Mark was amazing! I'm buying my first house and he went above and beyond to make sure it would be a safe place for my son and I. He even offered to help me do any repairs I wasn't sure how to do and if he couldn't do it to help me find someone who could! 10/10!

Mark was professional and extremely detailed in his inspection of my new construction home. He fit me into his schedule with less than 2 weeks notice and showed up day of with a binder containing all necessary paperwork. He walked my father and I through all findings within his report and answered all questions before leaving. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a home inspection.

Mark was the most thorough and professional inspector we have ever worked with. His attention to detail is second to none and he took time to educate us on all aspects of the home, and the report. He answered our questions patiently, and emphasized his availability for any follow on questions or concerns in the future. The organized and detailed format of the report was impressive. All in all, top notch service and professionalism. Thank you FPHI!

I HIGHLY recommend Mark. Not only was he thoroughly enjoyable to work with, but the insight he shared was worth every dollar! When purchasing a house, he is the house inspector to choose! Mark not only provided us with thorough details of what needs to be repaired in the house, but I also left our meeting feeling like I had already lived in the house for 5 years. Thank you Mark!!! You made our house purchasing experience top rate!!!

From first contact to final report, Mark was easy to work with and provided a stellar service. He came recommended to us, and as first time home buyers, we really valued the amount of time he spent explaining his findings, offering guidance, and the thorough inspection he performed, which was detailed in the meticulous report he prepared. I am grateful to know what maintenance issues may arise in our new home so we can budget appropriately; I will not hesitate to use him again or recommended him to family and friends!

The experience working with Fighter Pilot was superior in every way. From the first inquiry to the delivery of the inspection report (one day after the inspection!), we could not have been more satisfied with the scope of work. If you don't want to know about it, don't hire Fighter Pilot! Otherwise, expect a professional experience delivered exactly as promised. We shopped around for pricing not knowing the "going rate", and Fighter Pilot's fees matched every other quote. Worth every cent considering the time spent inspecting, detailed review (at the end of the inspection itself) and subsequent report received.

Went perfectly. Mark McCauley is a man of the highest integrity and professionalism. His attention to detail and safety issues is second to none. He took ample time explaining the inspection and answering any questions we had. A man of impeccable character and a real class act. The best choice I ever made in the home inspection arena.

Mark was Awesome! I really had no idea what all a home inspection entails but he was so thorough and meticulous. Mark went over everything so I understood what needed to be done right away and what could wait but would eventually have to get completed. He was courteous and professional, and took his shoes off when he came in the door. Prior to starting the inspection he went over the booklet designed for our home, and explained what he would be doing inside and outside of our home. We Highly recommend Mark for home inspections and home repairs.

Mark did a great job communicating, emailing and calling to setup inspection times. Mark was clear and explained everything relating to the job which made us feel relaxed and more knowledgable of the issue at hand. Upon leaving Mark made some recommendations for how we can proceed with correcting any issue. Thank you, Mark!
