Dave was responsive, professional, and provided a thorough home inspection. We felt that we were in good hands, because Dave walked us through all findings and educated us on various outcomes of the inspection. The inspection report was extremely thorough and easy to understand. Dave was punctual for both the appointment and in providing the report, and was excellent at communicating expectations. Our inspection included: full inspection of home, inside and out, as described on the company website; radon testing; infrared testing for insulation. We chose Harmony, because of Dave's professionalism, including responsiveness and many years of experience and certification in the business. We plan to hire Dave again when future inspection needs arise. We also plan to refer Dave to any family and friends looking for an inspector. We enjoyed working with Dave so much and appreciate the high quality level of service.

Dave was absolutely excellent. I couldn't have been happier with his demeanor or the job he did. He was happy to have me and my father at the home the entire time and took the time to answer our questions and go over his findings. He even entertained my father by showing him all his cool gadgets! When he realized the attic seal had not been broken, and we couldn't get a hold of the sellers to get permission to open it, he used his infrared gun to make sure it was well insulated. I had his full report in my inbox by the next morning. The report was extremely thorough and had great pictures and details. I couldn't have asked for a better inspector and I am very happy and confident to be moving forward on my first home purchase. I will definitely be calling Dave in the future!

Dave performed a very thorough inspection of a property which we were looking to purchase. We paid for additional Radon detection, which found we were just over the recommended thresholds. There were a number of items identified which we requested the sellers to repair, which they did. Also, Dave provided a very thorough and detailed room-by-room and area report which I will use for monitoring. I will happily use Dave again for future home purchases. Dave also mentioned he has some referrals for handymen, which I am waiting for responses on. Updated 10/22/2013: We have had issues with the house since we purchased it, so i am revising my ratings. We are still determining what our next steps will be, so i can update my details at a later date and time.

Response from Harmony Home Inspections
This is an unwarranted review. I had replied to the client's concerns the very next day after he had emailed me, and I asked him to keep me posted - as I want to help him in any way possible. Since that time (06/17/13), he has not even reached out to me for advice or support. It is unfortunate that false information can tarnish a reputation that I have worked so hard for. My work ethic is an extension of my inner values, and I am always looking for ways to serve my clients. I will gladly provide email communication to verify that my position is accurate and true.

Called David and he was very professional, knowledgeable and kind. David had an open, easy-going manner that made it very easy to ask him questions about the process. He gave us the date and time we requested and was there promptly on the day of the inspection. David was thorough with his inspection. He was very happy to walk through with us and tell us his professional opinion and educate us on the issues and what to look out for. David said he would have the report to us by the end of the weekend. He was true to his word. We really had a positive experience with him and would suggest him and his services to friends and family.

The 55-page inspection notes included detailed information, along with pictures and several summary pages of major issues. He pointed out several safety issues we hadn't considered. We were extremely pleased with the inspection.
Description of Work: David inspected a lakefront property we are considering buying. He closely examined almost every facet of the property, providing detailed output on problems he detected and alerted us to some areas we just need to monitor. We accompanied him around in the last hour or so of the inspection, and he willingly answered any questions we had.

Dave Klutch did a great job, identifying important issues on both properties. He was thorough and professional and the final reports were good. He is also very nice with good social skills - willing to answer questions after the jobs were complete even though he is clearly very busy.
Description of Work: Dave Klutch provided inspections for us on two properties we were preparing to purchase - the first purchase fell through and then we used him a second time.

Description of Work: Dave has completed 3 home inspections for us during 2012. Each and every one was completed to our satisfaction! He is very thorough and I would hire him again! Items that were found on one inspection - we were glad we found out as it was a very substantial problem with siding. Due to those findings, we decided to not buy this home. We are glad we waited, as we found the perfect home for us 3 months later.

Dave was punctual and very easy to work with. We don't have much knowledge when it comes to home repairs and he walked us through everything. He answered our questions and gave us wonderful advice. He agreed to come and check on the house to see if the items needing attention were taken care of. The report he generated for us was easy to read and understand. He also told us many times to call or email if we had any questions. We're so impressed with the level of service he provided and would whole-heartedly recommend him to anyone looking for inspection services.
Description of Work: Dave came to do an inspection at our new home. He went through the entire property, top to bottom, outside and inside. He also used a slick infrared tool to show us where heat was escaping.

I actually joined Angie's List just to find an inspector. Let me say, I was not disappointed. Everything went well. Dave was a little late, but he was still able to complete the inspection in the allotted time. He made sure he didn't rush, but instead took extra pictures and used them later when compiling his report. I have shown the report to many family members and they were all impressed as they have never seen an inspector take that much time to pay attention to detail. He left the property of the inspection and in less than 11 hours he completed a 35 page inspection report (with 2 more ahead of ours)! I would wholeheartedly recommend Dave for any of your home inspection needs. He is very friendly, listens, goes above and beyond what most do, and mostly, he just is the best value. Least expensive and best?! The only issue you may have is getting him. He is always busy :) Thank you Dave for a wonderful (not at all painful) first home inspection. I will use you again when the time comes.

Saw Harmony Home Inspections was located in the northern suburbs. Checked Angie's List and saw strong recommendations. Received an immediate response on first contact. Dave was flexible and worked with our agent to find a suitable inspection date/time ASAP. Provided some general questions to Dave via e-mail before the site visit and he gave detailed, helpful responses. On site, Dave was completely thorough and professional. Total inspection took 3 hours. I met him on site with some further questions to which he gave thoughtful, considered responses. Dave provides reports via an on-line system which I really appreciated... ability to access from anywhere, anytime... even at some point in the future, should I lose my local copy. The report itself is well organized, descriptive, lots of photos. Dave is one of those people that is so proficient, detail-oriented and customer-focused that it's scary; but that's just what you want in a person doing home inspections.

Dave was extremely professional and very informative. He arrived slightly early,was very organized and very thorough. He explained everything we needed to know and was very patient with us. We asked what seemed to be hundreds of questions and he never once seemed rushed or preoccupied. His report was factual, to the point and easy to follow. His report reflected shortfalls involving the outside of the structure. Those issues fell under the scope of the town house association that the sellers were members of. We have not had prior experience with a home owners associations before. Knowing and understanding what issues of the house needed attention and who's jurisdiction that falls under was something we had not considered before. The inspection report brought this idea to light. It gave us a chance to find out what the particular association was like. The report was completely non biased. The report was well worth the money. We feel as though we know the house well. Dave had the report to us via email in a short amount of time....which was during the 4th of July weekend. We will keep his card to pass on to others.

I called Dave from HHI on a Tuesday evening and spoke to him personally about doing an inspection on our future home. I was hoping he could do the inspection on a Saturday, as my husband was out of town until Friday, and I really wanted both of us to be at the inspection. Dave was very accommodating, and made sure I knew he didn't charge extra for Saturday service. He requested that I fill out a form online to give him some preliminary information on the home (great website, btw), and let me know that he would contact me within 24 hours to confirm the inspection time. He did as promised, and the inspection was arranged for Saturday. I was surprised at the $290; it was $100 less than a quote I had received from a different inspector for a smaller home, and a town home at that. Dave said the inspection would be from 2-5PM, and requested that we arrive at about 4:30, but also stated we could come earlier if we liked. When we arrived at about 3:30PM, Dave was hard at work. He greeted us and shook our hands. He let us know what he had done so far, and what he had left to cover. He asked us if we had any questions at that time. Throughout our time there, even when he was working, he would call us over to show us something. He was very friendly and professional. At the end of his inspection, we did a walk-through, where he pointed out the positives and negatives of the home. The following morning, he sent us a link to the complete report online, with clear photos, etc. He also provided us with an excellent book on home maintenance. He made it clear that he wanted us to contact him at any time if we ever had any questions about the home, or needed help finding resources, etc. Dave was fantastic, friendly, and met my expectations 200%. I really feel like we got great service at a great price, and I will recommend him to all of my friends.
