Steve was very helpful in helping us determine if there was any additional issues with the home we are buying. He noticed things that I missed when I initially walked through the home. The report provided was easy to read. I would recommend his service.

Very impressed with the thoroughness, the knowledge, and the professionalism of the two inspectors whom we hired to give us a report on the condition of the house my son and I are interested in purchasing. Most of all, they both took the time to answer all our many questions in simple and easy to understand terminology so that we would become thoroughly knowledgeable about anything, especially in regard to safety issues, concerning the house in question. Steve also made it known that he is always available to answer any further questions or concerns that might arise from us or from the people we will be hiring to repair the minor issues. Worth, absolutely, every penny, and I highly recommend his Company, Home Standards Inspection Company to anyone needing to hire a home inspector.read more

Forrest was amazing. I am a realtor and have dealt with many inspectors before , but my aunt MO told me to give them a try for when I was buying my own house. I will definitely be suggesting Forrest in the future and totally appreciate the detailed and binding copy of all the information we needed to make our home buying process so great.

Tim did an excellent job with our inspection. He arrived on time and was quick and efficient while being very thorough. Whole process took around 3 hours and at the end he took the time to go through the results so we could understand each item. Would definitely use them again.

We recommend Home Standards to anyone purchasing a new home! Scheduling our inspection was super easy and they worked to find a convenient time for us. Jim was super detailed and thorough in his report and took the time to walk through all the feedback with us. We never felt rushed and Jim did a great job answering all our questions. Clean, detailed, and easy to work with - exactly what you want when buying a new home!!

Jon was very thorough in his inspection what he covered was more than we expected. We received a printed binder for our copy and went over each thing one at a time. We highly recommend Jon for your inspection needs, he will not disappoint. Thanks again, Jan

Jon has been great to work with and was very professional with all aspects of the inspection. He had a printed binder ready following the inspection. Jon was very thorough and detailed in his report. His report was easy to read and understand. The information provided were useful in determining aspects of the home that needed to be addressed immediately.

Steve and Maureen did a fantastic job walking me through the home inspection and answering any questions that I had. They really laid out all of the information well and made the whole process very easy! I would highly recommend them!

Could not have ask for a more personal/professional service. Paul was much more thorough than I ever thought an inspector could be. The quality of the product/service was beyond compare. We have photos and commentary in an easy to go to binder that will serve us well if questions should arise in the future. Thanks again Paul for a great job.

We had a great experience with Home Standards Inspection Services. I made the appointment via their website. It was easy to find a day and time that worked. A confirmation email was sent later with what to expect. On the day of, the inspector sat down with a list of what was inspected and any issues that were discovered with plenty of pictures. He was very clear about what he did, what he saw and what he expected to see. After, he walked us around the house to visually show everything he encountered and then provided us with both a digital and paper copy of the inspection. He was professional, very thorough, open to questions, and clearly knew what he was talking about. I would definitely recommend working with them. Note: our inspector was Jessie Fisher.read more

They were quick to get our new house inspection scheduled and the online payment was fast and easy. Paul was our inspector, he was very nice and seemed knowledgeable. He pointed out a few minor issues on the house and gave us tips on what we could do to fix them. Luckily there were no major issues and we left happy. Shortly after moving in we found a rotten window in the bedroom. It had obviously not been opened in quite sometime. I contacted Paul and told him about it and also sent pictures. He was very nice on the phone and apologized on missing it. He had us get a quote to fix it and they would cover the cost to repair it. We had Rainbow Glass come out for a quote the guy said it would be a difficult task to repair and new slates would need to be ordered. After several days and phone conversations between our agent, Paul, Jon (vice president) and myself we finally worked out an agreeable arrangement. I am happy with the outcome and I'm glad we picked a small and locally owned reputable company.read more
