This service turned out ok. Nothing stood out about this service. He missed some spots in the house that he could have paid a little bit more attention to detail. They did a decent job but not in all areas. They are a good company.

It went really well. Erin showed up early and jumped right in. He covered every aspect of our new home, caught tons of issues, and was very thorough and reassuring. We felt like we were in good hands and he was very clear about what he was seeing at every step of the way. This really helped us out because we felt like he gave us the information we needed to make good decisions about our counter offer.

Terrific !!! As a Realtor I have been referring Stephan Cancler of Full House Home Inspections  to my
clients for the past ten years, He is prompt, courtliest, thorough and professional. I have seen many other inspectors used by other realtors on sales of on  listings who are arrogant, alarmists, disrespectful, ill prepared and some just downright incompetent. It is my company's policy for me to give three names of  home inspectors whenever  I make a sale. Stephan will always be at the top of my list.

Overall he was very easy to work with but he missed items that cost us money that the seller should have paid for or lowered the sale price. The family room had sunk down 2 1/2" in the center costing us almost $2,000 to repair. Did not identify the jacuzzi tub had no access to plumbing which is required. A triple pane window that has a bad seal & a tub that barely drained.
Response from FULL HOUSE Inspection Services
"I did identify the jacuzzi tub that had no access to plumbing. This was clearly stated in the report. I attempted to contact the customer several times and did not receive a response."

Stephan and Aaron were thorough, professional and clearly enjoy what they do.  Their finished report is easy to read, understand and share.  Highly recommended...

It worked out fine. There were some things he did not find, but they were fairly minor when you add up the cost to replace them. He took his time with the inspection and was very thorough. However, this was not the best inspection that I had.
Response from FULL HOUSE Inspection Services
"I attempted to contact this client for more information regarding her concerns about this not being a totally satisfactory inspection and received no response. We did find some issues, that were reported, which saved them thousands of dollars. The client also sent a review to our website stating.."Working with Stephen Cancler was a pleasure. He talked periodically with us at different stages of the inspection when he found an area of concern or what could be a potential problem if not addressed in the future. Stephen is professional, detailed and is knowledgeable about current codes and regulations.." The customer then rated our services all 5's on a 1-5 scale. (including a yes for hiring again). We are perplexed by her recent comments."

It went very well.  The inspector was very professional and gave us good information for us to consider as we move forward with our remodeling projects.
We received his written report within a couple of days of the inspection.
