He would show me what was wrong and give suggestions on how it should be fixed. It was like watching Sherlock Holmes finding all the evidence. He showed me a lot about the home so I knew exactly what I was getting myself into. He even lended me a spare jumper suit to crawl under the crawl space of home with him! Absolutely amazing and informative experience being Phil's shadow for the day. The inspection report was emailed in less than 24 hours. Also he is a retired veteran, just all around solid dude giving a solid service. I would recommend him a thousand times!

Our RE agent set this inspection up as we were on the west coast, in December…read more Once the report came to us, we negotiated the purchase based on the deficiencies noted. We are a military family, and now work for the Veterans Administration. This is not an unusual way to inspect or purchase a home for the military. Fast forward into 2024, and as we were having professionals come in, we were made aware of other deficiencies, that we were never made aware of. But the biggest problem was when we had nice weather and tried to open the row of windows along the back of the house. The rotten wood at the bottom of the casemate windows is shocking. Several are not even operational. There was no furniture in the home to block access to these windows. We have tried and tried to reach this company to find out why the inspector did not attempt to open, as per his own notes. Sent emails with pictures, and left messages. They will not respond. Which is very unprofessional. I have given them many opportunities to talk to us before leaving this review. Don't use this company. You will be very sorry, and will be wasting your money. We've shared these problems and more with our agent as well.

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 hired Mark to inspect the home I'm purchasing in the Kingsmill community. He was very responsive right from the initial quote request and throughout the inspection. He provided an extremely detailed and comprehensive inspection going above and beyond the required standards of a home inspection and identified key concerns I hadn't noticed. His inspection empowered me to make informed decisions and negotiate with the seller to make repairs before closing. Mark's attention to detail and in-depth knowledge of building/safety codes were obvious from his pre-work interview and detailed report. He gave me more than I could have asked for, and I'm sure some of it will end up on my honey-do list for my husband both before and after we move in. He was very friendly and professional, and he instilled confidence in my purchase going forward as an unbiased outside observer providing a fair evaluation of the home. I almost hired a different inspection company with more Yelp reviews from out of town, but I'm very glad I chose to go with this local inspector. He did a phenomenal job, and it was all at a reasonable price and completed in a very timely manner. Whether you're buying a house like I am, selling, or just need an inspection for other purposes, I strongly recommend hiring APE Home Inspections. They do great work!
