Areas of Expertise

Home & Building Inspections - A significant part of our business comes from former clients, either as repeat clients or referrals.  Our primary area of expertise is on customer service in providing a thorough, professional and qualified inspection.  We spend the time required to ensure the client is provided with a comprehensive understanding of their prospective home's overall condition. 

We tend to have two types of Realtor referrals: 

  1. The first type understands the importance of providing their clients with an inspector referral that will professionally serve their clients needs, qualified to address most situations and as thorough as reasonably possible to minimize risk of consequential surprises.  
  2. The second is Realtors themselves, their families and clients they know want a higher level of service - detailed, experienced, ASHI certified and service oriented.

Jon,

Thanks for the timely and professional service.

My wife and I have purchased 7 homes in the past 18 years and have had home inspections for each. The inspection your company preformed on our most recent purchase was the most careful, professional and complete we have ever experienced. Your report was very detailed and well documented with narrative as well as photographs. Your detailed work has increased our confidence that we are buying a quality home and that there will be no "unpleasant maintenance surprises".

Feel free to use us as a reference in the future.

Sincerely,

Clark & Colleen W.

Just wanted to drop a line and say what a wonderful job Jon Rudolph did inspecting the home we are about to purchase. Jon is a stand up guy and was very professional. We would definitely recommend him to anyone we know because he was so detail oriented. He inspected the house located at: **** ************* Way, Wellington, CO 80549 on March 1, 2004...We would like to say thanks again for a job well done.

Jon,

Thank you for such a thorough and professional inspection. Since I am a first-time home buyer I had numerous questions, many of which were unrelated to the inspection process. Yet, you patiently answered the questions you could and redirected me to other resources when necessary. As a result, the problems with the home are being fixed, I am a more informed home buyer, and I now feel very confident with my buying decision.

Your confidentiality and follow-up was also greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Tressa M.

Hi Jon,

I wanted to thank you for your flexibility & quick response to get the house on ********** **** inspected on such short notice. With a little luck, all will go through smoothly this afternoon. I will have my plumber friend check into replacing the toilet in the master bath today.................

Thanks again for all your help & I definitely will recommend your services.

Sincerely,

Jennifer Q.

Jon,

I had the privilege of working with you twice! On the first house, a foreclosure, information learned during the inspection made me reconsider my decision to buy. Along with a lot of cosmetic improvements that I was expecting ... and all new appliances needed ... you found that the furnace and water heater were near the end of their useful lives (note: several exhaust leaks). But most of all, you discovered the leak from the toilet into the kitchen cabinets. Needless to say there were just too many problems that I wasn't willing to pay for. It was a very thorough inspection.

So when I found a second property, I called Jon first. He was flexible with scheduling and fit me in right away. Again, he did a very thorough job and had the inspection document to me shortly after he finished the inspection. And I got a discount for the second inspection ... which helped my pocketbook!

I would recommend I.D. Property Inspections to others!

Thanks,

Jean B.

Thank you Jon. I received your email yesterday and will get the copy to Tom. Thank you for always making my clients happy with your work!

This is my first home, and the entire process appeared so overwhelming at first. With the help of I.D. Property Inspections, I feel much more relieved. From the beginning, when I first called to set up an appointment, I was greeted by a real person, not voicemail, even though it was a weekend. The appointment was able to be scheduled according to my needs, and the price was competitive if not lower than others. The inspection itself was very professional and informative - and the printouts/summary helped me share the information with my realtor and family in a language I could understand. I would definitely recommend this inspector to friends/family - it was well worth my time and the cost. Thank you so much!

Jon,

Your inspection was invaluable. As a follow up I had the siding, electrical panel and gutters checked. We did find concerns and were able to come to an agreement with the sellers on what to do next. The closing will take place next week and I have peace of mind regarding the home I am purchasing.

I would be happy to refer others to your service.

Thank you for your responsive and efficient home inspection on W. Elizabeth. The report was the finest I've seen. I feel that all of the systems in the home were inspected properly and this gives me confidence in my purchase decision as well as a good insurance policy. I liked having the photos in the report especially since I was not able to attend the inspection. Also, thanks for the follow-up on the circuit breaker issue concerning the air conditioning unit. Keep up the great work! I will definitely use your company again as well as recommend you to my associates.

Mr. Rudolph,

I just wanted to thank you again for your professionalism during the inspection of my house last Saturday. You exceeded my expectations and taught me a lot about owning a house. You gave me the peace of mind that I am buying a quality home. My builder took your report and fixed everything you cited. The presentation of your report was very organized and efficient and is something I will refer to as long as I own my house. I appreciate you answering all of my questions and being so thorough. I feel that paying you was money well spent.

Thanks again!

Jon,

I wanted to take some time to show my appreciation for the work performed on Dec 01 2005. I usually don't take my time to give feed back, but the work performed was so exceptional I can't pass up this opportunity.

It is very hard to find someone that is honest, impartial, and knowledgeable no matter what field they work in. I look forward to referring your name to other future home buyers for your services.

My wife and I are very particular people and we ask many questions. I always felt comfortable asking them with you. You went over your allotted time by two hours and every concern of mine was addressed.

Because the report was in my hand 30 min. after the inspection (clean, clear, and complete with pictures) we were able to make an informed, confident decision on the house that day.

Please know the fee we paid for your services was well worth it and I actually felt cheap not make the check out for more money. If only money grew on trees:)

Thank you

Jon,

Thank you so much for your inspection of xxxxxxx Street, after your inspection revealed serious problems, we decided to cancel the contract. I feel that your expertise and experience saved us from making a potentially very costly mistake. Supposedly the house had been inspected just last July by xxx xxxx xxxx Inspection Service in Loveland, a company hired by the seller, and found to be fine.

We are under contract to purchase another house at xxxxx Street in Loveland and need an inspection on this house also. .....

Thank you very much.

Jon,

Thanks so much for getting the building permit info. Is this information that I am able to get by calling the city as well?

I'm happy to refer people to you because I think that you do an excellent job!

Jon,

Mary and I were reviewing the inspection you did for us, April 3rd. We want to tell you how pleased we were with not only the inspection, but your professional approach. We appreciate how you treated us. Because of this, we wish to say "Thank you" once again, and, as a token of our appreciation we ask that you accept the enclosed check for an additional $XXX. We hope to visit with you again someday.

Regards, Tom R.

Jon,

My experience with your company was nothing short of spectacular. From the initial phone call it was obvious to me that I.D. Property Inspections is a company of great integrity. The initial call was handled in such a professional manner that I immediately stopped searching and set up the inspection. Things only got better from there. Your knowledge of your trade and straightforward communication style made me much more confident in my home buying decision. The report was excellent and the attention to detail was quite impressive. I also really appreciated the time that you spent going over all of my questions. This is my fourth home, but my first in this area. I will never use another company for future home inspections and I look forward to referring friends and family to your business with great confidence that they will be well taken care of. Thank you for doing an outstanding job!

Regards,

Mike P. M.

Jon,

Thank you again for the well done, detailed home inspection on the home we are buying on xxxxxxx. We so appreciate your time and that you went through every single detail with us, not to mention the detailed report. We feel confident that we are buying a great home, especially now that you have taken such a close look at it!

We would definitely refer you to our friends!

Sincerely,

Debi & Brian S.

Jon,

Thank you very much for your insight and professionalism. We really appreciate your hard work in helping us with prioritizing the maintenance and upkeep of what amounts to a family heirloom.

We will definitely refer any business we can to ID Property Inspections.

Thanks again,

Thank you for your prompt response to our needs to get our inspection done quickly and for sending this report to us right away!

Your attention to detail, thoroughness, and professionalism is refreshing and greatly appreciated!

Jon,

I just wanted to say, I appreciate you coming out and all of your notes. I met with {builder} this morning, gave them what you gave me, all the items are going to be addressed. The only problem is that they don't require drip edging on these homes, as where the shingles overhang.

Also, the inspector {builder} was quite amazed; he'd never seen a sump pump cavity filled with gravel before. So that was a serious issue that you caught.

They're going to hit every item on that list; most appreciative that you came out, I'm more impressed with the fact that they are going to address all those issues and that there are no questions, no issues or concerns.

So, I'm one happy customer, one happy camper. I'll pass this information on to my two neighbors and hopefully one day soon they will be calling you soon for the same level of service that I received.

I hope all continues to go well with you and your business.

Thanks again for the service you've rendered me.

Dear Jon

We just wanted to say thanks for the service that we received from you yesterday.

Your inspection was extremely thorough and the report was well written, timely and very informative.

I was very pleased that you took the time to walk us through the property and explain any issues clearly and concisely, along with giving useful advice with regards to how to rectify problems and who to contact regarding further expert opinion.

We really appreciate your service and professionalism

Kind regards

Steve and Chris H.
