As a home buyer, the greatest benefit I could hope for is Peace of Mind. Kevin Staggs and WIN Home Inspection provided exactly what I hoped for. Kevin worked from rooftop to crawl space. He checked the obvious and the obscure. This will be the first time I owned a home outside of California. As I am not familiar with the requirements of seasonal extremes, Kevin pointed out items that had been "Winterized" and what was needed to be functional in Spring. When Kevin was finished, he walked me through the house and reviewed each section in the report, making note of items that are in need of attention and often how to correct them. I got lucky buying a house in good shape. If that were not the case, Kevin would have provided me with what I needed to know and what needed to be done. And in the end, I'd have Peace of Mind. read more

I bought a house in Tennessee and the inspector that the realtor sent to inspect my home overlooked some major problems. There was blue painters, taped, wrapped around the vent that was supposed to exhaust outside. I pointed this out to him and he said don't worry about it. It's just cosmetic. If you don't like it you can take it off. Well, it turned out that the heating system was completely done illegally. When I moved into the house the first night that I spent here with the heater on, I got very ill and my dog got very ill. I had to take her to the emergency room the next day and I had to go to urgent care. We were both suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning. I had a heating company come out. They immediately shut it down and said that they could not turn it back on until it was brought up to code. As time went on, I found many other things that he overlooked. The plumbing in the main bathroom was put together completely wrong when I took a bath it flooded the garage. There was a room in the basement when it rained it flooded. The whole back of the garage flooded on the first rain. I had to have an electrician come out and fix some of my breakers. They had them taped so they wouldn't pop. One of the major beams that holds up the corner of the patio was not anchored to the cement. So to fix everything and bring it up to code has cost me over $10,000. read more

My mother recently purchased a home in Columbia, TN and unfortunately our real estate agent suggested Kevin Staggs at Win Home Inspection. Kevin, who presented himself as a confident and knowledgeable expert, pointed out all of the obvious and mostly minor defects, yet failed to identify a very serious and potentially life threatening issue. Kevin neglected to check the heating system, that was literally being held together by painters tape and looked pretty dodgy. When my mother brought it to his attention, he disregarded her concern and said it was fine, only cosmetic and not a problem. Turned out, the exhaust system was illegally patched together and there was a serious carbon monoxide leak. In addition, he failed to notice there were no smoke or carbon monoxide detectors installed in downstairs of the house where the heating system is located. As a result of Kevin's oversight, my mother and her dog suffered carbon monoxide poisoning after spending her first night in the house with the faulty heater running. After a visit to emergency, she figured something was not right with that taped up exhaust system and called a heating and air company out to have a look. They were shocked by the situation and confirmed there was a carbon monoxide leak that should have been caught by the home inspector. They shut the system down immediately and made it clear it was functioning illegally and extremely dangerous. They confirmed that she could have died from the exposure, and was lucky to be alive. The cost to repair and to bring the heating system up to code was over $10,000. Had this been caught during inspection, the previous owners would have been responsible for the repairs. I reached out to Kevin about this situation and offered a solution, but he never called me back. read more

Kevin was recommended by our realtor. We are in the process of relocating to TN from out of state. Between the super tight real estate market and COVID-19 it's been literally impossible to shop for a home in person. Hence Kevin's input was critical to put us at ease the home we purchased was in good shape. After working with multiple inspectors over the years I can say without question that Kevin is excellent. He inspected, then met with us over FaceTime to review and show us live where he had concerns. It was clear from our conversation he knows his stuff. The report arrived on time and was well organized and informative. Overall we were very happy with Kevin's service and recommend him to others without hesitation. read more

In buying our house in TN from out of state, we were referred to WIN/Kevin through our realtor. It has been years since we have purchased a house and the sheer amount of paperwork and people involved is crazy. Having said that, we received the home inspection within days of making our offer and it was extremely comprehensive. So much so, that I am looking at my existing house with new eyes prior to listing it for sale. Kevin's inspection included lots of pictures and detail which made for an interesting conversation while trying to determine how to proceed. My realtor suggested I call and speak directly with Kevin regarding any questions I had about the house and the condition it was in. I left a message and surprisingly heard back from Kevin within the hour. He took the time to answer all my questions and reassured me that the house was in good condition. Prior to ending the conversation, he gave me additional resources and said he'd be happy to help in any way he could as we move through this process. Would have no hesitation in recommending Kevin or Win Home Inspection! read more
