What Our Customers Are Saying
Jeff was very informative throughout the inspection and asked me if I had any questions. Knowing that Jeff built homes in prior years gave me some extra comfort while he was inspecting the residence. I asked him a question about knocking a wall down and he explained to me the smartest method of approach to accomplish the project, just awesome.
It was absolutely a pleasure to work with Jeff. He was extremely diligent in his work and really took the time to explain everything to me. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Great, professional job.
We absolutely love Jeff’s home inspections. Even though we had to see him twice due to a failed close, we enjoyed having his timely yet thorough explanations and detailed pictures of exactly what needs the home requires and even the minor fixes that are not a major issue but can also be improved. His years of experience as a builder shows through in every area! When ever we buy again, we are calling Jeff!
