Sam who does their scheduling was super helpful with our tight schedule for getting our inspections in when we were free (in addition to us working in builder timelines), and both Brad and Charlie were super friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough. Reports came quick which was important for our turn around times. Plus they include drone/thermal with the inspection, so that was also a plus. Will be using them in the future for warranty inspections. Highly recommend- thanks guys!

I appreciated how well he explained things, and how patient he was with questions. The report he sent us afterwards was detailed and again, easy to understand.

One of them broke his toe earlier in the morning and was barely doing anything (don't blame him. Sucks they made him work through it) The other inspector frank was condescending and didn't seem like he wanted to be there. Had to argue with him to look at the deck and under it for issues we discovered ourself. Then we get a boilerplate inspection report with pictures missing and nothing meaningful. no response when asked about it.

There's a reason Jennifer of Lead Inspections of MoCo has a 5 star rating--she is truly a fantastic…read morechoice in every way. I needed a lead inspection of my SF home with an ADU. I wanted to use a different inspector since the one a few years back made the process complicated and expensive. Without actually testing the exterior, he "assumed" lead based on the 1960 date of construction, which cost me alot in repairs. I picked Jennifer based on her reviews and I'm so glad I did. She actually answered the phone and then answered my questions. She came out 2 days later and tested everything. She uploaded my inspection report that day and I feel like a weight's been lifted. Super nice and very professional!

After speaking with Jennifer she asked me a bunch of questions about the house and then said the house might be able to qualify for the lead-free certificate which sounded great. Ashleigh came to do the inspection and she was very patient with me being a hot mess and late at the time due to selling another house, packing and prepping for a cross-country move. She was very friendly but professional and fully explained the inspection process. After she finished up she explained the results and what they meant and then provided me with a complete inspection packet all the way down to a pre-addressed envelope with sticky note instructions. It was like it was made for me in my chaotic state at the time! Great service, great professionalism, great price for the high quality service.

I am in the process of purchasing a house and did not know where to find a great home inspector. I…read moredecided to give Yelp a try since I have used it in the past to get quotes for other things. I got a response from Mark on 05/11/24, and we talked on the phone for over 5 minutes to discuss the location of the house, the best time to do the inspection, and the prices. He was patient as I asked many questions, and I never felt rushed. We decided to the home inspection on 05/13/24. On 05/12/24, it rained very hard, and I was concerned about the new house since it is located next to a drainage system. Fortunately, Mark was doing another home inspection in the area and dropped by to take some pictures for me, mind you, I did not even ask him to do so. He just thought it was a good idea to do so since he was in the area. He sent pictures and confirmed that the basement was not affected. I appreciate this so much as it gives me a peace of mind. On 05/13/24 Mark, my realtor, and I went to the house for the home inspection. Mark is very thorough and meticulous with everything. He took his time to explain everything to me and answered all my questions. He even spent around 5 minutes on the roof to ensure there is no problem with it. He also did the radon test for me. I am extremely satisfied with the services provided by Mark. I highly recommend him.

Everything went well. The owner was attentive and responsive. Would like to hire again if needed.read more

We bought two houses in Northern Virginia a few years back, both of which were inspected by Mr…read more Carls. Like others have said, each time, we walked around with a notepad and took notes during the inspection. Some people may think this is rather old fashioned, but let me tell you, as a result of following him around and taking notes, we got to know our houses inside out before we moved in. As a matter of fact, everything we know about house maintenance came from those inspections. While he went around checking out various things, he made it a point of explaining what each knob was for, where the exhaust pipe vented to, and how to clean the double-hang windows. First-time (or inexperienced) homebuyers (like we were) will gain more than just a home inspection--they will learn how to make the most of what they have and how to maintain their home to maximize its value. Speaking of maximizing resale value of a home, though the sales of our houses went smoothly, we've since learned the value of having a house inspected before putting it on the market. As we were giving advice to friends who were preparing to sell their house, we couldn't help but feel very lucky with our houses-we are grateful for the education in homeownership we got through Mr. Carls' inspections.

Heather and Paul did an excellent job! Being first time home buyers, we had a lot on concern and…read morequestions about the house. Heather discussed them very patiently with us and guided us through the process. Paul was very thorough with all inspections around the house and would pause in each room to tell us what he found and if it was a small or major fix and gave us some tips. The report was also very thorough and had estimated costs summary at the end for major repairs/changes which was very helpful. Overall a great experience. Would highly recommend them and work with them again.

They were able to come in on the same day requested and ended up being a better value than the initial company. We arrived for our 2pm appointment at around 1:59pm and Heather was already there setting up and had things ready to go along with our agent. She was super friendly and patient to explain everything with us (first time homebuyers here). She was honest about the process and explained the "why" behind everything. She even explained the different tools she used, why, and their purpose in the inspection. We also appreciated that she told us that if there's anything we see that didn't sit well to let her know and she would do a look and ensure it was captured in her report. Our agent was in tow and if there were certain elements our agent needed to capture, she made sure to verbalize that to all of us. All in all, Heather was a rockstar and we would highly recommend Foxx to anyone looking for inspections in Maryland. They offer great results at an incredible value and take homeowner education seriously. I'd recommend Heather if you could (she's like a home inspection Pinterest!) and bonus she studied geology so she was able to give us some cool facts about the different stones in the granite on the kitchen countertops.
