My own personal experience was them leaving one of their vans in my apartment parking lot, directly in front of my car, while they worked on a house up the hill. They had me blocked in, late for work, and none of my neighbors knew why the van was there. When a guy came walking down the hill asked him it that was him blocking me in, and he said "yeah" nothing else. I lost my temper and that point and did start cussing at the guy about me late, because I had no idea who he was, where he was, and he wasn't working at our building. When I called to complain, I was calmed down but a woman rudely asked me if I was an "oil and gas" worker. When I said no, I got upset and asked what that had to do with them "expletive" making me late for work. For some reason, she told me that she had lived in the area longer than me and told me to talk to my landlord, even though they were not even working at my building. Again, some friends in town said they have not had a problem with the work. Even though I should not have cussed at the guy, they were very rude to decide they could just me trap in my lot while they went and worked on someone else's property. Also, I don't know what they have against "oil and gas" workers, but if I did work in that field that would be no excuse for them to treat someone like that.

On the morning of the inspection, we received a call informing us that Mr. Wood was still at another inspection and would be slightly late. I appreciated the courtesy, but he ended up arriving at the initially appointed time. Mr. Wood the inspected the entire house from roof to basement. The inspection was approximately 4.5 hours. During the course of the inspection, Mr. Wood brought to my attention issues he thought needed to be addressed. Additionally, I would ask him questions about the house. Mr. Wood was always patient and willing to answer my questions. At the end of the inspection, he furnished us with a home owner's manual that had a plethora of information concerning all the inner workings of a home (pipes, plumbing, HVAC, roof, etc.) After a few days, we received in the mail a personalized report showing areas of concern and possible ways of addressing these problems. In closing, I cannot more highly recommend this service. It was wholly worth the money. Everyone I dealt with was a professional. If I have another property inspected, this is the service I will use.

Contacted provider about an estimate of his services. We agreed upon a time and date for an estimate. He arrived when he said he would; I cannot say the same about a different contracting company I had previously contacted. Initially, was inquiring about replacement of roof on sunroom roof. After further discussion, decided to replace the roof on the entire house. I was on the roof with Mr. Korsen and he explained the rationale behind the replacement of the roof. He made very good points and at no time did I feel like he was pressing me to make unnecessary expenditures.
After a few days, he returned with a contract explaining all the work to be performed. All of the expenses were clearly itemized. I would note that his quote was roughly $5,000 less than what I received from two contractors, one of which was of the "as-seen-on-television" kind. The materials were left on the property approximately one week before the work actually began the day after Thanksgiving.
The work was finished in a little over two weeks, due some inclement weather and running short on a few items. The roof looks excellent. A minor complaint would be that I am occasionally still finding small bits of flashing and other odd ends in the yard and around the property. Some of the days the weather was quite uncooperative and I can understand that things can be carried off by wind or other things unnoticed by the workmen; I'm sure other people would be more decided in their complaint of this.
I am quite happy with the experience and with the quality of the work performed. Most likely I will be contacting this company for more work in the future.

FAQs for property appraisal projects in Bethlehem, WV
An appraisal is an opinion of value, so anything that is expected to boost your home value is likely to work in your favor when it comes to the appraisal. Things like improving your curb appeal, painting, refinishing floors, and taking care of minor repairs are all good investments prior to ordering an appraisal. It’s also a good idea to clear out any clutter and complete a deep clean beforehand to show your property in the best light possible.
Appraisals aren’t required by law to complete a real estate transaction, but it’s unlikely that a lender will allow a buyer to close on a property without an appraisal, so, effectively, they are usually required. Your mortgage lender uses the property as collateral for your loan, and the appraisal is what the lender will base the mortgage on to confirm the value is there to justify their investment.
The average cost of a property appraisal is around $355, but different appraisers in your area could charge anywhere from $250 to $500. Appraisals for larger properties will often cost more, as will valuations for older properties. Appraisers will use homes in the surrounding area to help determine a valuation as well, so if your home doesn’t conform to the neighborhood standards, the valuation will require more work and will likely cost more.
A licensed appraiser is the only individual that can carry out a property appraisal. You should always check to ensure an appraiser you’re considering has the proper licensing from your state. Additionally, since an appraisal is meant to be an unbiased opinion of a property’s value, you should confirm that the appraiser doesn’t have ties to any other party in the sale of the property.
Anyone can hire a property appraiser to confirm the inherent value of a property, but the buyer or buyer’s lender will usually choose the appraiser and pay the individual for their opinion. It’s also not uncommon for the seller’s side in a real estate transaction to hire an appraiser in order to justify an asking price or negotiate a higher selling price.
