BASIS Inspections, llc

Prompt, thorough, no issue with the service provided. All the folks he recommended for other ancillary services were equally as good.

He was very thorough and his report was very easy to read and detailed with pictures.

BASIS is very thorough.

He was great, did an execellent inspection of the house.

Very thorough

I will never use another company. Basis has been an affordable joy to work with.

David showed up early and got started right away. A very pleasant and personable professional. Thorough with pictures of all problem areas, that he walked me through while on site. I had the comprehensive report with a clear summary that same evening. A pleasure. Thanks David.

David A. Wigger (proprietor) is very honest and through home inspector that involves 'you' during/throughout the process and gives candid and helpful feedback options.

David did an excellent job doing my home inspection. He was very professional and knowledgeable. He came on time, he never wasted a minute. His report was very detailed, which it was a key for moving the process forward and getting all the repairs done quickly. He answered all my questions and concerns. One more thing, David is really easy to get hold of; he is very busy man but he always answered his phone and replayed very quickly to my emails and I really appreciate that. I will definitely hire him again.

There are so many major mistakes in the report that it's almost suspicious. The house was built new in 2016. He claimed there were several issues with it: A/C evaporator not drained properly/not to code. Bathroom light fixture not appropriate for the area/not to code. Soffits (I'm assuming he meant soffit vent) blocked with insulation. Under sink water filter maintenance required. Roof "may show evidence of past or present leaks or may soon develop leaks." Gutters/downspouts require maintenance. Etc. He did find a few items that needed to be fixed (one extra star for that): A mortar joint in the brick exterior needed to be filled. The driveway apron was poured a little too far into the road and is chipping where it overlaps. Whether flashing is required for siding that is completely covered by a roof or not is debatable. I was alarmed by the report when I received a copy and immediately called the builder. I'm not sure why he uses such extreme terms in his reports. After thoroughly reading the report, talking to the builder and double checking his claims, we concluded BASIS should not be in the home inspection business. Other than the items mentioned above that needed attention, he was completely incorrect about the condition of my house. I even got the city inspector involved. (If these were legitimate issues, they would be covered by the builder's warranty and the city inspector would not have let is pass). The house is built to code. The HVAC system is 100% correctly installed, the light fixture in the bathroom is rated for the area, there is no insulation blocking the soffit vent (while it may appear so when standing in the attic, if you look closely, there are ducts that run down to the soffit vent so that you can have insulation around the vents/ducts. I checked from the exterior and spot checked a few from the attic with a bore scope), the water filter had just been replaced a month ago, as indicated by the "changed on" date sticker on the filter, and the description of the condition of the gutters/downspouts was so vague I didn't even know where to look. It appears BASIS has no working knowledge of IRC or NEC and uses alarmist terminology like "HAZARD" and "non-professional work" on a whim without grounds for it. The report was so misleading that it almost seemed made up or copy and pasted from a past report. I'd be very wary of hiring him to inspect any home.

We will never use a home inspector other than David Wigger with BASIS Inspections. He pre-inspected our home before we listed it for sale, and inspected our new home for purchase. He is thorough, friendly, and addresses all questions or concerns throughout the inspection. We cannot recommend him enough for your home inspection needs.

His inspection was very thorough and detailed.  I was pleased with his detail and attention to detail.  He made sure I understood clearly all of the issues as I could not be present for the inspection.  I would definitely hire him again.

David came highly recommended to us. He was prompt, thorough, efficient and very respectful. We told him it was our first home to purchase. He was great at giving advice and answering all questions. He made both and my spouse and me feel comfortable knowing that he was knowledgeable and willing to offer proper advise. We never felt rushed or in his way. I will be recommending him to anyone that needs a home inspection.

Great, David was very friendly, responsive and punctual. He did a thorough 2.5 hour inspection and explained all of his findings on the spot, then delivered a lengthy report within one day. I would definitely use David again.

David Wigger, is great! Was spot on time. Each step of the inspection was explained in a understandable way. I did not feel as if I was being over talked to, or under talked to. Each area  was explained as we were going on, he also pointed out what he was looking for, or in some cases what he is not looking for.

He offered his opinion on some matters, and imparted his knowledge on some of the finer points of the inspection. The report he submitted was great, explained what needed to be corrected.

All I can really say is if I need a re-inspection or if I have another home purchases I know I will do business with David again!!

Excellent. Mr. Wigger was very thorough and knowledgeable.  He took his time and did not rush the inspection.  He answered all my questions during the inspection. He timely (within a day) provided me with a very detailed, organized, and explanative inspection report complete with photos he had taken.  Extra touches like including photos of the HVAC informational date plates were included in the report for my easy reference. Again, very thorough and excellent job.

David was knowledgeable, nice, professional and very detailed in his inspection. He found a leaky hotwater tank. If something did seem right, he would ask questions until he got the answers.

Punctual, professional and courteous. I will recommend David to anyone needing an inspection. I'm not great at giving reviews but I cannot stress enough how pleased we were with the service we received. A+

Dave arrived on time and and completed the inspection 1.5 hours later.  It was very thorough, very.  Dave answered all my questions and gave a recommendation on whether or not it was necessary to do a structural inspection, a major concern of mine.  In this case it wasn't.  This is the 2nd time I have used Dave for a home inspection, and both times the experience was great.  He is quite professional, respectful of the property and I can fully trust his opinion.  (I found that out the first time.)



You can't go wrong using Basis Inspections, LLC.  I wouldn't hesitate for one second to recommend him.

David is extremely detailed and very professional.  He thoroughly inspected virtually every aspect of our home and produced an extremely detailed written summary with colored pictures which we referenced to correct any/all major home electrical/mechanical/structural deficiencies.  David was extremely personable and very knowledgable.  He wasn't cheap but as a home buyer I was glad we paid the price for his professional service given the detailed/professional results.

Home inspection was very, very thorough and also included an excellent termite inspection by affiliated professional.  Quite patient in
explaining things to me. The accompanying termite inspection was good as well.  I will be using Dave again.  By the way, he was recommended to me by my realtor AND I read the positive reviews about him on Angie's List.  That convinced me to go with him and I am extremely pleased I did.
