My wife and I decided to get a home inspector as our 1 year warranty period was approaching. I had read all the positive reviews for Brent so we booked an appointment with hime. Brent arrived on time and was ready to get at it. He really enjoys his work and it shows. We were given a binder with a full report and he answered all of my questions and said I could contact him anytime if I had questions. I'm really glad we had Brent do the job and we'll definitely be submitting things that we alone, never would have seen. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.

Thank you for the feedback Frank! I am very appreciative when people take the time to go onto homestars and leave feedback. I am glad that you were happy with the inspection. I can honestly say that I "tip my hat" to you homebuilder. That's the first one in some time that I've inspected where the issues were minimal. However, things like exposed live wiring in your garage is not to be taken lightly. Accidents can happen. As I told you when the inspection was being done, I will also make recommendations to prevent accidents. Sure, your builder met all code, but it things like railings around porches that sit 22 inches off the ground where people can still get hurt. When I see things such as this, bearing in mind that the number one accident around the home (fatal or non-fatal) is from falling, and that's why I will still recommend a railing. I know your builder has done their part, but it still hurts breaking a tail bone, or doing a face plant into a cement patio slab. Simply because it didn't meet the 24 inch height requirement of needing a handrail. Thanks for choosing Classic Home Inspections !
