Big purchase... Big decision. Who is going to be your home inspector. I am an"A" rated member of the Better Business Bureau. I belong to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors. A great home inspector will take the time to answer all of your questions and will also give you advice on the upkeep of the home. I always point out deferred maintanence and include it in the report. It makes a great checklist of items that need attention after you move in.
A lot of information will be given to you at the site inspection. An inspector that takes time when they reconcile the report is of utmost importance. The report will be your main tool in negotiating and remembering what was told to you at the inspection. My reports have color photographs with detailed descriptions next to the issues noted. Some people ask why you put detailed descriptions in. Not only does it help you it helps me. Phone calls dont need to be made back and forth trying to figure out what the inspector means regarding items in the report. This allows me more time doing what I do best... inspecting houses.
Communication is another key assett a home inspector needs. If they can't talk to you about the home in a way that you understand it they aren't helping you. Some people have a good understanding of homes, others know very little. It is the home inspectors job to establish what level of knowledge you are at and be able to communicate to you in terms you understand. I have heard many customers who chose me on their second inspection instead of using the inspector that did their previous inspection. It is funny how some comment on the personality of their previous home inspector. With me you are going to get a down to earth family guy who is easy to get along with and is a professional.
I hope I can help you out with your home inspection needs. If you have any questions feel free to give me a call.

Gauge Attributes
Customers can Gauge service providers on the following 10 attributes. Not all attributes will apply to all service providers.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Friendly: No one wants to hear service providers' personal problems. The service provider should be pleasant to be around.
- Responsive to a Customer's Call: Call backs should be made in the same day and the service provider should do what was promised.
- 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.
- Hygiene: The service provider should look clean, smell clean, and wear shoe covers indoors when needed.
- Recommended: Would you recommend this individual or company?
