Best home inspector you would ever need.

Recently went home hunting. Rick is the best possibly saved me a world of hurt on a house we had put an offer on, within ten minutes we left, saved some money in the process since the find of major foundation issues were a surprise. Eventually found a better suited home less headaches and Rick came by and gave us much more confidence to buy this house. If there is a next time maybe he will bring his dog along for us to meet.

Hi Randy. Thanks for the great review. I'm so glad you stayed clear of the first home. But your new place is great. Love the yard. I hope you enjoy your home for many years. I'll be here when your ready to move again. I think we're at 3 inspections so far, so I'm sure I'll see you in the future. Take care.

Great inspection

Rick was great,
He was early and very professional, as soon as I arrived he took me on a tour of what he had seen already and pointed out some problem issues. Then provided me on how they can be fixed and how soon they should be dealt with.

Great service and person would recommend to any one looking for a good inspection.

House Inspection

Rick was awesome, helpful, personable and thorough. He was on time and went through everything with us explaining each thing he was looking at. we highly recommend Rick he puts a lot of thought in his work and it's easy to tell he really takes his job seriously. After the inspection he emails us a very descriptive PDF explaining everything he had looked at and spotted! There were also pictures showing what he had found. Very happy with the service would definitely recommend to others! Money well spent

Home inspection

Rick did a wonderful inspection for us. His scheduling was quick and convenient. He started external inspection before we arrived. He was thorough, patient, fully equipped, and communicated effectively to us in simple terms of how to care of our new home. I would recommend him for all my friends.

Great work Rick!

Home Inspection

Rick Clayton was great. I would 100% recommend him. He was punctual, extremely polite and very thorough with his inspection of my first house. He had all his equipment ready and didn't waste time looking around the property doing a thorough inspection in a timely manner.

Amazing service and comprehensive report!!

Rick did an amazing job on our home inspection. He was able to come on very short notice and was able to identify multiple issues that I would not have thought to check. He was very polite, thorough and above all professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rick to anyone looking for a home inspector. Thanks again!

Home inspection

Rick is a competent and professional. I am French and he spent some time explaining words I didn't know. He also answered all our questions during the inspection. He inspected the outside and the inside of the house carefully and gave recommandations. The report he provided is exhaustive, all the points discussed during the on-site inspection are reviewed and detailed with pictures. My wife and me are very happy with the seriousness and the quality of Rick's work. We will use his services again for sure in the future! Thanks Rick!
