Mike did a great job for us. He was professional and thorough and earned our trust right away. I felt he really made sure that he looked out for his client's best interest. In fact, we've asked him to return for our re inspection. read more

It's refreshing when you hire a contractor who enjoys their job and what they do. You get an entirely different level of experience when you work with someone like this. Mike arrived right on schedule to the house, greeted us and gave us a brief overview of what he would be checking then got right to work. He explained that it was about a 3-4 hour process(you want someone who is going to take their time and thoroughly check everything) After he finished the inspection, he then went back through and walked us through everything that he saw in laymans terms so that we could understand. He walked us through the pictures he took and explained what was happening that was causing the issues. After walking through, he told us the next steps, he emailed out the report the very next day(Sunday) and told us that if we had any additional questions on anything noted that we're more than welcome to contact him again to further explain. Top notch! Thanks to Mike and thanks to Yelp for the spot on reviews! read more

What I liked best about Mike was that he spent all the time we needed him to, not just to inspect the house but also to go over everything with us afterwards. I'm a realtor and have been in the business for 10+years and I really appreciated all the time and detail Mike put into his inspection and report. The only negative was that we were charged extra for having the crawl space inspected and this came as a surprise. What really made up for it was the thoroughness of the inspection, report and the personal time he put into showing us everything there was to see that we would need to know about this home. It was worth the money. I've used a lot of inspectors over the years and I would highly recommend Mike as he is professional, thorough, knowledgeable and personable. read more

Mike is outstanding, very prompt, and knows his stuff. His inspection report was very detailed full of pictures he took along with a summary. Highly recommend! We are in the process of purchasing a home built in the 70s that needs some TLC. We needed an inspection done quickly. It was a holiday Weekend when I contacted Mike and he got back to me right away and scheduled an inspection right away. We were there during the inspection and Mike took the time to explain carefully each of his findings. I cannot say how much I really appreciated his quality of work, clear communication, and willingness to take time to answer all of our questions. We received our inspection report in less than 24 hours (over 60 pages...Like I said, house needs some TLC) read more

Mike came out to do an inspection for a house we are buying. He is a friendly, yet professional guy who took his time to do a thorough inspection. At the end of the inspection, he walked me though all of the problems that he found, and impressed upon me which ones were the most important. Within 24 hours, Mike prepared for me a very detailed report complete with clear photos of EVERY defect. His report, with photos, was critical in getting the sellers to agree to make some repairs. If you want detailed, accurate, and swift reporting on a home you're looking to buy, you simply can't do better than PRP Inspections! In fact, if I were selling my house, I would have Mike come over and give me a full report BEFORE putting on the market so that I'd have plenty of time to make any necessary repairs. read more

Mike did a great job with our home inspection! I was unable to attend the actual inspection and felt that he did a great job with his descriptions as well as pictures of all problematic areas. I would definitely recommend Mike for home inspections. He was very helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks Mike for everything! read more

Mike was fantastic! Hire him!! Mike was early to the inspection, knowledgeable, friendly and answered all of my questions. Very efficient and made time for me any time I asked a question. Honest recommendations without over or undergoing it. I felt like he was working on his own property. Thanks Mike! read more

Mike was quick and thorough, and he made sure I understood everything in the inspection report

Very thorough inspection. Mike made me feel at ease and explained everything as we went through the inspection. Thanks Mike for helping us get to know more about our home! read more

Based on his Yelp reviews, we selected Mike to perform the inspection on the house we were buying. We were not disappointed! As many others have mentioned, he is truly honest, professional, thorough and friendly. He arrived early and got started right away. He meticulously inspected every nook and cranny and when he was done he took the time to walk us through the property, explaining everything to us in detail. He provided us with his thorough report 2 days later. Thanks again Mike for everything! read more

Ive used Mike twice, both times he has been a joy to work with. I will continue to use him. He is very flexible with buyers and sellers schedules. One word to describe him...DETAILED! Thanks Mike! read more

SAVED US FROM A DISASTER!!!! We found PRP Inspections in Yelp (among others), but Mike was the most courteous, had the fairest rate, and offered the most comprehensive inspection out of the top 5 we interviewed. We followed our gut and went with PRP Inspections and sure enough it was well worth it. Mike was everything we had hoped for and then some. He was extremely thorough in his inspection, his explanations of his findings, and his reports. Mike and his team saved us from making a HUGE mistake with the first home he inspected for us by finding several problems with the house with plumbing, HVAC, structural, electrical, and especially hidden moisture inside walls. We cancelled the purchase of this home and hired PRP Inspections on another home and Mike was able to verify that the home was in very good condition, but were able to get sellers to make necessary repairs prior to completing the purchase. Thank you Mike!!!! read more

Inspection day was very scary for me, that is until Michael showed up and put my concerns to rest! I really appreciated the fact that he was so thorough and really walked us through every concern he had about the house. He was very sincere and I felt good about my purchase and went like he went above and beyond his duties! Would highly recommend!!! If I do ever buy again I would only use PRP! read more

Though my wife and I were not selling our house, we decided to have our 6.5 year home inspected so we could get in front of any unforeseen maintenance or looming issues. We are so glad that we hired PRP, not only was Michael thorough and very pleasant to work with, he discovered a leaky toilet that without his diligence would have gone undetected for who knows how long and could have cost substantially more to repair. But that's not all....it gets better! The leak was one that was supposedly fixed less than 18 months ago and it took 5 years for that leak to be detected and resulted in damage to our wood flooring and walls. But since we caught the leak early this time not only did we mitigate the damage but the company who did the original repair is stepping up and doing the work again at no charge to us. We will be hiring Michael again in 5 years for another "preventative inspection". read more

Mike was very helpful and thorough guiding us through the details of the inspection for our first home purchase. He was pleasant to deal with and very informative. I'd highly reccommend him to anyone needing a thorough home inspection prior to purchasing a home. read more

Just had my home inspection completed this week by Tyler. He was a fantastic home inspector and took the time to walk through the whole property with me and show me everything he was looking at and why it was important. He gave his honest opinion throughout and even gave me some input on items that are not typically part of home inspections. Tyler was a consummate professional and clearly had my family's best interest in mind while completing this home inspection. Highly recommend PRP inspections to any buyer, especially first time buyers like me. read more

Mike did an amazing job. He was very professional and thorough and definitely went above and beyond what other inspectors would have done. He didn't mind letting me follow him around to ask questions during the inspection and explained every issue very well. I would definitely recommend Mike to inspect your home! read more

Mike was professional and informative during our home inspection. He took the time at the end of his inspection to answer our questions. He was efficient and thorough and his advice helped us to find potential problems before we closed which helped us to get credits. I would highly recommend Mike. read more

Michael was EXCELLENT! Worked around my schedule and even came out twice and fought off bees in order to complete my home inspection. I've had several inspections by others before in San Diego and he is definitely the best. He answered all my questions and more and helped me ease my anxiety about purchasing a 1950's home (luckily it was in good shape). Best of all his rates are competitive and ultimately provides a thorough inspection. read more

Mike did an awesome job inspecting a house that we were considering on buying in Fallbrook, Ca. Mike spent the required time to cover everything on this lot (1.5 ac) including a guest house and a Koi pond. Mike's inspection of the home was very detailed and comprehensive and he did a great job of explaining everything to us post inspection. Unfortunately the home owners decided not to sell so we are back looking again for a home again. We intend on using Mike on our next inspection. Mike does pools too! Thanks Mike!! read more

As everyone's review's already indicated (which is why I hired him in the first place), Mike did an impressive job. He was early. He asked whether I preferred to shadow him or wait at the end, and he very graciously answered all questions and gave helpful hints along the way- which I'm sure were not part of the official inspection (furniture polish to help make sliding glass doors slide better! ) He spent as much time as needed, and summarized his findings. I would definitely recommend him. Now Mike- go spend time with your family!!! :) read more

Mike, PRP Inspections, was very thorough in his home buyer inspection. He did an excellent job of communicating his findings to us the home us both with a verbal debrief after the inspection and a follow up written report. He was very professional, he showed up on time, was courteous and delivered the report on time. I would highly recommend PRP inspections. read more

Mike did a fantastic job inspecting our future home this weekend. You can really tell he knows his stuff and has a lot of pride in providing a quality accurate inspection. He went above and beyond showing my wife and I how to operate certain things and also showed us what to watch out for in the future so we can keep our home in great condition. If you are in the market for inspections services I highly recommend Mike. read more

Mike was awesome! He's super easy going and knows his stuff. We needed an inspection and had only a few days to get it done due to a short escrow and Mike delivered. I was picky about who we hired given the hefty investment we would be making to purchase the home and wanted to ensure it was done right. Mike was there for several hours. He took his time and walked me through all of the issues in addition to putting it into terms that I would understand. He didn't mind when I asked to record his explanation of some issues with the water heater that I wanted to share with my husband who was not present at the time. He did a thorough inspection of the pool and discussed how to properly maintain it (it's new to us since we've never owned a house with a pool). He got us our report quickly, along with photos to support his assessment. I highly recommend him! read more

Great service and great experience overall! Recommended PRP all day long! I never Yelp, but Mike is great, friendly and he is well experienced in all areas. I will recommend him to everyone I know who needs a home inspection, thank you Mike! read more

Mike was great! He took the time to explain everything. He was also very professional and easy to work with. He provided a thorough report in one day! I work in the trades and it's refreshing to work with someone as professional as Mike. read more

My experience with PRP inspections was for buying a condo. He covered the entire property in about 2 hours and was upfront in letting me know what needs (and does not need) to be inspected for a condo. His work is top-tier. He found quite a few things that I could ask the seller to fix. Delivered a detailed report with images as well. He also introduces the house to you in some fashion as to were all the controls are, etc. Overall satisfied. read more

Michael did an excellent job inspecting a home in Santee for me. He was thorough, professional, knowledgeable and kept me informed throughout the inspection. I would highly recommend Micheal for your home inspection! read more

Was referred to Mr.Durnell to do my home inspection and that was some of the best money I have invested considering I was buying a home. I was able to schedule and he worked with my schedule and got in did a through inspection he found some items that needed correction that I would have never known since he has a thermal detector that checks for moisture and also he is very knowledgeable and assisting on what should and shouldn't be he doesn't just charge you a fee wipes his hand across a counter top and say the home inspection is complete to check the box. You want to know the hidden things of something your buying and he gets the job done thanks Mike. read more

Mike's inspection was extremely thorough (the most thorough I have experienced) and his inspection report was fantastic - detailed, excellently documented with pictures, but just as importantly, logical and easy to read and easy to send on to relevant parties. Mike professionalism extends to making sure you understand everything he is talking about, inviting and anticipating questions, and offering follow up consultation. So you get all of the thoroughness above AND friendly service too! I cannot recommend Mike and PRP Inspections enough. During the home-buying process, this level of professionalism and service is priceless, and gives you all the information and confidence you need to move forward. read more

Our realtor recommended using Mike and we are so thankful that we were sent his way. It was very clear throughout our time with him that he prides himself on being professional, courteous, and thorough. He walked us through every detail of his inspection inside and out showing us pictures of his findings. We had heard the stories of other inspectors who pop their heads into the attic and shine a flashlight. Rest assured that Mike is crawling around spaces in the home that nobody else is. We give our highest recommendation to Mike if you are in the market for a home inspector. read more

Mike was great, explained everything, friendly and professional. He allowed me to record and take photos, and we received his report in 24 hrs of the inspection. This gave us more time to schedule specialized inspections, which revealed some costly issues in the foundation.. read more

My wife and I were very impressed with the home inspection service from Mike. He was prompt and very thorough. He explained everything he was checking, showed us how he comes to those conclusions, and was also personable which is always a nice bonus! It hardly felt like a business transaction because of his friendly nature, yet you never forget he is a professional doing his job. We never felt rushed and he was happy to answer any questions we had. If and when we buy again, we will gladly use Mike and his PRP Inspections. Thanks, Mike! read more

Mike did a thorough inspection of our new home. We reached out to him based on the positive reviews and to ensure an unbiased inspection. We were not disappointed. He identified a number of plumbing and electrical issues that were corrected by the seller and explained each and every issue, giving us guideposts as to what is critical and what it would cost to repair. Very pleased with the service provided and would not hesitate to recommend him. read more

Mike was so great! My husband was on the east coast during both of our inspections but Mike took the time to walk through and explain everything he could over the phone and through pictures. He wanted to make us aware of everything that we may not know for the future with regards to child safety, etc. His reports are very thorough and he leaves no stone unturned so would highly recommend! read more

Thorough inspection and great communication. I was very impressed by the recent inspection PRP did for my new home. Our inspector was Tyler Galleher, and he demonstrated extensive knowledge and a great sense of humor. I highly recommend to all! read more

Mike was incredible. He talked me through everything and showed me ever detail. He definitely put my mind at ease in buying my new home. I highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much! read more

Mike is who to go to for your home inspection. The home I had inspected was in Vista and he did a great and thorough job. -He was very accommodating to the time I needed -extremely thorough in his inspection (he found quite a number of things and took photos of everything) - When he writes up the report it is extremely detailed fully listed with categories kitchen/structures/roofing and any recommendations. You can tell he makes sure these reports have everything even remotely wrong with the home laid out. -Mike answers any and all questions that pertain to your home inspection well. Very knowledgeable about his profession. If your on the bubble for who to pick just call him, you will feel comfortable right away. read more

Mike is great. I would have given 4 1/2 stars if allowed. I used him because he is small business, good reviews and served our country but this guy is top notch. he shows up on time, confirms by text with you, thorough, even went on roof in the rain. he explained everything to us, showed us pictures, just a super nice guy.....even my agent is going to use him for further home sales. I do have to say though that after I moved into my house. i did later found out that the garage doors were bolted to the wall and shouldn't be, they need to be installed away from the wall and that was corrected when I had my garage doors installed. After finding out of this issues via this posting I was contacted by Mr.Durnell and he offered to pay for the mistake regarding the garage door track, however, I did not accept his offer and certainly don't expect everyone to be perfect. read more
