I had to replace the smoke detectors in my house before I could sell it. Once I hired them, they took care of everything. They replaced them all and set up an appointment with the fire department for the inspection. BeaconLight Home Inspection did a great job!

Mike did our inspection during our first time home purchase and was absolutely amazing. From the minute we met him it was clear he is super knowledgeable, cares about his customers and is very kind. He was very thorough throughout the whole inspection and gave us a great report. The best part is he didn't mind at all us and our family going along with him and welcomed us asking all kinds of questions. He also did a fantastic job educating us about the house and giving us some tips for maintenance that will for sure save us thousands of dollars and a lot of headache in the future. Highly highly
