Mr Crofutt was timely and well informed. Took his time explaining his findings during and after the inspection. The home inspection was not complete until Mr Crofutt was satisfied that I had all of my questions answered. The report was in depth, including building codes and photos. Very please with my results. Thanks Erby

As first time home buyers, we wanted to make sure we choose a quality inspector who would work diligently on our behalf. After calling many inspectors who wouldn't go on roofs or in crawlspaces, we finally decided on Erby. He was very thorough in his inspection, and wanted us along on every part of it. He never made us feel rushed, or like we had stupid questions, but rather spend time explaining how things worked (or how they should work), what kind of fixes we were looking at, and helped us to differentiate major problems from minor ones. He went on the roof, into our attic and into the crawl. We left feeling like we had a complete inspection and will definitely recommend Erby in the future.

Erby was the best inspector we could have had I believe. Erby is very through and knows what he is doing. I would recommend him to anybody.

Mr. Crofutt was terrific and very professional. I would recommend that all buyers get a home inspection before buying your home.
- V.T., Bowling Green KY, April 2011

We thought you did an excellent job on our inspection. We were very pleased with your thoroughness and the time you took to explain things during the inspection process. We enjoyed your company and the 3 1/2 hours went by so fast! Thank you again and we will definitely recommend you to anyone in need of a home inspection.
- D.S., Florence KY, November 2010
Mr. Crofutt, Thank you very much for the time that you spent with me during my home inspection. I now feel more confident in myself as a first time homeowner. I really appreciate the thoroughness of the inspection and all of the things that you taught me about owning a house. It was a pleasure doing business with you! Taryn H.

Thank you again Erby for coming out to inspect the house on Easter because of my time constraints. Will definately use again and highly recommend B 4 U Close Home Inspections!

I appreciate the thoroughness of the inspection and the knowledgeable recommendations given. Thanks!
- J.T., Frankfort KY, March 2010
Actually, we didn't have any idea what was involved in a house inspection. We were certainly impressed with all that you did and the things that you did inspect. We are much more confident now that our decision on this property is a good one. Thanks! Wayne & Sandy
- W.M., Stamping Ground KY, February 2010
Thank you again for a very thorough inspection. You always take great care of my clients!
- N.C., Georgetown KY, January 2010
I highly recommend Mr. Crofutt. He performed a thorough inspection and submitted his report for our review the same day. I also strongly recommend attending the inspection since Mr. Crofutt can show the buyer many important items he identifies during the review. Overall, Mr. Crofutt provided excellent service.

Gauge Attributes

Customers can Gauge service providers on the following 10 attributes. Not all attributes will apply to all service providers.

  1. Punctuality and Timely Completion: No one likes to wait or have large windows of time where service providers "might" get to them. No one likes the job to drag out because of the service provider's other projects or if it becomes apparent that the SP did not plan well.
  2. Workmanship: No one likes shoddy work, shortcuts, or tradesmen who take advantage of the customer's lack of awareness of what is good quality work.
  3. Responsibility: Many home owners do not wear shoes in their home and service providers should wear covers over their shoes when necessary. SP's should not travel into rooms that are not in the work scope. They should not use the toilet without asking. If the SP soils or breaks something, they should try to replace it.
  4. Professionalism: A Professional does not try to add unnecessary work to the contract. Nor do they try to make themselves look good by demeaning their competition or by discussing religion or politics. Professionals stand behind their price and make the experience pleasant with the customer.
  5. Cleans Up Daily: Customers like to know that each day when service providers leave the room, it is in a broom swept condition, meaning nothing laying around loose, dangerous, all cords are rolled up, and trash or debris is contained or removed. SP's should clean up at the end of the job.
  6. Friendly: No one wants to hear service providers' personal problems. The service provider should be pleasant to be around.
  7. Responsive to a Customer's Call: Call backs should be made in the same day and the service provider should do what was promised.
  8. Well Organized: Generally speaking, from start to finish, the process went well, any concerns were addressed or corrected, and the repair or project ended well with everyone satisfied.
  9. Hygiene: The service provider should look clean, smell clean, and wear shoe covers indoors when needed.
  10. Recommended: Would you recommend this individual or company?
