He showed  it to me and offered his advice on if it needed to be repaired/replaced by a service professional or if it is something that could be handled as a DIY project.  Mr Emenaker is very professional and respectful of the property that he is working with, even down to the little details of making sure that he is wearing boot coverings as to not track dirt through the house.  His report is very detailed complete with pictures and video clips, it even provides a detailed breakdown of every problem that was identified.  Mr. Emenaker even went as far as to help me fix a leak in the shower that started when he arrived, and once it was out of his scope of what he could do, he told me exactly what I needed to do and what I needed to buy in order to fix the problem.  I highly recommend him for any property inspection.

Tim Early came out today for a home inspection on a house we want to sell. I know most people don't…read moreget inspections as sellers but they should! No one wants to be known as the person who offloaded a death trap. We knew our house was well cared for and we were delighted to find out we are right! Tim helped us with a few things we had no idea might be a concern but after his explanation it made perfect sense. We feel good about adding our home to the Hampton Roads market and after watching such a thorough inspection we are excited to have him inspect our future new home! I feel like I've known this man my entire life. He's personable and brilliant and that is a rare combination. If you are buying or selling, this is the man you want in your corner. His list of accomplishments is vast, his knowledge, more vast. You will not feel like someone took you through the usual course of difficult, hard-to-comprehend regulations just because he could. He will not only explain why it's necessary but why it's important and why it matters to you as not only a good faith seller but a future buyer. I look forward to using Early Home Inspection on my dream home. You should too.

Working with Tim Early of Early Home Inspection on our latest whole house renovation was an exceptional experience. He was easy to coordinate inspections with, which is exactly the opposite with City inspectors who don't care if you have to wait all day for their arrival. Tim was respectful of this by being on time and was a pleasure to have on site. He recognizes and appreciates contractors who know what they're doing and take the time to demand quality. As you can imagine he sees it all these days. We would recommend Early Home Inspection to anyone in need of this type of service, you will be glad you called him.

Calieb (Pronounced ""Kay lib) The owner is absolutely…read morefantastic and knows his stuff. He's workers have been with him for 15 years. That speaks well for him right there. I just purchased a home and Calieb was recommended by my realtor. He met us at the house and walked through it with him and he noticed things we didn't. He will take cate of all of it in the prep process. He also will come back after the movers and will take care of any damage they might do to walls and baseboards. My house is small, 1,575 sq ft. His estimate was $2875. I thought that was very reasonable.

I had a home inspection done by this company in early December of 2025. I understand that home…read moreinspectors aren't specialists in every aspect of your home, but for the price you pay, you expect them not to miss a lot of items. After closing on the house in January and moving in last month, we've come to find many items that he missed on his inspection. The downstairs toilet was loose and not level, leading to wax ring failure which I had to fix. The refrigerator was full of mold(he checked all appliances) which I had to get replaced. He missed the burned outlet behind the fridge. He went up into the attic but missed leaks in the roof which were found by a reputable roofing company during their estimate. I'm disappointed in how much was missed considering how highly rated this company is.

It was reasonable and honestly other mainstream companies would've charged more for poor quality work so I'm glad I went with encompass. My main concern was sweating vents in loft that was flipped from an attic, and Jayson did infrared imaging and saw that there was less insulation around it, which was having the heat hit all the cold air coming out causing sweating . Encompass provided me an online binder to see all of the notes. Once again, this was a great price with great quality and the electronic binder.

I no longer reside in the area, and he was so thorough and dedicated, he is now my go-to handyman! He was not the cheapest quote I received from other local businesses, but his response time was quick, the price was reasonable and comparable. Getting the service I did from a small business owner was worth the "little extra." 9/20/2019 UPDATE Chris, the owner/operator was great while I was in town, but I left with one last task to be completed (remove and replace 1pr of shutters; silly me- payment given for all work) and he still has yet to complete it. I have tried numerous times and numerous ways to contact him, and neither the tenants or I have heard from him. We had agreed for him to be my go-to handyman for any future work with the house, but I won't be working with him anymore. :-(

All conversations with Dave were through text, which was perfectly fine with me. He was very friendly and personable. Within a couple of days he came out to assess the issue and the morning after, the work was done. He was upfront and honest about the work that needed to be done. He likely saved me a lot of money. He could have spent hours digging up the ground to find the cut line, but instead he recommended the cheaper route of just running a single dedicated circuit. He was understanding and catered to my situation. We are right on the edge of closing on our house and needed this done ASAP. As you can see in the videos, the finished product was very clean and the craftsmanship great. The price was reasonable, given the situation. I would definitely call Zap and (Text) Dave again for any electrical needs I have.
