After living in an apartment/condo for 20 years buying a residential house was a daunting task when it came to knowing what to look for in inspections. Charlie was amazing to work with giving very clear direction on what to look for and walking us through what were risks and ensuring we had a good level of comfort. Charlie was prompt, extremely thorough, provided an excellent written report and a lot of great advice. I wouldn't ever consider buying another house without contacting Charlie.
Description of Work: Both pre and full inspection for home purchase.

I have been through the inspection process a few times on previous homes but Charles far and away has been the best inspector I have encountered. His 59 page report was a bit daunting at first but I appreciated the incredible detail of every aspect of the house and it was a great help in the negotiation process. As a previous poster stated, I will be calling on Charles in the future to review any major home repair issues to be sure things are being done correctly.
Description of Work: Inspection for a home I am purchasing.

He is nice, easy to work with, and very knowledgeable. He provides a thorough report, and he really knows his stuff. He is a leader in the home inspector community, writing an well-read blog and teaching courses. Since we had such a good experience with Charlie during the inspection, we have relied on him since then when problems have come up with repairs to our house (both water damage). He has served as an outside opinion on what needs to be done to fix the problem and improved our chances that the repair person would do the job right. I wish everyone I hire was as professional and easy to work with as Charlie.
Description of Work: Charlie inspected our house before we bought it. I don't remember the exact amount we paid, but it was worth it.
