Excellent experience. thorough inspection. fully answered my questions and made sure I understood the issue.

I contacted Thomas at Sunshine Home Inspection initially to conduct a roof inspection that I needed after running into some trouble with a recent total roof redo. While he was at my property, I was explaining to him some other issues I was having. Thomas ended up being able to assist me with identifying the root cause of a moisture issue on my second floor and also conducted mold testing on the inside of my AC duct boxes. He was very professional and prompt in his reporting and inspection. His expertise helped me not only understand my prolonged issue with my new AC but also prepared me to ensure that it was rectified correctly. Highly recommend him if you need a no nonsense trustworthy inspector. read more

Sunshine Home Inspection - Home Inspectors Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Great experience working with the Michael. The inspection was thorough and the report returned quickly. He was available to answer any questions I had, even though I was not able to be present during the inspection. read more

I did not buy a home based on a failed inspection from Sunshine and DID buy my first home based on a passed inspection from them. The report was 30 pages long, complete with photos and explanations. I chose three things I wanted to be fixed and/or money for from the seller based on the report. The seller fixed the biggest one and gave me money for the others. Thomas is thorough and efficient. Was on time for both inspections. My only suggestion to him would be to use care when speaking with the buyer. On both inspections, he kept addressing my boyfriend as the buyer, and on both occasions, my boyfriend corrected him and told him I was the sole buyer. Contrary to what many men in Louisiana might think - a woman CAN buy a home by herself now!! Imagine that!!! read more

Thomas was thorough and did not hesitate to share his knowledge and answer any questions that I had. I would highly recommend his services. If you want peace of mind when purchasing a property, go with Thomas. read more

Outstanding home inspector !!! He asks who will go through with him during the inspection so we'll understand the report better and know the home better so will be equipped with knowledge once whoever comes to do the work or whether anything at all is needed!! You will be confident when he leaves!!!! He gives a valuable service with very reasonable fee!! read more

A borderline rip-off. Has you sign this extensive contract beforehand, presumably because the actual inspection doesn't cover anything you likely already haven't checked (e.g. hitting a light switch) and they're attempting to buffer themselves from an inevitably angry client. The report was absurdly inadequate. I got a photo of a finger pointing at a light switch, maybe 4 sentences actually specific to my property (a useless assumption no less), and pages of generic copy-and-pasted information completely irrelevant to my specific property. Now, juxtapose this against the tens of pages and photos, with in-depth information on the roof, plumbing, water pressure, cooling and heating, water damage, gutters and much more I received from Axelrad, a week earlier, for 15% less money. A complete asymmetry in service quality. Furthermore, it's 2021 and they only accept cash or check unless they make an exception after extensive back-and-forth (and charge extra)--then they'll charge you on Venmo. I am seriously disappointed in this place. Simply put, it revealed virtually nothing about the property I'm planning on purchasing. Shockingly inadequate. I hope we can come to some resolution, and they can actually give me the level of service I paid for--just in the ballpark would be acceptable at this point. Update -- nope. No resolution. The guy was completely dismissive and blocked my number before I could even respond. Immature and again, made it feel like I got ripped off. I just hired another inspector, because this inspection provided virtually zero actionable information. Bottom line--I paid for a service and didn't receive that service. Extremely poor job--the couple of parts that were even attempted on the report were useless/incomplete. When I sent him a complaint, and requested he return to actually do a proper inspection, he responded with a off-putting messages before blocking my cell number. read more

I used Sunshine Home Inspections for a home I was buying. Thomas was very knowledgeable and attentive to detail. Scheduling and return on report were very quick. I'm extremely satisfied as a customer. I do recommend using them, and will use them again. read more

Hired Thomas for mold and lead inspections required by lender for home purchase. Listened to what I needed and got the job done. Flexible scheduling made him the fastest inspectors for the least amount of money. Glad we made the call. Thomas even took a look around and gave advice on items not requested, which gave me peace of mind about our purchase and the experience overall. Looking forward to getting the report after lab results come in! read more

If I could give this company zero stars I would. I made an appointment a week in advance. I called and had no answer. I then get a text response of "in class. Can I help u? Need inspection?" I just find that to be so unprofessional. I continued the conversation by making an appointment to which he said I would have to accept his 9 year old present at the inspection because he would be out of school. I replied that it would be ok with me. He cancelled the appointment the day before! Completely putting me in a bind. I feel that he obviously didn't want my business and I'll be happy to send anyone looking for home inspections to somewhere other than Sunshine! read more

Thomas was extremely professional as well as knowledgeable. I found his inspection to be extremely thorough. This inspection report had excellent pictures, with explanations of what should have been present vs. what he saw. I would highly recommend his services. read more

5 Stars for sure!!! I recently got a home inspection on a property that I will prayerfully be purchasing soon (pending closing) in Algiers. I had never used a home inspector before so I started to look up reviews on the Internet. I ran across a few different companies who all had fairly positive reviews. However when I got to Sunshine Home Inspections' reviews which were also positive they seemed much more genuine than some of the others. I decided to give the company a call and spoke with the owner Thomas. He was a well spoken gentleman who answered all my questions and assured me that I would not be making the wrong decision if I chose to go with Sunshine. I continue to do some research but ultimately decided to give it a shot. Not only were the reviews genuine they were accurate. Thomas allowed me to follow him around the entire inspection. He went on the roof, under the house, in the house and around it. He found a few minor issues including a leaky and corroded pipe under the house and also that some of the electrical outlets in the home were not grounded. He showed up early and was very informative as we walked through the inspection. Later that day I receive my inspection report (The same day) and was able to make an informed decision on whether or not to purchase this home. I would recommend Mr. Thomas and Sunshine Home Inspections to anyone and everyone looking for a home inspector that is on the side of truth and not that of any real estate agent!!! Thanks Thomas read more

Can't brag enough on how great our experience with Thomas was. Not only did he do a thorough inspection, but he took the time to explain everything he was looking at in terms that we could understand. The pricing is very fair. The process of buying our house was very stressful, so I am grateful for Thomas reducing so much of that stress. Above and beyond the value, it was a pleasant experience - my wife and I enjoyed just talking with him throughout the inspection. I will 100% be recommending Thomas with Sunshine Home Inspections to my friends and family. read more

Highly recommend Thomas of Sunshine Home Inspection. He did a very thorough inspection for mold after Ida damaged our home and answered all of our questions and concerns. Extremely helpful and knowledgeable. read more

Thomas was just fantastic. Stop your searching now, you have found the perfect inspector! I researched multiple inspectors and just taking a look at his website you will feel secure about your choice. His price is very reasonable and his report was so detailed (28 pages for ours). He came thirty minutes earlier than our scheduled appointment time so he could check out the exterior first and then continued to inspect every inch of our new home. After his full inspection, he explained what he found and discussed whether or not it was an area of concern or something that could be easily fixed. By 3pm that same afternoon we had a detailed report in our inbox. read more

Let me begin by saying that my family and I invest in real estate and that we have used Sunshine Home Inspection on several occasions. The owner, Thomas, has been thorough and hard working each and every time. He's probably saved us tens of thousands of dollars through his inspections. Most recently, he came by last Friday to inspect a 4-plex for us. He started under the crawlspace and found a broken, corroded plumbing pipe that will need to be replaced and was symptomatic of the state of the plumbing in general. He then found several places where the roof had been installed incorrectly. The pitch was bad so water would be coming in under the shingles rather sliding off the roof. Thomas pointed out all the problems with the siding that he could find. He checked to see if our circuit breakers were installed correctly and if we had aluminum wiring (we did not, thank God). When he went inside, he checked each outlet to see if they were all wired correctly. Thomas also had a moisture detector. He found several active leaks and gave us his take on what the source might be. He used a level to find out how bad the settling was on the house. He got into the bathroom and found leaks and all sorts of nasty little problems. Thomas also went into the attic. Apparently there was a fire in there. I would have had no idea if not for him doing that. Overall, all I can say is that Thomas is the man. He's extraordinarily good at his job. He's honest, professional, hard working, and he loves what he does. Most importantly, I feel that he really looks out for home buyers and their interests. You can't go wrong if you pick Sunshine. read more

Outstanding communication of all issue as we walked through inspection together. Thomas was very conscious of covid safety harm reduction protocols. Very thorough report as well. Great sense of humor which made inspection even more fun. I highly recommend to anyone needing a home inspector in New Orleans! read more

Stay away from this guy. This guy answered new customer calls during my inspection. He brought his kid to my inspection. It was raining really hard and rather then reschedule, he never inspected the roof. I didn't know till I received the report that night. Then he wanted to charge me again to inspect the roof. read more

Thomas is very knowledgeable person in the area of home inspection. We had multiple properties inspected by him and every single one of them he was spot on. He is always on time for the inspection, if not earlier. I would highly recommend him due to his knowledge in and around the houses. His reports are fairly detailed with pictures and recommendations. He also gets discounted rates on plumbing video, which is a must for New Orleans/ Metairie/ Kenner area.. read more

Sunshine Home Inspection is great! I found them through a google search, and I am so pleased with their work. They immediately responded to my inquiry, answered every ridiculous question I had, and did a great job. Thomas performed an incredibly thorough inspection. He even found a way into the attic that my Dad didn't know was there (and he has lived there for 50 years!). The report comes the same day, and while it is extensive, it is also very clear. I would recommend Thomas and his company to anyone who needs a home inspection. read more

Thomas provided the inspection for a 16 year old home we are looking at purchasing in Mandeville, LA. The day of the inspection he showed up early and got right to work! As he went through the house he thoroughly explained everything to me in full detail. I felt as though Thomas knew exactly what to look for and he pointed out several things that my wife and I would not have noticed. He is a really nice guy, and I was extremely pleased with the work he did. We received our final report before the end of the day with photos and full explanation of everything he found. I would highly recommend Sunshine Home Inspection if you live in or around New Orleans. Thomas is great! read more

Very professional and extremely thorough! Would definately recommend to anyone looking for a great home inspector in the New Orleans or surrounding areas! read more

Thomas was great!!!! would use him for a home inspection again...he was very thorough with his inspection and a very funny guy... would recommend him to anyone read more

We hired Sunshine Home Inspection to check out our home in New Orleans and the inspector did a great job. He was at our house for about 5 hours. We were present for most of the inspection so we knew how thorough he was. Thomas, the inspector, was professional and very knowledgeable. We really got our money's worth! What a deal! I would definitely recommend this company to anyone. read more

Tom, the owner and sole inspector, is absolutely incredible. I felt good from the start when his website invites you to join him during his inspection of the house. It shows that he is confident in his work and other inspectors that I've spoken with don't share the same enthusiasm to let other people join them. When it came time to do the actual inspection, he completely blew me out of the water. This was my first home purchase so I asked my dad (quite the handyman) to tag along with him. We both agreed the inspection was incredibly thorough and Tom left no stone unturned. Even several weeks later when I talk about the house with my dad he always brings up Tom and how impressed he was with the quality of his work, it was that good. The seller's realtor was even making comments that she's never seen such a thorough home inspection before. Tom really took the time to examine and document everything and the report we were given was incredibly detailed. It truly gave me the confidence to move forward knowing exactly what I was getting into and that there would be no surprises down the road. Even after the inspection he has been very prompt in responding to questions and was able to quickly help us out when the mortgage company asked for some additional information about the house. 100% I would use Sunshine Home Inspection again, I can't imagine going anywhere else. read more

Thomas did an inspection and report for my first house purchase just last week and I have to agree with the others, he was great. For the record I'm an architect, so I know my way around a house quite well, and I can confirm that Thomas knows his trade inside and out. I shadowed him for most of the inspection and 1) that didn't seem to annoy him and 2) he was happy to explain situations and issues as we went along, which was really helpful. That way when I got the report it was really just a refresher since he had already spoken with me about everything of substance at the time. Happy to give my full recommendation for Sunshine to anyone in need of a home inspection. Thanks Thomas! read more

Thomas is awesome! I was in a bit of a rush, and he was able to fit me in. He is super thorough, he gets on the roof and under the house. He takes pictures of everything, and he sent his report to me later that day. His price was very reasonable, but I'd be willing to pay top dollar for his work, as he saved me from purchasing a lemon of a house! I'll be sure to go with Sunshine in the future. My advice if you're on the fence: yes, get a home inspection; and yes, go with Sunshine! read more

Thomas recently inspected a home for us. He was extremely thorough and very knowledgeable. I shadowed him as it was my first home inspection experience and learned a lot. Not only did Thomas answer all my questions during the inspection, but he also made himself available after he submitted his report. We ended up not buying the house, but we just bought another house and we wouldn't think of getting another inspector. I highly recommend Thomas. Not only is he a great home inspector, but he's a super nice guy. read more

My wife and I are buying a home for the first time and we were in a hurry to get an inspector in time for all that crazy paperwork that has to be done. Our first call was for a realtor inspector, but seeing as how it was the Thanksgiving week, they were on vacation. Our next call was to Thomas at Sunshine and I tell you I am so glad we did. He came two hours early to get a headstart on the inspection, and was incredibly thorough. He told me all the things he was seeing as we walked through together, and I got schooled on housing codes, meteorology and what felt like every inch of our new home to be. Wonderfully personable and occasionally witty :) I would recommend Thomas for your home inspection - he's not closely associated with realtors, so you know he's not trying to "sell you" the house. Smart guy, good stuff. read more

Thomas did a wonderful job inspecting my new home! As a first time home owner, I was really anxious about the inspection. Thomas was always available for questions, and really put my mind at ease. I'd definitely recommend Sunshine Home Inspections to anyone planning on buying a house. read more

Thomas did a great job - very thorough and provided us with a great list of repair requests for the seller. Talked through everything as he completed the inspection. read more
