Our experiences with Sweet Home Inspectors was wonderful. We had to accept a shorter option period, so we were in a rush to find a reputable home inspector, termite inspector, and possibly someone who could do thermal imaging. It only took a call to Sweet Home Inspectors to let us know that we could get all three in one technician! Russell showed up on time and wasted no time getting to work. I was on site for the 3.5hr inspection and saw Russell going into unbelievable detail into his sleuthing, note-taking, and photo capturing. He was cordial and later proved to be easy-going and willing to show and explain various things he found that were especially concerning to him. My wife and our realtor joined us 3hrs into the inspection for a full tour of the premises where Russell pointed out all problematic areas of the home, potential termite issues, and even demonstrated hidden issues with the home's construction and plumbing by using thermal imaging. We received an incredibly detailed, 44-page report for the <2k sq ft home later that night that included photos and thermal images of all issues. A fair price for such insight, quality of work, and peace of mind.

I'm buying the house so it went well enough. George definitely took the mystery out of the big unknowns, in a gentle non-reactive way. Thank you so much for that George. He inspected a main home and a garage apartment. I enjoyed working with him especially because of his knowledge of Houston homes, his patience, lack of fear, and thoughtful teacher and reporter! Thank you again.

The inspection went great. David Moore was the inspector, and he was extremely thorough and answered all of my questions. The written report was very detailed and well-organized. I will use the written report to make follow-on repairs. This inspection was not inexpensive but worth the money. I would definitely use them again.

I got a coupon through Angies list that included termite insp. . The Inspector Jerry Arnold arrived on time and was very professional. The inspector was kind enough to explain what he was putting on his report and we did a walk around the house and Jerry would point out whatever he see is a concern. The report was also detailed with photos and explanation.

From my first contact to the completed report I was most impressed with Sweet Home Inspectors. Scheduling was easy, the team (separate inspectors for termite and structural) arrived on time, and did a thorough inspection. The detailed report arrived within 24 hours. David Sweet was my inspector and he was detailed and knowledgeable--most helpful to me in evaluating my potential home purchase. I would definitely use them again and recommend to friends!

Inspector showed up on time and conducted the inspection. The inspector was nice and explained the issues to me. The inspector did not deliver the report on time. I had to track down the inspector through his company to get his cell phone to obtain the report. Once I looked over the report, I noticed an important issue was not documented. I then had to track down the inspector once again to request he revise and include the omitted portion of the report. It was disappointing that I had to keep contacting the inspector just to get the correct report. Not longer than a month had gone by when we had major issues with one of our water heaters. I contacted Sweet Home Inspectors and was able to speak with the owner of the company. I explained what happened, and he essentially told me they would not do anything about the water heater. I asked for some kind of refund or allowance to pay for the water heater repair, but he refused.

Response from HouseCheck
We are truly sorry that you feel you had to 'track down' the report and that your water heater failure was something we could have foreseen. Please allow me a moment to respond to your concerns and hopefully resolve this matter: The 'issue that was not reported' was actually documented in the report with a photo; however, there was not a comment attached to said item. Our inspector did add a comment to the photo and resent the report to you the same day he received your call. Fifty-three days after your inspection I received a call from you and we discussed your water heater at length; I felt confident you would understand that an inspector and subsequent report can only comment on functionality of the systems at the time of the inspection. Yes, you wanted us to pay for your water heater, and I respectively tried to discuss that an inspection is not a warranty and the inspector cannot anticipate future performance or failure of a system that was operating well during the inspection. While we want to be more than fair in all our business dealings, there is no way that our inspector could have known the water heater would fail weeks after your inspection. We strive to make the inspection process thorough, educational and even enjoyable. We regret that your experience was less than stellar, and wish you the best in your new home. Sincerely, David Sweet, Sweet Home Inspectors of Texas

The inspector was on time, He answered the many questions I had and found several issues that I had not spotted during my previous walk through. Before leaving the inspector took the time to discuss his findings in detail with me. I received the written inspection report later that same day.I was able to get the seller to do all the necessary repairs using the information the inspector had provided me.

I would recomend them to everyone buying a home and will use them again if i need inspector in the future.

Not as I was expecting. The inspection process was not thorough, in my opinion everyone else would have been able to do the same work, it was very short and they just performed some visual inspection. For instance to inspect the plumbing they just ran water for a few moments... or to inspect foundation they just shut some doors and reopened them...

We had an excellent experience with Sweet Home Inspectors! Mandy made the scheduling process painless. David Moore was our inspector. He arrived early, was friendly and thorough. He even took the time to teach us about our new home! A few days after the inspection was completed, we David a call to cross-check some of the things our builder told us, and he happily answered those questions for us, which we appreciated! I would recommend David to any of our friends and family.

Inspection went very well. The inspector was thorough, professional, and knowledgeable. He pointed out potential future problems areas; areas where the design met minimum standards, but could have been done better; and explained why other items that looked concerning were really not. He also pointed out potential areas areas of investment to improve the property efficiently.
