Darren is very knowledgeable and professional. He conducted thorough inspection of our new home.

I would definitely recommend Darren and team for anyone conducting home inspection. read more

The team was great to work with. Darren and the team discovered a problem with one of my windows during a 1 year warranty inspection and saved me a lot of money and problems down the line. Very knowledgeable and shared some helpful tips. Highly recommend! read more

"I am beyond appalled by the treatment I received at this establishment. An employee--a bald man--was extremely rude and aggressive toward me without provocation. The situation became unacceptable when he began shouting racial slurs at me and attempting to start a physical fight read more

Darren is amazing! Very knowledgeable and professional. Excellent health and safety training and awareness. Detail oriented, and very experienced. He is a local person, so he knows the area very well. He was able to inspect both the roof and the crawlspace. Fantastic resource, and team member! I would definitely hire him again. read more

The inspectors showed up on time and did a thoughtful and thorough assessment of the property. Went over every aspect of the issues and concerns. Identified what was minor and moderate. Very pleased with the home inspection. read more

Darren was extremely helpful in helping us determine if we had any issues under our home. We didn't! Other than normal aging of an older home, Darren spoke to us about options to tighten some areas up, earthquake retrofit and some minor maintenance suggestions. He was extremely personable and knowledgeable and made me feel so much better about the occasional creaks you hear in an older house and one that is on a raised foundation. The written report with photos that followed after the inspection is exactly what you will need to show a contractor or foundation/subfloor specialist if needed. Thanks again Darren. read more

Excellent... Darren inspected with great detail my request (under the home, i have a raised foundation) he then inspected areas i did not think to request (fireplace , floor level etc) Before he left he patiently explained his findings, showed photos, and answered questions clearly -- this was above and beyond ---a written report is to follow... -- having my home inspected was a wise decision ... i now have additional, trusted information to move forward with my plan .... very much appreciate this company .. highly recommended .... read more

Paying what I did was worth the world to have peace of mind knowing I was buying something I wouldn't regret.Two people with different expertise checked the whole place I'm buying. In fact one was the owner. He let any of us ask as many questions as we wanted and was extremely helpful I would recommend them to everyone read more

Darren is by far the most CARING inspector ive ever seen. He cares about the house as if the house is his. He gave me THOROUGH inspection report but at the same time being very honest and realistic about what i need in the house, whats the priority for me to work on or fix. Even after the inspection is done, he continues staying in touch with me to ask me if i need any more help and when i ask him questions like if he can recommend me a plumber or handy man or even someone who can fix my window, HE IS THE GUY!!!! IM TELLING YOU he is the best inspector you could find out there! read more

Superb...Darren and Erik had excellent attention to detail, were reliable and available on short notice, and we discussed the results over the phone afterwards. Highly recommend this expert team of professionals! read more

I'm a real estate broker of 21 years, and Darren is the man I use for my own home purchase inspections. He knows more than most General Contractors I know. He finds the problems, tells you what caused them, and what it usually takes to fix them, and whether it's a cause for concerns or not. Darren and Eric are masters of their trade and I very highly recommend them for anyone 2ho needs a reliable and realistic home inspection. read more

Darren and Erik came out for my home inspection while in escrow and I couldn't have asked for a better team. They were incredibly detail-oriented and found areas of improvement I didn't realize we should've been looking out for. Darren and Erik took their time inspecting every nook and cranny of the house and offered great advice. I can't recommend them enough and I would hire them again in a minute! They also provided professional reports that were clear and easy to understand. read more

Joe is the nicest person, ever! I was so annoying, constantly changing appointment times to accommodate the sellers and texting Joe. He was so understanding and accommodating. My inspector was Aaron, he was amazing as well. He went above and beyond to explain all the problems in detail with us and show us pictures of everything. The general inspection is very thorough and worth every penny. I highly recommend using them. Thanks Joe and Aaron! You guys rock. read more

Sasha is very professional and thorough. She arrived on time, answered all our questions with detailed explanation. We received the detailed report the same day. I highly recommend AmeriSpec Inspection Services. read more

Since I started using Amerispec, I have been through four owners. Fortunately, they have good systems in place so home buyers get a report if factual condition, not an opinion of what does and does not need to be fixed now. Important if you are guiding a buyer and seller as to what they should ask for or have completed. As a home buyer myself, I have used AmeriSpec home inspectors on three if my past four purchases. The report they give, has served as a guide to get my property in good condition. read more

We watched as we watched them inspected our new home asking questions as we went they were very friendly and professional. Would gladly use them again thank you for taking time to explain issues. read more

For your home inspection needs look no further! I had come across AmeriSpec when looking for a home inspection service. Aaran Tibbs performed a home inspection on a home my husband and I are looking to purchase and I could not have been happier with the services provided. I now have have peace of mind now knowing that the inspection was done thoroughly and with extreme attention to detail. He was on time, professional, and answered all of our questions along the way. The inspection report was provided to me within a day of completing with pictures and details. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you AmeriSpec for making one part of buying a home a lot less stressful. read more

I have used AmeriSpec a few times, Darrin did an awesome job again!! I am an agent in the area, my client purchased a home in Simi Valley, with shortened inspection contingency periods...NO PROBLEM I CALLED Darrin!! He came out on Saturday!! He is the only inspector out there that has all the equipment!! And knows how to inspect a home!! Sewer inspection, NO PROBLEM!! Don't waste your money on inspectors, who recommend you get a sewer inspection, What are you paying them for?? Call Darrin who can truly inspect the home completely!! Darrin is a good inspector, knowledgeable, and thorough!! And as a realtor, who sees inspectors in my line of work... Darrin is the best!! I truly value people who do a good job!! read more

I called AmeriSpec for an inspection of a new home I was purchasing. Darren arrived on time and went straight to work. He did a thorough inspection, and briefed me afterwards on some of the big things that needed attention. He walked me through the aging of the water heater and AC unit, which gave me an idea of what I would be looking at in the future. All of my questions were answered with solutions, and even passed along people I could contact if needed. This made me feel very comfortable as a first time home buyer. A little over a month later I ran into an electrical panel issue where two breakers essentially burned up. I had it fixed, but I was still concerned if the panel itself was damaged. I gave Darren a call, and explained my situation. We scheduled a time first thing in the morning for him to come out. He brought of all his gadgets and scanned everything. The panel was fine. He also went over some other things he previously inspected a month prior with me. It's those extra things that come up as a home buyer that in the moment you don't see as an issue until well after you move in. Darren spent well over two hours of his time with me to reassure that everything was solid. I felt very confident after that, and couldn't appreciate it more. He taught me a lot. Again, making me feel great & cared for as a first time home buyer. read more

Brian, my inspector, was very thorough and did a professional job. He spent the time necessary to look at the home. He was very good at explaining each finding. Being a buyer in a new state gave me the confidence that I had made a good home choice. I was impressed with this company and Brian. read more

AmeriSpec is the third home inspection company I had used over the past year. We used one last year when our home was for sale and had a bad experience. This year we made an offer on a home and had another company come out. They did an OK job and just gave us a basic inspection and the inspector wasn't user friendly. We ended up canceling our sales transaction due to the home and its condition We found another home a week later and made an offer which was accepted. I called Joe at AmeriSpec to set up an appointment to inspect our potential new home. I found Joe to be very nice and accommodating for our time frame. Joe sent out Aaron to inspect our home. Aaron was very pleasant, outgoing, very thorough and worked hard. He pointed out a couple of areas of concern during the inspection. When he was finished he told my real estate agent and me that he was done. He then used his iPad and went through the entire inspection showing us very clear pictures, taking his time and asked if we had any concerns. Later in the early evening, I had our completed report waiting in my email inbox. I would highly recommend Joe & Aaron at AmeriSpec as they are very thorough, professional and did a great job. I was very satisfied with their work and report. John Spohn read more

I can't recommend enough inspector Aaron Tibbs, if you want to know the truth about what you are getting into. Every tiny problem was spotted, got a description, a picture, illustration of the proper function and a reference. I specifically recommend their drone roof inspection which revealed past leaks, new cracks and potential issues. Don't be worried, you are in the right hands! read more

Compliments all around for this company, if you want the job done efficiently and correctly go with this company. I will be using no one else but them. Aaron and his partner were extremely thorough and their report was very detailed. They even went into the attic which did not have an easy access and many inspectors would of skipped. Our real estate agent was very impressed and even our termite inspector knew of Aaron and had nothing but great things to say about them. Definitely quality work. read more

Very thorough, nice, and he explained the important items from inspection that needed attention. The report was very clear. Will use them again. read more

The AmeriSpec team completed our general and pool inspections for our recent escrow. They could not have been easier to work with or more on the ball. Super impressed by the attention to detail and advice given in the inspection report - helped us move forward accordingly with the property. It's sometimes hard to find a good inspector, but from the scheduling to the report, Amerispec was A++. read more

I simply cannot say enough about Joe and his team! Joe was super responsive and had our appointment scheduled within a couple of days. Aaron, our inspector, was super knowledgeable about all aspects of the home, was incredibly thorough and at the end of the inspection sat down with me, my husband and the agent and went through all of the pictures he took (and there were quite a few) and explained each one and let us ask questions to help us understand and all "be on the same page". We then had the complete, official report by the NEXT DAY allowing us to immediately schedule the appropriate contractors to come out and give us estimates on the issues that needed to be addressed. To just say THANK YOU would be an understatement. They were absolutely AMAZING and I could not recommend them enough! They deserve 10 stars! read more

Great inspectors! Very thorough and desire to help get to the bottom of the issue. Will gladly use them again.

Outstanding service. Comprehensive reliable reports. very friendly and knowledgeable inspectors. Provided reasonable reassurance with transparent feedback. As a buyer I felt very comfortable and confident in their assessments. The estimate was a bit higher than competition, however I'm sure the outcome is well worth the service received. read more

This company and the services that I got from Darren and Erik was exceptional. I did find this company through yelp by looking at reviews and now I found that they were for real. Without any hesitation I strongly recommend this company and specifically Darren and Erik. Darren and Erik accompanied me for FREE today at my Buyer Final Inspection to make sure seller did fix all those items per the inspection report. Infact this was a favor from Darren as I have never asked for that. In addition he tried to fix some minor things while he was there and surprised all of us (both realtors and me!) you will be in good hands trust me. read more

Joe, the owner, answers the phone himself - usually very quickly. And he calls you back promptly if he misses your call. He's easy to talk to and pleasant on the phone. I needed a general inspector for a property we're in escrow on, and it would be our first home that we are purchasing. It's also over a hundred years old - built in 1905. I wanted someone good, who would give me a comprehensive lay of the land of what this property would realistically need us to put into it. I called two other places but Joe blew them completely out of the water with how responsive he was personally, and with how comprehensive the report he promised would be. Aaron was our inspector. He was on time, polite, very approachable and easy to talk to. He was very respectful to me, which is nice when you're a petite woman. Having worked in the architecture world for over a decade many inspectors look right past me to whatever man is with me and speak to him, even though I'm the one asking the questions. Not Aaron! He took his time going through every inch of the property and he answered all of my questions. He didn't make me feel like he was rushing through or that my questions bothered him in any way. If anything, his demeanor put me more at ease, during a situation which was somewhat stressful for me and my husband. This is, after all, the largest purchase we've ever potentially made... and Aaron's report was so thorough! He flagged some additional areas where he recommended calling in additional inspectors, and I was able to schedule those. Amerispec even has a list of specialty inspectors, for just such an ocassion. We really appreciate how quickly this was all done - we had the report the same evening of the inspection! And it was 84 pages long! I highly recommend this company. read more

Quick, easy, thorough, detailed. I was able to schedule with Joe on short notice. Everything you are looking for in a home inspection company. read more

We hired Joe and Aaron to inspect our home prior to purchasing it. Unfortunately, they missed a major issue that the home had which we did not realize until after we closed and moved in. According to several sources, this was a normal check and should have been included in the general report. As a first time homeowner, like many, we trusted that the inspector's expertise would be accurate. Their failure to do so cost us several thousand dollars. Had they done their job and notated it in the report, this amount could have been negotiated with the seller prior to closing. DO NOT make the same mistake we did by hiring this company. Only hire an inspector via direct referrals and don't be fooled by inspectors like this who failed to do their job for us! read more

I am having Amerispec Inspection Services conduct an inspection for a condo I am purchasing. I spoke with Linda and she couldn't have been more helpful. Everything was smooth and simple. She was able to accommodate an inspection with very short notice. All in all I had a great experience going through Amerispec and I would highly reccomend them to anyone needing an inspection. Thank you Linda. read more

Darren inspected my new home in July 2022 and did a very thorough job. He walked me through everything. In May 2023, I contacted him to get drone footage from the 2022 report. He sent it immediately and as a result of our conversation came out to check on a few things. A lifesaver!! I highly recommend him and his company! read more
