Allen made the whole inspection very easy.
He explained what he was going to do before he started. He gave
us a lot of useful information about the house itself. Then told
us step by step his findings and recommendations. We are well pleased
with the job he did. (Fernandina Beach, FL) Rating: 5 Stars

Allen did a thorough job of inspecting and explaining
things he found. I used your service because in Florida we are succeptable
to moisure we can't see causing problems. The thermal imaging is
an excellent tool. You are a little more expensive than other providers,
however with the additional tools that you use, and the complete
reporting, who wants to skimp on the biggest purchase of your life.
There is value in what you pay for. Rating: 5 Stars (Jacksonville,

Dear Mr. Conway, Because I was unable to attend the
inspection with Mr. Schimmelmann, I want to thank you and him for
the thoroughness of the report. It was excellent and extremely well
documented with photos of all of the problems he discovered. Because
of the report, I am currently negotiating with the seller to either
make the necessary repairs or I will rescind my offer. You
very well may have prevented me from making a bad purchase and I
greatly appreciate it. Thank you to Mr. Schimmelmann for doing his
job so professionally. --Cathryn Robbins, Home buyer
The service exceeded my expectations.
Mr. Schimmelmann conducted this inspection in the most courteous,
proficient, trustworthy and professional manner. (Middleburg, FL)

I was happy with the speed a final report was
developed. We had the inspection on our home performed in
the morning and by 5pm that evening we received the report. Rating:

I found “HomePro” to be a very good choice on my part.
Five months ago we used a different company on the purchase
of another house and he was not as through as Allen. The
other guys missed a lot of things that me as a home buyer spotted
after they left and I’m not even in the business. It goes back to
the old saying “you get what you pay for". Rating: 5 Stars

Allen, I cannot thank you enough for such a thorough
and detailed report of your fact finding mission concerning the
problems involved with our property. I am sure if things were a
little different, as with concerns for my Mother, you could have
done an even more in depth detailed inspection of the problems I
have seen for years and now I have the confirmation of from
a neutral third party. I know there are some more hidden
problems under the surface, and your detailed report will only help
to get the ball rolling here to take care of each and every one
of these problems to minimize any future damage and or more problems.
This report today is the impetus to get these problems fixed so
at a future date any sale of this property will only be a formality
of the buyer signing the paperwork. If you or the company you represent
ever need a recommendation from a satisfied customer, please do
not hesitate to contact me or simply use this e-mail as one. The
company came highly recommended, and you as an employee represented
them with class and dignity. Once again thank you very much, Don
Howard (Jacksonville, FL) Homeowner
We have had a lot of experience with home inspections
and Allen from HomPro is by far the best we have ever worked with.
The attention to detail was exemplary as was concern and respect
for us and the sellers. It is absolutely refreshing in this
day and age of "Customer No-Service" to be treated so
well. Rating: 5 Stars (Fleming Island, FL) -- Camillo J. DiFrancesco,

I really appreciated Allen's promptness, thoroughness
and willingness to answer all of our questions. I was so
glad that he was willing to drive to Waycross so we could take advantage
of the infrared camera technology! Thanks so much for a great inspection!
Rating: 5 Stars (Waycross, GA) -- Kristin Marie Walsh, Home Buyer
Mr. Conway, Allen was very professional and thorough
and explained everything to me. The report was great, accompanied
with many photographs to document and help pinpoint the problems.
The report came very quickly, and even though there was a need for
an addendum, that came very quickly also. I feel comfortable as
a buyer that there should be no huge surprises with this house!.
BTW Mr. Conway, I picked your company because of you on your radio
talk show. My boyfriend has listened to you for a long time and
now I do too! We love DYI and he knew they had consulted your company
too.. another reason to have chosen you. Rating: 5 Stars (Middleburg,

Jennifer and I were extremely impressed by Allen. He was prompt,
courteous, clear, and concise. Allen did a very thorough job, showed
and explained to us the defects in the house. He also let us know
approximately how much it would cost to fix those problems (Less
than $1000 or more than $1000). Allen's detailed report included
pictures and infrared images of the whole inspection to include
defects. He completed the inspection and emailed a detailed report
the same day of the inspection. I would recommend Mr. D. Allen
Schimmelmann to anybody that wants the best and impartial home inspection
that the industry has to offer. Thank you Allen, my wife
and I appreciate your hard work, integrity, and mannerism. Rating:

We've used your company three times lately and
every time is a fantastic experience. Allen's expertise
was great - he took his time and while the property appeared clean
and in good working condition, he did find several areas that need
to be repaired, one of which was MAJOR and a safety hazard - an
electrical panel issue that needs immediate replacement. So.....we
appreciate his expertise and his attention to detail. He worked
diligently despite the fact that there were four people talking
loudly during the entire inspection and report producing process.
He provided an extremely thorough inspection, outstanding reports,
and was a pleasure to work with. We'll ask for him again! Also
- your unsung hero is Amie - she's provided perfect administrative
support to all three of our recent inspections. One more
thing.....GO FALCONS - BEAT NAVY!!!! (from two good-natured, retired
USAF warriors, with a daughter now at the USAF Academy!) Rating:

I attended most of the inspection with Allen. He was
very helpful, and also did a great job explaining what he was observing.
He also attended to every little problem I was curious about and
helped. Would certainly recommend Allen to everyone.
(Jacksonville, FL) Rating: 5 Stars -- Robert Morgan, Homebuyer
The report was easy to read and understand. It was
a very detailed and in depth inspection and I was vary happy with
all the things he found that I myself would not have noticed.
I also like how the inspector gives you some back ground on himself
so you know a little about the person you are relying on to make
sure this will be a good home purchase. From start to finish
was a friendly and informative, thank you to all at Home Pro. (Jacksonville,

Allen was fabulous! Very knowlegeable and paid close
attention to detail. He showed me things about the house that
I never would have known about without the inspection. He
took his time and did the job right! Rating: 5 Stars -- Rembrant

Allen was a great inspector as well as a great person.
I will recommend him to all the people that I know that are interested

Allen was extremely helpful and pointed out all areas
of concern. The report was very detailed and not only will
be helpful in the purchase but as well as preparing for future enhancements
