Ed arrived on-time and submitted his report at the promised time. Very efficient, organized and knowledgeable. Did his inspection in an orderly manner and took photographs to document his findings. Highly recommended.

This is the second time we've used Ed. Back in 2016, he performed an inspection for our first home purchase. He did such a good job, we asked him to do it again for our move. Unlike a lot of inspectors that I've spoken to, Ed encourages the homeowner to walk with him throughout the property. He points out problems and gives real-time feedback on how it needs to be addressed, how serious it is, etc. He's so good identifying issues that it might make a future homeowner concerned that they're getting a lemon, but he's quick to point out when a problem isn't really all that big of a problem, too. Both times, we've gotten a crash course in home inspections and local regulations. This was beneficial to us for a number of reasons: 1. We were able to create a list rather quickly of the items we wanted to address when we first moved in. 2. When we got the inspection report later that day, we could look through it and have all the context of what he was trying to convey because we were with him the whole time. This can't be understated. It eliminates a lot of confusion. 3. When the time comes to negotiate with the seller, you have greater bargaining power. Ed's report are detailed and highly professional. Both times we've used him, we have been able to negotiate buybacks with the seller. Highly recommend Ed.

Ed Fryday at Space City Inspections did a great job with my recent home inspection. He was very professional and explained every step. He also pointed out every defect and explained each issue in easy-to-understand language. He is deeply knowledgeable and thorough, which helped give me the confidence I needed to understand the condition of the house. I highly recommended Space City Inspections.

Mr. Fryday from Space City Inspections was prompt, professional, and thorough on our home inspection. He was able to walk my husband step by step through the inspection, and took his time. We were very happy with how quickly he made himself available during our option period, and he got the report back in a flash! Highly recommend.

As a young first time home buyer I have found Ed Friday to be some one I could trust and rely on. He was transparent and knowledgeable with any house issues that were found. Given a quick notice he came through and got the job done. His customer service was great and he even went out of his way to help me out with my work schedule! In conclusion his report was well put together, he answered all my calls/questions, and made sure I was taking care of!

Ed Fryday from Space City Inspections did an incredible job with the inspection on our new construction home. He was extremely thorough and detailed. He pointed out problems that few inspectors would have noticed. He cited building codes and installation instructions that go beyond building codes. Without his help we would not have found some problems until much later. He was even available for follow-up questions after the initial inspection. I will certainly hire him again for our next home purchase. The inspection was worth every penny.

Made arrangements with Ed from 1500 miles away, no issues at all, very accommodating. He arrived on time, fully equipped with everything he needed. He was very thorough, very knowledgeable and fully explained any issues that came up. A true professional. Received the report in less than 8 hours which was really a surprise.

Wonderful! Very thorough and explanatory! I used Space City Inspections when I bought my first home, and made sure to keep his card and used him again 7 years later. He was just as professional and thorough as ever! He also gives great suggestions and recommendations.

I was worried because I could not be there for the inspection. Ed is so incredibly detailed and thorough, that my absence didn't matter. I have never seen someone take such a vested interest and do such a fantastic job. He truly is the best inspector I've ever used -- which is a huge understatement. This man clearly loves what he does and it shows. Thank you, Ed!

Ed was fantastic! My husband and I are buying our first home, and there's a lot we don't know. When I mentioned this to Ed, he encouraged me to follow him around and ask questions, and I did - For FOUR hours! Ed was incredibly polite and friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. Not only did he answer all of my many questions, but he constantly offered pointers and suggestions on his own. Additionally, even though he was extremely thorough, he was great about letting me know which issues were real problems, and which other issues were insignificant and a matter of taste. In a month we'll step into our first house fully confident and full of new knowledge about how to do home ownership right, all thanks to Ed.

Ed Fryday at Space City Inspections did an absolutely fantastic job inspecting our newly constructed home. He was extremely thorough and very detailed. I was amazed at all the things he checked for. I've seen other reports from other inspectors and I have to say Ed checks for many many many things others just don't. And his reports are very detailed and delivered quickly. He is easy to work with and straightforward. So much so that I recommended my sister use his services. She has and is also another very happy customer. His credentials put him in a class by himself, and is involved in the state regulatory circles as well as the industry's activities so he's on-the-ball with current info. I highly recommend him!

We are buying a newly built house and was skeptical about home inspection. I mean, how defective can a new house be? However, we convinced ourselves that the fee is only 0.1% of our investment. Ed Fryday was our first choice after reviewing his website. He accommodated us in his schedule and was flexible with days and time. At the site, he was very thorough and shared his expert comments, with a novice like me, beyond regular inspection. I recommend shadowing him during inspection to learn more about your house, however, his thorough report is pretty self explanatory as well. Ed did a thorough job and also showed off his sense of humor. Ed Fryday is my sincere recommendation to anyone looking for a home inspector.

Ed was prompt, friendly and very thorough and very knowledgeable. He had an excellent grasp of home code off the top of his head and provided a great inspection report.
The format of the report was in an easy to read format with pictures and arrows pointing out issues with the home. This made passing the report along to the builder/contractors a breeze.
I'd definitely use Ed again, out of the 3 inspection reports I've ever gotten, this was the best.

Mr. Ed Fryday is a lifesaver! I am in the market for a home...one with some character. Searching for an older home can be a challenge because of the obvious issues that come with age. Mr. Fryday inspected two homes for me. Both inspections were very thorough, even impressing the real estate agents! He was extremely professional and took the time to go over each detail of his report. In both cases, I walked away feeling completely informed, with all the information I needed to make a home purchase decision. Without Mr. Fryday, I may have made a decision that would have proven to be very costly in the long run. I highly recommend him to serve as the home inspector for your home purchase. You will be thankful that you did!
