Paden at Hindsight Environmental was very quick to respond and come out to my house for an initial review. Unfortunately for us, the remediation team did not do a great job in prepping the site for testing so Paden provided a detailed list of what still needed to be done so that we could get the clearance with no issues (and did not charge us for this trip). He waited for us to get all of the remediation completed (which took us longer than we would have liked) and then quickly came back for testing and same day sign-off that we passed. Also, the pricing was lower than others that had reached back out to me. I would highly recommend Hindsight for providing this service.

We bought our home and within two months had to replace the roof. The cost: $132,000.

How could an "certified roof expert " miss these important conditions? Mike Hasty is a very bad home inspector.

All I can say is WOW. After doing my own mold test and getting results positive for mold, I reached…read moreout to Shane at S&J. He came to my house the next day, was extremely professional and explored my house to find a source. He read the results from my test and reassured me that these types of tests are not the most accurate way to assess mold. He used multiple different tools and reassured me of negative results that we found! I have had experiences with other companies who come in, take advantage of your vulnerability and emotions and complete try to scam you. Shane couldn't be further from that. He was honest, explained everything and was extremely knowledgeable. If you ever have to deal with mold or asbestos, S&J is the company to use!

I recently found some black mold in my garage and needed it taken care of. Found out I needed to…read morehave some testing done to the drywall and joint compound first to make sure there wasn't any lead or asbestos. Was recommended S&J by one of the mold remediation companies, and through text they were able to schedule me in relatively quickly. Guy came in, was fast and friendly, did his thing. He noticed there was vinyl tile on the floor of the area I needed mold treatment so he asked to take a piece to test. I said sure. Results came back quick, and so did the invoice. They tried to upcharge me an extra $405. I replied to them saying that wasn't the agreed upon price. They "fixed" the error and knocked off $100 from the already inflated price, apologizing that they got some detail wrong in the invoice. I had to reply again, challenging that detail and the extra money they were asking for. It was only then that someone in charge finally got involved, explained they'd had me confused with another client, and backed down to the original quoted price-- but tacked on an extra $40 for the floor tile! I paid the invoice because this was 4 days later, but told them they need to disclose when something is going to cost extra. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. While I can accept an honest mistake, I was left feeling like they were trying to take advantage of me, hoping I'd just pay whatever they asked. Whatever the truth is, S&J Environmental Testing leaves a lot to be desired in regard to their customer service.

I had an outstanding experience with my home inspection and can't recommend Blake highly enough…read more From start to finish, Blake was incredibly professional, thorough, and detail-oriented. He arrived right on time and walked me through every part of the inspection process, explaining things in a way that was easy to understand, even for someone without a construction background. What really stood out was how meticulous he was. Nothing was rushed, and no detail was overlooked. The report I received afterward was clear, well-organized, and included photos and actionable recommendations, which gave me a lot of confidence moving forward with my purchase. Blake also took the time to answer all of my follow-up questions without making me feel rushed. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, honest, and truly cares about helping you make an informed decision, Blake is the inspector you want. I would absolutely use his services again and recommend him to anyone buying a home.

We hired this inspector to perform a professional home inspection on a large residential property…read moreand relied on that inspection in making a significant purchase decision. Unfortunately, the inspection fell materially below what is expected under generally accepted industry standards, including those set forth by CREIA (California Real Estate Inspection Association). After taking possession of the home, we discovered multiple serious issues that were visible and accessible at the time of inspection but were not identified or reported. These included: * Major defects in the exterior deck system over an indoor pool, including improper slope, defective drainage, and failed waterproofing, which resulted in active water intrusion * Safety hazards such as inadequate or missing railings in areas where fall protection is expected * Improper routing of electrical wiring and irrigation lines through deck drainage systems * A garage door component that was broken despite being reported as operable * A bathroom where a shower handle was missing, raising questions about whether plumbing fixtures were tested at all * A carbon monoxide detector without batteries, despite safety devices being noted as present * A non-functional dehumidifier and visibly damaged control panels in the indoor pool room, including one panel hanging out of the wall Additionally, there was an active leak in the living room that was visible during the inspection, which we had to point out ourselves in order for it to be included in the report. This raised early concerns about the thoroughness of the inspection. These are not concealed or latent defects. These are observable conditions that fall squarely within the scope of a standard visual inspection of accessible areas. CREIA Standards of Practice require inspectors to report on observable deficiencies in systems and components, including roofing, exterior elements, decks, safety features, and built-in appliances, as well as to identify conditions that may indicate water intrusion or warrant further evaluation. The conditions listed above were plainly visible and should have been identified or at minimum flagged for further inspection. Equally concerning is the apparent lack of diligence. The inspection was completed in approximately 3 hours despite the size and complexity of the property, which includes multiple levels, extensive exterior decking, skylights, drainage systems, and an indoor pool environment. This raises serious concerns about whether the inspection met even a basic standard of care. When we raised these issues in writing and requested a response, the inspector refused to engage in any meaningful way. His responses were dismissive and unprofessional, and he declined to address the substance of the concerns raised. Instead, he offered a refund only if we agreed to sign a broad release of liability. Conditioning even a partial refund on a full release while declining to address the substance of the concerns is not consistent with professional accountability. As a result of these omissions, we have incurred substantial and ongoing costs to investigate, design, permit, and repair conditions that appear to have existed prior to our purchase and should have been identified during the inspection. This experience has been extremely disappointing. We relied on this inspection in good faith, and the level of diligence, documentation, and follow-through did not meet reasonable expectations for a professional inspection service. Based on our experience, we strongly caution others to carefully evaluate whether this inspector's practices align with recognized industry standards before relying on their work.

I initially picked Bruce because of the type of inspection report he offers…read more It summarizes the condition of the property, highlights in red the major issues and lastly recommends needed updates. Plus he inspects pools thus eliminating the need for a second inspector.. As others have mentioned he is generous with his time, providing service above and beyond what a typical home inspection calls for. It was a big house .... In all he was at the property for 5hrs! During his inspection he took the time to answer all my questions and document any issues he found. It was great that he had a Drone to survey our two story clay tile roof which would have been difficult to inspect any other way. He also was kind enough to take it up a second time to get pictures of the hillside adjacent to our house. That was above and beyond what most general inspections would involve. Lastly he provided high res pictures taken for the report to my Drop Box. I would highly recommend Bruce for all of the above reasons plus he is just a nice guy.

As others have commented, Bruce @ Sunset Home Inspection is a fantastic home inspector and I have…read morerecommended him to others and also have personally used him countless times over the years for many property inspections. Bruce is very thorough, extremely knowledgeable, and best of all he is willing to take the time to review and explain any of his findings to clients, so that they have a clear understanding of what they are purchasing/selling. Bruce is reasonably priced...he may not be the cheapest (but why would you want to cheap out on a home inspection when you're making one of the biggest purchase of your life), however, he is definitely not the most expensive. He also provides a very quick turn-around in getting his reports out.

I can't recommend Steve highly enough.

Before we even scheduled the inspection, he spent over an hour on the phone answering all of my questions and explaining the testing process in a way that was incredibly thorough and easy to understand. He didn't just collect samples - he took the time to educate us on how to safely manage asbestos and lead during our renovation and what to keep in mind long after we move in. I also felt like he went above and beyond to be careful not to oversample - which I really appreciated as we navigate a budget for all these home repairs. He focused on highest-value spots (with the lowest visibility, visually!) As first-time homeowners navigating construction (and expecting our first baby), we found having someone so knowledgeable, patient, and generous with his time invaluable. It's rare to find someone with this level of expertise who genuinely cares about helping their clients make informed decisions. If we ever need environmental testing again, Steve will be my first call.
