After closing on the house in January and moving in last month, we've come to find many items that he missed on his inspection. The downstairs toilet was loose and not level, leading to wax ring failure which I had to fix. The refrigerator was full of mold(he checked all appliances) which I had to get replaced. He missed the burned outlet behind the fridge. He went up into the attic but missed leaks in the roof which were found by a reputable roofing company during their estimate. I'm disappointed in how much was missed considering how highly rated this company is.

It was reasonable and honestly other mainstream companies would've charged more for poor quality work so I'm glad I went with encompass. My main concern was sweating vents in loft that was flipped from an attic, and Jayson did infrared imaging and saw that there was less insulation around it, which was having the heat hit all the cold air coming out causing sweating . Encompass provided me an online binder to see all of the notes. Once again, this was a great price with great quality and the electronic binder.

We loved the first home we were shown and had Ben come to inspect. It was a much older house so we expected some things to be wrong, but, that was definitely an understatement. Ben was very thorough with the home inspection and walked us through the process step by step to make sure we understood everything he was seeing. He showed us all kinds of things that we would have never been able to see on our own that could have been damaging to our health and the value of the house. We soon found out that that house was not for us with his assistance. His report was just as informative and helpful with even more detail that we could have imagined. He saved us from buying a massive money pit! We soon found another house and of course had Ben come to inspect this one as well. With another thorough walkthrough and him explaining everything he saw in this new house we found our new home. We have been here a few months and just like I wanted, no surprises! Thank you Ben for your assistance and being so informative. We are happy in our new home and couldn't have done it without you. I highly recommend using Bells Mill Home Inspection Services for a great home inspection!

Ben came out to do a home inspection for us when we just purchased our first home in Norfolk, VA…read more We could not be more satisfied - he was excellent and made the process very easy for us! First he made the scheduling easy. Both my wife and I work, and Ben was great about working around our schedules. His work ethic at the house was terrific - no stone went unturned, and we felt he was incredibly thorough (we saw him drenched in sweat after combing through the attic, in August). The best part, though, was Ben's "presentation" of his work. He took us around all 3 floors, inside and outside, to personally show us what he had found and explained (in detail) how everything worked. Also, this was a FSBO and the seller also happened to be there during the inspection. While other inspectors may have ignored or been uneasy around the seller, Ben (after running it by us first) ALSO showed the seller the issues he discovered, in a nice and explanatory way that really eased what could have been a tense afternoon. After all this, he worked up a great report for us with tons of pictures, that detailed each issue and was even ranked in order of severity (so we knew what to ask for on the PICRA, and what could wait). In our case, Ben noticed an issue with the way that the fireplace/chimney was set up, that he felt needed to be inspected by a chimney professional (ask for a "Level 2" inspection, he told us). The following day, he called to ask if we had any questions, and also re-emphasized the importance of having the chimney inspected. As we were already blown away with his work, we took Ben's advice and paid for the setup of the chimney to be inspected. Of course Ben's hunch was right on the money, and it ended up saving us about $3,000 in seller concessions for the repair. We'd give him 6 stars if we could!
