonder if he could have been a bit more in depth with some elements.

After locating Mid Cape Home Inspection on Angie's List and looking at reviews, I contacted them via phone to request an inspection, which was scheduled for the next week.  Ken Amelin from Mid Cape Home Inspection was very professional, thorough, courteous, and punctual. He started by explaining exactly what he was going to examine, as well as what he would not be looking at.  He took photos of various items for reference in his report. He covered the entire house and followed-up with a radon monitoring test. During inspection, he identified areas of potential issue, discussed level of significance, and made recommendations on how to mitigate the conditions. We received the report on the home inspection the day after the inspection was performed, and a follow-up summary of results on the subsequent radon test. I'd highly recommend Mid Cape Home Inspection.

He was quick, professional and detailed. We had his report emailed to us by the end of the next day.
He also provided additional tests for us, radon testing for $125, and wood destroying insect inspection for $50.

When I had a home for sale last year a potential buyer used Ken for a home inspection and shared the report with me. I was so impressed with the quality of that report that I later selected Ken to provide a home inspection on a home I am buying. I found Ken to be extremely knowledgeable as I followed him through the inspection. He provided not only good information that was pertinent to his report but also a lot of general knowledge and advice that I found very helpful. His detailed report was sent the next day electronically. I would use him again.

I thought Ken Amelin did an excellent home inspection for us.  We received his written report that same night.  He was very thorough and we were very glad we utilized his services.
