This company has proved itself to be extremely prompt and cooperative in scheduling, as well as in arriving for the inspection and producing a written report. I have had two houses inspected by them in the past two months. The inspector (Nick) is very pleasant and, more importantly, very thorough and focused. From my perspective as an experienced homeowner of over 35 years, his knowledge is comprehensive and entirely suited for assessment of a building for construction defects and soundness of its systems. He ensured that I understood all of his findings and was very willing to go into more depth on an area of particular concern.
I have already provided evaluative comments directly to this company regarding presentation of findings in the current format,
which seems to me to be less clear than desired, in view of how quickly the seller's agent reads such inspection reports and then advises his client on the amount to allow for needed repairs. The inspector has no choice regarding the format. His in-person comments are clear about the relative significance of the findings. The point of the inspection, though, is to impress the seller with the need to pay for repairs to bring a structure to the point of being safe and sound. A format emphasizing major defects in a type of executive summary would be preferable.
I should also point out that my realtor phoned the inspector after the inspection and very quickly obtained further comments that were useful. This was very helpful in the overall process of getting the proposed property ready for completion of the sale.
