Paying over $700 for an inspector who clearly didn't know how to do his job, and of course, his…read morereport was useless. I ended up hiring another inspector for $499 who did a much better job. The first guy actually said, "Your property is quite new, so there aren't many issues." Seriously? This inspector is a complete joke. I'll share some pages from his report and let you decide for yourself. He spent more time selling his services and included 9 pages of "STANDARDS OF PRACTICE," but barely wrote anything useful in the actual report. What a waste!

We plan to bring Greg back to inspect the home just before the one year warranty expires. You just can't afford to take any chances with any house.

The inspection is arguably the most crucial step in determining whether you should purchase a home,…read moreand Christine Shack is hands down the only inspector I am willing to trust with that task. She has extreme attention to detail and will identify even the smallest issue. And trust me, if you're paying hundreds of thousands of dollars for something, you want to be aware of every single issue there is going into the transaction. Christine is incredibly knowledgeable and will give you a very thorough walk through of the property right after the inspection. She's very good at helping to explain the issue in layman terms and will also help you assess whether a problem is negligible or relatively easy to fix vs. potentially very serious. Her reports contain detailed pictures and notes and will recommend any further actions needed, including which professionals you need to contact asap during the critical option period. I can't recommend her enough and am extremely thankful to have the opportunity to work with her!

She even reinspected & updated her report after I had things fixed. Her direction gave me confidence when listing & talking points for buyer's inspector. I hired Kristi one year later to inspect my prospective home--she provided the same level of intense detail with notes for level of urgency (now or later) and showed me what I can do myself. Not sure if all inspectors give this kind of personal service, but Kristi gave me confidence that my new home is sound.

They were not extravagant, uncalibrated, or pushy. She was clear and thorough with her description and report. She highlighted hazards as well as cosmetics details. The report she filed had helpful details, along with pictures, heat maps showing insulation problems, and a mention of which trades to contact for updates and repairs. She was friendly and affordable. Kristi was even willing to go back and take a second look at the house on another day. Alas, we backed out of the house contract but we never would have made the decision without Kristi's very detailed look at the house. She saved us from a money pit!!

Above and Beyond: Trustworthy, Professional, and Stress-Free Service!…read more As a single elderly woman, when things go wrong in your home--especially electrical problems--it is really stressful. You immediately worry about who you can call and, more importantly, who you can truly trust with your home and safety. I called 5th Generation Electric in Dallas, and from the very first minute, they were genuinely friendly and professional. They were exactly on time, which is so rare these days, and they instantly put me at ease. The technician was extremely knowledgeable and quickly diagnosed the issue. What impressed me the most was that they did a good job quickly while still taking the time to explain everything in plain language so it was easy for me to follow and understand exactly what work was being done. There was no confusing jargon. This company is truly trustworthy. I felt completely comfortable leaving my home and safety in their hands. The work was done efficiently, the final result was excellent, and the service was reasonably priced. I was very pleased with their work and highly recommend 5th Generation Electric to anyone in the Dallas area looking for an electrical contractor. They deliver professional quality service with a wonderful, reassuring approach, and a friendliness beyond reproach.

He went above and beyond and tested out the solution at his home and tried out multiple options before coming back to our home with some options. He also warrantied the work and spent many extra hours making sure everything was just right and that we were happy. He worked weekends and evenings since our job ended up taking longer than expected and kept true to his original quote. I highly recommend Eddies company and hopefully you are able to book him because he is super busy!

After this incident I went to check my AC unit drain lines and it seems like I have the same scenario, the left pipe was installed at an incline lacking the slope needed to drain.

We purchased a new build from DRHorton here in FtWorth and I had Aaron do a mid-build inspection and final inspection. The last report I received was 88 pages!

My realtor was very impressed and has even started using Mr Miller as a reference for his other clients.
