Getting your first home inspection report is a nightmare because it covers every little issue - things you never notice! But Ian did a great job explaining everything and when he sensed I was getting anxious and overwhelmed at the idea of buying the house managed to calm me down and help me be more realistic. He was great to work with, and my cat featured in a few of his inspection photos, which was wonderful! read less

I was not able to be at my inspection in person but he called me immediately upon finishing at the house and walked me through the key items. Once I received the inspection report, he was available several times to follow up on my questions and was very responsive. The report is great as well, very thorough, easy to navigate and easy to share. In working with Ian, it makes you feel like he is someone you've known and trusted for years even though just met. Would definitely use again. read less

Ian arrived promptly and spent several hours thoroughly inspecting the home. He was very professional and friendly throughout the process. When he finished, he gave us a verbal report on his findings and provided tips and suggestions for addressing the issues he found. He even gave us a suggestion of where we could find a good dinner nearby. His complete written report came the next morning and was very detailed. We would highly recommend him for anyone needing a thorough and detailed home inspection report. read less

He inspected a project house for us. First he went out of his way to accommodate our short time frame. Then he did a very thorough inspection, provided a detailed report (on the same day!) and took a long time to go over each point with us on the phone (before the report even was sent). His integrity is exceptional. It's very impressive that he offers a warranty on his work! I will recommend him to anyone who needs an inspection in the Southwest area of Michigan! read less

In Michigan there is no requirement to be licensed or educated in Professional Home Inspections. I choose to be a Nationally Certified and Indiana and Illinois state Licensed Professional Home Inspector because I believe education and licensing are important. I’m also a proud member of the International Association of Home Inspectors (InterNACHI) and the Certified Commercial Property Inspectors Association (CCPIA).
