Ron Walker Property Inspections

I have been hiring Ron for around 5 years, and his work has always been impeccable.

They missed mold growing on the wall behind the hot water heater and the a/c unit in the garage. The big patch of mold they missed was because they didn't move some tiles out of the way set against the wall were the mold was. There was other mold on the wall that wasn't covered up by any tiles that they missed. I ended up with $6,000 bill to remediate and clean out all the vents and airducts and rebuilding the plenum and a/c box because the mold spores got in the a/c.

They missed a patch a mold behind the hot water heater and the mold spores had gotten into the a/c unit. The seller of the home had placed some unused tiles against the wall behind the hot water heater covering the mold but there where mold spores growing on the wall as well as by the a/c unit because the pcp pipes were leaking moisture. We discovered this was an old leak that was not remediated properly because the wall were the mold was was dry. The cost to remediate was $6,000. I had to get rid of the mold and rebuild the a/c box and plenum and clean out the a/c and all the a/c vents. I would of not purchased the house if I would of known about this.

My girlfriend and I are buying our first home. We read reviews on 20 other home inspectors, then called up 5 and grilled them. As a business owner myself I know salesmanship vs honesty. Ron was the most honest and answered all of our questions in a professional manner. On inspection day he showed up early, did a very thorough job, answered all of my questions and taught me a lot about many of the home features that I was completely clueless about. Like the anti-rust sprinkler system, how to maintain the salt-water pool filter/pump system, and why/how the homeowner redid their plumbing (Ron is has a master plumbers certification). His report was very thorough and completed that evening. My realtor even mentioned that he was one of the best in South Florida. The only reason she didn't refer him is because Ron is there for the buyer and the buyer only. He does not fluff a report to ensure the deal goes through which many of the reviews on other inspectors mentioned, especially those referred to us by our realtor. Side Note: I clumsily damaged the home by accident during the inspection. Ron had two experts out there within 48 hours, repaired my mistake, and even showed up again to reinspect it. Ron is the best there is and as long as he is in business, he will be our first choice every time.

We hired Ron Walker Property Inspections to inspect a 4000+ ft residential property we were under contract for. Couldn't say enough great things about the detail, the professionalism, and going the extra mile to make sure I knew exactly what I was buying. Ron and Bryan were detailed, scrupulous, honest, and had a fantastic team to get the job the done. He saved us from some very costly issues that the current home owner ended up paying for, and even backed up his findings through permit searches around that neighborhood. Talk about going the extra mile. Worth every penny. Hire the best, hire Ron Walker.

Ron and his crew were fantastic and surpassed our expectations. Prompt, professional, courteous and extremely knowledgeable, they went over every aspect of the home in detail and provided their findings on the spot, fielding any and all questions we had. We were so impressed with the service we received and also how quickly Ron sent us the final inspection report in writing. Superior company, hands-down.

The inspection went well. It was comprehensive. I had an extra review of plumbing underneath the house. This revealed serious concerns with the drains that would have cost at least $31,000 to fix. I opted not to move forward with the purchase because of these plumbing problems. The inspection also identified numerous other concerns. This company is not cheap but I recommend them because of the solid work. The investment is worth it.

I have done 2 and will keep hiring him. Not the cheapest, not the most expensive, but absolutely thorough and professional. Highly recommend RON.

We have had inspections done for other home purchases, but none as complete and as impressive as Ron Walker Property Inspections. In addition to our 4-point inspection, Ron Walker also lined up termite and septic tank inspections, and also tested our home for mold. Ron Walker and two employees showed up on time and for 2 1/2 hours combed over our entire home, inside and out. They inspected appliances, closets, attics, cabinets, fixtures - if it was in the house, it got looked at. Plus, we received our inspection report the same evening of the inspection. Although Ron Walker is slightly more expensive than other inspection companies, the additional cost is well worth it and relatively minimal considering a home is such a huge investment.

Very professional and thorough job. Would definately hire again if I need another home inspection.

Ron and his team were great! They were on time. They were very thorough. Respectful of the home owners and their property. They answered any questions we had. Their final report was very detailed. And they provided it on the same day! We would definitely use them again.

Excellent. Ron is very professional and timely with his communication. They are very thorough and the report is very user-friendly. The condo looks good online but there major health & safety concerns. I am grateful is able to identify the problems. I highly recommend this Company. A+

From the start Ron was extremely responsive, punctual, and professional. He arrived on time with his team and provided detailed reports within a day. Unfortunately, the seller had turned off the water, so they were unable to inspect the water lines. I would definitely recommend paying a little more for this service as the customer service is worth its weight in gold.

Excellent. Very thorough and professional.

Fantastic! Ron and his guys were polite, knowledgeable, and professional, and went out of their way to explain the home, operation of its systems, and any issues that they had found. The reports they provided were clear and concise. They identified several issues, including a potential plumbing issue that I do not believe all inspectors would have found. I was able to negotiate thousands of dollars cash back at closing as a result of their findings. I engaged with them again to provide the 4pt and wind mitigation reports. They were an absolute delight to deal with; a rare find amongst South Florida businesses. I would absolutely hire them again and would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a quality home inspection.

Excellent work. On time. Knowledgeable. Made suggestions that made sense. Will definitely use them again.

Ron Walker and his staff were excellent during our home inspection on a property in Hollywood for us. We appreciated his detail work and especially the time he took answer all my questions on the property. I highly recommend his services!

They scheduled a time convenient for me. They showed up on time and went around my house checking everything thoroughly. THey offered much support and advise. Very responsible and honest people. Will continue to use them and recommend them.

Incredible...able to access the professionals and not via a third party. Very well versed and detailed report. Set the stage for home-sale negotiations and built the priority of must-do projects after closing.

it went great. actually the 2nd time i have used these guys. Very thorough, polite, professional. Would definitely use them again. Not the cheapest in town, but sometimes you get what you pay for.

There were two teams that inspected the home and provided a very thorough report by the next business day. Payment was easy with online options. I had a few follow-up questions regarding an open inspection from 2005 and Ron quickly provided information and how I could follow-up with the county to resolve.

I have had them inspect 2 houses and a re-inspection for me. Their price is a little high but I believe you get what you pay for. They ended up saving me a couple hundred thousand. With being a remote buyer they did a great job with dealing with me and my proxy. They saved me a lot of money with a house I did not purchase and saved me some money with the house I did purchase. They were able to fix some electrical work so the house could be inspected again. My realtor was very impressed with the guy. They are fair, responsive and competent.

They were on time, did a very thorough inspection and explained to us their findings. Took multiple pictures and provided a very detail report with photos.

My first impression was blown away at the team that arrived. 3 guys all dressed in proper company shirts arrive with some of the latest gadgets in order to properly inspect a home. I knew from the first look that this team was going to inspect every inch of the home we wanted to buy. It was incredible the way one of them specializes in roofs and attics, another all the appliances and structure, while the third guy has over 20 years in the plumping industry. They have an all star team in which they each specialize in certain areas so I know this home will be inspected top to bottom. They instructed me several times to walk around with them so that I can inspect the home with them. This was a nice touch and I felt like I was involved but also learning about my home as we go. They also showed me some repairs that I didn't think were necessary but their knowledge of what will happen if I ignore them also impressed me. I was even given estimates about how much each repair may cost me. It was nice to have a team of inspectors who were very knowledgeable but also friendly to teach me things about a home I never knew. The final impression was just as rewarding as their first as the report was in my email before 5pm the same day. This also wasn't just some slap stick report to satisfy their requirements; this was over 30 pages of information with 300 photos of my home. It took me over an hour just to read everything. Overall Ron Walker inspections is by far the greatest inspection company I have ever used and I used to be a mortgage broker that has seen hundreds of reports come across my desk. I only wish they inspected more items as I wouldn't hesitate to have their team on my side for any transaction. Thanks

A most thorough and informative home inspection for a 2560 sq. ft. 1972 home. Within 24 hours, they provided a 77-page PDF report with pictures, explanations, and even cost estimates for the work that needed to be done. The format of the report included a summary which made it easy to see what was most important in terms of safety and insurance, a major expense, and recommended repairs. The inspectors were very professional and polite. We were able to follow them around as they pointed out problems that they saw. They answered all our questions and offered to be available if we had more questions later. The report was extremely useful and honest. The problems were neither exaggerated nor understated. Highly recommended.
