Went great, immediate response when I called. Needed a Radon test with the general home inspection, for a home purchase. Called on a Monday, Mark immediately responded, and had the Radon test scheduled on Tuesday, since it needed 2 days for the test, and the general inspection on Wednesday to have everything ready by Wednesday night. All reports were ready by following day. Mark contacted my realtor and scheduled all the appointments with her. I met him for the general inspection, when through all the details with me, explained everything for me, and answered all my questions. Very knowledgeable, professional, thorough and efficient. Would recommend Mark for anyone!!!

Description of Work: Mark probably did a good job. Time will tell if I have any problems with the condo he inspected. This was my first occasion to use an inspector. He was a little late. He seemed to do a thorough inspection but was rather uncommunicative until I began asking him questions.

Home inspection report 1. Omitted that one chimney was crumbling and needed to rebuilt 2. Several rooms in the home had no heat source, even though his report indicated otherwise. 3. Omitted 5 brick window wells were deteriorating and needed major work. 4. Report indicated that gas starter existed in fireplace and was functioning; this was inaccurate. Upon first contacting the inspector about problems, his first response and immediate was concern was whether or not I had told any of this to the realtor who had referred him. The inspector admitted to the omission of a heat source in several rooms and asked us for time to allow him to address the problems. We gave him two years to address the problem but he was completely unresponsive so we sued him in small claims court and won the maximum allowed by the court. The inspector doesn't appear to have insurance and has not paid the judgement.
Description of Work: Hired Bornhorst to perform home inspection on a historic home in the same neighborhood the contractor lives in. The report omitted major flaws and defects which cost us thousands of dollars to address. We sued the contractor in small claims and won the maximum amount allowed by the court. Contractor has refused to pay judgement and apparently is not even insured.
