But Randy didn't do that. Instead, he advised me to go straight to a contractor to address the issue, and mentioned that the inspection fee could be rolled into the repair cost. He also didn't pressure me by recommending any specific contractor. That level of honesty really stood out to me. I would 100% recommend Randy to my friends.

From srart to finish, the inspection was extremely thorough, professional, and easy to understand. The inspection, Jerry, took time to explain every detail, answered all of my questions and provided a clear, well-organized report.

We've used Brooks and Sons Inspections twice now, and both experiences were excellent. Jerry is…read morepunctual, incredibly thorough, and thoughtful in the way he approaches inspections. He's not just checking boxes -- he genuinely teaches you about the home and approaches the inspection as an educator, explaining things clearly and patiently as you go. I felt like I was going to school in the best way. His historical knowledge of homes by era was impressive. What really stood out was his attention to detail. He actually gave us more insight into our roof than our specialized roof inspector did, which says a lot. His reports were also delivered quickly and clearly, which was crucial for us since we were on a fast closing timeline. Jerry is also very friendly and easy to work with, which makes what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. His son, Kyle, handled the sewer inspection and was equally punctual, detailed, and professional. Together, they spent a significant amount of time going through everything thoroughly and never made us feel rushed. They even went above and beyond in small but meaningful ways -- during the patio inspection, Jerry noticed our screen door was a bit wobbly and fixed it on the spot. If you're looking for inspectors who are knowledgeable, meticulous, timely, and genuinely care about doing the job right, Brooks and Sons Inspections is an easy recommendation. We love Jerry!!

I contacted them because of the rave reviews I saw online and unfortunately, I was embarrassed at…read morehaving recommended them for my client's home inspection. Jerry was punctual but he rushed through the inspection - 1-1/2 hours for a 3200 sq ft single family residence - and missed items that should have been called out. When I mentioned some of them, including whether he tested the airflow with a meter from the HVAC vents as there is only one HVAC unit and it's a 2 story home, he replied that when he tested the heat and air, it worked fine but he never tested the amount of airflow out of the vents. He also failed to check if glass french doors were tempered or if they had the proper glazing. Previous inspections I have had with licensed inspectors that were actually less expensive than him, have always covered these things. It was a very disappointing experience.

They actually caught several items that I had missed myself. The quality of their report, their deep technical expertise, and the value they provide are outstanding. If you want an honest, detailed inspection from professionals who genuinely know their craft, Kirk is five stars all day long!

Definitely worth it if you're in a newer build and want a second set of eyes before the warranty runs out.

I hired Ron to do an inspection as I was selling my parents' house and was not completely familiar…read morewith the current condition. I like to use local, small businesses whenever possible, and his reviews were excellent. My mistake was not noticing how old they were. He advised it would take 4 to 4 1/2 hours to complete. He was there 5 hours when my realtor had to ask him to leave for the open house that was being held that day. He came back afterward to finish the roof inspection. He failed to complete an inspection for the kitchen due to "time constraints". However, he had time to note that there was a pet door that was a "safety" concern. He also stated that some items were issues that he was clearly wrong about ("minimal" strapping on a water heater that had 2 straps from a newly purchased kit and a third steel strap, replacement windows that he stated were the "builder type from the original construction"). While I appreciate thoroughness, spending time nitpicking every minor detail in a 61 year old house but not completing the full inspection I paid for is not acceptable. He did not get my name right on the report, even though I wrote it for him on the contract I signed. He did not provide the hard copy report that was promised, nor did he email it to me - I had to get it from my realtor. I'm giving him a 3 for thoroughness. If you have unlimited time to wait for this guy to complete the inspection, go for it. He may have been a great inspector in his prime, but personally I think he needs to hang it up and retire already.
