Bob Kingsley with Premier Home Inspections is absolutely wonderful. He was recommended by my…read morerealtor but do not let that scare you away from using him as an inspector! He actually found several problems that could sink the contract I have on a house if they decide not to fix them (this shows how honest he is and that he isn't going to lie to help somebody "make a sale"). He was very thorough and let me follow him throughout the entire process. He included me in every step by telling me what he was looking for, what he was finding, and explaining everything in a way that I could understand. I had multiple questions and he answered all of them without making me feel as though I was bothering him; it really felt as though he was there for me and that he enjoys the work he does. After the inspection he sat down with my realtor and me to explain everything in detail, gave me a copy of his report with all the notes he made, and told me what problems were the most serious versus which ones were not as big of a deal. Bob also told me to call him at any time, even after I have purchased the home and moved in if I have any questions. He told me if he could not recall the walkthrough concerning my question that he would come back to the house in order to answer it better. I could not be happier with my home inspection and I will recommend him to others!

He doesn't like it when you ask questions. He does not want the buyer to be present during inspection. To me, this is a sign that he is not comfortable dealing with customers, and doesn't want to be questioned in his work. He showed up an hour early without telling us. We had to ask more than once for him to get a ladder and look under ceiling where there had been a leak. He wouldn't do it himself. His son did this and my husband did this. When I complained at a later date, he yelled at me and hung up on me. We do NOT recommend.

Major…read moredamage to the garage was missed after paying several hundred dollars for the inspection and I was simply told that no inspector catches everything and the sellers should have disclosed it so it is on them and not Larry. A major plumbing issue was missed because a table had been placed in front of it and Larry chose not to look around it. Please learn from my mistake of hiring this inspector for something that cost a lot of money and shouldn't have been that difficult in the first place.

Warning -- please read before hiring a home inspector…read more Before choosing a home inspection company, make sure you understand exactly what they do--and don't--inspect. I bought an older home "as-is" and expected a thorough, safety-focused inspection. What I received was a bare-minimum, checklist-style review that failed to identify major issues. Within 10 days of moving in, I faced serious electrical failures, plumbing problems, and even sewage back-up flooding that damaged new carpeting. None of these issues were mentioned in the inspection report. Electrical: * Inspectors don't test outlets with items plugged in, which I didn't know. My dishwasher outlet later failed and triggered major electrical problems. * The electrical panel only got a visual check, yet soon after move-in, it began sizzling and partially failed. * My home has zero GFCI outlets--an obvious safety concern--yet the report claimed they had been "reset". Plumbing: * Plumbing was mostly inspected visually. My main line had tree roots at the clean out drain cover, which caused a stoppage in the primary bathroom shortly after moving in. This caused flooding the bathroom and damaging new carpeting. Had the cover been removed vs only the location being noted, I would have known about the issue. What I learned: A standard inspection is extremely limited, especially for older homes. I should have unplugged the dishwasher and garbage disposal so all outlets could be tested and requested specialist inspections. At the time of inspection, the home was vacant and fully accessible. Although the company's owner contributed to some plumbing repair costs (which I appreciate), I still feel the inspection was far below what is advertised on their website. If I could redo the process, I would hire licensed electricians, plumbers, and HVAC contractors for full safety evaluations. The extra cost would be worth the peace of mind.
