Buyers beware! He missed HUGE issues in our house and it was very detrimental and costly to us! We…read morewere moving to CO from out of state and used Paul (Lighthouse) for our inspection. We were counting on him to thoroughly inspect the home we were buying for any issue and we specifically shared with him that any previous leaks/water damage were a major concern for us. He missed an endless number of things in our house, but I'll just name a few major ones: There was a previous roof leak that caused actual mold in the attic. The mold remediation team said the moisture damage in the attic roof was quite apparent and there were also literal water spots on the interior ceiling at the time of inspection ....he missed it all! He also missed water damage around one of the interior windows in our family room. The entire window frame was warped and damaged and very visible...he completely missed it. The guest bathroom had a previous leak around the toilet, this was made clear by the staining around it on the floor, which he managed to miss in his initial inspection. We did call the toilet out because the damage was so apparent to us and so we asked him specifically to go back and look at it again. Upon his second inspection of that toilet, he did acknowledge there was water damage. How could a trained inspector miss such MAJOR and obvious issues?! I would never trust him with your home inspection. We have spent so much time worrying about the things he missed, not to mention how much it will cost to fix. He is not thorough and he will not take your concerns seriously and you will end up paying the price. Update: I read Paul's response and am sorry to see that he takes no ownership for his mistakes...one more reason not to use him. A few points of fact: 1) He claims he told our agent there was "previous moisture stains" in the attic, but yet what he sent to us in writing regarding his inspection of that portion of the attic was: "All other photos are from attics inspected today. Fiberglass Insulation averages about 10 to 12 inches thick. Attic appears to have appropriate attic ventilation. No major concerns were visible in these areas today.".....I'm supposed to believe he told my agent something different than what he told me directly in writing? I'm happy to share screenshots, Paul. He also doesn't explain how he missed the obvious water staining on the ceiling in the middle of the family room, which was how we ended up finding there was an issue. He missed it, we saw it, he is not thorough. 2) His excuse for missing the obvious water damage around the window was that he wrote in the report: "windows in the home may be original to the property and at or nearing the end of their useful life". Saying the windows may be original and may be near end of life is a heck of a lot different than saying a specific window has a specific issue that needs to be addressed. Paul missed an obvious issue with obvious damage, period. 3) We agree on this one, he did NOT note the obvious moisture damage around the toilet in our inspection and only went back and thoroughly inspected it based on our request. He admits that he then identified the damage. This is exactly what I said in my initial review. Once again, he missed it, we caught it, he is not thorough.

As a seller that had a home inspected by Ben, I could not be more disappointed to come home after…read morethe inspection and be told that they put holes in our ceiling. Thankfully our agent is working to have the damage repaired. Ben had my cell and my husband's cell and never called for permission to put holes in my ceiling. Their agent could have called ours to also get in touch to discuss this invasive process. That also never happened. I've sold and bought homes and have never heard of anything being damaged on purpose like this. I literally had to question if his license was real. I looked him up and it is, but in doing so, read the home inspectors "Standards of Practice" and no where did it say this was a standard practice. In addition, I had to pop home to let my son change clothes and witnessed Ben moving my furniture to open a window. I wasn't aware inspectors were allowed to touch our personal property. I guess if you are willing to put holes in a ceiling without asking, what is a little furniture moving? Ben was nice enough, but I can't overlook doing things without getting the owner's permission.

Ben at Balanced Property Inspections is fantastic. I have had 3 clients this year use him (so far)…read moreand they and I have had the most positive experiences. He is thorough, professional, and explains things clearly to clients so they understand the items that have come up within the inspection. The inspection part of a real estate contract can feel stressful for both buyer and seller, and Ben's calm demeanor helps to smooth out any heightened emotions. I will 100% continue to recommend Ben to other clients and agents!

If I could give zero stars or negative stars; I Would!…read more - Misrepresentation, Damage to My Home, and Refusal to Return Payment Do not hire Jerome Archuleta / 360 Vizionz. I hired Jerome for exterior repair and painting work and paid a substantial deposit based on his representation that he was a licensed contractor working with a business partner. That was not accurate. (I realize this was my mistake but the lies started from the beginning). When problems started, I tracked down the individual he claimed was his partner. He came to my home, confirmed he is NOT affiliated with Jerome in any way, and stated clearly that the preparation work performed was completely incorrect. The work done to my home was not just poor--it was damaging. The prep and "sealing" under the siding was done improperly and in a way that multiple professionals have since told me has led to failure and has required costly correction. To verify this, I brought in four independent contractors. I gave them no background. Each one immediately identified the prep as severely deficient. More than one described it as some of the worst prep work they had ever seen. There were also repeated inconsistencies about materials--what I was told would be used did not match what was actually delivered or applied. I never received the supplies that I paid for!!! At the same time, there was a pattern of no-shows and shifting explanations. (Everything from a diabetic-attack to his non-existent van broke down) ... I was repeatedly told he was "coming back to finish," but he failed to show up and the work remained incomplete. It became clear he did NOT have the skill nor ability to properly complete or correct the job. I ultimately had to terminate him. I then requested a refund for the work that was not completed, supplies that weren't provided, and for the damage caused. He has refused to return any money. As a result, I paid for work that was not done correctly, was left with damage to my home, and now have to spend additional money to fix it. This experience involved misrepresentation, non-performance, and financial loss. Verify licensing and credentials independently before hiring. PROCEED WITH EXTREME CAUTION - he will misrepresent who he is in business with as well as his credentials. His references are also NOT valid.

I hired him to do drywall for me, I have a unique texture on my walls and I expressed repeatedly…read morehow important it was to hire someone who was sure they could replicate the texture. He assured me he would get it done right. Long story short, after paying him a small fortune, it turned out so bad I now have to pay another person to re-do it. When I expressed my disappointment in the texture he dismissed me and responded by telling me the "walls look nice". I'll let the people reading this review decide for themselves how the walls look‍...see attached pics. However, that's not the worst part, the thing that actually made me mad enough to write a bad review was the state in which he left our house. He just left tape, smeared drywall mud, and piles of dust in every room he worked in. It was a nightmare to clean up....literally hours of cleaning! I have renovated 3 houses floor to ceiling and never have I had anyone leave a mess like Jerome did. He literally didn't even lay down cover on our brand new floors upstairs before he mudded, sanded, and textured. He also doesn't cover anything with plastic; we had to cover things with plastic ourselves. Every other drywall and painter I've used has covered everything in plastic. I kept telling myself not to worry, it would all get cleaned up....I was wrong and it cost me LOTS of time and $$$$! UPDATE: I saw Jerome's response. On top of everything else, he is not honest. We never said we'd clean up his mess and he knows it....hence the reason he couldn't post the "screenshot" he claimed he has showing me saying it. He's just flat out lying to save face. We also didn't "rush him out the door". In fact, he was the one who rushed out the door because he said he had another job he needed to start on in Castle Rock and we actually had to ask him to stay and complete the work he had committed to. Also, he didn't actually finish the work we contracted him to do, which is why he didn't get paid the full amount and he knows that's why. He said he'd "forgot" part of the repairs and didn't have time to clean up, yet he didn't mention that in his response at all....just said we owe him money...hmm. He also definitely didn't do any unpaid "extra work" like he's claiming. I literally paid this man $2,494....the remaining $756 (not $766) was not paid because of the work that was not done. He did offer to come back at a later date to complete the work he "forgot", but his texture was so bad and he left such a mess that I decided it would be crazy to bring him back! He also failed to mention to all of you that he told me before I hired him that he was bringing in a finisher with 40 years of experience to do the texture on my walls and charged me $1200 for the finisher's services alone....the finisher didn't end up doing the texture as promised, because Jerome said he didn't like his work and he thought he could do better himself. Lastly, I did have 2 (not 3) other people do drywall texture in other areas. I absolutely did NOT fire them, but I didn't love how the texture turned out, which is why I repeatedly told Jerome I was only looking to hire someone who was certain they could replicate the texture. Jerome assured me he could get it done right...but he definitely couldn't, as shown by the pics of his work. In fact, he charged more than all of them and his work was the worst looking texture of all.

My rental property in Erie HIghlands built 2 years ago was causing constant breathing and…read morecongestion problems for my renters so I called Joe Riley, Owner in to test the air quality. He's brought in lots of testers and equipment, took pictures, and wrote a detailed report about what the problem was. He tested for gas, CO2, and many other particulates in the air. It turned out that the drywallers must have just swept all the dust from sanding the drywall mud into the venting system. It was caked with drywall dust (silica/gypsum). He referred me to his trusted duct cleaning company Ductworks -Eric-303-425- 0985 and they came in two days. Their tech, Will was fabulous and spent 5+ hours jetting and cleaning the filled ducts throughout the home. If you have any question about what might be causing health issues or just want to check to see what your air quality is, call Joe. Anyone with a newly built home should for sure have your ductwork checked.

Joe is an absolute font of knowledge about mold remediation and water damage! I'm AMAZED at the…read morequality service he provided!!!! First of all, the appointment was originally going to take less than an hour, and he spent almost 2 hours going over my property with a fine-tooth comb and suggesting all kinds of incredibly helpful fixes. The fixes he suggested alone were worth more than twice the cost of the service. Second, the mold testing he offered--through SEEML, a nationally-renowned lab--was a better value than that offered by any other company I could find. Thirdly, because of his long duration working with SEEML, they prioritize the samples he sends them so he is able to get you results more quickly than any other company! And finally, he continues to serve as a reference to you as you complete the remediation and repairs he suggests. He is a trustworthy and invaluable resource!
