Jeremy was wonderful. He was patient with me and gave really good explanations to all of my questions. He didn't rush through the inspection, and did a thorough job. As a first-time homebuyer, I am really grateful for all of the input and tips on how to make the equipment last, and what sorts of things I should be on the lookout for.

As a first time home buyer, I was quite nervous for the home inspection and not sure of all the right questions to ask. I am so happy that I chose House Call for my home inspection. Jeff was extraordinarily kind and thorough. He answered all of my questions and made the process simple. My report was available the next day. I would recommend to any friend buying a home.

We discovered 3 days beforehand that our home builder deemed our new house "finished" 2 weeks before closing. House Call Home Inspection was the only inspection firm in the area that had any availability. I gave 2 stars because we were able to obtain an inspection on short notice, the office staff were friendly, the inspection was performed on the correct day, and an inspection report was provided in a timely manner. We were not able to attend the inspection due to work commitments. When we called to schedule an inspection, everyone seemed to be nonplussed that we wanted a new-build home to be inspected. That response should have been a red flag; new homes are just as likely as older homes to have actionable structural, functional, and quality issues. We thought the inspector's report was cursory at best, and it was clear, after we moved in, that he hadn't inspected many typical items. We have lived in our new home for a few months, and we have discovered multiple items that a general home inspection should have caught. This is not our first home buying experience, and our previous general home inspectors were far more thorough. The inspector never turned on our gas stove to confirm the gas hookup was working (it does not appear that anyone turned on our stove before we moved in). He did not notice that our dryer vent hookup in the laundry room was essentially a large hole with a pipe sticking out (we could not hook up the dryer until the builder came and fixed it after move-in), even though it was clearly visible, with no impediments, at the time of inspection. In fact, he included a picture of it in the report but didn't flag it as a problem. He failed to identify that the builder had installed a BATHROOM VENT WITH A SCREEN INSTEAD OF A DRYER VENT on the exterior of the house, but he did walk around the exterior and even took a picture of that area. He did not check all the light switches; the dining room light was very obviously hooked up incorrectly. He did not notice that a key part of our front door deadbolt lock was missing. He did not notice a major ventilation system issue, which was clearly visible, in the basement. None of the upstairs bathroom sinks will hold water due to missing drain parts and faulty installation, and he didn't seem to notice. He didn't notice that our pantry--which was empty at the time--had malfunctioning brackets and we couldn't use some of the shelves, although he did take a picture of the pantry. Yes, except for the dryer vent issue, most of these issues are minor, but we've never had an inspector miss so many items, including obvious items THAT WERE PHOTOGRAPHED.

Setting up the appointment was easy, and Marcia was helpful on the phone. We received a contract online stating the exact scope of the inspection, and we were able to pay online, too. They even have a discount for teachers. Then, we were sent an appointment reminder online, too. I felt "seen" as a customer the entire process.Jeremy is an incredibly kind, patient, and professional inspector. He answered any question I had within the confines of what he's allowed to do as an inspector. He also asked if I had questions when I didn't promptly ask something, opening the door for a conversation and helping me feel like we weren't rushing. I appreciated the personal touch he brought because my husband and I aren't from around here, so we can't ask family or friends for advice on home stuff.I also noted that he Jeremy was watching me for cues on what to do. I explained that I wanted to wear a mask because I know so many sick people right now, but that he didn't have to if he didn't want to. He did. And then he saw me take off my shoes, and he took of his. These little touches are important because I felt like he respected my (potentially) future home.

This place was recommended by our realtor. We closed on our house about two weeks ago. We had the inspection three weeks ago. A guy named Jeremy said everything in our home was spot less and there were only a few things that needed fixed. He said all the plugs in the home worked. Now that we’re all moved in we are finding out that half of the outlets in the home don’t work. I really wish they would have done a better job before we committed into the home. As new homeowners budget is tight and now we are stuck with a bill to fix all the necessary plugs.Exactly the report said that only two of the outlets weren’t working in the home. One in the kitchen and one in the master bedroom. We were ok with that. After we moved in we found out that ANOTHER plug in the kitchen didn’t work so now that was TWO plugs in the kitchen that didn’t work. We were told that all the plugs in the living room worked and they DONT out of 8 outlets only TWO work. Now we have six useless outlets in a living room. I have called you guys twice now and I was told that you the owner would be giving me a call back and I still haven’t heard from you.Two months later, four calls to this company and no call back. Every time I call they tell me that they’ll put on a brief hold or that the “owner” will call back. I’ve been put on hold for up to 20 minutes eventually I have to hang up. No call back from the owner. So disappointed.

Jeff was wonderful. He was on time and knows his stuff. One thing that stands out from our home inspection is how knowledgeable he is about his work. He walked us through the home and explained certain things in detail of what was good and what needs to be addressed. Even had advise about how to remedy certain things about the home. Highly recommend this service for anyone looking for a home inspection.

We are first time homebuyers and our House Call inspector went above and beyond for us! Due to COVID-19 regulations we could not be present. However, he talked us through every single page of the report. It was very reassuring to have someone like him helping us through these challenging times. I highly recommend!

I had Jeff come out and do an inspection on a home I am buying and he provided hands down the best experience I have had since starting the buying process in this crazy market. I felt like I was actually getting customer service and wasn't being churned through the system. He took the time walk me through everything and answer my questions. He was exceptionally polite and reassuring, I couldn't recommend him enough. As far as the scheduling and payment process, it was very easy and straight forward, exactly how it should have been. I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone in need of a home inspection.

Highly recommend House Call for home inspection and home health. Jeff was friendly and knowledgable about everything in the house. Every question we asked he had an answer for. We truly felt like he cared about our best interest but kept it real too. The rate was fair and they offer a discount if you bundle services.

We’re moving from out of state and were unable to be there for the inspection, so the included pictures and descriptions were very helpful. The report was very thorough and detailed, but took a few days longer than we expected to get it to us.

Jeff did a wonderful job. Obviously a result of so many years of experience. In addition, he would take time to explain in details all the technicals behind every evaluation good or bad.
