I did not appreciate the inspector showing up at my residence 1 hour early at 8am just because he…read moreis in a different time zone. Even with a lack of communication, it should be understood that this home is MINE, and does not belong to your inspectors. They are not entitled to come in my home any time just because they were hired by buyers. I did not appreciate that he had no respect for PRIVATE PROPERTY. The inspector allowed the buyers to bring a group of family members in four separate cars into my home. They treated my house like a public facility--using my personal toiletries, towels, and bathrooms without permission. I did not appreciate that no one was told to STAY IN THEIR CAR. How many onlookers does your staff need in an inspection??? I did not appreciate the said unwanted family members scraping their boots on the sidewalk before entering MY CLEAN HOME as if the home was already theirs and they could come and go as they pleased. They were obviously not helping the inspector with anything, they were just at my home to relax and invade my privacy. Most alarmingly, I discovered at 7:00 PM that my refrigerator/freezer had been shut off at the breaker. This level of carelessness could have resulted in significant property damage / food loss. When I was finally able to read the end result inspection list to my home buyers, it was noted that 2 breakers in the kitchen were not working, The inspector, Mark, shut the BREAKER OFF TO THE WHOLE KITCHEN, then requested that a licensed electrician come and fix them. I AM AN ELECTRICIAN. Wow ! Is this how you drive away home buyers ??? With stupidity? I am a licensed IBEW electrician. Would I honestly live here 11 yrs with broken outlets ??? And I really did not appreciate the inspector, Mark Ballge, allowing his clients, the buyers, and added family members, who did NOT OWN MY HOME, to come in and make themselves comfortable, forcing and wasting another extra hour of time into MY heavy schedule. They were not invited by ME into MY HOME and I should have been warned about this set up thru my realtor. Once again, they should have BEEN TOLD TO LEAVE. You have hired DISRESPECTFUL AND INCOMPETENT EMPLOYEES; disrespectful to HOME OWNERS, incompetent to home buyers, and I would never use your service or recommend it.

Would definitely use again.

It's obvious their decades of fixing and flipping homes and running a construction business has given them exceptional, real world skills way beyond any other inspector I've ever worked with.

Every interaction with Celeste was frustrating from her inability to understand how to send a text…read moremessage to my phone instead of my email, which she blamed me for, to her inability to answer simple questions like what the pricing of her inspection was without needing an extremely lengthy conversation in between my appointments. When I tried to explain that I only needed answers to very simple questions she became confused and continued talking. She struggles with being concise as well as polite. Despite the frustrating phone call, I greeted her kindly and went through with the inspection and at the end she told me that I was being rude because I didn't want to have an unnecessarily long discussion about what her pricing was. I just wanted simple answers. My realtor was so shocked because I had been kind to her during the inspection that she actually called me rude to my face that he was embarrassed and apologetic that he had recommended her. I would warn other realtors to take caution for the sake of their clients and customer relationships. And I hope for her sake she learns to be more curious, FAR more concise and a better listener.
