We called for an inspection because we noticed that the trim pieces around some of the windows and doors seemed to be spreading farther and farther apart. Also, there was an existing crack above a door that seemed to be getting worse as well. Tom was awesome. He came out for the free inspection as listed on Angie's List and brought Kent - one of his repair guys that he was training to do inspections. They were very thorough and walked us through the house with them - explaining everything he was looking for and what the diff... read more

Business response:

"Excellent, I love a happy ending, good job on taking care of those other items too before we came out, your house would thank you personally if it could!

He did suggest that I could install a "Simpson Strap" across one of the cracks for reinforcement myself (presumably not a big enough job to make it worth the company's time) and that I improve the drainage around the house, which is on a hillside. I felt that his professionalism and frankness was worthy of a positive review here, even though I did not end up hiring them... read more

Business response:

"Hello, Well I'm glad to hear that things turned out well in terms of the inspection, I did want to be sure to clarify that IF the one crack had truly warranted correction, we would be happy to take care of it for you. It does often happen where a foundation has so little wrong with it that even if nothing were done to the few small issues, there is little to no chance of any adverse reactions as a result of having not done corrections. When this is the case, my Inspectors know to make it clear that the issue of not of much ... read more
