Randy was punctual and professional, and extremely thorough. He inspected the house from top to bottom and pointed out a number of small issues that I wouldn't have though of. His report was very complete and included everything we discussed.

Randy was very thorough in his inspection and the report was professionally done, including photos, and provided in a timely fashion. His description of the issues led directly to negotiation of significant repairs at the expense of the seller in addition to some maintenance issues we could fix quickly. In addition, we learned many good maintenance tips for our new home by following Randy around during the inspection.

From the initial contact to the report C.L. Gleich demonstrated professionalism and were prompt in providing services. My phone call was returned within 2 hours of me leaving a message and we were able to set the inspection up for the following Sunday. Randy arrived on time and was professional in the information he was providing us. As first time home buyers we were a bit clueless and unsure of what to expect but Randy helped us along every step of the way providing general home owning tips as well as identifying the defects in the property and ensuring to note everything we came across. He spent approximately 3 hours with us walking through every room in the home. In addition the report was promptly written up and provided to us the same day. This helped us to move forward quickly with requesting the sellers to make the necessary changes. Our realtor referred us to C.L. Gleich and I would happily refer him to others as well.

Randy Via really knows his stuff! He was thorough and professional. He looked at all systems and used various means of determining what was in good condition and what was not. We highly recommend!

Lisa was prompt in returning my phone call to set-up the inspection. She explained the cost and what would be done. On the date of the inspection we met Randy the home inspector. Randy went right to work inside of the house once we arrived. He was all over the house testing appliances, electrical outlets, checking the furnace and the gas fireplaces, and many other things too numerous to mention. Outside he checked the gutters, the roof, the garage, and several othet things I have forgotten. I have not written everything Randy inspected, but it was a lot and we received a complete and thorough inspection of the house. Randy was able to find nine issues that we submitted for remedy to the sellers. Randy was great in telling us small things that needed to be done (like shortening the chain inside of a toilet so it would not get caught underneath the plunger) that would make our lives a little easier in our new home. Randy kept things moving while peppering us with stories of other home inspections. Overall, Randy was at the house for over 3.5 hours. A small portion of that time, maybe twenty minutes, was spent printing the 11 page inspection report and explaining it to us. We would be more than happy to suggest Randy to our friends.

He showed up on time, had all the equipment he needed, used a GFCI on every electrical outlet inside and out, found an outside outlet that was not grounded, he encouraged my husband to shadow him and ask questions (which he did). I'd say 2 thumbs up and have already told friends and neighbors about him.
Description of Work: Randy did the inspection for the home we eventually purchased. We did 2 walkthroughs of the property before we decided to bid on it. He was very thorough. He climbed up on the roof (in 90+ degree weather), crawled around the crawlspace etc. We have a 1,600 sq ft ranch and he was here about 2 and a half hours. He did not find any serious problems but he found little things we had not noticed in our walkthroughs.

The inspection went very well, the process took just over 3 hours, they estimated it would take 3-4 hours, they were able to schedule to our needs, too. They found several minor issues via a very thorough inspection of the house and grounds. He involved us in the whole process explaining as much as we wanted, and encouraged questions. We had our complete report printout at the end of the inspection, so we did not have to wait a few days for it. Very professional and a job well done.

Randy came on time, was friendly, and very informative. He spent 3+ hours with me giving the entire property a very thorough evaluation. He used a handheld palm pilot to document everything while we were walking through the inspection, then brought in his printer and handed me his report. The report included summaries for items that were marginal status (green) and defective status (red), very easy to prioritize projects or assess if I could do the work or if I need to contract with a professional. It also had a check list of each room or area on the property with his comments and recommendations. I plan to use this company again and encourage anyone to do the same.
Description of Work: I will be selling my home next year and wanted to get an inspection to prioritize what work needed to be done to prepare it for the sale.

Description of Work: We were out of town during the inspection of our new home. We had made the appointment over the phone with an efficient, pleasant receptionist and we then mailed payment for service. Our realtor met with Chuck Gleich for the inspection. He had a thorough report filled with comments that he left with the realtor.

GREAT EXPERIENCE. I HAD ONE WEEK TO COMPLETE AN INSPECTION, AND ANOTHER COMPANY CANCELLED MY APPOINTMENT AT THE LAST MINUTE LEAVING ME SCRAMBLING FOR ANOTHER INSPECTOR. I EXPLAINED MY SITUATION TO CL GLEICH AND THEY CAME THROUGH. MY INSPECTOR, RANDY VIA, WAS EXCELLENT. HE FOUND A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT HAD BEEN OVERLOOKED BY MANY PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF. HE TOOK THE TIME TO GIVE ME MAINTENANCE POINTERS, VERY HELPFUL FOR A FIRST TIME HOME BUYER. THIS INSPECTION WAS FOR A MEDIUM SIZED CONDO AND HE TOOK A GOOD 2.5 HOURS WITH IT.

RANDY IS A VERY THOROUGH INSPECTOR. THEIR REPORT IS NOT VERY EXTENSIVE- JUST A HAND WRITTEN CHECK LIST THAT THEY GIVE YOU AT THE END OF THE INSPECTION. PROBABLY BETTER FOR A HOUSE WITHOUT A LOT OF CONCERNS. QUALITY INSPECTION FOR THE MONEY.
