The other inspections scheduled for 9am on Wednesday. My buyer drove from St. Charles to St. Clair this morning and the only person to show up was the gas company! It's now 11:35am and we still haven't heard from anyone regarding this appointment. The number provided goes straight to voicemail, no response via text or email. I have been in real estate 6 years and I have NEVER had an inspector not show up for the job especially when they send out a confirmation reminder to buyer the day before. You all should be ashamed of yourselves!

We did a fair amount of internet research on the various suggested solutions and on the companies we had heard from. We selected Permajack of St. Louis both because we decided that their solution and methods seemed preferable and because their bid was reasonable ... not the lowest but not outlandish. Everything about dealing with them was professional. Calls were returned promptly. Questions answered quickly. The project was completed as promised and on time. The crew was respectful of our home and property and did everything they could to mitigate the noise and inconvenience. They even went so far as to hook up the washer and dryer when they were done, without being asked, after we expressed some concern about being able to use them while the cement cured. When the crew left, the work area was spotless and the whole process had been much less painful than we expected. I would absolutely recommend Permajack of St. Louis.

So when we…read moreencountered an issue with a third foundation wall, we didn't hesitate to call Perma Jack to help fix this problem as well. Their teams did an excellent job not only on my basement, but you couldn't even tell that they had to dig large holes in my front yard to anchor my foundation wall. The lawn was repaired so well I could barely tell where they dug. All of their staff were professional, on time, and cleaned up when the job was complete. We are very happy with their work.

When I asked my realtor for a home inspector reference he suggested Jim St. Vrain from US Inspect…read moreas one of the options. I compared US with a few other companies which I found on Angie's list, Yelp, etc. and ultimately decided to go with Jim for the following reasons: 1) Jim is ASHI certified as well as a Certified Real Estate Thermographer (more details on that later). 2) The rates for US Inspect were comparable to the several other options I looked up. 3) If you look at their sample reports online they are extremely detailed and informative which is what you want as a buyer when it comes to negotiating. The day of the inspection Jim was extremely meticulous, professional, and personable. As noteworthy items came up he would review them with me so I understood what the issue was and what the recommended actions were. He also provided helpful homeowner tips to maintain and increase the lifespan of my future home. When it came to the last step, which is a thermal inspection for leaks, Jim found moisture in the ceiling which I would have never known about otherwise. Whether your inspection comes out favorable or not you want to walk away feeling like you have an idea of exactly what issues you currently have or may have in the future. Working with Jim and US Inspect was a great experience and I would recommend to anyone needing a home inspection.

Their ineptitude will cost me an unplanned $7000 spend (after buying a house) to completely replace a deck a "professional" inspector should have caught. Their Claims department is nothing but a rouse and hides behind ambiguous language in their report and points the finger at the buyer. Here is literally what the person wrote to me (didn't have the decency to call on the phone after numerous requests: "We believe that the report was comprehensive enough and called out defects to the deck that should have prompted you to consult a contractor to assess the deck as a whole."

'About the House with Troy Galloway' currently has over 60 episodes and I'm always impressed with the incredibly smart guests he gets. Recording all of those episodes of 'About the House' with Troy has definitely made homeownership a lot less scary for me. Troy is a sweet and honest guy and I can tell all he wants to do is help people, especially when they've gotten ripped off by an untrustworthy company. Don't be afraid to contact him if you have a question, because believe me, this guy LOVES to answer questions.

He walked through the entire property with me, a gut rehab 120-year-old home. This is my first house and he gave me lots of pointers on what to watch for and how to operate the home in general, beyond the inspection. I had many questions and he answered them all. The report he provided helped me to negotiate some additional fixes from the seller, things I didn't even know existed or how to ask for. I wanted an expert in old St. Louis houses, with lots of experience. After watching his extensive collection of youtube videos, I was convinced. Troy was very easy to coordinate with, he was on time, knew exactly what to do, and was easy to reach on the phone. He offered multiple levels of service and was very honest with me and guided me on which ones I did and did not need. I got a termite, radon, and sewer lateral inspection as well, and he coordinated everything. The written report was extensive, with pictures and comments. After living in the house for a while, I have had no surprises. Success! I would 100% hire Troy Galloway / Galloway Building Services again.
