I would recommend Fred's service to everyone.
Thank you for a great job!! Rating: 5 (August 2008)
- Leeanna Trail, Homeowner
Fred was very thorough and when the inspections were
completed he went over the entire report with the buyer and myself.
He answered all the questions that we had and explained
in great detail the problems that needed to be addressed immediately.
He was very informative and knowledgeable about his job. He gave
the buyer a copy of the report before he left. I will use him for
all my home inspections in the future. Rating: (August 2008)

Fred found a problem that the builder told us
they fixed but hadn't. Rating: 5 (August 2008)
- Ben Gayoba, Homeowner
Our past experience with home inspectors has not always
been the best. We have been using Fred exclusively for about 2 years.
We find him to alway be professional, kind, caring, and understanding.
We get the report back faster than anyone else we use. Hard
copy and an email. He has gone above the normal to accomodate us
when we are pressed for time. Fred is our first and most times the
only home inspector we will recommend. Rating: 5 (July 2008)

Hi Fred, Thank you for doing such a great job on my
clients recent purchase. I referred you to a friend of mine. She
and her husband built a brand new home about a year ago and are
looking to do a home inspection prior to the one year anniversary
of the home. I don't know if they're experiencing any problems or
just trying to head off any issues prior to the expiration of the
builder's warranty. I was so impressed with your work and
professionalism that I knew you were the right person for
this job! I look forward to working with you again! (December 2006)

Fred was GREAT. I knew that my customer and I were
going to get the best service possible and actually at an affordable
price for the work that was done. Fred checked and documented everything.
What was great was the infrared work he did. I think that's
just the best, especially in some of these units that have been
slapped and painted for quick move in. You really need to
know what's behind the walls! Rating: 5 Stars (June 2009)

the property or choose not to. Rating: 5 (August 2008)
