Will definitely contact them for any future issues.

On the day they arrived early (after calling to confirm it was OK). They got right to it, and had to drain the remainder of the oil, before cutting the tank into pieces. They were very professional, cemented over the wall where the pipes had been, removed the exterior pipes and cemented those. And laid down some odor-absorbing stuff to help with the smell. I'd recommend these for oil tank removal. (And by the way, my wife used them for her father's exterior oil tank decommission 2 years ago and it also went really well.)

What a nightmare. In buying a home, the inspection revealed high radon levels. A radon mitigation…read moresystem was written into the offer, with the seller covering the cost. I don't know who recommended Alpha, but I sure wish that they hadn't. The installer came out, saying there was only one place the system could go, which was outside a bedroom. He installed without hooking up the electrical, which has said he wasn't qualified to do. That meant that we had to engage an electrician, the charge falling to us, something that the sales offer didn't cover, an unexpected extra expense. When the system was switched on, the noise was excessive. Not just noise, but the vibration in the house. It was kind of like trying to sleep in the same room with a really bad 1970s refrigerator about to die. The only person from Alpha who came back to check on the system was the radon level test person, who said that he knew nothing about dealing with noise issue. I spoke with Arial on the phone, whose only response was: the fan is the quietest in the industry and, the system was installed in the only place possible on the house. When I expressed my dissatisfaction, he said he would look into it and call back. He never did. Doing my own online exploration, I found that possibilities include a defective fan motor, changing where the system was strapped to the house, adding padding between the strapping and the house, and/or adding sound dampening inside the system. None of these options were even suggested by Alpha. Service after the sale from Alpha was abysmal. I feel like they took the money and ran.

My wife and I are first-time home buyers-- an objectively stressful experience. We found what…read moreamounts to our dream home, got our offer accepted, and our realtor recommended Tabor NW (specifically Zach) to perform the inspection on the home. We weren't too worried as, through the showings, the home seemed to be very well maintained. Zach stopped by the home to perform the inspection and confirmed that the home was in great condition, but as with all homes, there were maintenance, repair, and installation recommendations. Going through the home buying process, we had more than our fair share of questions and clarifications, but Zach blew us away. The evening following the inspections, Zach sent us a thorough and detailed narrative of his findings. We expected to read over it, have no clue what half of it meant, and then have to have the inspector and our realtor disseminate all of it. We were ab-so-lutely wrong. Zach not only gave us recommendations on what we should have repaired, maintained, or installed, but he laid out where any issues were individually located (with photos and diagrams), whether or not repairs and maintenance should be done personally or by a professional, and best of all, it was all presented in simple, easy to understand terminology. We had no questions, no stresses, and full peace-of-mind following Zach's inspection. It is entirely clear why Tabor NW was recommended to perform our home inspection. Thank you, Zach!

Cascade Radon came out to our house and it was exactly what I needed. We walked and talked about the process together. That enabled me to formulate the appropriate questions and have them answered in real time and with context. Honestly, I was blown away by the entire staff. They were all super knowledgeable, professional, organized and polite. They made the whole process a very positive experience. I'm really happy with their work, communication, price and warranty. Our Radon pCi/L levels had been above 15 pCi/L in one room. Now it's below 1 pCi/L. Barb at Cascade Radon is absolutely the best. She even scheduled the county inspection for us. I highly recommend Cascade Radon. -Rachel K.

This was the 2nd time Integrity was out to our home and I'm glad they were gracious enough to return. We had an issue that was caused by the builder itself not having the home ready in time for the original inspection date which was pretty disappointing and caused about a 5 day delay. I heard that some builders are like this and so this was the case for us. What I enjoyed about Kerry was that he was very transparent and thorough in his inspection process and did his work while we did out walkthrough around the house. After our walkthrough with the home demonstrator was completed, Kerry shared a little information on his findings which would later be provided in his final report the next day. I like how Integrity Home Inspections provide you with photos showing areas of concern and provide that same information is provided back to the builder as well. Their format and photos were easy to follow and read through. Kerry checked the entire interior, attic, the foundation well as the exterior around the perimeter of our home. It was a pleasure having Kerry out there during our walkthrough and I'm glad he was able to check things that most buyers such as ourselves are pretty much oblivious to. A radon test was also performed and radon test box was left at our home for a few days. Luckily the test results are within standards and posed no health risks. I'm so happy that Integrity Home Inspections was a part of our new home experience and I encourage other potential buyers to seek our their services.
