Harry Andruss inspected the home of 2 Chautauqua Trail Madison, Wisconsin 53719 on July 22, 2013…read morefor me with $450 inspection fee. Dual agent Laura Shively was present while Harry inspected the house. Harry once inspected a home represented by Laura. We have two witnesses who can prove that Laura tried to mislead our home inspector Harry. Even Harry denied that he was threatened by Laura. The first home inspection report didn't mention that the roof got hail damage. I insisted on adding the hail damage pictures to the report and to describe the true condition. However, Harry just added a picture of one aluminum air vent with hail damage dents and mentioned cosmetic problem. After I asked again, Harry provided me a 3rd version home inspection report with the hail damage pictures. But he also declared in the report that the buyer agent stated that the seller had insurance company inspect the roof. The insurance company made a decision to replace the siding but didn't find enough damage to warranty the roof replacement. Harry added the words in addendum 07/28/2013, "The roof appears to be in good condition even with the hail damage and missing shingles." Later I found out that the insurance company issued actual cash value of $15,635.16 for the hail damage including the siding and the roof in 2007 which means Laura told a lie and the roof do need to be replaced or repaired. I HAD FOUR LICENSED ROOF COMPANIES INSPECT THE ROOF AND THEY ALL CONCLUDED THAT THE ROOF NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. A lot of the shingles were missing because the shingles started to shatter after 6-7 years of hail damage. Because of the home inspection report from Harry, the seller refused to replace the roof or give the credit to replace the roof. I had to back out of the house. During three weeks of processing, I experienced only lies and cheating from the real estate agent and the home inspector. A home inspector shall at least provide his customer a report with true conditions and his professional judgment. He shouldn't easily give his or her conclusion just by buyer's agent saying or any other party's declaration. Please stay away from this home inspector. I am filing a complaint to Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services.

They then offered some options to resolve the issue. So thank you again Patio Pleasures for fixing an impeller on a broken pump motor. I think better customer service would have been to tell me the motor's fried before replacing the impeller. But I guess they didn't care if the motor was working properly. They just changed the visually defective parts and didn't bother with the rest. Patio Pleasure's service guy was even here at the house after the repair so he heard and felt how hot the motor was and he told me that "sometimes they run hot". Yeah they run hot, when they are dying!

Just be careful. The exhaust system itself seams to be installed and working just fine. The initial…read moresump pump that was installed ended up "failing" a few months after installation though and flooding out our finished basement ($5k in damages). We assumed it was just a bad pump which I would never blame on the installer. They were great with agreeing to come out and install a new one. We even paid them install a backup system shortly after so this would never happen again. A few months later we got a notification that the primary sump pump wasn't working AGAIN. Luckily we had the backup pump installed and we didn't have another flood. We decided to bring in a licensed plumber. He looked things over and told us that the sump wasn't installed as it should have been so we had an airlock in the main pump. Looking back at the second "failure" it was likely the same thing happened with the first pump that caused the flood. We have been in communication with them and asked for a reasonable refund on the installation of the second pump (we asked for nothing related all the damage caused by the first failure). They maintained that they did nothing wrong. We are still waiting on the refund. I know they install a ton of these systems, and it sounds like this isn't common (according to them). Maybe we just got unlucky with having two sump pumps fail in the matter of a couple months. And that the licensed pumper was incorrect with his assessment of how it should have been installed. Maybe. But I just wanted to mention to be careful with the sump pump installation if you decide to go with them.
