For me, the best thing about Ken was his immediate response to our request for help. He was very thorough and knowledgeable. Because of his quick response, we were able to fix our issue before it became a monumental problem. I would highly recommend Ken and his service.

Talked to Ken prior to hiring him and he seemed to be up front and honest with me and proved me to be correct. Ken did an excellent job, per my realtor, inspecting the house I am purchasing in Sun City. Ken was quick to call me and let me know what he found. The report he sent was through and complete. Thanks for a job well done Ken.

Ken took all the appropriate Coronavirus warnings for keeping a social distance , came prepared, knew his business and did it all in a timely manner-what more could a homeowner ask for.

Ken cares about what he does, and the people who hire him. Ken told us straight about several concerns regarding the property and provided information that helped us prioritize the list. He is a consummate professional, and one of the most knowledgeable people I've met concerning structural integrity, electrical and plumbing systems and general condition of the home. Hands down, the most thorough and professional home inspector I've ever dealt with.

Hired Marchi over others offering discounts based on reviews. VERY GOOD DECISION! The inspection was prompt and very thorough. Ken disclosed a number of concerns I hadn t seen, some potentially expensive. The report was thorough with photos and clear descriptions. I wouldn t hesitate to use his service sgain.

I called Ken Marchi s House Detectives to inquire of a non visable mold concern. Ken reviewed possibilities of causation and recommendations towards corrective action. Thorough assessment and explanation by Ken provided me comfort that I made the right choice in requesting an expert opinion.

I had an unusual need in asking Ken to review another inspector s work and to comment on the priority of the repairs. Other inspectors weren t interested. Ken was open to the idea and shared tips with me, such as reviewing previous permits online.

Very knowledgeable! We had some concerns about air quality in our home, after doing a mail order "self" test. He came out and not only tested the house, we got results back the next day. If we ever look for another property we will be calling him for a pre-sale home inspection.
