He didn't just point out what was wrong, but explained the why and available remedial measures. He went above and beyond to wait for me to show up (late) from work, after he had already spent so much time with my husband, just to give me a chance to hear the results of his inspection and see the house again. We are so thankful to have been recommended Highland Home Inspectors, and will absolutely be recommending Colin to all of our friends and family! Thank you, Colin!

I like to think of myself as being reasonably handy, and he was a great sounding board for developing methods to fix the issues he did find. The actual inspection was a breeze. Dave took somewhere around three or four hours to go through the entire house, including the garage and the exterior. Every now and then he would touch base and bring issues to our attention. While going over the inspection report, he made sure to bring special attentions to areas where deficiencies were seen. He was extremely knowledgeable and ready to answer any question I could throw at him. I would recommend Helling in a heartbeat to anyone who needs home inspection services.

Listen to what the other reviews mention - Mark Thomas is the best and is well worth it…read more I recently purchases a duplex down in Bayview and he was recommended to me by my realtor, Norm Terapak (Terapak Realty), as being the best. After calling up and speaking with his assistant about his rates and time, I noticed that it was a little more expensive than other home inspectors. She did mention that it is since he is the best, has the best reports, gets on the roof, and takes his time going through. I took Norm and her word for it and had Mark take a look at the property. His assistant called to let me know that he was running late due to traffic yet he still showed up on time, which is always a plus. We spent more than 4 hours looking through EVERYTHING, and I mean he looked at and tested everything. I have been told that most inspectors don't go up on roofs anymore yet Mark got up on the roof, snapped pictures, and was checking it out for 15 minutes. Mark uses a digital camera to take dozens of pictures and has a laptop on site that he uploads them to right away. He puts together his digital report as he goes. In all he provided a digital PDF copy of the report that was 37 pages long with so much detail. Not only did it include a few pictures on each page, descriptions, but also diagrams of how to correct it or what it should look like. Mark also knew I was a first time duplex buyer and would educate me along the way, show me various items, and explain things in detail so I would understand and know for the future. He was very educational and helpful. He may be a little more expensive than others yet what he found I was able to get some serious money knocked off the price so it was money very well spent. Highly recommend Mark and will be using him in the future.

All of the other reviewers are right, he is incredibly thorough, describes things in a way anyone could understand and goes over the report with you on-site. He says some inspection places don't do the report on-site and I think that would be really inconvenient. As we were talking he mentioned some things that I then asked him to include in the report and he was happy to do so. What a drag it would have been to go over it all myself and ask for changes later. You can't go wrong here if you need the best.

The VA loan officer referred me to Extensive Home Inspections. Extensive Home Inspections did an excellent job! Fast, courteous and at a very reasonable rate.

I highly recommend Extensive Home Inspections for anyone needing a general home inspection but especially for those who need a termite inspection for a VA mortgage loan.

My wife and I recently purchased our first home and our Realtor, recommended Kelly and Extensive…read moreHome Inspections. The sellers wanted to close within 30 days so it was imperative that we found a home inspector asap. I scheduled our home inspection with Kelly on their website around 8 pm on a Saturday. Within 15 minutes, Kelly texted me thanking me for booking with Extensive and told me he would call tomorrow morning. In talking with Kelly the following morning, I was confident I had made the right choice. Kelly met with my wife and our Realtor at the home later that week and was incredible. He knew we were first time home buyers and went through and explained everything he was doing to my wife. He showed her several things that most first time home buyers probably wouldn't have known about and explained everything to her in a very easy to understand way. Kelly was very thorough throughout the inspection. The next day, he sent us a binder with everything he inspected which was extremely helpful. He also told us that if we ever had any questions throughout our time owning this home, we can call him. I was thrilled with Kelly and Extensive Home Inspections and would strongly recommend him to everyone!
