I had a great experience with Rick at A Healthier Home. He was responsive to my emergency request, coming out that evening for the assessment. By the next morning, I had the report and photos in my email inbox. Would definitely recommend!

Very thorough inspection of the home. Everything from simple ways to improve the energy efficiency based on observations of the structure & systems, to suggestions on ways to maintain & improve the air quality.

Never put in writing or took pictures to explain what was needed. Charged me $299 when we had agreed to a price of $199.

Rick came to find answers to my problems and did not come to lecture me about what I should have done differently. Great to work with.

I was so impressed with Rick's service! From the very beginning to the end he was asking me questions and listening to me well in order to understand the needs and problems with my condo. He was thorough and easy to understand. I felt like I was in a CSI forensics show, going over everything with him, discovering SEVERAL problem areas. He even identified what different discoloration patterns could mean on my HVAC vents! I highly recommend this company! You're in good hands. -Aaron

Prompt, professional, practical, resourceful and genuinely interested in the homeowner's well being and the longevity of the home . . . Rick Bayless's willingness to provide ongoing support and collaboration with my contractor on the major renovation of an historic home in Asheville is invaluable.

Rick came and showed me where I was losing heat and air. He took pictures and downloaded them to my computer and walked me through what needs to be done and what I can do on my own. It is very knowledgeable and answers any and all questions. I would highly recommend Rick any day.

This is by far the best investment I have made in my home. Rick Bayless is an amazing inspector. Not only is he certified in many fields, but he has practical experience that makes all the difference. One of the reasons why I picked Rick is because he only does inspections. He does not do actual repairs. This is wonderful because I know he is free of any bias or interest in discovering expensive issues. Rick started out by asking us what our concerns and issues were. We initially wanted him to inspect for mold that was causing health problems. That was just one of the many things Rick did for us. Rick did a complete top to bottom inspectio

Rick Bayless has worked with me on 2 separate occasions and I plan to continue to work with him in the near future to complete my home energy projects. He is thoroughly professional and knowledgeable. I just wish I had known about him sooner. He made me aware of problem areas that no other service had considered. What a gem. I have learned so much about home energy efficiency. Some things I will complete on my own and some things I plan to hire Rick or others to complete. Finally, I know what to tackle first and not waste my time or money. I am so impressed and absolutely pleased with his work. I absolutely recommend him to everyone

this guy was nice enough and seemed like he knew his stuff. however he charged me 125 dollars to walk around the house with me for about an hour and a half while giving me advice on house maintenance. he expected me to take notes on stuff he was saying like it was a class or something. It seems like if he is going to charge such a high price for his professional opinion he should take notes and provide a report of something. the 125 dollars did not include a singe test or official verification of anything. no paperwork or receipt, nothing. it felt like a knowledgeable buddy coming by to give advice and then charging 125 dollars. poor value f

Rick Bayless was very efficient in his work. I was under the impression he was going to give quote on insulation but he checked for heat loss. I was not aware of a charge until he came but I would highly recommend his services to others.
