Our experience working with Harel was surprisingly fun. He was professional, knowledgeable, punctual, THOROUGH and answered all of our questions. He even quizzed us on things we learned from him. His inspection gives us confidence with our purchase, and don't get me started on the gadgets! I now have an Amazon wish list of tools that would make any husband green with envy! I highly recommend Harel for your next home inspection. read more

I hired Harel to do inspection for the house I was going to buy. He is very knowledgeable, explained lots of the things in details. The inspection took several hours, and the report showed up on his website within 24 hours. The reports covers all the details he explained during inspection, and contains a lot of pictures which address the issues and concerns. The price is also very reasonable. I recommend Heral to anyone who needs a home inspection. read more

I had him inspect my house ( two story, new construction home, ~2700 sq ft). The reason I mention that it is a new construction home is because when you buy a new home, the expectation is that everything is perfect. Well, for my piece of mind, I decided to have my house inspected. Good and Bad thing is that he found things wrong with the house. He was very informative. Answered all my questions. Explained all the tools he used. If I was concerned about something, he listened and gave me answers. A little bit pricey but I say worth it. If i was to buy another house, I would definitely hire him again. read more

I was incredibly impressed with Harel. He gave us a very reasonable price on a quick renovation consultation and while he was there also checked the levelness of our foundation, pointed out a few spots lacking insulation, and even checked the moisture levels in a part that was appearing cool on his infrared camera. He was available to come out the very next day after we called, and was very professional. He sent both email and text confirmations and arrived exactly at the planned time. I will certainly be recommending him to my friends and family. read more

This is my first experience with home purchase and Harel w/ Inspectioneering is indeed the way to go! He is extremely thorough and his inspection is very comprehensive. He is 100% professional with a caring and considerate communication style. Thank you so much, Harel, for a positive inspection experience. Much appreciated! read more

In my 50 years of real estate, Harel is the finest home inspection professionals I have ever met. His work was thorough, his equipment modern and up-to-date, his report comprehensive, and his open-minded, positive attitude a joy to work with.....TOP RUNG! read more

I've used many home inspectors over the last 20 years and Harel is the best I've worked with. His civil engineering background helped identify serious structural issues with two properties that would likely have been missed by a home inspector with a more limited background. read more

Harel did 2 home inspections for my Fiancé. Harel was very quick in responding and scheduling the home inspection. Not only did he do a very thorough inspection he actually educated us on his process and explained to us what he had found. We learned so much from the home inspection since he took the time to let us follow him and ask questions. We were so impressed with the high tech gadgets that he used! We highly recommend his professionalism and his knowledge. Thanks Harel! read more

Harel is a very competent professional. He does a very thorough inspection and takes his time explaining and answering any questions. I also, was very impressed with his polite demeanor and excellent communication throughout the process. He made me feel confident in his inspection abilities and was effective in putting my home buying concerns at ease through what often is a exciting but stressful time. I would recommend his services to anyone. read more

For all of your structural engineering and home inspection needs, I highly recommend Harel. He arrived at our house promptly and was VERY receptive to all of our concerns and questions. He was very thorough and went beyond the call of duty to ensure our satisfaction. Also, he continues to be exceedingly helpful when questions arise. It was great working with Harel in that he also isn't a corporate robot and treats you like a friend/neighbor. What's even better is that his rate was exceedingly competitive. I will be hiring Harel for all my inspection needs in the future. read more

I was beyond impressed with the services that Mr Harel Schwarz offered to us!! He was understanding of our scheduling needs and was flexible to work with our hectic schedules. Right off the bat, I was impressed with his professionalism and work ethic. I was surprised that he wanted his clients to be present for part of the inspection!! He was very thorough during the actual inspection process and equally as thorough during explanations of his his discoveries. His tech armamentarium was fascinating and I felt reassured that I was getting the most complete inspection with the most advanced tools!! Harel's report was equally as clear, concise, and easily understood with all of his supporting visuals. He was able to generate this report in a day and encouraged us to reach out any time for further details or questions. Overall, it is clear that Harel takes great pride in his work and finds joy in sharing his knowledge and skills with his clients. I would highly recommend Harel Schwarz's services!!! You will not regret it! read more

Harel ended up doing two home inspections that I needed. He was very accommodating and flexible with his schedule. He is very patient and explains what he sees as you go around the home. I appreciate his insight and explanations. He's your guy if you're looking for someone to provide you with a quick turn around on a report and inspection. read more

Outstanding. Super high tech and very good price. I will use again. Goes above and beyond.

Was on time, professional and able to detect to a couple of very important issues that needed to be fixed on a new home prior to close. Namely a gas leak and our dual zone AC not being wired correctly. read more

Harel is the best foundation Expert I would say in the world. If you are buying or selling an home, or even got a faulty report from a foundation Specialist, do not hesitate to call Herel. He knows his stuff. If you are a realtor and looking for a honest, expert with integrity then he is your man. I will be using him to inspect my home foundation that is being built. He warns never to use a foundation specialist that are tied to the work unless you really know them. Truly a blessing read more

I used Harel Schwarz to inspect 2 different properties for me, one of which i purchased and one I didn't. Harel is a friendly person but I definitely would not hire him to inspect for me again. He likes to use a lot of gadgets that may seem impressive but he missed a number of serious issues during his inspection that cost me a lot of money to fix and were actually health and safety issues (plumbing related). I gave him several opportunities to provide his perspective on what happened but he didn't even give me the courtesy of a response which speaks volumes. When I look back at the inspection report I'm struck by how little actual substantive information was provided. I believe he's a structural engineer by trade and perhaps he's competent in that area. But he definitely doesn't have enough knowledge or experience with basic plumbing and electrical to do a good job as a general home inspector. read more

Harel demonstrated professionalism and expertise in inspecting my house for the cause of a sloping (sinking) floor. He measured the slope, showed me the cause and made clear recommendations. He was punctual to our appointment, and was patient with his explanation. Great experience! read more

Harel was excellent -- I especially appreciated that he recommended that we join him on the entire inspection rather than wait until the end for a cursory review. That was so helpful, because he answered all our questions as we went along and I felt like every concern was addressed. His website is great also, I was able to see what a sample inspection report would look like so I went into the inspection appt with an idea of that we were going to do. As a first time homebuyer, I couldn't ask for more! read more

I couldn't be happier with Harel's inspection. His background as a structural engineer gave me a lot of confidence that he'd thoroughly inspect my new house, and I wasn't disappointed at all. In addition, he took the time to make sure we knew exactly what we were looking at, what he was looking for, and explained good findings as well as findings that needed to be corrected. I know a lot more about how my house functions after spending the morning with Harel. He also uses technology to see areas of the house that wouldn't otherwise be visible, like using FLIR to see the studs in the wall. I whole-heartedly recommend Harel, he does amazing work and instills confidence. read more

Harel Schwarz of Inspectioneering is nothing less than the most masterfully trained and knowledgeable inspector I have met in my 15 years being in the real estate industry. He not only has the most up-to-date sophisticated equipment to assess and tackle just about any inquiry one could think of but he also possesses exceptional "people skills" to deal with a myriad of different personalities of every client. He explains otherwise very complicated home systems with a calm ease and in a way everyone can easily understand. He takes his time to explain what he is doing and does a phenomenal job with his in-depth reports. Look no where else if you want a true pro! read more

We hired Harel Schwarz from Inspectioneering to do a home inspection prior to purchasing an older home in Davis. He arrived early, was very thorough and answered all of our questions. His thoroughness of the home far exceeded what we expected from this inspection. He was able to discovered some major issues with the home that we would not have known about had we not used him. We highly recommend him! read more

This is my second time going with Inspectioneering for my home inspection. My first experience was awesome and he made me really appreciate the entire process of learning so much about a house. A truly empowering process during an overwhelming and stressful time. That house had too many repairs and I had to walk away from it. Then I called Harel for my 2nd home inspection. Again, he was early, ready to go and had all his awesome gadgets in hand. Super satisfying and educational experience again. Then he told me that this neighborhood had so many trees, he recommended I get a sewer inspection ($150)... worth it for peace of mind. I am so very glad that I did! The pipe had a terrible clog, was cracked and completely filled with roots. The sewer inspection company said the sewage would have backed up in no time. I put that on my request for repairs and the seller fixed it. THANK YOU HAREL!!! read more

Harel inspected my 1952 house before we purchased it. He explained to me what I needed to worry about (and should negotiate as part of the purchase price) and what stuff I didn't need to be worried about. After buying the house, there have been no surprises and Harel even helped us with some structural engineering advice in working with the county in fixing the roof of a barn on the property. Could not have been more pleased with his work. read more

Harel did a very thorough inspection of our foundation. He is super knowledgeable. He clearly is passionate about home inspecting. He is a wonderful communicator! Couldn't have been more pleased with his help.... read more

I hired Harel to do structural assesment of our house. His response time was fast, and even though we live rather far from Davis he was willing to make the drive. He did a thorough inspection of the structural elements of the house. I really appreciate understanding what should be repaired, what we should worry about, and what just needs to be watched. read more

When I initially hired Harel Schwarz of Inspectioneering, I didn't know I was hiring the "James Bond" of home inspectors. He arrived in a cool "work vehicle" late model BMW 5 series, and promptly proceeded to pull out a myriad of high tech gear from the trunk. I had suspected through our phone interactions that he would be professional and knowledgeable, but was pleasantly surprised by just how prepared he was. Throughout the inspection he utilized high tech tools for everything - Self leveling laser to identify structural issues, Forward Looking Infrared device (FLIR), to identify any issues hidden behind Sheetrock, water pressure gauges, electronic carbon dioxide/gas detectors ...you name it. "Q" had prepared him well for the inspection! Harel took his time, and inspected the entire house from walking the roof to trekking deep within the attic. This inspector is not afraid to get his clothes dirty! His customer service skills are excellent. He readily answered any question I had during the inspection in a fun and informative manner. I received an inspection report and recommended actions within hours of him completing the inspection. I was so impressed, I sent the report to my brother who was a Navy Nuclear Engineer, and for the last 20 years, has been a loss control inspector for the largest commercial insurer in North America. My brother inspects multi-million dollar commercial properties on a weekly basis, and is certified in level III FLIR thermography - he said the report Harel produced was extremely accurate, and the actions were exactly what he would have recommended. Well done Harel...I mean Bond... Harel Bond. read more

Harel and Inspectioneering were an awesome choice, and I'm super glad we went with them. Not only was Harel thorough, but he explained everything: what he was looking for, what would look right and what's wrong, and gave recommendations for how to fix everything. Overall it was a great experience and I'm very grateful for Harel's hard work and dedication to his customers. Thanks again! read more
