He responded to my emails promptly and was very easy to work with. I accidentally gave him some confusing information when scheduling but Aaron knew the right questions to ask and got everything clarified before the inspection. I could tell he really is an expert on home inspection business. He was very thorough and honestly did a great job. He stuck by his quoted price and he seemed very honorable and trustworthy. He was great to work with and seems like an overall good and respectable man. He gave excellent advice and brought a lot of details to my attention.

Hired Amerispec before I bought my house which was a big mistake. Their inspector missed several…read moreserious issues with the house (serious mold problem in the garage, cracks in the foundation etc). Several contractors who came to fix the problems were surprised that there was an inspection on the house before purchase. They mentioned that these are the kind of problems they see if there was no inspection on the house before purchase. Of course, Amerispec doesn't take any responsibility for their work and it's all in the fine print. In addition, a few months later, they tried to get me to sign up for an "additional service" to review the inspection report with their inspector for an additional hourly fee! Of course, I didn't take that offer and sent them an email to express my dissatisfaction with their work but didn't get a reply which is not surprising. I'll never use Amerispec again or recommend them to anyone. Stay away from this company

My husband and I had a few bumps in the road while…read morepurchasing a house which then had us scheduling, rescheduling, changing addresses for an inspection. Josh was accommodating and kept in communication with us. Josh is extremely thorough. After the inspection, Josh went over all of his findings with us. He made sure to explain items that he recommends being replaced or repaired as well as explaining why it's best for the items to be replaced/repaired. This is my first time buying a house and he took the time to explain how long appliances lasts, as well as the quality of the appliances. He also provided tips on how to maintain and how often to service things. The report was provided to my husband and I on that same day. The platform utilized for reviewing the report is user friendly and easy to navigate. If you're in need of an inspection I highly recommend Josh. He conducts inspections in Wisconsin and Illinois.

Based on a coworkers recommendation for Silver Stag I called at about 4pm that same day to get an inspection done. He was able to schedule it the very next day at 9am and took care of getting in touch with the realtor office to ensure everything was in place. At about 1pm the next day I had the full, incredibly detailed inspection report in my email inbox. It had pictures for everything, notes on what they saw, and recommendations on next steps if anything possibly needed getting addressed. Nate and his partner were so thorough. I had a few questions on some of them and reached out to see if I could call to chat. That same day my wife and I were able to get on the phone with him and receive very satisfactory feedback and answers. The entire process was completed in barely 24 hours! Nate and Silver Stag were prompt, detail oriented, courteous, and the price was right in line with what should be expected to pay for a standard home inspection. I have purchased other homes in my life, paid more for inspections, and gotten a lot less for it. I highly recommend Silver Stag for your home inspection needs. Save yourself the googling and comparing of all the other outfits doing the same work. Call Nate and you won't be disappointed! I wasn't!

ARC…read moreprovided a quote ( without visiting our home) that included the following sentence, "Please confirm exterior walls are framed 2x4". I told the rep that other companies have inspected our home and stated that our walls are suitable for blown in insulation. ARC never came to visit our home - while their competitors did this as a standard account management cycle. Fast forward to this week, I was ready to sign the agreement and pay the deposit - the rep asked me to confirm the 2x4 framing. I asked him how he wanted me to do this - he suggested I drill pilot holes in each wall or pay a 3rd party to do this and that ARC was not responsible for verifying the details of our home. Not responsible for validating a critical project detail before having you customer pay thousands of dollars?! Extremely poor customer service and frankly, a lazy sales team. I am sure the crews doing the work are great, but the accounts team could use a refresh. I will work with a competitor unless ARC has employees willing to visit their prospective customers!
