Emergency Services Offered
Services we offer
Home inspections, commercial inspections, wood destroying insect inspections, radon testing - active monitor. Well water quality testing.
The inspection was thorough, professional, and informative. We are first time home buyers, and we were really lucky to work with Castle. Greg was patient with us as we asked many questions. He explained jargon and the condition of the house with clarity. He walked us through the house and taught us a bunch in the process. Furthermore, Greg was very transparent about his knowledge and the areas where we may need to consult a follow-up specialist (such as a licensed carpenter). We never felt rushed in the process. Overall, we would highly recommend Castle Home Inspection.
Description of Work: Castle Home Inspection completed a thorough home inspection of a 150-year-old home. He also completed a radon inspection.

It was a pleasure to help you! Old houses can have a steep learning curve, but have character that isn't found in a newer home. Thank you for hiring me. I hope the remainder of your transaction goes smoothly. Don't hesitate to contact me if you need anything else. Good luck.

Greg provided an outstanding inspection that was thorough with a high level of detail. We had a complete picture of the condition of the home we were purchasing as well as an understanding of future repairs and modifications that would be needed down the road. Greg was able to identify the various dates of upgrades and modifications to get a sense of the history of the house. He also provided a great explanation of the severity of various observations. We were highly impressed with the overall experience and would highly recommend him to others.
Description of Work: We hired Greg for a new home inspection, pest inspection, and radon testing.

As a former assistant Home Inspector. I must say that Greg provided a good service at a great price. I would hire him again for another inspection. I would have liked more pictures in the inspection report though. There were some pictures. But there were several issues that were discussed and that made the report. But no picture to show said defect or issue. No pictures of the attic spaces showing minimal insulation levels, lack of access, and an issue with the furnace flue. As some examples. There is no need for a picture showing every issue, But if there is an issue with a flue located too close to combustible materials or an attic is unable to be accessed. Include a picture showing the issue. Besides the lack of pictures, I would hire again.
Description of Work: I had a home inspection, a septic dye test, and a wood destroying pest inspection.

Description of Work: Castle took time to explain and let me know a home inspection would not determine the cause of my issue. He could have easily not said and took my $ since I already paid they Angie's List. |He then said to call Angie's List to obtain a refund. |I appreciate his honesty, very professional, and polite. |Highly recommend.

Thanks [Member Name Removed]. Thank you for contacting me, it was a pleasure to talk to you on the phone. I believe in getting paid for valuable work, but I couldn't consciously perform the home inspection, knowing I couldn't give you any more information than you already had. I hope you were able to get some solutions and solace. Feel free to contact me in the future if the need arises.

Description of Work: Castle Inspections was wonderful. We are first-time home buyers, and he was incredibly patient as we asked questions. He was very complete going through the house and made us feel very comfortable during the entire process. He caught a large issue that impacted our negotiations, and the overall cost of the inspections were very reasonable!

Greg was professional and friendly. When I made the appointment he would have come 3 day later but my schedule would not allow it. He took his time and was very thorough. I received the inspection results back promptly. I will definitely use Castle Inspections in the future when we purchase a new home.

Response from Castle Inspections Inc
I never had contact with [members name]. I left him multiple messages during the scheduling process, and even during the emergency. He never returned any calls. I only had contact with [members name], she said she was his friend. Monday morning (the day before the inspection), I had to have emergency shoulder surgery. I called [members name] and called [members name] around 4pm cst, after I was coherent to unfortunately cancel for the Tuesday appointment. I left messages for both to which I got no response. I called [members name] again around 8pm and spoke with her. I told her that I would be more than willing to reschedule for later in the week and offered a deep discount. She said she would talk to [members name] and get back to me about what he wanted to do. It was at that point that she mentioned that they drove in from out of town, but no mention of anyone calling off of work. I felt terrible, but I wouldn't be able to properly drive or perform the inspection. I never heard back. I was very accessible for communication by phone, email, or text. It was an unfortunate situation, but it was an emergency and beyond my control. I did everything I felt I could do to accommodate for the change. I take my clients time very seriously along with my professionalism. I spoke with [members name] many times and at great length during the scheduling process in addition to the listing agent. I find it ironic that I received an F for communication when he never returned any of my messages.

Performed a home inspection for me prior to my putting the house up for sale. I thought Greg was very thorough and appreciated his suggestions and/or alternatives for some work that is needed. Very pleased with Castle Inspections. I won't hesitate to use this company in the future.

Greg was great in every way. We contacted him on a Monday and had the inspection done on a Wednesday. Responded to are voicemail immediately, even was available to texts which is needed these days. We had an 8:30 appointment with him. we arrived at 8:28 AM, he was already there with the whole house opened up and all the lights on. He made sure the furnace was on at the beginning to ensure when we kicked on the a/c unit that we could feel it. He started on the roof and found some things a roofer we had out the week prior didn't see. He then walked around the yard checking the fence, windows, doors, and the deck. He then checked the breaker box and found a few things. He checked the whole inside of the house very thoroughly just as he did the outside pointing out even the most minor issues just so we knew every little detail of our new home. Greg was unbelievable and would absolutely recommend him to anyone. Seemed like a great guy who gave us honest opinions and answers. If you need a home inspector, call Greg, you can't go wrong.
Description of Work: Inspected inside and outside of house, garage and home attic spaces, furnace, air conditioner, appliances, basement, anything and everything you could think of. Great home inspector

Greg was very friendly, informative, and professional. We actually had two home inspections performed by Castle Inspection, the first house we chose to walk away from due to major issues found during the home inspection, the second home we had inspected we decided to purchase. We felt that all aspects of both homes were thoroughly examined and the findings were presented to us in a non-biased and easy to understand way, allowing us to make an educated and informed decision regarding our home purchase. We highly recommend Castle Inspection.
Description of Work: The potential purchase property was thoroughly examined, including exterior roof, attic, all living spaces, and basement. Spaces were inspected for flaws, damage, and proper functionality. Water pressure was inspected, as well as proper working order of appliances and electrical. The home was inspected for the presence of wood boring insects. Furnace was inspected for potential leaks.Structural integrity of the property was inspected.
