We love it when our clients can attend their inspection so that we can interact with them and share all that they will need to know in their new home. It's like a live instruction manual for your house. Thank you for the recommendation and the review. -AmeriSpec, Bloomington office

This was the third time we hired AmeriSpec Home Inspections. We had Kevin as the inspector all three times. He was very knowledgeable and knew his job well. If we ever need another home inspection we would request Kevin again.

Not only do we want to educate our clients about their new home at the inspection, but we also provide a lifetime subscription to HomeBinder. This is like an online filing cabinet for your home and we have included our dynamite Home Manual for every client. This reference and the information attained during the inspection will turn anyone into a "DYI"-er in no time. Thank you for the review and best of luck. -AmeriSpec, Bloomington Office

Rob was a pleasure to work with. He both inspected the house and set up a Radon test. He pointed out not only the concerns and problem areas, but what was good about the house. If I had any questions, he was there to answer. He made thoughtful suggestions on what to change and cost estimates to do so, and what to keep as-is. He was punctual, thorough, and professional. I will definitely recommend Rob to anyone looking to have a home inspection performed!

Excellent. Mark could not have been more thorough, methodical and professional. A very personable guy, he did not get distracted by conversation or comments from others at the inspection. He went over his report thoroughly and forwarded it to us and our realtor promptly, before we ever left the premises. He deferred to two other contractors there who had specific areas of expertise (a roofer and arborist) but still noted in his own report areas of concern he observed with trees and roof. He opened every window, closet and cupboard, ran every faucet, checked every outlet and light, tested every window treatment, ran every appliance through their cycles, tested A/C and furnace and checked for CO. There was no aspect of the home he did not check.

Yesterday John Kaiser inspected a condo I am purchasing. He was professional and knowledgeable, and his explanation of the procedure immediately reassured me that the inspection was worth my money. I appreciated John’s thoroughness and attention to detail, as well as his advice. I felt that he took the inspection of my cheap little two bedroom condo as seriously as he would a huge million dollar home. I will heartily recommend John and AmeriSpec to anyone who needs home inspection services.

Not only will you have a computer generated report with digital photos (no handwritten, legal pad scratch notes here) emailed to you from the inspection, but you will also receive a lifetime subscription to Home Binder. This is essentially an online filing cabinet where we upload your report and you can enter in paint colors, project information and set up maintenance reminders.

Unlike some of the other inspection companies out there, we invite and encourage you to be walking right along with us throughout the entire inspection. This gives you the opportunity to ask questions and receive valuable tips about ALL aspects of the home, not just what the inspector deems important. While an inspector might ignore some common cracking and not point it out in a run-through summary at the end, you might see this and have concerns. We will be right there with you and can address those concerns immediately vs. once you've moved in and notice it. Thank you for the review and we hope you are enjoying your new home. -AmeriSpec, Bloomington office

Response time was amazing! I left a message on Sunday night and was able to get an inspection scheduled for that Wednesday! Dick was the inspector that came out. Being a first time home buyer I was a bit nervous because I didn't know what to expect. He walked me through the whole property pointing things out and showing me different functions of the home. I would 100% recommend.

The inspector was on time and was already on the roof when we arrived. He was cordial and accommodating to our interests. During the course of his inspection, he took out time to point out problems with the property and suggest how to solve or deal with them. Upon concluding his work--which lasted more than two hours--he went over his 26 page report and provided us with a copy. We were extremely pleased with the thoroughness of the inspection, which included a radon test.
