In both cases he found some important things, diagnosed the root cause, and put us in a far better position to negotiate with the sellers. He takes out a lot of the anxiety about house buying. I'm pretty knowledgeable about house construction, but Fred's expertise puts me to shame. He couples this expertise with tremendous thoroughness, professionalism, and willingness to explain that makes an unbeatable combination. read lessAlan Finn6/21/2023

I've attended many, many inspections by many different Home Inspectors and Fred isn't just competent, careful and comprehensive - he knows how to explain to laymen (like myself) the why's and how's in a way that we can understand. His tips on home maintenance, improvements and things to watch for add value beyond the inspection itself. I've never gone wrong following Fred's advice and everyone I have referred to him has been over the moon happy with his work. Thanks Fred! read lessMickey Baumer2/21/2019We had a great experience with Fred. He's extremely knowledgeable and detail oriented.
