From srart to finish, the inspection was extremely thorough, professional, and easy to understand. The inspection, Jerry, took time to explain every detail, answered all of my questions and provided a clear, well-organized report.

If you are purchasing a home in SCV area, you absolutely must use Top Dog Certified Home Inspections. Highly recommended!!! I definitely will order another inspection of my house a few month later, within the home warranty period of 1 year.

Though they were on a higher cost it pays off with the provided detailed report they send. We had a great experience with our home inspection. The inspector was professional, thorough, and took the time to explain the findings in a way that was easy to understand. The inspection report was detailed, well organized, and included clear photos and recommendations for each item. We felt much more informed about the condition of the home and appreciated the honest, unbiased assessment. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone buying a home.

General inspection, roof, pool, sewer, mold, etc. all done by the same company (and by 3 people at once so it didn't take forever and a day). Also, prior to the inspection, scheduling was very easy and customer service was great with them fitting me into a cancellation to get my inspection done sooner. We received our report later about 9 hours after our inspection was complete (and received our expedited mold report a day later), and the report is very thorough and easy to read. Once again, if you want the best inspectors and best customer service, this is who you want.

The first message is very welcoming and they already tell you what packages they have with the prices and even extra services like termites and general pool inspection. No need for back and forth messaging asking for prices or your number for them to call. I checked their reviews and that's it, I decided I want their services. I messaged back and her reply is almost immediate at a very strange time. I think I messaged her late at night. I just copied and pasted their message to my agent and there, appointment is set. We chose the platinum so the sewer inspection will be included and additional pool and termites. During the inspections, the 2 inspectors came on time. Home inspections took about 2 and a half hours which is really good coz it means they check every detail. They delivered the findings verbally and the written report was sent to my agent and me the next day. I don't even know how to share to you the result because there's a lot. Just trust Home Inspection experts. They got you covered. I recommend this company 100%.

But Randy didn't do that. Instead, he advised me to go straight to a contractor to address the issue, and mentioned that the inspection fee could be rolled into the repair cost. He also didn't pressure me by recommending any specific contractor. That level of honesty really stood out to me. I would 100% recommend Randy to my friends.

Most unprofessional experience I've ever had. Do not trust this guy with the most important and…read moreexpensive purchase of your life. He is not knowledgeable (made several errors), incredibly difficult to work with, and has the temperament of a petulant child. Edit: Some red flags for future readers - 1) this is the only home inspector of the five we reached out to who required full payment BEFORE the appointment. 2) he sent the original contract at midnight the night before he cancelled and cancelled it at 6:30pm, meaning he gave us less than 18 hours to read, sign and pay for a contract. 3) Since he cancelled on us last minute, I politely asked (pleaded, even) for him to reconsider - I said I would pay and sign then, but he denied us. This guy is probably sadistic or sociopathic at the least - it seemed he took pleasure in leaving us without help. 4) There are several typos in his reply above - keep in mind that this is who will be analyzing your home and writing your 100+ page inspection report. Do you want someone of this intelligence and education level spotting potentially deadly issues in your future home?

He's not just checking boxes -- he genuinely teaches you about the home and approaches the inspection as an educator, explaining things clearly and patiently as you go. I felt like I was going to school in the best way. His historical knowledge of homes by era was impressive. What really stood out was his attention to detail. He actually gave us more insight into our roof than our specialized roof inspector did, which says a lot. His reports were also delivered quickly and clearly, which was crucial for us since we were on a fast closing timeline. Jerry is also very friendly and easy to work with, which makes what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. His son, Kyle, handled the sewer inspection and was equally punctual, detailed, and professional. Together, they spent a significant amount of time going through everything thoroughly and never made us feel rushed. They even went above and beyond in small but meaningful ways -- during the patio inspection, Jerry noticed our screen door was a bit wobbly and fixed it on the spot. If you're looking for inspectors who are knowledgeable, meticulous, timely, and genuinely care about doing the job right, Brooks and Sons Inspections is an easy recommendation. We love Jerry!!

Jerry was punctual but he rushed through the inspection - 1-1/2 hours for a 3200 sq ft single family residence - and missed items that should have been called out. When I mentioned some of them, including whether he tested the airflow with a meter from the HVAC vents as there is only one HVAC unit and it's a 2 story home, he replied that when he tested the heat and air, it worked fine but he never tested the amount of airflow out of the vents. He also failed to check if glass french doors were tempered or if they had the proper glazing. Previous inspections I have had with licensed inspectors that were actually less expensive than him, have always covered these things. It was a very disappointing experience.

I am an engineer and I like to thoroughly research, even though I am not in construction trades. I got 4 quotes before proceeding with Adam. He stood out from day 1, making it clear what he was recommending and why. He didn't try to oversell, and he gave clear evidence backed rationale for everything. He was honest. He encouraged me to get other quotes so I do my due diligence. I checked and double checked what the other foundation contractors told me, and it became clear towards the end that Adam's advice had been fact based. Some of the other contractor's advice conflicted... do an underpin, don't do an underpin. An underpin can harm your foundation by adding stress as you don't have rebar, etc. At the end, having satisfied myself I went with Adam. His prices were not the lowest nor the highest, but fair.
