DAVE DAY PRO HM INSPCTN

unknown

Dave was recommended to me by both my real estate agent and a friend. The fee included a termite inspection by SWAT. I contacted Dave and he was very flexible with days and times. When we got to the inspection Dave had already been there for an hour. Dave did a very thorough inspection and provided pictures and explanations of everything. He was available by phone for any questions and was able to recommend servicemen to fix the things that needed to be fixed. He gave us estimates of how much things should cost to fix. He did an excellent job. This is not the first house we have bought, but it was the best home inspection we have had. It was a very hot day, but Dave took his time in the attic above the garage checking out the insulation and air conditioning. He is not only personable and very helpful, he is experienced, knowledgeable, detail-oriented and professional. He is everything a home buyer or homeowner wants in a home inspector. We will definitely use him again for the next house .

His inspection caused the buyer to back out of the contract. He stated things in his inspection report that were not true. He stated that my roof needed to be replaced in one year. A professional roofer had looked at my roof about 8 months ago and said that I had from 4 to 5 years left on my roof. He stated that I had no power to my electrical outlets. I had power to the outlets until he tripped them. I had used my hair drier and various other appliances about an hour before he arrived. He evidently did not know how to restore the power by finding the GFCI master outlet in the garage. He noted that I had a broken sink stopper in one of my bathrooms. That sink stopper worked one half hour before he arrived because I cleaned the sink that morning. He stated that my pool filter circulation system was not working and that I had bypassed it without fixing it. I had the pool motor, valves and everything else in my pool cleaner assembly replaced two years ago. He apparently did not notice it. He took a picture of the old pool filter circulation system without apparently noticing the new pool filter circulation system, motor, etc. right next to it.
