AMERICA'S HOME CHECKERS

Mr Jolly found missing insulation, a missing vent connection, a couple of switches that don't work, and a dishwasher problem so we think the money was well spent - especially considering that the house is brand new.

They showed up on time, started going through the house, and were polite and professional the entire time.  They did a report, including pictures and itemized information which they put on their website to be easy to access.  

The issue is that they missed lots of things, as I discovered after I bought the house, including things that they had no reason to miss (foundation cracks, etc).  The report itself lists things as 'needing attention' but there is a difference between 'needing attention' for labels on a breaker box and needing attention for possible structural issues.  The report lacked any sort of gravity for the things it did list and missed a number of issues that later cropped up.

Our real estate agent contacted America's Home Checkers and scheduled the appointment for us. They were able to inspect the house within about 4 business days. They were absolutely punctual and struck a good balance between cordiality and down-to-business intensity. They responded directly and rapidly to the few concerns I expressed and satisfactorily answered them all. Their report was emailed to me within a few hours of the inspection and was formatted very professionally. Though I feel as though the inspection went somewhat more quickly than I would have preferred (a bit under 2 hours), the report they generated seemed thorough.
