Great experience having our home inspection done by John and Larissa. Everything was so well explained, with a detailed inspection sent listing priority items to focus on now, and things to keep in mind for the future. Thanks so much John and Larissa! :)

Great service. John was very nice and kind and allowed us to follow around as he inspected the exterior and interior of the home. The inspection report was done very well and allowed us to see what the problems were and how we can fix them.

My Fiancee and I had a last minute viewing and a split decision to call for a Home Inspection before putting a non-conditional offer in. Giving John a call based on his reviews, the night before we needed it, and he was nothing but exceptionally cooperative in helping us on a last minute notice. John was able to be there immediately the next morning and did a very thorough job with an excellent report that I am beyond thankful for in the process of taking care of our new home. Thank you John, everyone should give him a call for any inspection needs.

I had shopped around and requested multiple sample reports from a few inspectors in the area and was most impressed by John Binder's notes and attention to detail when comparing to his competitors. His report was comprehensive and clearly showed a lot of time input. He was patient and made more than enough time for me to ask every question I had about the house. He spent around 3 hours testing and covering the house top to bottom, snapping detailed and useful pictures along the way. Most notably - John made sure he went into the inspection ports in the basement and ended up finding a large basement
