Before buying our house, we had it inspected by 1 True North Home Inspections. He didn't examine the bathtub or its spigot and water flow for leaks or any other problems. After the very first use of that tub, we discovered that the water was rapidly leaking through the floor and onto the kitchen below. We discovered that the tub had a serious leak. After that, we had repair people come to take a look, and they said that apparently work had been done around the drain of the bathtub in an apparent clumsy effort to fix this problem. They also said they noticed signs of previous leakage in the kitchen ceiling under the tub. All this should have been noticed in the inspection. We hired a contractor to remove and replace the tub. When the old tub was removed, we saw it had terrible rust and a sizable hole, which was the source of the leaking. It cost us about $3500 to fix all that -- and we were quoted far higher by others. 1 True North's incomplete and inefficient inspection was deficient and could have saved us time, trouble and money if he had noticed this situation.

Tim was lightning quick in responding to questions, thorough and professional. He was at the inspection site 30 minutes early and had started inspecting the roof. His quote was also very competitive. We had the inspection report a couple of hours after the inspection. Could not have asked for more. Definitely a 5 on 5.

Tim went above and beyond to ensure we were happy. The items Tim found would have caused problems in coming years. Was not sure home inspection was needed on new construction, but very happy we did it for both pre drywall and final walkthrough. Well worth the money spent

Tim is the best home inspector you will find in the northern Virginia area. He is thorough with every step of the process and delivers his report the same day. If you want the BEST value money can buy for home inspection services - you will want this professional.

Tim came highly recommend by our future neighbors. We were in a pinch due to our builder's schedule. Tim worked with us and the builder's schedule to get our pre-drywall inspection completed. He provided a thorough report and valuable in-person information about our new home. Everything about Tim and how he runs his business speaks to his professionalism. We will highly recommend him to others and will call him back for our pre-closing inspection in a couple of months. Thanks, Tim!

So the first home builder did his job and did just that. Yet Tim from 1 True North Home Inspection did more than just doing his job. He explain things to get me to understand why things are and why things work the way they do. Tim spent Three hours at my house yet charged the same price as other home inspectors rate. Tim is a guy to hire and I would have gave him a 10 if the scale would allow it. Thank you Tim for your hard work. You are the best.

I flew in for the inspection and had a tight schedule to work with. Tim made it happen for us. He was ready to go and started early while we were waiting for home access. His attention to detail was phenomenal! The findings were documented (text and photo) clearly and concisely in the final report. Couldn't be happier!!! Highly recommend if you're looking for a great service at a competitive and reasonable price. Thank you Tim!!!

Tim completed a thorough home inspection and took the time to explain the problems and possible fixes. I used Tim identify possible problems before I sell my home. I will use Tim when I purchase my new home. The report include detailed findings and photos.
