After being in the house for less than 2 months, I have found multiple items that were not discovered/reported during the home inspection such as a major roof leak resulting in water damage to the floor and walls, a leaking toilet resulting in floor damage and many other smaller items that have required time, money and contractors to repair that I would expect to have been found by a home inspector. I am very disappointed with these discoveries after less than 2 months.

The inspection report was easy to understand, and photos were provided to support the findings. I was not pleased that they didn't report dry rot in the basement as a result of previous water damage.

They were very thorough and the information that they gave me about the house was very detailed just to know if there was anything wrong or if there was, which in this case there wasn't, it would have been on the report.
Description of Work: We used Certified Home Inspections of Northern Indiana LLC for home inspection services on the condo that we bought.

Description of Work: We scheduled the home inspection during the discussion phase regarding the potential purchase of a house that was less than 1,000 sq ft in size with only a cement 1/2 basement area. The home inspection failed to identify that the owner/seller had bed bugs. We did not find this information out until after the home was purchased. For $350, we do not feel that the home inspection was done in a responsible manner. It cost over $1,000 to obtain a credible heat-based bed bug treatment.

The report I received was very detailed and professional included photographs of any areas of concern. In general was very pleased with the thoroughness and time he took to do a complete home inspection. Would recommend them to anybody looking for a home inspection.
Description of Work: Called on CHI to inspect a house built in 2005 I was ready to purchase . House was 1500 Sq Ft,. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, with finished basement, wooden deck, and attached two car garage. Will was the person that performed the inspection. He was very thorough and spent just over 3 hrs inspecting the home. Inside outside, around, Top and bottom. I was present during most of the inspection and he was more than happy to answer all the questions I had. He climbed on the roof, under the crawlspace, inside the attic which was dark and full of blown in insulation. Had some neat instruments for detecting the moisture content of walls, as well as other standard instruments for checking the electrical.

The company has a user friendly site and communicates well. Will was professional and courteous. He walked us through problem areas and even replaced a blown fuse in the furnace so he could check it out. Was greatly impressed. Got the home inspection report the next day and the radon test the following day. They sent copies to both us and our realtor.
Description of Work: They did a whole house inspection and radon testing.

Smooth, professional and detailed
Description of Work: John did a very complete inspection of a potential new home, which we did end up purchasing. He was very thorough and detail oriented. As I had the luxuary to be there for the inspection each step was explained in detail and all questrions answered. John also demonstrated the correct operation of the most critical systems and made very good suggestions for future improvements all backed by sound logic and experience. Scheduling was a breeze with Dawn keeping me informed all the way thru the process.

I should note at the start -- both homes were vacant. Both times Will arrived well before the scheduled inspection to go through the house and get a feel for it. For the second house, he actually arrived a few hours in advance so he could give the roof a thorough review following the day's rainstorm. He went through every room, tested plumbing over time (leaving water running while he reviewed other areas), and every step of the way pointed things out to me, offering suggestions on things to consider to improve safety or lower utility costs, well above and beyond the sort of thing that ends up in the final report. It was very thorough -- we were there for several hours (3 and a half on the first house, probably 5 or 6 at the second, not counting the 2 hours he was there before I arrived) on both occasions. Will knows his stuff very well. I received the inspection report as promised and was wowed at how detailed it was, and how easy to work with. Everything was nicely labeled with photos and arrows pointing to the problem areas within the photos. I've seen inspection reports from a few friends homes in the area, and none of them were anything close to CHI's. While they're certainly not cheap (but then, no home inspector is), they're excellent, and I received a solid value for my money.
Description of Work: Will Miller from CHI inspected two different houses for me. His thorough, professional inspection of the first house was a major factor in my deciding not to purchase it, saving me from a probable money pit that had a listing full of inaccuracies. His equally detailed inspection of the second house reassured me that it was a safe purchase, and any serious money I lose on it will be by choice. The price I quoted above was the $309 inspection of the first home plus the $419 inspection of the second, larger home and the secondary dwelling on the property.
