Martin found severe termite damage upon arrival at the house. After seeing the damage, we pulled the offer. He saved me a ton of headaches had I not used his services. Many thanks

Marty is the best home inspector hands down. He cares about the customer and makes sure to go over every inch of the property. One of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. He's honest, reliable and knowledgeable.

This was my first experience with trying to buy a home. Marty was very thorough and honest with his inspection. He was very transparent and helped me understand the process from beginning to end. I could tell he has years of valuable experience. I will be hiring him again for my next inspection.

Marty conducted a thorough home inspection and provided a detailed quality report for us with photos. We are aware that all homes have problems, but Marty uncovered code violations and numerous egregious shoddy construction defects in a new build home that we were planning to buy. His report prevented us from making a costly mistake if we had purchased this home.. Marty was friendly yet professional. He provided excellent customer service and was even wiling to call us very late at night after our long work days were over and go over the report with us item by item. We will definitely call on Marty again when we need an inspection and recommend him to anyone looking to purchase a home.

Marty was exceptionally knowledgeable and walked us through the entire house once the inspection was complete. He pointed out the areas of concern. He was very knowledgeable with answering our questions. The written report we received a few days later detailed everything we had previously discussed. I have already recommended his services to other friends in the process of buying homes.

Marty was wonderful. He was very thorough, took his time and explained every detail to us, as well as made sure we didn't have any questions before he left. We had to reschedule at the request of the sellers and he was very understanding. We would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Marty was exceptionally knowledgeable and walked us through the entire house once the inspection was complete, pointing out areas of concern. He was patient in answering our questions. The written report we received several days later detailed everything we had previously discussed, with no surprises. We will be using his services again!

Marty actually has done 2 inspections for me. Both times he was on time. Very professional. Takes the time to explain all his findings, answers any questions you have, and also will answer questions that come up after you receive the report. The report is very thorough with pictures of problem areas. I hope I don't have to but would definitely hire Marty again. One note, the cost of service included travel costs but I was aware of that when I hired him. Still worth every penny.

We actually hired Marty twice to do 2 different home inspection the first house didnt go so well- meaning it needed way to much work I was willing to do. Marty was up fro t and honest with us about everything the would need fixed. Then he remembered us when we got to the next inspection and said right off the bat this is a much better house. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a great honest home inspector.

Marty was on time, professional, and very meticulous in his inspection. If you want someone who is going to review everything with a fine tooth comb, this is your guy. He provided a walk through after the inspection as well as a full written report. All were done in a timely and effective manner.

Martin was on time.  He was friendly and professional.  He wanted to go thru the house by himself before I got there to make his notes without interrupting questions from the potential home buyer or seller.   When I arrived, he was ready to review his findings with me and the seller.   He was very methodical about explaining his findings.  He patiently answered my questions and made recommendations as needed.   He was diplomatic in sharing his findings to both the home seller and the potential home buyer.  His comprehensive (22 page report - some of the pages were an item by item tick sheet) came later the same day as the inspection.   His findings were noted under each category and were recapped in a summary page.   There was a table of contents page that I found very helpful to flip to to find specific items.

Marty was very knowledgeable and thorough.  He took his time, took pictures and documented everything.  He explained his concerns, and the approximate cost to repair.  He spent several hours on the property.  We were satisfied with the findings and we were able to make an educated decision about the property.
Marty was honest, pleasant,  and professional.  Whether you are looking to buy a property or are thinking of putting your home on the market, you should hire him to evaluate any potential problems and save a lot of headaches as you proceed.
It was well worth the price for peace of mind.
LCall Marty!  He's Awesome!
