I set up a project here in Yelp for pre-purchase Home inspections. I received about 4 answers…read morewithin a day and this Home Inspection Experts is the one that got my attention and trust right off the bat. 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%.

I used Yelp to send out multiple quotes and received a quick response, and quick replies to my…read morequestions. The inspector took us through the home to show us what they had found, and their recommendations. Very thorough, and took the time to explain things when we had questions. Really happy with our experience, definitely recommended.

Everything was excellent! From the timing to the inspector to the answering of questions. Thank you!read more

Rated F on the Better Business Bureau--and honestly, that tells you everything you need to know…read more They don't seem too concerned about reviews, probably because most of their business comes through real estate agents. I made the mistake of trusting mine when she recommended them for my condo inspection... lesson learned. The water heater didn't even work, yet somehow the inspector missed it--so I spent my first three weeks bonding with cold showers. The warranty company wouldn't cover it since the issue existed before I moved in. On top of that, I had to replace both toilets right away. Somehow they missed that too. Of course, when I contacted them, they denied any responsibility and took zero accountability for their mistakes. All in all, I would definitely not recommend them, especially if they're being suggested by your real estate agent.

We were purchasing a new property and needed an inspection of the home and sewer. After…read moreresearching several inspection firms, we ultimately decided to go with Elias at CR Home Inspections due to the reviews describing him as one of the most thorough professionals in the business. And indeed he was! Elias met us on an expedited schedule and he worked promptly with a deep attention to detail. He identified every little issue and gave us an extreme amount of comfort. He even fended off an annoying seller agent that ambushed him towards the end of his inspection and tried to get information on Elias' findings before he even discussed with the client (me). In summary, Elias is the best in the business and is a man of strong integrity. I highly recommend him and definitely would work with him again.

I was looking to buy a property in the OC and found Elias with 5 stars. Honestly, I'm pretty…read moreskeptical about that stuff but I needed the inspection ASAP and he was the first to reply and schedule. Sadly, he scheduled the wrong day and my agent went to the property and basically wasted the trip there since we had to reschedule to the next day. For me this wasn't a big deal since I didn't go out myself, but I felt bad that my agent wasted his time. Elias was very apologetic and even bought my agent a gift card as an apology. He totally owned up to his mistake and for me that speaks volumes about a person. The actual inspection was pretty good as far as I can tell, I'm not an expert on these kinds of things but the report was very detailed and had a lot of photos. He flew a drone up to the roof to take a look and even pointed out minor details like staining on the carpet that I honestly didn't catch when I saw the property myself. Seems like he used infrared to check for water leaks when inspecting the plumbing in the bathrooms and kitchen. In terms of pricing, he was one of the more expensive options but given the level of customer service he provided and the quality of the report I would say it's worth it. Overall, the experience with Elias was very positive and if I ever need inspection services again, he'll be the first I call.

Genuinely good guy in this otherwise very sketchy space…read more Everyone uses scare tactics to grab cash. He talks a lot about how mold is everywhere and grid to minimize because I think he's used to all the crazy worries we all have - so understand that's where he's coming from when he almost excessively tried to calm your fears. We had a substantial roof leak with mold in walls - all handled very well and professionally and nowhere nearly as expensive as it could have been. You won't regret calling him. Genuine good person. Hope he doesn't change.

The second inspection resulted in some cash back from the sellers and a confirmation that the purchase was a good decision.

I used Unique Home Inspections and specifically worked with Brandon for a home I'm currently…read morepurchasing, and the whole experience was excellent from start to finish. He was extremely thorough and truly left no stone unturned. He found issues that other inspectors could have easily overlooked, and those findings ended up helping me secure a sizable credit from the seller during negotiations. That alone made the inspection worth every penny. We did the full home inspection, main sewer line camera inspection, and mold inspection. Everything was handled professionally, and all reports, photos, and follow-up information were returned quickly and in a very timely manner, which was huge since real estate timelines move fast. He also explained everything clearly and made the process feel a lot less stressful. He was referred to me by someone I trust, and now I understand why. I'll definitely be recommending Brandon and Unique Home Inspections to friends, family, and anyone buying a home. If you want someone honest, detailed, and looking out for your best interests, he's a great choice!

You talked us through each step of your inspection detail by detail and went above and beyond! We couldn't stop singing your praises to our real estate agent and family members about our experience with you. Your report about your findings was incredibly informative and well organized. We had no idea how much time and effort went into typing a report of that magnitude and it was fantastic! Due to your inspection report, it helped us realize that the home we wanted was way out of our comfort level as far as upgrades and repairs! We will hire you again for sure in our journey to find our new home! Thank you!!!

On our first home inspection, Jeff Shankle really went above and beyond! The home had been recently…read moreflipped and the interior was immaculate -- but when Jeff went over it with a fine tooth comb, his inspection revealed some troubling corners that had been cut (deferred maintenance issues, like root balls in the sewer and galvanized plumbing, but also incorrectly vented bathroom plumbing and other difficult to spot issues that needed to be addressed.) We were so grateful for his patience and expertise, and believe me when I say we *really* peppered him with questions. He enjoys teaching and sharing his experience with others, and even encouraged us to reach out to him afterwards if we had more questions. After the first sale fell through, we made an offer on a different property and requested Jeff to come inspect that one, too. Once again, he took his time to carefully review his findings with us. I love DIY home projects so I especially appreciated his tips on which repair items he would do himself and why. If you're interested in learning more about how homes are built, how to maintain and care for an older home, or just generally want to improve your confidence and competence as a homeowner, I definitely recommend Elite and Jeff Shankle in particular.

We found Mike thanks to his amazing Yelp reviews, and after working with him, I can say the quality…read moreof his work went even beyond our expectations. We brought Mike in for a post-purchase inspection after discovering a number of issues our original inspector missed and wanted to be sure nothing else had been overlooked. Mike devoted his entire day to inspecting the property and then spent two hours with us going through his report, patiently answering every question, and offering thoughtful suggestions. I have to say, it is extremely rare to find someone with this level of work ethic and dedication to their craft. You can tell Mike truly loves what he does. If you're looking for peace of mind and want to know the exact condition of your home, you will not be disappointed. Mike truly sets the bar for what one should expect in a home inspection. A heartfelt thanks, Mike.

Mike might charge you double the other guys, but he is totally worth it!…read more He only does one inspection a day (which also means it can be tricky to get him!), which allows him to check every nook and cranny of the home in question. He doesn't shy away from doing the hard stuff, like going on rooftops or crawling under very tight crawlspaces. He gave us actionable items that we will be using to make sure that if he's still around when we sell our home and a seller hires him, he won't have much to say His detailed report was so good that when I hired specialist inspectors (like electrical and structural) due to issues he noted, they either trusted his report at face value and just gave me a quote for the repair or incorporated his findings and pictures into their reports! Plus, he brings snacks and drinks for you to munch on! Don't hesitate to hire him, he's worth every single penny!!
