Holley Home Inspections – Unreliable! Do NOT recommend!

I recently engaged Holley Home Inspections for a home inspection on a property I was considering purchasing. Unfortunately, I must express my disappointment with the quality of the inspection and the subsequent report provided by the company.
While the inspector himself seemed knowledgeable during the on-site visit, I was shocked to find that the report I received was incomplete and unreliable. Several crucial details that were verbally discussed during the inspection were completely missing from the report. Areas that required attention were either mentioned in passing or not covered at all, leaving me with a superficial understanding of the property's condition.
What added to my frustration was the lack of professionalism displayed when I raised my concerns. Upon realizing the inadequacies of the report, I reached out to the owner of the company, expressing my disappointment and requesting a refund due to the subpar service I had received. To my surprise, my concerns were completely ignored, and the owner even went so far as to suggest that the report was thorough and accurate.
This dismissive attitude towards a legitimate concern only compounded my disappointment. As a customer, I expected a certain level of accountability and a willingness to address any shortcomings. Instead, I was met with resistance and a refusal to acknowledge the obvious gaps in the report.
It is with great regret that I cannot recommend Holley Home Inspections based on my experience. A reliable home inspection is a crucial aspect of the property buying process, and unfortunately, this company failed to deliver on its promises. I strongly urge anyone seeking a home inspection to carefully consider their options before choosing this particular service.

Klen;
On behalf of Holley Home Inspections, I'm sorry that you're dissatisfied with the report you received.
For 11+ years my company and I have performed some 4,000 inspections, most to overwhelmingly positive reviews. So I take it seriously when a client thoroughly dismisses the work we've done in a public forum.
We approach every inspection systematically: it's a comprehensive examination of the building from the basement to the roof, and the report we submit is structured to accurately reflect the salient information those inspections are designed to address. Notwithstanding, I make it clear to all clients at the outset; if there are questions or concerns after receipt of the report, I will personally address them by phone or in writing.
To be fair, I did respond in a subsequent email to the report's purported "deficiencies". In fact, that's what has brought us to this impasse; I cannot, personally or professionally, report on things that aren't either evident or relevant.
I don't know what more I can add. You are not pleased with the report you received, but in reviewing what was originally submitted to you, there's really nothing that I or my associate could or would, in good conscience, change.

Site Inspection

Mr. Holley is a thorough no-nonsense professional, he will undertake to the best of his knowledge and ability to give you a detailed and thorough report that illustrates the issues with your problem. His demeanor is professional, complete transparency where he exercises due diligence in conveying his professionalism and experience. Enough cannot be said about his overwhelming experience. If you want the desired result and are willing to go the extra mile in retaining someone who knows what to look for with many years of experience, I suggest you look no further.

Professional and thorough home inspection

Both Michaels were a pleasure to deal with in booking and during the home inspection. They were very knowledgable about all the aspects of the home, and were very good at explaining what the more critical things to pay attention to were, while still noting every smaller issue or detail.

After the inspection, a verbal summary was given of all the findings, later followed by a detailed report the next day.

Would highly recommend!

Home inspection

Mike arranged a visit within a day of my contacting him. He offered expert advice and made solid recommendations. I would highly recommend him as a highly knowledgeable, experienced and home inspector. He assessed the outside of our house and told us that we can avoid an expensive waterproofing option.

Extremely thorough and very professional

Michael Holley and his team are very professional and thorough with their home inspections. I have worked with his team member Michael Greenberg on a couple of inspections and had a fantastic experience. Micheal was very patient and showed up before the scheduled time. He took detailed pictures and answered all our questions. He has a wealth of knowledge about construction materials and various codes and standards and will always do the right thing. They have a wealth of knowledge and I highly recommend Holley inspections for both residential and commercial inspections.

Had a little bit of an issue with having proper knowledge of home inspection. I luckily found Mike's business through a Google search. Let me just say I am absolutely pleased with the professionalism, and knowledge of mike. He helped me to understand all the Liability, and potential problems from not having a proper home inspection done. If your are in the market for home inspection he's your guy!

Inspect and Repair Flat Roof

I contacted Holley Home Inspections when my flat roof started leaking like a faucet, even after being repaired for the exact same issue earlier in the year by a certified roofer. I spoke with Mike who immediately understood the issue and sent out one if his team, who Mike described as a flat roof expert. Using a special infrared camera and visual inspection the issue was identified and properly repaired all in the same day. I doubt I can properly express how relieved and thankful we are. Let me also add that I honestly believe Mike is the most honest, caring, empathetic individual I have ever met in the renovation/repair business. Mike takes pride in delivering his services and ensuring that the outcome is a win-win scenario. I wish I would have investigated Holley Home Inspections sooner. I sincerely thank you Mike for your service; the amount of relief we feel in knowing the issue is resolved is indescribable.

Thanks Frank, I'm glad your roof issues were solved.I must say that is due to Carlos the roofer. He is very good and calls a spade a spade. Great review!
