I highly recommend Michael and his team. Our realtor had a list of inspectors but I decided to branch out and find my own. Michael is extremely customer oriented and I really sensed that he had our best interests at heart. He was knowledgeable in all aspects of the inspection process from the exterior to the plumbing, electrical and roof. His AC company was also very courteous. And he also brings a termite inspector which was not included with most other inspectors. I would definitely recommend his services to family and friends in a haertbeat!

As a nervous first time home buyer I wanted an independent and complete inspection. Michael was incredibly thorough and he took the time to teach me how everything worked in my new place. He put the issues into perspective that turned up and I knew what needed to be fixed right away versus what I could attend to down the road. His price was very reasonable considering all the extra services he brings. I couldn't be any happier with my decision. Thanks Michael!

I'm glad I was able to put your mind at ease. Buying a home CAN be scary but once you know where everything is and the condition of the house, it gets easier. I hope you enjoy your Sarasota house for many years to come! Call me if you need anything else.

Michael came out to do a home inspection and a 4 point inspection (for insurance). He was thorough, informative and detail-orientated. His reports were full of pictures, detailed descriptions and easy to read. I greatly appreciate that he has a whole team that will come out to inspect - HVAC, roofer, WDO inspector, etc. He has followed up with him on a few occasions to see if he could be of further assistance. He has been a pleasure to work with and would highly recommend him! He services are outstanding and his prices are super affordable.

FAQs

  • What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

    While the cost of a home inspection varies from company to company, so does the quality. A lone inspector will surely struggle to provide a detailed review of your entire home. Imagine being tasked to accurately review each of the items in the list above, in the course of 2-3 hours (length of an average inspection). This is why we bring a team. Once your future home has been inspected by a home inspector, termite inspector, HVAC inspector, roofer and pool inspector, you will rest assured knowing your house has been professionally reviewed. Home inspections do have limits – inspectors cannot see through walls or estimate future occurrences. We strive to provide a detailed overview of the current condition of the property so that you can make an informed decision.
