Description of Work: The structural engineer, Jim Gendill, evaluated our foundation. He was extremely professional and clearly knew what he was doing. He explained things very well and was also very friendly. Would recommend him highly. Worth the money.

Description of Work: We had concerns that our house had foundation problems, so called Anasazi Engineering because they were local and had good ratings. The owner showed up right on time, asked us about our concerns, then proceeded to spend the next 45 minutes or so examining the interior and exterior of our home. He then spent another 30 minutes explaining what he found and answering our questions. A nice guy, to boot. This just happened this morning so we don't have the report yet, but I expect it will be thorough.

Jim is great!! Very professional, very informative, and seems to be very honest. In addition to the comprehensive inspection he performed, his experience and education as a Civil Engineer was extremely helpful since the property I'm purchasing has some suspect structural issues. I highly recommend Jim Gendill and Anasazi Home Inspections if you own, or are purchasing property in the OKC area!

Gave a thorough and complete home inspection for my 1 year builder's warranty. While no furniture or carpet was disturbed, each room was analyzed as thoroughly as possible. The entire process took around 3 hours, with 2+ hours taken to actually perform the inspection. Great care was displayed in every respect, from a dedicated pair of clean indoor shoes to putting up with my attention-craved feline around every corner. Jim arrived on time, was very professional and qualified, all while remaining personable and a pleasure to work with. He provided informative suggestions and explanation of his findings, as well as a detailed 'punch-list' that I can hand directly to my builder. He even took the time to review and discuss my personal list of items that I had been keeping since I moved in. Jim and Joyce are an awesome team that I would highly recommend to anyone in need of home inspection related services. Great quality at a great price!
Description of Work: Home inspection for 1 year builder's warranty. Jim performed both an outdoor and indoor inspection of the structure, including (but not limited to) drainage, roof, brick, windows/trim, appliances, plumbing, electrical and HVAC (and probably more). Provided a detailed and easy-to-follow 'punch-list' for use by my builder during warranty fulfillment.

They arrived promptly and ready to work. They are a husband and wife team, and work together extremely well. She takes detailed notes as he does the inspection of each area, and is right at hand to hold a light or tool to assist him, or to switch the zones from the controls in the garage while he examines the sprinkler system in the yard. They use radio phones to communicate remotely, so that he can verbally describe what he is actually observing in an area, like the attic, while she records his feedback real-time. They were both personable and knowledgeable, willing to explain their findings, give suggestions for correction of minor issues or recommendations for ongoing care or maintenance of items. They are well equipped and prepared and presented us with a computer generated final report right on site. The explanations in the final report of repair items were clear and straightforward. Their discussion of the findings was presented in an "opinion-neutral" manner, but they did highlight areas that might warrant further investigation. Jim is highly credentialed and knowledgeable, but does not hesitate to tell you the limits of his expertise in any particular area. Days after the inspection, they readily answered questions when I called, and even made a recommendation for an expert to do a further investigation for us. Overall, we felt the service was first quality. We needed solid, factual data to aid us in making a major purchase decision, and I feel we got exactly what we needed. For the caliber of service rendered, the price was very reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend Jim and Joyce Gendill and Anasazi Home Inspections to any prospective home buyer, and I will definitely use them if I need this service again in the future.
Description of Work: They performed a whole house inspection on a home we were considering buying. Their checklist was extensive and they spent over four hours thoroughly going over every aspect of the house and grounds. They checked all interior and exterior doors, including cabinet and garage doors. They checked all windows and frames. They checked every electrical outlet in the house and on the grounds. They checked every light and fan. They checked toilets and faucet fixtures , sinks and tubs for operation and water pressure, and shower drain pans for leakage. They checked all appliances for proper operation. They checked ceilings and walls for cracks or water stains. They checked the attic for insulation, flooring, duct work and venting. A visual inspection was made of the roof. They checked the exterior brickwork and the walkways and driveway for cracks or unusual settlement. They checked the yard and around the foundation for signs of drainage or water problems. They clearly explained beforehand what their fee included, and what services could be had for an additional fee. We had them check the sprinkler system for an additional fee, I used their Angie's List coupon for a free visual check for mold. We contracted another service to inspect the well and septic systems. Although not HVAC specialists, they checked the HVAC for proper operation and all vents for airflow and signs of excessive condensation, and made appropriate recommendations. Any area they were unable to access to inspect was duly noted, and a recommendation made if further action might be needed.

They were really good and they spent several hours here. There were just a few things in their report that didn't match up, I contacted him and he made changes to the report. The price was right on target and I was really pleased.

They arrived on time, got started promptly and were very friendly. Jim did a thorough inspection of the entire house. They were professional and very detail oriented, finding even the smallest detail that wasn't quite right. We were very concerned about the foundation of the house, and since Jim is an engineer, were very reassured with his findings. At the end of the inspection, a complete report was generated and Jim went over every finding in the report and answered all of our questions completely. I couldn't imagine a better or more pleasant experience with a home inspection. If you want a quality inspection, not just a "quickie" from someone who may not have any real qualifications, then use Anasazi!
Description of Work: A complete home inspection of our 103 year old home.

The inspector and his wife were both very knowledgeable. He inspected, while she took notes. I basically listened, asked a few questions, and observed where all was checked out. It went very smoothly, they were a few minutes early, at 9 am, and I think the inspection took about 3 + hours, top to bottom. He was unable to get to the roof, his ladder was too short, but was able to visually inspect from the attic. I learned a lot about historic homes in general, and this home in particular. On my request, they gave me names of handymen and workers they would recommend. I received a full print out of his findings and recommendations and cost estimates on that day. They brought their own computer and printer to the site.
Description of Work: We requested a thorough home inspection of a house we were buying in a historic area. We requested a crawl space inspection, $75 extra, and I attended the entire inspection.

This is the longest home inspection I have ever witnessed. I think they were there approximately 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Obviously, they are extremely thorough. However, I view this not as a detriment, but as a positive--the fact that he is also an engineer instilled confidence in his findings as well. His findings were very specific and it certainly gave me peace of mind to know exactly what needed to be done/fixed prior to moving into this great old house.
Description of Work: Called and set up an inspection within 2 days. Jim is very professional and a "no nonsense" kind of guy. Anasazi was very thorough and we were very happy with the service we received--since we bought an older, historic home it was important to us that our inspector discover any existing (and potential) defects in the home. Anasazi left no stone unturned, even going into our dark, spider-laden crawl space. The owner of the business, Jim, also has several engineering degrees, including a Master's in civil engineering; he has a good eye for finding any structural issues, which is very well worth the money, particularly for older homes.
