He went through all the various steps that he did and then he told me how I could do it myself in the future. He went through all of the things like the closets and everything and told me that if I wanted to fix it how much it would cost. He didn't give any recommendations to any particular company. He was very helpful. He was on time.

I was very pleased with Dennis and will utilize him again if the need arises.
Description of Work: Dennis was polite and professional. He distinguished himself by being very through and in addition to providing the straight forward feedback also provided information on the severity of each observation and if immediate action was warranted or to keep an eye on the situation. Dennis answered all questions and followed up with written feedback and a drawing.

It went very well. I made an appointment with Mr. Sieg for two days after I called him. He showed up on time and carefully looked over the interior walls of the house and the foundation. He felt the foundation was in good shape and the problems I had with the cracks were basically cosmetic. He answered all my questions and sent me a detailed report in the mail.
Description of Work: I had a some cracks in walls and 2 doors that periodically I would have trouble closing. I wanted to do some concrete work around the outside of my house and I wanted to make sure the foundation was sound before I had the work done.

The realtor's house inspector identified shortcomings but was not an engineer. After buying the home I had problems. Dennis thoroughly inspected and took plenty of time to explain in detail and answer all questions. I wish I had used him rather than the realtor's inspector - I would have been much better informed. Luckily, what Dennis found that the prior inspector did not find allowed me to make corrections without major expense. Excellent and knowledgeable.

Dennis was very friendly and professional; the visit consisted of the through inspection of the whole house, basement to attic, with a verbal explanation of all the details. A written report followed a few days later. Overall an excellent experience.
Description of Work: Dennis performed a full house inspection; focused on all necessary and optional problems in structural repair. He spent approximately 1.5 hours explaining fully the problem areas and the specifics that we needed to bring the house up to code and those that might be desirable. He was friendly and very knowledgable. He then sent us a full written report a few days later. The price was reasonable and the whole experience very positive.

He replied in a prompt manner and was very timely. He asked me not to tell him why I call but t let him finish his inspection first. He did a through inspection and even commented on things that I needed to do to make sure my deck was safe in the future. Additionally, he fixed my garage door. I had been having trouble with it and he showed me how to make ti work properly. Actually, that was worth his trip by it self. So when he finished his inspection he asked why I wanted to come out. He took his time and answered all of my questions.

Dennis was called at 3pm and was standing in my driveway at 5pm the same day. He spent a solid 2 hours in review of the structure. He did a great job of keeping the solutions in terms the average home owner could understand. He gave me his recommendations on sight and followed up with a full written analysis in a few days. Very professional and down to earth guy that I would absolutely recommend to a friend.
Description of Work: Structural assessment and review of deteriorating foundation. Full written report and analysis for correcting the problem was given as a matter of follow-up. Additionally, full review of grade and slope around foundation was reviewed.

Dennis came out a day after we got 8 inches of snow and was on time. He was extremely professional and performed a very thorough evaluation of our very old house that's in need of some major renovations. He took his time, did not rush us, was very personable, friendly, and honest. He also pointed out things that we could do to save some money, some helpful pointers, and told us which repairs were necessary and which weren't. He even dropped a business card in the mail as a referral to a professional who could give us an estimate on the repairs as well as perform them. He was great and we are so very appreciative to have him! Would most definitely recommend him to our friends and family! Thank you Dennis!!!

I had used Dennis for the home inspection on my old house 13 years ago, & was so impressed that I specifically looked for him again. The 1st time he not only explained his findings, but how some of the specific mechanics of the house worked. Very pleasant person, & was able to schedule me in on a Saturday on short notice. He showed up before I did & we chatted for a bit. He then took about 3 hrs. to inspect 3300 sq. ft. of a 1916 house in Brookside, & spent another hour walking us through the house to explain his findings. He strongly suggested that we get a termite inspection, & gave us a good referral (JMH), whose services were also very satisfying. I think that the seller's agent was also impressed, as she asked for some of his business cards when he was finished. Promptly received a full inspection report within a few days.
Description of Work: Full house inspection for a contracted purchase. The price was higher than normal due to there being 2 different heating systems to inspect (boiler & 2 furnaces), which was explained to me on the phone beforehand. Thorough inspection completed, received an easy-to-read report via email just a few days later with a mailed copy soon after.

My husband met him here, but he was very responsive on the phone. He came on time. My husband appreciated his comments; he's in engineering as well so he understood the lingo. My husband was very pleased. He's unbiased; that's why we hired him. If we went through a foundation company, my opinion is then you don't know if they're trying to help themselves, or if they're trying to help you -- we wanted an unbiased opinion and that's what we felt this gentleman could do for us. I asked him if he would recommend anybody if we did have a foundation problem, and he said no because that's not his job. He let's you know from an engineering standpoint what's wrong. He might have some recommendations but we weren't going to have to have any foundation work done.
Description of Work: We had some cracks in our foundation and we wanted an unbiased engineer to look at it and see what we needed to do to correct it. He came out, measured inside and outside, and sent us a report with drawings and recommendations on what we needed to do.

Dennis came out the day after I called. He said that the wall had moved inward due to excessive runoff causing the I-beam to punch thru the concrete cap protecting the end of the I-beam. He advised having it repaired and also discussed with me how to slope the run-off away from that wall. He took his time and was very, very thorough.
Description of Work: I-beam support was showing thru a hole in the basement wall. I didn't know if the beam had shifted, the house had shifted, the wall had shifted or what.

He returned my call quickly and was able to come out within days. My husband is the one who actually met with him, but he said he was very thorough and told him exactly what needed to be done. Our house turned out to be structurally sound, and he recommended regrading under the deck and maintaining the slope of the yard at the south wall. He gave us the business card of someone we could contact to seal the cracks in the foundation wall, and mailed us a 3-page report detailing his findings and recommendations.
Description of Work: Inspected cracks in our foundation, a crack in our upstairs vaulted ceiling, and poorly closing doors to see if there are any structural problems with out house. He checked the gutters and yard slope away from the house as well.
