He arrived early, explained everything clearly, and his inspection report hit a lot of key points. He walked us through the house and showed us many of the concerns which was comforting. Thanks to his work, we felt completely confident moving forward with our offer.

A Thorough Inspection Experience!

Not my first rodeo, but perhaps the best experience. Rob explained everything in a way we could understand, making the process clear. Getting age estimates on the appliances and an idea on the typical life span was a nice touch.
