The Wing Inspection Group Inc

MARK WING WAS PROFESSIONAL, THOROUGH AND DID AN EXCELLENT JOB OF FINDING AND EXPLAINING PROBLEMS WE HAD NOT NOTICED. HE ALSO GAVE US INFORMATION AND REFERENCES ABOUT REPAIRS NEEDED. THIS HOUSE HAD WATER PROBLEMS IN THE BASEMENT AND HIS KNOWLEDGE IN THIS AREA WAS VERY HELPFUL IN DETERMINING A FAIR PRICE TO OFFER FOR THIS HOUSE. HE IS AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS THAT ARISE CONCERNING THIS INSPECTION IN THE FUTURE. I HAVE CALLED HIM ONCE ALREADY AND HIS OFFICE WAS VERY QUICK TO RESPOND. THE PRICE WE PAID WAS AVERAGE FOR THIS TYPE OF INSPECTION. WE FEEL IT WAS MONEY WELL SPENT. WE WOULD DEFINITELY US HIM AGAIN. HE EVEN SPOKE TO THE REALTOR AND HOMEOWNER AFTER A MISUNDERSTANDING AROSE ABOUT OUR RIGHT TO PRIVACY DURING THE HOME INSPECTION.

THE EXPERIENCE STARTED OFF GREAT FROM THE FIRST CALL I MADE. BETH PROMPTLY RETURNED MY CALL AND SCHEDULED THE APPOINTMENT. MARK WAS RIGHT ON TIME FOR THE INSPECTION. WE SPENT A GREAT DEAL OF TIME JUST GETTING AN EDUCATION OF THE PROCESS AS WELL AS A OVERVIEW OF WHAT WAS TO TAKE PLACE AND HAPPEN DURING THE INSPECTION. I SPENT AT LEAST 4 HOURS WITH MARK AS HE INSPECTED THE HOUSE, ATTIC, BASEMENT, GARAGE, AND EXTERIOR OF THE PROPERTY. MARK PROVIDED ME WITH A DETAILED REPORT IMMEDIATELY AND ALSO WENT OVER THE REPORT TO IDENTIFY AN ISSUES TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT. VERY COMPREHENSIVE, PROFESSIONAL AND PLEASANT TO WORK WITH. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY USE HIM AGAIN, ESPECIALLY IF PURCHASING AN OLDER HOME.

MARK WAS VERY HELPFUL THROUGH THE INSPECTION AND FOUND A LOT OF THINGS THAT WE WOULDN'T HAVE EVEN THOUGHT TO CHECK. WE ENDED UP TERMINATING THE CONTRACT BECAUSE HE FOUND SOME MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE HOUSE. I'M GLAD HE FOUND THEM BEFORE WE OWNED THE HOUSE. HE GAVE US LOTS OF GOOD ADVICE FOR WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN WALKING THROUGH HOUSES. I REALLY LIKED HOW HE SITS DOWN WITH YOU BEFOREHAND AND TELLS US WHAT TO EXPECT, AND HE ASKS US WHAT WE LIKE, DISLIKE, AND WANT TO CHANGE. THIS HELPS HIM KNOW WHAT TO FOCUS ON IN HIS INSPECTION AS WELL.

MARK ARRIVED ON TIME AND STARTED THE PROCESS BY ASKING IF WE HAD SPECIFIC CONCERNS SO THAT HE WOULD BE SURE TO ADDRESS THEM. HE ALSO ASKED ABOUT THE TIME FRAME THAT WE PLANNED TO OWN THE HOUSE, WHICH GAVE HIM AN IDEA OF WHAT MIGHT NEED REPAIRED OR REPLACED DURING THAT PERIOD. HE SPENT 4 HOURS INSPECTING THE HOUSE AND POINTED OUT ISSUES AS HE FOUND THEM AND HE WAS RESPONSIVE TO OUR QUESTIONS THROUGHOUT THE 4 HOURS. I BELIEVE HE WAS HONEST IN HIS ASSESSMENT AND DID NOT ATTEMPT TO SUGAR COAT ANYTHING. HE WAS VERY THOROUGH AND PROVIDED US WITH A REPORT AT THE END OF THE INSPECTION. MARK DOES NOT WORK FOR THE REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY, SO HE DOES NOT HESITATE TO POINT OUT ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEMS HE ENCOUNTERS. HE ALSO COVERED LIMITATIONS IN THE INSPECTION PROCESS. I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH HIS WORK AND I WOULD USE HIM AGAIN.

MARK KNOWS HIS STUFF. HE'S AN ENGINEER BY TRADE, AND YOU CAN TELL HOW MUCH EXPERIENCE HE HAS IN IDENTIFYING PROBLEMS IN STRUCTURE, ROOF, ETC... WING IS NOT THE CHEAPEST INSPECTION COMPANY YOU'LL FIND, BUT THEY WILL SAVE YOU A LOT OF MONEY ON THE PURCHASE BECAUSE THEY ARE SO THOROUGH!!WE WOULD RECOMMEND MARK WING TO EVERYONE WE KNOW! DON'T TRUST A REALTOR TO RECOMMEND AN INSPECTOR. THEY GET PAID ON SELLING THE PROPERTY.

I CAN'T SAY ENOUGH POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT THE INSPECTOR. HE WAS PROFESSIONAL; EXTREMELY THOROUGH (AND FAIR); KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT ROOF CONSTRUCTION; DETAILED IN HIS FINDINGS. THE ROOFING CONTRACTOR TOOK ISSUE WITH ONLY ONE ITEM IDENTIFIED BY WING. IT WAS MINOR. THE ROOFER CAME BACK AND COMPLETED MOST OF HIS PUNCH LIST; THAT'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT STORY.

MR. WING WAS PROMPT AND POLITE. HE SAT DOWN AND EXPLAINED THE PROCEDURE AND THE RISKS INVOLVED WITH THE INSPECTION. THE WRITTEN REPORT WAS MAILED A WEEK LATER, BUT HAS SEVERAL TYPOS AND NOT EFFICIENTLY ORGANIZED, BUT OTHERWISE WAS GOOD.

MARK WING INSPECTED A HOUSE WE WERE IN CONTRACT WITH AND I FOUND HIM TO BE VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT HIS PROFESSION. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM HIGHLY. HE SPENT OVER 4 HOURS AT THE HOUSE.

BE CAUTIOUS OF HOME INSPECTORS REFERRED TO YOU BY REAL ESTATE AGENTS- A REALTOR WANTING TO CLOSE A DEAL AND YOU NEEDING THE MOST ACCURATE ASSESSMENT OF A PROPERTY MAY BE A CONFLICT OF INTEREST. I HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH A REALTOR REFERRED HOME INSPECTOR IN THE PAST, WHO MISSED ESSENTIAL FOUNDATION PROBLEMS. IN CONTRAST, MY GUESS IS THAT NO REAL ESTATE AGENTS USE MARK WING. MY EXPERIENCE WITH HIM IS CONSISTENT WITH THE OTHER EVALUATIONS. HE EXCELLED IN PROVIDING A THOROUGH, DETAILED ACCOUNT OF MY PROPERTY. I HAVE USED HIM FOR HOUSES IN BEXLEY WHERE AN EXPERIENCED INSPECTOR IS ESSENTIAL IN EVALUATING THE CONDITION OF AN OLDER HOME.

THE COMPANY IS WONDERFUL TO DEAL WITH FROM BETH WHO ANSWERS YOUR CALLS, TO MARK, THE OWNER, WHO DID THE INSPECTION. VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE IN WHAT THEY DO AND DEFINITELY WORK HARD FOR THE BUYER.

WE HAD MARK THE OWNER DO OUR INSPECTION AND IT SAVED US MONEY. MARK DOES NOT HAVE AN ENGINEERING DEGREE, BUT HE DOES HAVE THE EXPERIENCE.

MARK WING WAS ABLE TO FIT ME IN ON A TIGHT TIMELINE. HIS INSPECTION WAS VERY THOROUGH. THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB

MARK IS HIGHLY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND PROFESSIONAL. HIGHLY RECOMMEND FOR HOME INSPECTIONS.

WE JUST NEEDED THE BALCONY INSPECTED AND HE WAS WILLING TO DO THIS. GOOD JOB.

WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND. SUCH A DIFFERENCE FROM THE LAST INSPECTOR ON OUR CURRENT HOME. GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL.

WE WOULD RECOMMEND ASKING HIM TO WRITE ALL OF HIS CONCERNS AND COMMENTS DOWN ON THE REPORT. HE GAVE US A LOT OF HELPFUL INFORMATION IN PERSON, BUT WE FOUND SOME OF THE COMMENTS WERE NOT INCLUDED OR AS CLEAR IN THE FORMAL REPORT, AND WE HAD FORGOTTEN SOME OF THEM LATER.

HE WAS VERY HELPFUL ESPECIALLY ONCE HE IDENTIFIED AN AREA OF CONCERN, HE RECOMMENDED WHAT TO DO AND WHO I SHOULD CONTACT.

CALL AND SPOKE WITH WIFE AND CALLED HER BACK TO SEE IF WE COULD SCHEDULE SOONER. CAME THAT SAME EVENING AND HAD REPORT IN MY HAND WITHIN 24 HOURS. WHICH I WAS ABLE TO GIVE INFORMATION TO OTHER PROVIDERS. ALSO FOLLOWED UP WITH THE REPORT WHICH I RECEIVED THE DAY AFTER IN THE MAIL. WAS HERE FOR 2 HOURS AND CAME SO QUICKLY. I THOUGHT THAT WAS EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE.

GAVE A LOT OF HELPFUL EXPLANATIONS ON HOW TO FIX THINGS RANGING FROM A LEAKING TOILET TO MINOR COSMETIC ISSUES.

CALL EARLY. EARLIEST AVAILABLE DATE FOR INSPECTION WAS 5 BUSINESS DAYS.

THE INSPECTION WAS FOR THREE DIFFERENT BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY. MARK DID THE INSPECTION. THE THING I REALLY ENJOYED ABOUT THE INSPECTION WAS NOT ONLY THE LIST OF THINGS I COULD TO THE SELLER ABOUT BUT ALSO I RECEIVED A LIST OF THINGS I WOULD NEED TO PERFORM SERVICE ON BOTH LONG AND SHORT TERM.

MARK WING IS A PRO. HE DOES GREAT WORK. I WAS TOLD THAT THE HOUSE I WANTED TO BUY HAD ALREADY PASSED A COMPLETE HOME INSPECTION. AFTER MARK LOOKED AT IT, I HAD A COMPLETE LIST OF ISSUES THAT I HAD NOT NOTICED. EVEN THE REAL ESTATE PROS TURN TO HIM. HE DID A COMPETE JOB.

MARK WING WAS EXTREMELY ATTENTIVE TO OUR NEEDS AND THOROUGH, AND GAVE A LOT OF ADVICE ON FUTURE MAINTENANCE. THE HOMES ATTIC WAS SEALED, SO WHEN WE GOT ACCESS 2 WEEKS LATER HE FINISHED THE INSPECTION AT NO EXTRA CHARGE. FEES ARE BY THE SQUARE FOOT. HE FINISHES HIS REPORT AND GIVES YOU SEVERAL COPIES ON SITE. ITS JUST A CHECKLIST FORM, SO TO BE SURE TO GET THE FULL VALUE OF THIS SERVICE, YOU SHOULD ATTEND THE INSPECTION AND TAKE NOTES. HE`LL GIVE A LOT OF VALUABLE INFORMATION YOU WILL WANT LATER. HE EVEN QUIZZED ME AFTERWARD ON THE SIZE OF THE FURNACE AND HOW LONG WE COULD EXPECT THE WATER HEATER TO LAST! EVEN BETTER THAN A DAD (SORRY, DAD).

HE WENT INTO EXCESSIVE DETAIL THAT WAS NOT RANKED ACCORDING TO PRIORITY, SO YOU HAD THINGS LIKE: I HAD TO CHANGE FURNACE FILTER. SIGNIFICANT CHANGES: SIDING IS COMING APART AT SOUTH SIDE OF GARAGE. THE EXCESSIVE DETAIL CAUSED ME TO LOSE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. MEMBER WOULD HAVE PREFERRED THAT HE FOCUS ON MORE MAJOR AREAS OR RANKED IN ORDER OF IMPORTANCE.

THOROUGH AND PROMPT. WHEN I CALLED, THEY WERE ABLE TO COME OUT THE NEXT DAY. WERE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF RADON TESTING AS WELL.
