Chris: Thanks for the quick report, I will use the information next Monday. Linda & I would each like to thank you for both of the inspections you conducted. The inspections were very complete, and highlighted many items that we as home buyers would have overlooked. If you ever need a reference let us know. John Hoffman

Bethalto Christopher, The owners agreed to pay half for the service panel upgrades and had the chimney flashed. We closed on the house today. I thought you did an excellent job covering everything. Many thanks!! Terry Studnicki.
Wood River Chris, I just wanted to say thanks again for the home inspection. This is my first house and I had no idea what I needed to look for in purchasing a home. I was very impressed with the amount of care and detail you put into your inspection. You were in depth and extremely helpful on the countless questions/concerns I had. The report was very clear and easy to understand. I will be SURE to recommend you to anyone I know of looking for a house. The level of service you provided was worth every penny! Thank you again! Kyle McGuire
Caseyville 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,
Glen Carbon Thanks for the excellent service. Your inspection Report is very informative and structured very well. Will recommend your services to further home buyers. Thanks, Venus Tillmon,
Fairview Heights 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 also very 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
