Home Inspection

Never used a home inspector before so didn't know what to expect. Decided to go with Brent due to the highly rated reviews on this site. Brent, not only came on short notice, he arrived early, and was able to perform the inspection in 2hrs (the only time window given to us by the owner), He quickly found 3 water leaks in the house and a few repaired leaks. I appreciated Brent's easy going personality, accuracy in finding the leaks, explaining to me how his equipment worked, and most of all, offering up suggestions on how to repair some of the minor issues. He's an honest straight forward guy that doesn't nickel and dime you and most of all, he can find the leaks and other issues in the biggest purchase of your life. I'd recommend him every time.

Thank you so much Hudson for taking the time to leave me a review! I really appreciate it! The market is totally insane isn’t it? That house went for $140K over asking, completely ridiculous. Nonetheless, don't be disheartened, there will be one out there with your name on it! I hope the people who paid $140K over asking in the bidding war know there are three water leaks in the basement that they are going to have to address. Maybe they will realize it when they take over the home sometime in April when all this snow melts and there’s a great big thaw. Hope they have some good rubber boots to wear for the basement. Good cover up by the current homeowner though. Thanks so much again Hudson, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!!!

We highly recommend his services

home inspection

We used this company for two separate home inspections (each costing over $300). Brent, the inspector, is very knowledgeable and friendly. He explains what he is doing along the way and what he is fining. He also gives concrete suggestions on making improvements (without trying to sell you on anything). He is very thorough; even went up the roof during winter. Overall, we had a good experience.

Home Inspecting

I hired Mr.Brent about a week ago.
He showed up right on time, did inspection over the snow covered ice roofs without hesitation.Check every thing even we can't see or beyond reach. Found 4 leaking inside, 2 out side. which could be a disaster later on. Well armed with decent equipments.
Above all his price was very competetive.
I defenitly recommend him as an accompany for the first step of you precious home purchasing.

Home Inspection for our First house

I found Brent through homestars. I was cautioned by many people to hire a professional for home-inspection and I am glad that we hired Brent for the job. We as a first time home buyer didn't know much and asked a lot of questions. Brent was polite and was answering all the questions patiently, he explained everything (even the small things that I wasn't expecting). Not only did he answered all our questions during inspection, he also said if you have any questions later on even 3-10 months from now, he will answer them.
I would definitely recommend him to all my friends and anyone reading this, especially first time home buyers. "And never trust the inspector your Agent recommends".

Thank you so much Rahil for taking the time to leave me a review and for the kind words as well! No no, its good to ask a lot of questions! I try to explain everything clearly but I respect the fact that not everyone knows what I am talking about so I encourage as many questions as you have. Interesting point about the agents inspector comment. I would always encourage a person to do a little homework on an inspection company, whether it be recommended from the realtor or not. A lot of "funny" things can go on between the two parties, and you just want to make sure that the inspection company's only source of business isn't from the realtor. Thanks again Rahil! Thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home inspection for newly bought house

I found Brent through Homestars. My husband and I are first time home buyers and wanted to know what we were getting into. Bryant was so thorough and pointed out a couple of things outside the house that violated city code but could easily be fixed. He checked everything in the house thoroughly and explained everything so well. He also didn't nickel and dime with the thermal camera like some people do, and explained the features of the house. We are really breathing a sigh of relief thanks to him. Excellent eye for detail and would highly recommend!

Thank you soooo much Nav for taking the time to leave me a review!!! You don't know how much I truely appreciate it! First off, enjoy your beautiful home. There several things that I would like to comment on, first off, you see that prelisting inspection report that the listing agent provided? Throw it in the garbage. If a home inspector can't tell the difference between 100AMP service to a 200AMP service I wouldnt put too much faith into him for the rest of the home. Second, you make a very interesting comment, "also didn't nickel and dime with the thermal camera", whats odd. I have no idea why people are paying home inspectors a lot of extra money for this service. Even better I can't believe that a home inspector has the nerve to ask extra. It's just another handy tool in my belt that I use to give the most accurate inspection I can provide to people. Thank you so much again Nav! All the best with the home and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home inspection

We recently bought a 40 year old house and we found Brent through Homestars for the inspection. We are first time house owners and we were worried about finding any major problems.

Brent arrived at the property right on time, even got there before us. He was very thorough with the inspection and caught every little detail. He was also very patient in answering our questions and concerns.

After the inspection, we received a detailed report next day by email. Brent was also happy to answer any additional questions we had.

We are very satisfied with the service and would definitely recommend Brent to our friends.
