Ryan's inspection was thorough. We received a printed report and detailed explanation at the end of the inspection. Professional and easy to work with. Highly recommended.

Very pleased with every interaction we had with this inspection firm, from the first instance in requesting their services, to the final report. In from out of state, we had just bought a new home in Southwest Ohio, and had very limited number of days available to complete a buyer's inspection before leaving town again. Danato worked with us to schedule an after normal business hours inspection the next business day with Inspector Ryan. Ryan was very thorough, and in addition to the usual inspection steps, he provided us useful tips on home ownership including suggestions for local vendors to consider for specific improvement projects. His report was completed and printed out on site at the conclusion of the visit, which was helpful. Without any hesitation, we would highly recommend this firm for home inspection services.

Definitely recommend! David did a fantastic job with 2 home inspections --- he was *incredibly* thorough, and he was able to test the water and inspect multiple areas (instead of having to hire several other inspectors for water, roof chimney, appliances, etc.). He gave us a detailed report, with pictures, immediately after the inspection. His hard work helped us avoid making a $200,000 mistake and confirmed when we found a great house. Thank you!

I really appreciate your wonderful review, it is so hard when you are buying sight unseen, you are depending on the thoroughness and integrity of the home inspector. I never want anyone buying and finding out later that it was [Member Information Removed] mistake. It was great meeting you at the second house, I hope you are enjoying your new home, thanks David

Went great. Ryan was the tech and was very helpful and thorough, explained all his findings. We used this company because they did the inspection on our house that we were selling and we were impressed with them and in that case we were not the ones who hired them.

We'd used David, one of the owners, for a previous house inspection during the buying process, and his astute observations got us out of a contract that might have nearly bankrupted us with problems with the house. The homeowners had a pre-inspection done, and David caught not just major problems (neither furnace worked, AC units over 30 years old and not performing well), but also numerous code violations that the other inspector missed (the water softener tapped directly into the sewage line, for example). David was thorough, efficient, and clearly knowledgeable. He understood our nervousness as first time buyers and explained not just what he was doing, but why. He was a pleasure to work with for the day, and the report we received that day was comprehensive, concise, and incredibly detailed. After leaving that contract when the homeowners refused to make any repairs or negotiate, we found another property and had David come back. We were delighted when he greeted us at our second inspection, saying "I'm sorry, but this report is going to be a lot shorter than the last one!" since the property was in great shape. He still took the time to give us advice on some quirks of the home we might not know about. The office staff was professional and polite, and we enjoyed every step of the process. Scheduling was easy, with Shannon calling the agents to set up the time and confirm with the sellers. We literally just had to show up. The only complaint we'd have is that it took over a month for the check to clear from the first inspection, and it took a few calls to figure out why it was delayed. We opted to pay with a credit card for the second inspection, and the process was seamless.
Description of Work: We needed a home inspection. We used David, one of the owners of the company, for our first inspection (a property that then fell through), and then specifically sought not just Buyers Inspection Services, but David himself, for the inspection on the property that we are now purchasing.

The services went very well.?The inspector was just really knowledgeable and he pointed out a lot of stuff that we hadn't realized that there were original parts to the home that were built but weren't to the current code, that we knew to get them fixed for safety purposes and everything. They were a little more expensive than ones we've had before, but I think it was worth the money still.
Description of Work: Just initial home inspection for a purchase. So, going over and looking at all the systems and everything and they also did a radon test.

Very well. We had a complete written and verbal report in detail which allowed us to continue purchasing the home with confidence. We had estimates on how long the roof would last, etc. which allowed us to make future plans when we moved in and not have surprises.

Our inspector was very thorough and helpful in identifying large and small issues that we needed to consider when negotiating purchase of our home. He provided tips on small repairs that we could handle ourselves and was able to answer all of our questions. He was very efficient and thorough and his report was very useful for negotiating purchase of our home and for detailing minor repairs that I focused on after we purchased the home.
Description of Work: Based on a recommendation, I hired Buyers to conduct a home inspection prior to closing on our home purchase.
