Listen to what the other reviews mention - Mark Thomas is the best and is well worth it…read more I recently purchases a duplex down in Bayview and he was recommended to me by my realtor, Norm Terapak (Terapak Realty), as being the best. After calling up and speaking with his assistant about his rates and time, I noticed that it was a little more expensive than other home inspectors. She did mention that it is since he is the best, has the best reports, gets on the roof, and takes his time going through. I took Norm and her word for it and had Mark take a look at the property. His assistant called to let me know that he was running late due to traffic yet he still showed up on time, which is always a plus. We spent more than 4 hours looking through EVERYTHING, and I mean he looked at and tested everything. I have been told that most inspectors don't go up on roofs anymore yet Mark got up on the roof, snapped pictures, and was checking it out for 15 minutes. Mark uses a digital camera to take dozens of pictures and has a laptop on site that he uploads them to right away. He puts together his digital report as he goes. In all he provided a digital PDF copy of the report that was 37 pages long with so much detail. Not only did it include a few pictures on each page, descriptions, but also diagrams of how to correct it or what it should look like. Mark also knew I was a first time duplex buyer and would educate me along the way, show me various items, and explain things in detail so I would understand and know for the future. He was very educational and helpful. He may be a little more expensive than others yet what he found I was able to get some serious money knocked off the price so it was money very well spent. Highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.

Another happy camper with Mark Thomas's work. He came highly recommended and scheduling with his…read moreassistant, Nicole, was as fast and as easy as could be. All of the other reviewers are right, he is incredibly thorough, describes things in a way anyone could understand and goes over the report with you on-site. He says some inspection places don't do the report on-site and I think that would be really inconvenient. As we were talking he mentioned some things that I then asked him to include in the report and he was happy to do so. What a drag it would have been to go over it all myself and ask for changes later. You can't go wrong here if you need the best.

The mere concept of a home inspection was very overwhelming as we just don't know very much about homes or the process. My grandparents, who have done a lot of DIY in their homes and were landlords for a time, came with to offer insight and make sure we knew what was going on. Jay explained everything at a level that I was able to understand, and then walked through what the fix would look like in regards to how severe it really was. He would show us pictures and demonstrate what was wrong each time and really gave us clear and open communication throughout. My grandparents (who have bought and sold 20+ properties in their day) were also very impressed with how he explained everything and how thorough both he and his report were. They were there to make sure we were understanding everything appropriately, but honestly we would have been fine even without. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a home inspector that will really make sure you understand what you're purchasing!

I like to think of myself as being reasonably handy, and he was a great sounding board for developing methods to fix the issues he did find. The actual inspection was a breeze. Dave took somewhere around three or four hours to go through the entire house, including the garage and the exterior. Every now and then he would touch base and bring issues to our attention. While going over the inspection report, he made sure to bring special attentions to areas where deficiencies were seen. He was extremely knowledgeable and ready to answer any question I could throw at him. I would recommend Helling in a heartbeat to anyone who needs home inspection services.

Obviously that can be kind of an intense/nerve wracking experience, and when you are going into this semi-blind, you need to have confidence in your home inspection. Enter Jason & Park Hill Home Inspection. Jason was recommended to us by our realtor, and I couldn't be more happy. From the beginning Jason was very responsive and able to inspect the property on short notice. He spent time with me on the phone, explaining how the process would work and let me know about some optional services, including radon testing. Coming from CA, we don't have basements/radon, so Jason thoroughly explained what the testing, how much it cost, and then very honestly explained at-home alternatives would could perform ourselves if we wanted to save money. (!) The day of the inspection, everything went great. Jason was on-time and through, and walked my mother through all of the steps they took to inspect the home. The inspection report was extremely through, yet easy to understand for a non-professional, with photos documenting everything that was found. Our comprehensive home inspection allowed us to negotiate a fair closing credit with the sellers. I highly recommend Jason and Park Hill Home Inspection.

Jeff saved us thousands!…read more We are in the process of buying a condo in the Menomonee Falls area. At first I was a little reluctant to spend the extra money on a home inspection, as the condo association was responsible for most of the major upkeep, but after talking with our realtor and my fiancé, I'm sure glad that we did. We went with Cream City at the recommendation of a friend, and I really liked his background on the more commercial side in buildings and maintenance. It made me feel like we was looking for other things that home inspectors might not have a feel for. The process was easy. Jeff was incredibly responsive and very easy to schedule with. The day of the home inspection he arrived early, had more tools and equipment than I was anticipating, and I don't think he left one area of the place untouched. Most important he did a socially distance appropriate walk through with me on his findings and set up a follow-up call with myself and my fiancé the next day who was not able to make it on the day of our inspection. The inspection reporting was a great tool. I've added an extremely brief screen shot of the review that went through each area of the home. It had photos of all areas and identified any area of concern and ranked them according to their urgency. After reviewing we were able to get a credit on our purchase price, with the areas identified. All in all I was not only impressed with the level of care, time given, and thoughtfulness, but I was especially impressed with the level of customer service. My fiancé, who is hard to impress, felt like exactly the same even though he wasn't a part of the whole process. 10/10 would recommend and use again.
