Erik was professional and extremely informative. In addition to doing the inspection he gave us lots of tips and tricks that we will use in the future as first time home owners. Will definitely recommend his services to friends and family in the future.

It was great -- Erik was responsive via phone and was flexible to appointment change needs. On the day of the inspection, he was prompt and got straight to work. He was friendly, and gave detailed and easy to understand explanations of everything he was seeing, photographing along the way. He was personable, thorough, knowledgeable, and gave thoughtful explanations when asked followup questions. I believe he gave practical and realistic advice, offered to be available for any followup questions, and I'd be more than happy to recommend him/Iron Homes Inspections or use him again myself if needed.

Erik's performed pre-drywall and final inspections for our home as it was being built. He quickly responded after his inspections with reports, including pictures detailing any identified problems. These reports were shared with the developer, allowing for quick resolutions of problems. Erik was pleasant to work with and I have no hesitation to recommend him for anyone in the NC triangle area.

We used Iron Home Inspections for a pre dry wall inspection and the final inspection of a new construction home. Erik does a great job, he is very detailed and take his time which result in a very thorough job. He patiently answered all my questions and as someone not familiar with construction terms I had many. He explained the work and estimated amount of time needed for the contractors to address the items he found lacking. He communicated directly with our PM to arrange for the first inspection and also to share his findings. His reports are detailed with pictures and suggestions on how to address the issues. He pays special attention to safety hazards and as a mom of little kids this was greatly appreciated. He also provided valuable information on how to maintain our new home. Always on time and available to answer our follow up questions over the phone. We are very happy with Iron Home Inspections and plan to use them again before our 12 month new home warranty expires.

Erik (Iron Homes Inspection) performed a thorough home inspection on our new home in November 2017. He answer questions patiently and clearly, and was very detailed and meticulous in his report. He was good natured and did not rush through his job. He gave the impression that he enjoys his work and enjoys talking with the people he helps. He followed up quickly and helped us as we asked about requesting services and/or contributions from the sellers. Later, when I had specific questions two months after the inspection, he spoke with me over email and clearly remembered specifics about the property. He then agreed to stop by the house to check out concerns in the crawlspace and answer questions over the phone once again. This helped my wife and I make smart decisions about future work on the home. Erik did not over charge, did not charge for the follow up visit, and we found the services to be of GREAT value. Thanks and would enthusiastically recommend!

Erik was quick to respond to my call, and arrived promptly for the appointment. He was courteous, easy to talk to and very professional! The inspection lasted more than 2 hours, and Erik was very detailed in his work. He kept us informed of what he found at each stage, and took the time to answer questions and explain the importance of what he was seeing. The report he sent was very detailed, and he included some additional documents that were very helpful. He was great at helping us put potential repairs into perspective, and we both felt very confident in the work he did for us. We would recommend Erik Raudsep/Iron Homes Inspections without hesitation!
Description of Work: My husband and I are planning to have our home renovated, including an expansion of the master bedroom/bathroom. The house is a 1960's ranch that he has owned for 15 years, so we wanted to know up front whether there might be any unexpected repairs that would impact our budget for the work we're planning to have done.

Erik was outstanding. He did a thorough inspection of the house we were looking to buy and looked everywhere, finding things everywhere he went. He showed no regard for the time he was taking, only the job he was doing. He gave us a thorough report and was even willing to amend the report later to add an additional item he found during a review with the plumber we hired to inspect the plumbing. Very professional, very thorough and well worth the price!

From the beginning Erik was quick to respond to my request for a home inspection. Being a buyer from out of town it was nice to be able to schedule it when I could be in town for the day. He was very professional and personable. I've bought a few homes and he is one of the best inspectors I've come in contact with. He's a true advocate for you. He is very detailed in his report and gives you the low-down of the main highlights of the home that are concerns. His pricing is the cheapest I had quoted from the raleigh area. Quality all the way. Thanks Erik!

Raudsep, of Iron Home Inspections, was prompt, knowledgeable, helpful, took time to explain details, was thorough and personable. The realtor, with whom I am working, was also very impressed and asked for Mr. Raudsep's information to provide to future clients. Mr. Raudsep is courteous, professional and most helpful. I highly recommend his services.

Erik installed the radon inspection device, but our builder brought in painters to do work on the house. The painters worked inside with doors and windows open and then left for the day with doors wide open. When I called Erik to say this would negate the test, he graciously said he would come back a week later to re-install the radon testing machine and re-do the test at no cost.

The over all inspection was performed in a timely manner. The inspector let me know what concerns should be addressed right away and what should be addressed in the near future.
Description of Work: Performed a exterior inspection of the property checking the siding, the foundation, the a/c unit, the gas meter, power receptacles and a visual of the roof and vent pipes. Some of the insulation for the a/c unit should be up graded. The inspector noticed a ground strap that should be installed for the gas meter but explained when the home was built it was not part of code at that time. A rubber boot should be replaced on a vent pipe on the roof do to some deterioration. The inspector also noticed some areas that should be recaulked for the siding and soffits. The interior inspection checking power receptacles, cabinets, gas and water shut offs, the hot water heater, railing and handrails for the stairs. Checked the operation of smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors. Inspected all windows and doors seals. Inspected the heating unit. The inspector was unable to access all of the attic crawl space to inspect the under side of the roof.

It went great! Eric was very patient and answered a lot of questions. He gave us insights into things we would never have thought of and if certain projects were even possible. His prior experience in renovations was a great help. He took lots of pictures and gave a very detailed report.
