everything from setting up the appointment to getting the inspection was great. Very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable.

This is only the second time I've bought a house so I'm a little fish out of water in this process. Luckily, my realtor steered me towards Sage! The first thing that stood out to me was their prompt service. We were able to schedule on my time, which was very convenient. The inspector was thorough and called my attention to details I hadn't noticed. I really felt as though the inspector treated me like his daughter, trying to see everything that could go wrong and document within his report, including pictures. Now that an issue has arisen, I'm even more grateful to have used Sage Home Inspections. Norm came out in person to look at the dishwasher and referred me to an excellent company to begin the repairs. I am beyond grateful to have selected an ethical business that treats their customers like family. read more

Utilized Sage Home Inspections to get a. Inspection done on a home I'm purchasing. Scheduling was quick and easy. I was able to call on Thursday evening and got an appointment the next day. Norm was so polite to talk to on the phone. Prices were fair and reasonable, and they were great to work with through my NACA loan. My inspector was Mike. He was so polite and thorough. He did an amazing job explaining the concerns he found. Definitely would recommend them your inspection needs! read more

I'm not even sure where to start. If you are looking for a home inspection service look no further. It's hard to find someone these days that does their job right. Norm this one's for you. I'm not sure How you put up with all of my questions and never got discouraged. You answered every one of them until I had no more and explained it so thoroughly. You put up with all of my phone calls even on the weekends and evenings not once getting discouraged. It's hard to find somebody who cares about what they do and actually cares about the people. I would've never made it through this process without you and all of your knowledge. I don't have a lot of experience in buying homes and what to look for. I am so grateful that you do what you do. You were aware of things that the real estate agents weren't. I will be forever grateful you saved me $190,000. I LOVE nice people. A big thank you to Larry too. . read more

Norm and his team were phenomenal! I was looking to get an inspection done on short notice, and they were the only ones to be able to do it. They will for now on be the only company we use for Home Inspections. read more

I've been using Norm and his crew at Sage Inspections since 2020. They are thorough, and honest without scaring the crap out of my clients! They let you know if they find something that is a small fix, a big problem, or if the home is in such a condition that they would let their own mothers buy the house! They are always accessible by phone and happy to answer questions and explain things in a way the average person can understand. They are priced competitively and pay attention to the particular needs of each client. I recommend them every time! read more

I would NOT recommend this home inspector. It has been about 9 months since my home inspection was performed. I do not feel that this company is experienced and thorough enough to perform inspections on high value property. Since my inspection took place, I have found out that there was previous severe roof damage (that was no disclosed by the sellers) and freezing issues with my water lines in the basement (also not disclosed). When I reached out to him after the inspection was complete, he replied that he didn't remember inspecting my property. Did he check the boxes? Yes. Was he providing a quality service for me? No. My personal opinion is that he was just going through the motions to get a paycheck. read more

Norm with Sage Inspections is amazing. Not only was he extremely thorough and knowledgeable when inspecting my property before purchase but upon selling he was able to provide information and documentation that I needed a year later. He is very responsive and timely in his reports. And you can always contact him via phone, text or email. I will recommend this company and continue to use them! read more

I've used Norm four times for home inspections and always pleased with his thoroughness. His reports are so detailed and very helpful. When I purchasing a home in St. Louis, I will always hire Sage Inspections. Great team, awesome people. read more

Norm has been very helpful throughout our buying experience. As an investor himself, he is able to break down issues that might prove costly to other investors. He's very responsive, and the inspection was detailed. read more

Used Sage Home Inspections in Dec 2021 (Michael Baker) for a pre-purchase inspection of a house. He was very thorough, provided the report right away, and followed up with phone consultation after the visit. If I ever need another home inspection, I would most definitely use Sage. 5 stars for sure. read more

I am thoroughly impressed with the level of service, quality of work and the advanced tools provided by Sage Inspections that allow Home Buyers to be in control of the inspection process. Norm and his crew were attentive, efficient, friendly, patient and very thorough. As a Realtor, I was educated and my clients enjoyed getting to know their new home. Additionally, Sage Inspections uses great tech to supply the report with hi-res images and even allows the buyer to create their own "Repair Report", putting the clients in the driver's seat. I love it! I will absolutely refer Norm and Sage Inspections in the future. read more

My real estate agent recommended Sage inspection and initially I went with the second person her list because I couldn't get Norm right away. He was just returning from vacation in Australia! I had already set an appointment with the second inspector when Norm got back with me. After our conversation I canceled with the other inspector. He answered all of the questions that I couldn't quite get answered by the other inspector before I could even ask them. This is my first home and his level of detail, confidence and honesty made me feel so much more comfortable than the other inspector. Sage was actually more expensive than the other inspector but Norm's professionalism, confidence and detail sold me right away. Mike ended up doing the inspection because he lived closest to the property. he was very thorough. The report that he generated by the next day was detailed with pictures, recommendations etc. He walked through the house with me afterward and made sure I saw and understood what and where necessary repairs were. He also gave recommendations on what would be required for occupancy which was greatly appreciated. I feel very comfortable with the decision that I made and I would recommend them to family and friends in the future. Thanks guys! read more

Norm was amazing! He was what my husband called the "Navy Seal" of inspectors. He made this frightening thing of buying our first home to a very easy confident experience! Thanks Norm! read more

Norm is very responsive and it was easy to set up an inspection. The process went very smoothly and Norm went above and beyond to address any issues with the property. Professional and high level of service. Would recommend! read more

My wife and I are first time home buyers so we were naturally a little nervous and apprehensive through the buying process. On top of that we were buying a historic property that is over 100 years old. From Norm's first call he was professional, responsive, and incredibly thorough in his inspection of the property. It was very easy to schedule the inspection and he even brought three extra people because "this is a really amazing home and we all wanted to see it!" Fine by me because that meant we had eight eyes on everything rather than just two. Our inspection report was promptly delivered and contained surprisingly few items that needed to be addressed. At our final walkthrough yesterday we noticed some minor paint bubbling on one of the interior walls. We called Norm out of the blue on a Saturday morning at 9:00 a.m. He remembered us, remembered the property, and said "I'll be right there." This was without any advance warning or notice he just dropped whatever he was doing and came over. It turned out to be just a minor cosmetic issue. I have never written a Yelp review before but I really felt like others should know that Norm went above and beyond my wife and I. The choice of a home inspector is a very important one when purchasing a home. I would recommend Sage Home Inspectors to anybody that is interested in a quality inspection that is executed professionally by a company that is interested in putting your interests first. read more

Me and my fiance just found a home in Oakville, and we spoke with Norm that made the process simple. He spoke with us and got us comfortable with him before coming in. He let us have some peace of mind about the HVAC system and the condition if our home before buying it. Him seeing the home made us look at it in another light and think about future purchases. Have a good vacation Norm! read more

This guy is fantastic. Did my inspection on time, reliable and very friendly. Reasonable in price. I usually don't bother to write a review about anything but I feel like I should here. I highly recommend him. read more

These guys are amazing!! From the first initial phone call to the inspection and even after, they have answered any questions I had and really just looked out for us as buyers! They are probably the most honest people in the business that we have ever met. They do a great and thorough inspection, even catching the small things! Best money we ever spent!! Thanks so much:) read more

Norm did a fantastic job! He had great attention to detail and even went so far as to fix the jammed garbage disposal during the inspection. He was very informative and explained potential solutions to each problem he saw. Throughout the process he was very communicative, friendly, and flexible. Would definitely recommend! read more

Company was chosen for our inspection based on their positive online reviews. Whatever the reason, we were not able to get proof that the services we paid for and did not personally witness were completed. Inspector rescheduled based on availability of sewer lateral folks, then they were not there at the time of the appointment anyway, and botched the process when the did complete it (if they did ever attempt; we aren't certain). Half the inspection was done by his "assistant", who in hindsight was likely not a certified home inspector. Sage provided us with a refund for the sewer lateral that did not occur, to the home seller for the service they provided (to clear the non-existent "blockage" and redo the camera, a cost that would have been our responsibility), and the radon inspection that he could not provide us a report for. Since we were unsure that the roof had actually been inspected, we had a a last-minute additional roof inspection from another company; the seller agreed to the services they recommended, a not-insignificant cost. Appreciated the refund, but not the stress of this process. Fortunately the rest of our home-buying went smoothly. read more

Norm is great to work with. Follows up, gives detailed reports after inspections and available to answer any and all questions. I highly recommend Sage! read more

Sage Inspectors did a great job for me. First, they moved things around on their schedule to accomodate my timing. Second, they worked with the realtors on both sides to make things easier for me. Last, the inspection and report I received were top quality. They not only pointed out necessary repairs but gave me ideas for improving my new home after move in. You should hire Norm and his team! read more
