Testimonials
To whom it may concern,
So you want a home inspection. Do you really want to know what you are buying? If so, I highly recommend Curtis Home Inspection. You will get a well organized professional documented folder complete with pictures and a priority listing. It will cover roofing, insulation, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, structural, drainage, pests, yard work, safety issues, doors and windows, and cosmetic repairs … and yes, what animals and birds frequented the yard during the inspection.
I chose Curtis upon the recommendation of others. I bought a house from 3000 miles away and I needed to know exactly what I needed to do … before I signed the contract, before I started driving across country to move in, before winter comes, etc. Curtis’ report was everything I needed and more. I have a “honey do” list that will keep me busy for a long time.
Curtis was honest, thorough, efficient, and easy to work with, and put my mind at ease buying a house from the other side of the continent.
THANK YOU Curtis, Randy and Renee Brooks. August, 2011
Dear Curtis
When we were looking at our new place in Point Roberts we didn’t know anyone local to do our inspection. We’re so lucky and glad that someone recommended you! We were very pleased with the thorough inspection that you did with us and the comprehensive report that we received the very next day. Now we have confidence about what needs attention in the house and what is in good condition.
It was a real pleasure working with you – thanks again Curtis. Connie Bonsteel
Curtis,
I have encountered several building inspectors, but none of them have been able to demonstrate such meticulous attention to detail and simultaneously the ability to look at the house as a whole thing, almost as a living creature! Curtis’ work is very thorough and precise. Also, the presentation of the final inspection report is amazing. It is full of information, complete with pictures, and the homeowner’s manual is included!
