We've used their team for multiple inspections of both new construction and remodels…read more This week, we had Dylan and Lee each complete an inspection on separate properties. Each inspector has been thorough and detailed in their reporting, thoughtful in letting us know big and little things they notice around the property, and are exceptionally speedy with getting the report written and shared. For those who want detail, these reports are often 40+ pages with pictures and descriptions. I've felt confident in the home buying and selling process based on these inspections. We will certainly continue using this company due to their reliability, detail, and professionalism.

We're a couple novices when it comes to owning a home, so having someone with Lee's patience was such a blessing when it came time to go over the inspection report. The report was extremely detailed, but Lee was sure to highlight the most important parts when it came to safety and longevity. You absolutely have to give these people your business if you're looking to support a non-profit and get a great inspection.

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!

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.)

He is incredibly thorough and goes above and beyond to explain not just what he's doing, but why he's doing it. He answered every question in such wonderful detail. I was beyond impressed! His attention to detail and commitment to transparency gave me a solid level of confidence. I feel very lucky to have found him and will absolutely use him again. I would strongly recommend him to any homeowner who wants a comprehensive and trustworthy evaluation of their home. Thank you so much Craig!

I cannot recommend Mold Inspection Sciences highly enough, and specifically Craig, who was…read moreabsolutely amazing. During an incredibly stressful time, Craig took the time to explain every single step of the inspection process and answered all of our questions with immense patience and genuine compassion. Having someone navigate our situation with that level of empathy brought us so much comfort when we needed it most. The professionalism across the entire company was top-tier. From the very first phone call booking our appointment to the follow-up call reviewing our lab test details in depth, every person we spoke with was respectful, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. It's one of those services you hope you never have to use again, but if we ever needed mold inspection services in the future, I would hire them again without hesitation. Worth every single penny!

We were in the process of buying a home in the PDX area and our realtor recommended this company…read morefor our pre-closing inspection. Andy was very thorough; spent at least 5 hours inspecting and then doing a wrap up with us (we were at the property while the inspection was being conducted). I believe the price was $850 or so but totally needed it as we would also get a VA appraisal done so it helped catch anything they might have stopped the loan process over. There were quite a few items that were considered "safety issues" and that we needed to pay particular attention to. We need to set up the re-inspection, but the seller made scheduling difficult, and with us currently residing in Bend, we couldn't just come up on a whim that didn't pan out. So Andy's company was very awesome in working through a few schedule changes for the re-inspection - really above and beyond what I myself would expect from ANY service provider. I believe the re-inspection was about $150. I totally recommend this company for their flexibility in scheduling, and also for the VERY comprehensive written report (with photos) that we can use as a guidepost to repairs the home will need in the near future. Thank you, Andy- you are amazing and I will contact you should I ever need help with verifying my current and future homes repair and maintenance needs.

He…read morewas referred to us by our fantastic relator (Hector Garcia), and we were 100% happy with Andy's services. He was readily available, efficient, friendly, and professional, and helped answer our questions during and after the inspection process. He reviewed the reports with us on his computer when he finished, and promptly emailed us copies of the report. We also had him do sewer scopes and radon tests. (Charge was $645 for inspection + sewer scope + radon test; he gave us a discount on the second inspection.) Tip: Always get the sewer scope! Andy pointed out that although the sewer on the first home was in perfectly good shape, it ran under the neighbor's home and yard, which was a lawsuit waiting to happen. Best money we ever spent . . .

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.

I've been in construction and looked myself, but they were much better informed, and went in with a fine tooth comb. The value of their service, which yes costed me a little, divided by 3 guys over 3 hours, plus a return trip to pickup and analyze the radon, and write the report is honestly worth it. I'm just starting out, young family, newly wed, etc., and that house would have financially ruined us and impacted our marriage. Will 100% call them on the next one we try to buy, probably in the next few months.

We recently purchased a home in Cornelius Oregon. The House Detectives were chosen by our broker to…read moreinspect the property prior to closing the deal so that we could make an informed decision. We were allowed to be there on inspection day to observe the process and speak directly to the inspectors as they were working. The two men were both very professional and quite thorough in their visual inspection of the home. They were up on the roof and crawling into all the attic spaces as well as crawling under the floor. They took pictures along the way and printed those pictures in a detailed report describing everything they discovered about the property. This report gave us the confidence we needed to complete the house purchase. We know what to expect about the remaining life cycle of the appliances and what we will face in short and long term maintenance and repairs on the house. If you ever find yourself in need of a home inspection, you probably could not find a more friendly and thorough crew than The House Detectives. We recommend them to you wholeheartedly.

Worst of all, when I tried to get warranty work done the other company just wouldn't respond or help in any way. I finally gave up and looked at reviews of other mitigation companies in my area. I settled on Just Radon and Im so happy I did. Lawrence came out and explained all the things that were wrong with my system. The other company obviously had no idea what they were even doing. I decided to have Just Radon replace the whole thing. I was so happy with the results. The system they removed looked like a 3rd graders science project! The new system was simple, efficient and blended in with my home. Turned out my house had some construction defects that kept the new system from working at 100%. Just Radon was helpful all throughout the process of diagnosing what was going on. Just Radon helped me find the appropriate people to fix the cracks in my foundation and get the system working a peak efficiency. I really felt they stood behind the work they did and wanted to make sure my home was mitigated correctly. If you need radon work done on your home trust the experts at Just Radon. They will get the job done correctly the first time and stand behind their work if any issues arise.
