Daniel H. Did an amazing job on our new home inspection. He arrived on time, and we met with him at the end of his process. He went through the entire home - top to bottom and has the pictures to prove that he even went on top of the roof. He met with us, and showed each of the areas that had issues and patiently explained the issue and recommended repairs. He even found out that our dishwasher wasn’t connected properly. He answered all of our questions and we never had the impression that he was in a rush. It was an afternoon inspection, and it ran a little late due to our questions. We feel more prepared to move into our home knowing what to look for and to be sure that repairs have been made. THANKS DANIEL for a great job. WE really appreciate it.

I highly recommend DBL Check. The inspection was accomplished to meet my timeframe and was easy to schedule. The inspector arrived on time and provided a very thorough inspection. The thermal imaging was helpful to find energy efficiency and other problems. The report was detailed with explanations and pictures. I found the report very helpful; the inspector found many items I would have missed. Highly recommended.
Description of Work: I needed an inspection prior the expiration of my one year warranty for my home. The inspection was to include thermal imaging and review of irrigation system.

We could not be happier with Dbl Check LLC. We were on a tight time frame since we were quickly approaching the one year mark in our home but also had a vacation scheduled right around the same time. Allan with Dbl Check was able to accommodate our schedule and made sure we had the inspection report in time to file everything under our home warranty. When Allan came out to the house, he was very thorough and took the time to explain what he was seeing, what he was looking for, and documented it all with pictures and detailed descriptions. The final report made it very easy for us to address the issues with our builder and we were confident that Allan and the Dbl Check team would be around after the inspection to answer any questions. It's been a few months now and we did run into an issue with our builder regarding one of the items on the inspection. Allan came back out to the house, re-checked the area in question, and went above and beyond to answer my questions, as well as provide additional information. This company is truly top-notch. They believe in excellent customer service and in the services they provide. I would, and have, highly recommend them.

Very easy to work with and very responsive. I was able to contact them every time I needed, even if nobody picked up, I received a call back within 5 min. Report was very detailed. When report talked about foundation/insulation/electrical box, it showed use of high tech gadgets, which were awesome. The only reason for B in quality is because it did not include Estimated price for repair and inspector did not provide info(in my previous experience from FL, report did include).

Patrick was great - very thorough, took about 4 to 5 hours to do the inspection. Got on the roof, went in the attic, took pictures of everything. He explained all the issues and possible remedies, etc. His report came to me via email the next day. The termite inspection was separate and done two days later. We got that report several days after it was done. All in all, we were very pleased with this company. Probably a little more expensive than others, but they were upfront that they were more expensive but also more thorough. I would use them again in a heartbeat.

Patrick was super awesome - professional, knowledgeable, thorough. He very patiently walked us through the major findings and my husband said (he has previously purchased 5 houses) Patrick was the most thorough inspector he has ever worked with, "blowing everyone else out of the water" was how he described him :) Thank you Patrick for making us feel a lot more confident in our purchasing decision going forward. It was a pleasure working with you! PS. we had pier and bean which cost extra, as well as termite. Anywho, it really is money well spent.

DBL Check was simply fantastic. They are a little pricier than some of the other inspection services out there, but they were incredibly thorough... and when it comes to a house purchase, why would you risk it?? I was impressed by the detail and amount of time that Allen spent on the properties (two! first deal didn't work out, and we hired them again for our next potential purchase). They were knowledgeable, on time, responsive. Everything you could want during such a stressful and crucial process during a home purchase. We opted for the full inspection, Wood Destroying Insect, and Thermal Imaging reports. Do yourself a favor, and call them right now if you're buying yourself a home.

It went well. It would have been better if the vendor's 58 page report would have been divided into Plumbing, Electrical, Wood, Painting, etc... instead of a 58 page report that identified improvements room by room. Why? So I could contract each category to resolve as a package. Hardest part is finding qualified, available labor in Austin, Tx. I've lived in 7 states and I've never experienced worse service than 78750.
Description of Work: I wanted an inspector to go over my home as if I was selling the property. However, I'm not leaving / selling. My objective was to identify items in need of repair - proactively. That is, I don't want to just let things break. I was motivated to understand the top 10 items that need to be addressed this year. H

Searching for a home inspector, and seeing all the rave reviews for Dbl Check, I decided to go with them for an inspection on a home, as first time home buyers, we were under contract to buy. It was the best decision I could have made. Daniel was extremely professional and thorough and I truly felt like I was in good hands. They were able to get in right away (closing was going to be in 4 weeks), and Daniel checked every nook and cranny of the property, including taking tons of pictures of all areas of concern. He then took as much time as needed to explain what he did, what he saw and what he felt could wait, or should be repaired immediately. Because of his inspection, my husband and I had a clearer picture of what we were possibly getting ourselves into (and it wasn't good lol). Daniel and Dbl Check saved us thousands of dollars, tons of time, and saved me from making a purchase that for us, would have been foolish. I cancelled the contract on that home, while we had the time and told Daniel that we will DEFINITELY be contacting him and Dbl Check for another inspection, once we find our home. Do yourself a huge service and book your home inspection with Dbl Check. They are awesome. Thanks again Daniel!!!!

Allan was very nice and walked me through everything he was looking at and why. For a new home, he did find several things that I would have never caught myself. Now when I have my walk through with the builder I can point these things out to get fixed. I will be calling DBL back for the 1 year warranty walk. They did more than expected and every professional company to work with.

Great price, great service! I called DBL Check to inspect a new house we are buying in Steiner Ranch. Daniel was sent to our job and he showed up early, and graciously allowed me to accompany him on the inspection while explaining everything he found in detail as well as gave great advice as to what to watch out for in the future. He also stayed for longer than was expected because he was so thorough, then took extra time to sit down with my husband afterwards and explain his findings as well. This house is a huge investment for us, and even though it is fairly new, we want to be very sure that we aren't buying something that is going to suck more money from us, so we were very keen to get a good inspection. He did such a great job! Daniel was very knowledgeable, patient with my questions, very kind and professional, very thorough, report was really well done and clearly stated all issues with great explanations and pics, and he was great with communication. He went above and beyond for us, so overall best experience ever! Update: after moving into our new house a month after the inspection, I am even more happy with the job Daniel did. The sellers fixed nearly everything on his report and the little things left over we are doing ourselves. We never would have found these issues had he not pointed them out to us, and I am certain he has saved us a lot of money in the long run! Bonus: i found a pipe sticking out of the wall by the washing machine that was capped off and had no idea what it was..rather than spend money and call someone to come out to see if it's a drain line for the washer or what, I just texted Daniel a pic and he gave me an explanation immediately, so we know now that it's an access point to clean out clogged washer drainage lines, not the drainage line itself!! He's been so great! Definitely recommend this company and especially Daniel.

We live out of state, and we are relying on what our realtor and inspector tell us about the property. From what I was told by our agent, Aaron arrived promptly at 8:30am and completed his inspection in about 6 hours. He looked at the house from the roof to the foundation (our first inspector on a different property looked at the roof from the street and "felt" for irregularities in the foundation). He took many pictures and provided details of the problem areas (there were many) that he found. The report was 63 pages long. In the end, we decided to pass on the property-not because it was a deathtrap, but a potential money pit. We have been looking for a home in the Austin area for several months, and we had our hopes up that this was going to be the house for us...that wasn't snatched up by investors with deep pockets. On paper and in pictures, it looked great. But, on closer inspection by an experienced professional, it had many, many flaws. Aaron went through his report with me over the phone, and took about 25 minutes to explain his findings and to answer my questions. Aaron's inspection saved us from buying a potential money pit. THANK YOU! I wanted to use DBL Check for the inspection on the property we are currently trying to buy, but they do not serve Jarrell, TX. Too bad. They are a great company.

I am very pleased with the thoroughness of the report and the professionalism of the inspector. I have used the report as a basis for discussion with contractors giving bids for needed work. After contractors review the building, foundation, carport and shed, I can use the report to point out any items germane to their specific area that need work. I feel knowledgeable discussing construction and foundation issues because of the report. Money well spent and would do it again with this company. I highly recommend them.
Description of Work: Made a complete inspection of house, porches, carport, shed and foundation. Took numerous pictures and measurements and reviewed findings in person at end of inspection and also wrote a 42 page report with comments, recommendations and pictures. Basically, this inspection covered every inch of the dwelling and attached areas, both inside and out.

I confirmed they had high ratings on Yelp, as well as here on AL. When I called to discuss the process and why I should choose their company, I spoke with Aaron. Aaron was very personable on the phone and made us feel at ease with our questions. He had immediate availability, which was a relief as we didn't want to wait until the end of our option period to get the inspection. Based on their ratings and our overall "gut feeling" when talking with Aaron, we hired them to conduct our home inspection. We've always been told to hire your own inspector instead of using your agent's. Choosing Aaron and DBL Check was a wise decision on our part. When we arrived, Aaron was already hard at work checking the roof. Aaron was EXTREMELY thorough. He spent over 4 hours inspecting our future home. He was polite when we pulled him off task to answer questions about things we were noticing in the home (prior to his reaching that area) and didn't mind us tagging along behind him. He answered all of our questions and made sure we understood the ramifications of any issues/defects with the home. He provided his insight into prioritizing our areas of concern. The home was pre-inspected but we did not provide Aaron with a copy of that report prior to his inspection. Aaron found all of the areas of concerns of the initial inspector, as well as many other defects in the home. We are extremely thankful for Aaron's attention to detail and great customer service. We feel confident that Aaron found everything humanly possible. I would not hesitate to recommend Aaron!

I loved being able to submit the request online! I filled in their questionnaire which includes the property basics and then gives you a list of all the services they offer and the price of each. I received a call within a few hours to confirm my needs and schedule the inspection. I was under a time constraint and was thrilled that the inspection could be done within two days. The morning of the inspection I received a call from the inspector, Jason Henley, that he was on his way to the property and asked if there was anything additional I needed and giving me an estimate of how long he expected the exam to take and the promise to call me when complete. He phoned me exactly when he had promised and walked me through his findings and which things he considered important. The next morning I received the complete written report (90 pages) which included all work done, findings and detailed photos of everything. Could not be happier. Is there a grade higher than A? If so I would use it. A++++.

DBL/Jason were very professional. Before Jason came for his appointment, I was emailed a contract for service, which I was able to sign and return, all online. Jason showed up on time and got right to work. Since this was an inspection for selling purposes, he spent a little extra time going over the house, to help us avoid any surprises. Before he left, he showed me all of the pictures he took, and explained the issue with each item. By the next afternoon, Jason had emailed us an extensive 72 page report. We're very happy with DBL's service.

The service rendered was fantastic! It was unfortunate that we found so many major issues with the first house, that I have to call them again, but I would call them for every house I needed inspected. The inspector was incredibly pedantic about everything. For every one thing I noticed, he noticed five , and I consider myself a detail oriented person. I walked with him the entire inspection (except for the roof part), any time he would notice something he would point it out to me, and tell me what it was. At the end of the whole thing, he sat down with me, and my agent, and went over, with pictures, every little thing that was not up to par on the house. He would say if something was going to be a big issue or not after describing what the problem would be. So once the inspection was over, I had a pretty good idea of what kind of work the house needs. I got an email with the full report, pictures included with captures describing what each picture.

Double Check did a completely thorough job inspecting my new home. We were really blown away at the attention to detail and quality of the report. This isn't our first home purchase so we had an expectation of how a home inspection should go but we were really surprised at the difference in quality between this experience and our previous ones. I'd wholeheartedly recommend Double Check to anyone looking to buy a home. I feel really good about the information provided us and couldn't be happier.

This was the most thorough inspection/inspectors we have ever had. This is our 6th home purchase and we were very impressed. We will definitely be using this company in all future home purchases. They made sure to walk me through the repairs that would be needed and explain how they should be done by us or our contractor. Very very pleased with the entire experience and have already recommended them to others.
