When you're buying a home, a detailed inspection is something you should never rush and I appreciate how Ron always goes above and beyond to make sure we fully understand what we're walking into.

You really are the best!

I hired Ron to do an inspection as I was selling my parents' house and was not completely familiar…read morewith the current condition. I like to use local, small businesses whenever possible, and his reviews were excellent. My mistake was not noticing how old they were. He advised it would take 4 to 4 1/2 hours to complete. He was there 5 hours when my realtor had to ask him to leave for the open house that was being held that day. He came back afterward to finish the roof inspection. He failed to complete an inspection for the kitchen due to "time constraints". However, he had time to note that there was a pet door that was a "safety" concern. He also stated that some items were issues that he was clearly wrong about ("minimal" strapping on a water heater that had 2 straps from a newly purchased kit and a third steel strap, replacement windows that he stated were the "builder type from the original construction"). While I appreciate thoroughness, spending time nitpicking every minor detail in a 61 year old house but not completing the full inspection I paid for is not acceptable. He did not get my name right on the report, even though I wrote it for him on the contract I signed. He did not provide the hard copy report that was promised, nor did he email it to me - I had to get it from my realtor. I'm giving him a 3 for thoroughness. If you have unlimited time to wait for this guy to complete the inspection, go for it. He may have been a great inspector in his prime, but personally I think he needs to hang it up and retire already.

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.

Having purchased several properties in the past, we can confidently say this was the first time we…read moreexperienced what a truly thorough home inspection should be. Juan Morales and Edgar Olivares spent nearly three hours carefully evaluating the property. Just as importantly, they took the time to explain their findings and patiently answer all of our questions, making sure we fully understood the condition of the home and any areas requiring immediate attention. For context, the inspection was for a two-story single-family home in La Crescenta with a finished/converted garage. We also included sewer system inspection at the same time. The inspection report was exceptionally organized, detailed, and easy to understand, allowing us to quickly prioritize the findings and make informed decisions. Booking was quick and seamless, and the entire process was professional from start to finish. Juan and Edgar set a new standard for what we expect from a home inspection. We highly recommend them and their company to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, thorough, and professional home inspection team.

He's not just checking boxes -- he genuinely teaches you about the home and approaches the inspection as an educator, explaining things clearly and patiently as you go. I felt like I was going to school in the best way. His historical knowledge of homes by era was impressive. What really stood out was his attention to detail. He actually gave us more insight into our roof than our specialized roof inspector did, which says a lot. His reports were also delivered quickly and clearly, which was crucial for us since we were on a fast closing timeline. Jerry is also very friendly and easy to work with, which makes what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. His son, Kyle, handled the sewer inspection and was equally punctual, detailed, and professional. Together, they spent a significant amount of time going through everything thoroughly and never made us feel rushed. They even went above and beyond in small but meaningful ways -- during the patio inspection, Jerry noticed our screen door was a bit wobbly and fixed it on the spot. If you're looking for inspectors who are knowledgeable, meticulous, timely, and genuinely care about doing the job right, Brooks and Sons Inspections is an easy recommendation. We love Jerry!!

Rory Hernandez was recommended to us by the sellers real estate agent, Cindy Sorey. Unfortunately,…read moreour experience was extremely stressful and deeply disappointing. Rory tested our master bathroom and reported mold but did not disclose that toxic black mold was present. After thousands of dollars in remediation costs paid by the seller, he performed a second test and told us the mold had been successfully cleared. Because we were concerned, we paid $1,500 for an independent professional mold inspection. That test found that black mold was still present--and also uncovered mold in our hallway bathroom. We discovered that he used a $50 Home Depot test kit to ensure the mold was clear, which was quite unsettling. What was especially upsetting was Rory's lack of communication during a critical period. He ignored our calls, texts, and emails for more than six days while we were dealing with a potentially serious health hazard and trying to understand the test results ourselves, with our inspection contingency deadline approaching. When he finally responded, his tone was dismissive and condescending and he simply plagiarized an article via copy and paste. Cindy continued to refer us to Rory for answers, but he refused to respond to us. Ultimately, nearly $15,000 in additional remediation was required after Rory had told us the bathroom was clear. The seller reimbursed our $1,500 independent testing cost, and a $20,000 escrow was established for remediation. This was an incredibly stressful experience during an already complicated home purchase. When you hire someone presented as an expert to evaluate a potentially serious mold problem, you should be able to rely on accurate testing and timely communication. We also discovered that our attic insulation was not up to code at all and I now have to pay to have the insulation replaced. I found out later Rory only popped his head up into the attic, although it is fully accessible. I am unsure, based on his age and weight, if he is even capable of performing to full scope of duties for his job.
