We are very dissatisfied with Clifton's service. We hired him specifically for a…read morefoundation/deflection evaluation and clearly stated upfront that our goal was to obtain a report that could be compared apple-to-apple with the builder's calculations so the builder could be held responsible. We provided all county-filed documents in advance for this purpose. Despite this, the final report was not PE-stamped and used a different methodology than the builder's standards, making a valid comparison impossible and the report unusable. The builder would not accept it. Multiple follow-ups requesting clarification went unanswered or resulted in brief, unclear responses that did not address our concerns. Instead of addressing our stated goal, the inspector focused on upselling contractors listed on his website and encouraging us to contact them for repairs--something we explicitly stated we did not want. Overall, the service failed to meet expectations and did not deliver what was agreed upon.

Brad Gamlin, the owner of Advanced Home Inspection, should be named Brad Gamblin', because that's…read morewhat you do when you hire him. Roll the dice. They probably do fine work most of the time, but if they miss something, you're out of luck. I wouldn't want to take that chance on such a large investment, but at the time I didn't know we couldn't trust the very people we hired to help us feel secure. We had a rotted beam (the main support beam in the crawlspace, not some beam hidden in a wall) and a poorly installed vapor barrier that, upon re-inspection, Advanced Home Inspection claimed were both addressed properly. Had they done the due diligence we paid them for, they might have found that neither of the items were done correctly (an exterminator pointed it out!). Then we could have either chosen not to purchase the house or gone back to the owners to fix the issues. But now we're stuck needing to invest an extra $30,000 in the house that we hadn't expected. When we approached Mr. Gamlin, about the oversight, he spent a good deal of time talking about how we can't sue him, and if we could, we could only get their fee we paid back. We hadn't even brought up the option of suing him, but he seemed fixated on it. He admitted that they made a mistake, but that they weren't going to cover any of the expenses. We hadn't expected all of the cost, but something to show some accountability. He directed us to their warranty company that required information to which we didn't have access. We went back to him for assistance with the warranty company, and he refused to offer any additional help. The only compensation he offered was a dehumidifier, for which we were grateful. We expected the kind of dehumidifier that is meant for crawlspaces. What we got was a cheap small room dehumidifier that would likely burn the house down if we put it underneath where he intended it to go. This leads me to believe that either he knew the dehumidifier was inadequate at best and potentially dangerous, and he didn't care, or he just does things without understanding the consequences and figures if there is a problem, he can just shrug and walk away. Our experience shows that Brad Gamlin has no integrity and possibly very little common sense and should not be trusted to inspect homes.

We figured out that our county's website has a record of all of the permitted work done in the county in the last 3.5 months, and you can sort by project. It also lists the sq footage of the project and the cost. We could see that Kefficient had done the most permitted projects in our county and they had a fair and competitive price compared to other companies who got their work permitted. We ended up deciding to work with Kefficient. What a world of difference! They quickly got a permit and did the work and had it inspected and it looks great. What a relief after such a poor experience with a different company!
