"Wow! We can't say enough nice things about Bullet! HIs work is exemplary, his reports are thorough, prices are reasonable and well worth every penny, and he genuinely cares about his clients. Oh, and he's got a great sense of humor! We will not hesitate to call T.H.I.S. if we ever need another inspection done. Thanks, Bullet!"
"Victor was easy to get ahold of and prompt with the inspection. He was very courteous, professional, and thorough. He pointed out several things that I hadn't seen. Highly recommend Victor checking out any house you are potentially buying. Well worth it!"
"Jacob replaced a storm-damaged roof for us. He was very professional from the beginning. From the inspection and estimate to the finished project, he kept us informed each step of the way. He and his crew did an excellent job, were always on time, and made sure to clean up when finished. We definitely recommend."
"It went great! They were very quick to respond and get me on the schedule. Before the repair, they showed care and concern for my home by going above and beyond in preventative work. At no cost, he put a tarp over my roof to prevent leaking when a storm was coming. He also was very communicative with my insurance company to ensure the job was done in full and correctly. I would highly recommend him."
"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

In most cases, no. The purpose of an inspection is to highlight any glaring issues with the property that the buyer might use to negotiate or want to rectify after closing, but there’s no law stating the inspection must pass. A buyer can accept any problems identified during a failed home inspection. The only exception would be lender-required repairs, which could hold up the mortgage.
There are some instances where a buyer may want to skip a home inspection, but this is not usually recommended. While home inspections are not always required as part of the homebuying or selling process, they are in the best interest of buyers. If you choose to skip the home inspection, be prepared to discover a home’s hidden secrets on your own over time.
It can be safe to live in a house with asbestos as long as the asbestos-containing materials are intact, in good condition, and not disturbed. Asbestos becomes dangerous only when its fibers are released into the air, which happens if the material is damaged, crumbling, or disturbed during renovation work. If you suspect asbestos is present, do not disturb it. Instead of removal, materials in good condition can sometimes be encapsulated. It is recommended to have regular professional inspections to monitor the condition of the asbestos and prevent health risks from potential exposure.
Hiring a structural engineer who inspects foundations is the best way to find out if your foundation is up to code. These pros know building codes in and out and can inspect your foundation and prepare a report detailing anything that doesn’t meet code. A structural engineer can also recommend fixes for any problems they spot—you’ll just need to hire a foundation contractor to do the work.
Consulting the architect of your house is not the best way to determine when it was built. Many homes are built by developers or builders, so there may not be a specific architect to track down—especially if you have a very old house. Instead, it’s best to rely on local government records.
