Client Testimonials March 26, 2010 CBC Home Inspections Christopher, It’s not often that I experience exceptional customer service, so when I do, I feel strongly in expressing my appreciation. You were meticulous and never rushed in the inspection of my pending home. I found your report to be reader friendly, but also liked the extra information provided by way of pictures in problem areas. In addition, you took the time to research a couple of key critical equipment pieces by way of serial number. I have shared my experience with many people and will keep an ear open for anyone in the market for buying a home, as I will highly recommend your services. Thank you for making one aspect of my home buying experience a stress free event…for that I am very grateful! Sincerely, Tami Joyce Wed. 11/25/2009
Chris, Everything has gone well . The inspection uncovered some serious concerns, such as the hidden exposed wiring and specific roof issues, that we were able to have addressed. Was the report easy to read and understand? Too much, too little information?
We were happy with the detail provided. The diagrams helped us to understand the problems significantly.
Do you feel I covered everything you were specifically concerned with and clearly explaining all defects with enough detail?
Yes.
Overall were you completely satisfied with the inspection, my ability, and the final report?
Indeed, we are completely satisfied.
If you have any questions or comments regarding anything you feel I did right, or wrong, please feel free to comment and let me know.
Again, we felt it was quite thorough, and saved us time and headaches by allowing us to present serious problems before closing and before the occupancy inspection.
Would you hire me again and/or refer my service to your friends or family?
Absolutely.
Thanks again.

I was so happy with Chris as a home inspector that I volunteered to write this testimonial. Chris is extremely knowledgeable and thorough in his examination of a home. I had him inspect a house that had been inspected months previously, and he found several important issues that had been missed in the earlier report. He was alsovery willing to explain exactly what was wrong and its implications. Chris was prompt, courteous and accommodating with scheduling. His write-up was very thorough with great pictures. I can't think of anything else I would ask for from an inspector. I would recommend him without reservation to anyone who is in the process of buying a house.
Sincerely,
James Humphrey Ocober 17, 2009I'm sorry for the delay in my reply; I've had trouble with my computer at home and really only get to read email at work. Thank you Christopher for the thorough inspection and for letting me make a nuciance of myself! I closed on the house on November 25'th and hope to be settled in time to decorate for Christmas. Two city inspectors came out to check the main beam in the basement. One didn't say too much about it, but the other inspector said it looked undersized to him. I'm planning on getting some estimates as well as reading as much as I can about this sort of thing. We'll see how it goes. Thanks again! If anyone I know needs a home inspection I'll be sure to send them your way. 'Jill Sent: Mon Sept. 29. 2008. Thanks for the follow-up Chris, sorry to get back with you so late. If you remember we had to go out of town next day. No problems with the report. We were able to get the builder to fix some things. When I need you again I’ll be sure to contact you.Sincerely, Heath **akstis

Are you looking for a qualified home inspector? I am here to assist you in making a confident decision about your property investment. Whether you're buying a new property and want to be sure of what you're purchasing ... or selling a property and want to eliminate possible problems that could delay or lose a sale ... or maybe you just want a professional home inspector to inspect and advise you on the condition and maintenance or safety recommendations of your current home... or need a knowledgeable third party inspection of defects before your new home builders warranty expires, I am here to help. I am confident in my ability and knowledge of building science and that your decision to hire me will be an accurate one. My state of the art inspection report will give you a clear picture of what you're investment is. Inspections generally pay for themselves with the present defects and other potential problems that are discovered, sometime many times over. At the conclusion of the inspection, you will be significantly more educated of the home you have chosen to purchase or presently own. I want you to feel free to ask me any questions you may have during the inspection process. I will point out the visible problems I discover and explain the seriousness they represent at the time of inspection. 
Call Chris -- 618-560-9986 -- for a quality home inspectionThe average residential home inspection I perform involves 3 to 4 hours on site, sometimes more, to record all of the necessary information needed. Additional time at the office for research and generating a full written report, which will be available within 24 to 48 hours. All of my property inspections conform with the Illinois Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics, ( Illinois License # 450.003704). Home foreclosures are escalating to an all time high, putting thousands of homes on the market, many with unknown deficiencies. Do not buy a foreclosed property without having it properly inspected by a qualified home inspector. Even though you may believe you are making a good investment, it could evolve into a money pit with many unforeseen problems that could have been prevented by having a certified home inspection completed first. At some foreclosure sales the home cannot be entered prior to the sale. With permission from the lending institution you may be able to get a complete inspection. At minimum have an exterior inspection, which can reveal many negative defects and inform you of the construction quality of the home as well as future preventative aspects and key conditions of major (expensive) items such as the roof, foundation, windows, siding, and landscaping. Don't let your dream investment turn into another foreclosure. "I will make you this guarantee. If you will attend the inspection and be there with me, I will promise you that when it has ended...if you are not totally satisfied with the quality of the inspection, tell me before you receive your report and if I cannot resolve any issues you may have, your inspection will be absolutely free with no questions asked."
