We were very impressed by Adam. He arrived early, did a very thorough job, has been responsive to questions, and was a pleasure to deal with. We would highly recommend him. read more

We found wires run on the surface of drywall after the inspection. We found unsealed walls that attached to the garage, where carbon monoxide would come in and we found water damage that, was obvious when viewed on the surface. The property is a 5000 sq foot house, so maybe he was overwhelmed. It is my opinion that Adam is what's wrong with the home inspection industry and we would absolutely not work with him again. Keep looking. read more

Adam was great and very responsive to all my questions. The appointment was made 2 days before the pre drywall inspection. On the day of the inspection, I arrived 30 min early. Adam has completed most the the report. He showed me all the items that he has found. He is very professional and very objective. I am glad that I choose him to inspect my new construction home. Not all home inspector have the cert. to do a pre drywall inspection. Bob read more

If I could give Adam 6 stars, I would do so. My offer to purchase an existing home was accepted on a Thursday evening and I called Adam at 9 AM on Friday morning and he picked up immediately. We discussed the location and property details and settled on an inspection for Monday. He sent a standard contractual agreement and I pre-paid for the services. On Monday, Adam conducted an extremely thorough inspection of a 1970s-era home and identified dozens of issues, large and small, that had to be addressed. He issued the inspection report 24 hours later. My realtor and I submitted the detailed inspection report to the selller and their realtor and successfully negotiated $50,000 in concessions. I selected Adam because of his home-building experience which most inspectors do not possess. I am glad that I chose Adam and highly recommend you do so as well. read more

My husband and I are 1st time home buyers and never have experienced having to go through a home inspection etc. Adam made it easy and smooth and he very knowledgeable and professional. He answered all of my questions and concerns regarding the home we were looking to buy. I appreciate his work ethics. He is very thorough and makes sure to do his job right. He takes his time and you can tell he has passion and cares about what he does. He doesn't rush through the inspection at all. He definitely has a good eye and knows what to look for and see whats wrong with whatever it may be. You get what you paid for. I would definitely use him again in the future and highly recommend him!!! 5++ stars :) read more

Adam does a great job of inspecting homes! He's very friendly, extremely informative and thoroughly looks over everything. He offers advice on when and how to get anything fixed if he finds something- from smaller cosmetic fixes to larger items. He sends an extremely thorough report with images and recommendations shortly after completing the inspection- we were impressed with the turn around. He's down to earth and his advice is genuine. Would 10/10 recommend Adam and Home Hero Inspections!! read more

New construction inspection. Adam did an excellent job calling out what the builder needed to fix both during pre-dry wall and pre-walk through inspections. His inspection reports include videos of what needs to be fixed and he was very insightful sharing his 20+ years of experience in the NOVA area, especially about what should be the responsibility of the builder, home owner and county. He is also very accessible, through email, phone call especially during that last week before closing. I highly recommend Adam for your home inspection needs. It's not just a report, it is advice and stewardship through the closing process. read more

I found Home Hero Inspections via HomeAdvisor. Adam called me within the hour and spent about 15 minutes on the phone with me answering questions and listening to my concerns. Adam inspected the foundation on a home we are having built in Fredericksburg. His report was thorough and included a number of photos showing what he inspected. We are very happy with his work and will be using his services again for the pre-drywall inspection. read more

We got our home inspected back in 2019 and Adam was great. He treats every home like it is his own and is very detail oriented. He noticed things we didn't. He's not afraid to let you know what's wrong and how it can be fixed. He did a very thorough job and even provided us a booklet with pictures and everything of the inspection which was awesome. If I ever get a house again I'm definitely calling Adam. And on the plus side he gives first responder discounts. read more

We had a great experience working with Adam for our rather large home inspection. From the get-go, he was responsive, efficient, and friendly. He got back to us quick when we requested a quote and an appointment. We were looking for someone with availability quickly and at one point we had to change the inspection day (at the home seller's cause, not Home Hero), and Adam was able to accommodate. He answered all our questions and walked us through his inspection findings. He pointed out the critical/moderate/mild issues and gave us a lot of background info that was helpful (on the AC units, Tanks, piping, siding, roofing, etc). The report was available within 24 hours (for us it was that night; quick!). Would recommend to friends and family, and would work with him again should I purchase another home. read more

Adam is extremely responsive to initial inquiry and all throughout the inspection process. We were able to schedule an inspection within a couple of days. Payment was done before the inspection and he proved that it was completely worth it. Within four hours, Adam thoroughly inspected a 3200 sq ft home and was able to identify numerous high risk safety hazards and provide dozens of recommendations. He uses Spectora to generate his inspection report which is super easy to export and read through with numerous pictures, videos, notes, and recommendations. It's clear his homebuilding experience has enabled him to be a top-rated inspector with high reviews on Yelp and Google. His excellent inspection report gave us leverage in the negotiation process as well. We are very happy in our experience with Adam because not only were we able to get a lower price on the home, but we are now fully prepared and aware of all the issues that we will have to address. Highly recommend his services. read more

I cannot say enough about what a great home inspection Adam did. The minute we pulled up to the house, we saw he was already on the roof, looking things over. He meticulously went through the house, identifying things big and small, giving us a sense of whether or not we should be concerned and when things should be addressed. Adam is also a firefighter, so his perspective on home safety was invaluable...he has seen first hand what can happen when little things go wrong and suddenly become big things. Probably the most valuable thing that he did, however, was identify a mold issue in the crawl space. Now, the house has a sizable crawl space and a good part of it is nice enough that you wouldn't mind storing out of season clothes in it. Nevertheless, he delved into the furthest part of the crawl space and found mold that was growing on the joists due to a poorly installed and damaged vapor barrier. This part of the crawl space was very tight, so he went out to his truck and put on coveralls and a respirator-type mask to take pictures for the inspection. This was huge, because we were able to ask the sellers to have the mold remediated as a part of the contract going forward. My daughter has an inhaler, so this was a pretty big deal to me. I also want to say that not only did Adam have the best rate around, he offered a discount because my husband is a veteran. I feel like we got a fantastic deal, the thorough home inspection gave us more value than we ever imagined -- well worth every single penny. You won't be disappointed with this Home Hero. read more

Could not have asked for anything better. Was very thorough and talked me through the entire inspection. Goes above and beyond and you can really tell that he takes great pride in his work. Very happy with his inspection. I will be recommending Adam to as many people as I can. read more

Adam did an outstanding job on our home inspection. He was very thorough and detail-oriented. The report was thorough and well-documented. I would not hesitate to use him for our next home. I recommend Adam and Home Hero Inspections without reservation. read more

they were fast, good prices, good communication and delivery of report.

Adam inspected a home for us in July, 2018 and we couldn't be happier with his work. Completely professional and thorough, he was intent on providing an objective inspection for us, his clients, without being influenced by the realtor trying to make a sale. His inspection identified some major issues that saved us a considerable amount of trouble and money down road and enabled us to renegotiate a much fairer price with the seller based on the work that needed to be done, a $14,000. reduction in price. It is striking how much better his inspection and report were compared to one we had for a house a few years ago. We received the report quickly and it was both detailed and easy to understand. It included helpful links to reference articles published about particular issues identified during the inspection. read more

Mr. Adam Hanson came to work on the home inspection when I was buying a house. He checked the whole house throughly and explain every finding to us. He did the job professionally and the report came out even on weekend. I strongly suggest him to any home buyers because you would know clearly what you are getting. I am thinking to get his service after some time even I am not buying or selling the house. read more

I called Adam after my usual inspector cancelled. I am so glad I did! Adam was VERY responsive and was able to get the home inspected 2 days after I called him. He is incredibly thorough with his inspection, going over every inch of the house. He handled the nosey homeowner with professional grace. After his inspection, he walked me through the home and explained every detail of his findings. Showed me all the pictures he took and what concerns he had and how they could be mitigated. He answered all of my questions and taught me quite a lot. He is a true quality professional and a really nice guy! I ended up not purchasing the house so I will definitely call him for the next house I am thinking about buying. He is my new go-to inspector. read more

Adam and his partner were timely, efficient, thorough, and personable. They took the care and time to answer questions and provide detail where additional understanding was needed. read more
