Great experience with NW Home Inspector now twice! Gregory and Rory were awesome and offered very thoughtful answers to my various questions. I am a big fan or the infrared scanning technology as well. Absolutely recommend. read more

Jordan was very helpful, knowledgeable and thorough with our home inspection. Explained everything in a clear way. Would definitely recommend. read more

Rory did a great job with our home inspection. Payment was super easy, and Rory communicated clearly before and after the inspection. His inspection report was detailed and easy to understand. He took many pictures so we could clearly see all the items he mentioned. We are very satisfied with his work, and we recommend him to anyone needing a home inspection in western Washington. read more

Outstanding service. The inspection and service was thorough, detailed, and professional. Our inspector, Jesse, was patient with questions, responded quickly to our questions afterward, and was a complete professional. The report is a very detailed and thorough document - itemized and separated for easy identification. Detailed and provides a clear description of the issue and includes a suggested process for having someone address them for repairs. I've had homes inspected in the past and they don't come close to NHI's service. Top of my list to recommend. Don and Christina read more

Jordan was very detailed and thorough with our inspection. He pointed out the smallest imperfections we wouldnt have a seen and because of that we were able to make a good decision on the first home and requested another inspection with a secondary home which past inspection. He took his time and explained into details and answered all questions I had. He went above and beyond to ensure that I understood the scope of the deficiencies so as to make a right decision. read more

We have used Northwest Home Inspectors for 3 different properties, buying and selling, and Greg has been our inspector for 2 of these properties. They are incredibly efficient, professional, and friendly. All questions are answered promptly, reports are ready quickly and contain many photos for reference. We will ALWAYS work with them first, and I believe that our realtor will be using them in the future, too. Great job, Greg! We're happy to have you guys on our side. read more

Jesse performed a very thorough job and documented in an excellent way with photos and descriptions. I highly recommend him. Jesse was very professional and had impressive testing equipment, also very knowledgeable. Greg and Netty R. read more

Awesome service, professional, and thorough. Greg Schwartz is very efficient and reliable.

Jesse was the home inspector for a home I was selling on behalf of a client six months ago. At the time I was impressed with his attention to detail. So when the time came to have an inspection done on a property I was personally purchasing I chose to hire Jesse Weaver. I would highly recommend hiring him as he did a great job! Timothy Watts performed the sewer scope during this inspection and did a great job as well, he is skilled and professional. While he scoped the line he had no problem letting me watch and explained to me what he observed. Hire these guys if you need a home inspection or sewer scoped! read more

Recently had my roof replaced. Saw that the roofers did not follow normal roofing procedures. Had several other roofers look it over and they found multiple issues. Then I hired Gergory to do an inspection. He was very thorough and found a lot more. He produced a great report that I can use. read more

I made a great decision by having Jesse do my 11 month warranty home inspection. The reviews were spot on. Jesse is awesome. Home inspection only took a couple of hours and he was able to point out some issues with our home that could become a big deal if not fixed asap. I was then able to go back to the builder and request some fixes under the warranty. He is saving me money and headaches. I want to highlight the addition of the drone Jesse uses to see issues on the rooftop. I don't believe many are using this tech, which helps set him apart. I watched my neighbors house get inspected and their guy was on their roof for over an hour. Jesse took pics within 10 min and was able to show me the condition of my rooftop from a birds eye view. You will not get this service with others. Time is a big deal for me as I WFH and can't be spending all day following an inspector around taking notes. Jesse made this easy! Again.. great guy, great photos and plenty of FYI notes on water heater/furnace/electric annual maintenance for me to keep in mind as we continue to live here for many years to come. He even responded to a few follow-up questions after our appointment. Highly recommended. read more

I have used them multiple times and they are always to great. Jesse and Gregory are very knowledgeable and quick if you stand back and let them do their thing. They then will give you a full overview of everything they found. Or you can follow them around but I found it fastest to let them do their thing and talk at the end. So thorough. I wouldn't use anyone else! They are also super friendly! read more

After reviewing several comments and complaints on several home inspectors, plus desiring an inspector that is licensed (which I did review at the WA state contractors licensing web page) we decided to use Northwest Home Inspector. Factors that I felt were a home run for us were: - detailed inspection report samples on their website - their website allows for additional items to bring to their attention like attic and crawl space inspection - their website allows for scheduling and payment - communication is easy via phone, text or email Day of inspection: Jesse spent nearly 2.5-3 hours inspecting and educating us on shutoff valves and electrical switches. He conveyed items that we should discuss with the builder (I was taking notes and he mentioned all items that he was discussing would be in the report, when I got the report and compared it to my notes all items were there). Raised the inspection issues to the builder and all items were addressed by the builder. One item I noticed in reviews were folks mentioning about the cost for a home inspection, and while prices could vary from inspectors I felt the cost and service from Jesse was money well spent. Jesse mentioned to me about an inspection before the one year builder warranty and I mentioned to him that I didn't see an option on his website to do a follow up appointment so I hope he gets that added in or sends clients a reminder email. Also, Jesse is a nice and personable guy to talk to, we had a good laughs during his inspection like when I opened the fuse box panel and he said to me "are you license to open that" then I quickly closed it then realized he was kidding because I've always resent breakers in other homes. read more

I have used NW Home Inspector twice, both on super short notice. They were very knowledgeable and accommodating, as the two instances had different needs. Checked every nook and crawl space. Broke it down and let us know what should be immediately looked at or can wait. If we could do it ourselves or needs a professional. Will def use again if I ever need an inspection. read more

Timothy Watts did the home inspection on the condo that I am purchasing. He arrived promptly, did an extremely thorough inspection, answered all of our questions, and had some very good advice. He did a wonderful job and I highly recommend his services. read more

Greg did a thorough job of inspecting a lakeside cabin we had made an offer for. He spent almost 3 hours working on it from roof to interior to crawlspace and all of the main indoor and outdoor features. He then went through each aspect of what we needed to consider for needed repairs, etc. Main thing, is he made us aware of what we needed to know up front. Of the half dozen or so properties we've purchased over the years, this was by far the most thorough and knowledgeable inspector/inspection we've ever hired. Thank you, Greg! read more

Highly recommend, they were responsive, professional and gave us solid information on the state of our house. Thank you!

we got Jesse to inspect our new property and he was thorough and a great professional. I higjly recommend Northwest Home Inspector, it was a pleasure to work with you Jesse. thank you. read more

Both Jesse and Greg are very professional at multi-family inspection. I hired them to inspect 4 property in the past time. They were timely and finished work on time. There comments and report are very professional and help our team a lot. read more

I had my home inspected by Jesse Weaver in preparation for selling my house. Jesse was thorough and inspected every nooks and crannies of my house. After the inspection, he sat down and explained his findings. I highly recommend Northwest Home Inspector if you are looking for a thorough inspection of your home. read more

Jesse conducted a home inspection on our recent purchase. The home is brand new never lived in but I know the value of an inspection so I decided to go ahead and arrange one. I am so glad I decided to use him. He was professional, smart, funny, entertaining and detailed. I enjoyed every minute with him and will certainly be using him again. I sell Real Estate and will be encouraging my buyers to give him a try too. Thank you Jesse. It was a pleasure meeting you. read more

We've used Jesse every year for several years to inspect our rental property for potential issues since we live out of state. He is always really prompt at returning communication, and his inspections are very thorough and reliable. I'm not sure why everyone doesn't have their home inspected annually--professionals can find issues that can turn into disasters later. I think we'll be using Jesse even after we eventually move into our home there. Highly recommended!! read more

Jesse was really thorough! He gave me a debrief after the inspection and then had the official report for me by the next morning! Really appreciated the quick turn around and communication. Thank you!! read more

Gregory did a great job on our home inspection. I like the fact he walked through everything with us afterwards. Some inspectors just send you the report. He worked thoroughly and gave us suggestions on how to maintain things properly. He even offered for us to call him if we needed help on something we couldn't find on YouTube! Thanks, Gregory! read more

Escribo esta reseña para Gregory Schwartz, quien hizo la inspección de alcantarillado de nuestra casa recientemente comprada a través de Northwest Home Inpsector. Gregory es mas competente, profesional, y honesto contratista con el que he interactuado durante mis 10 años como propietario de una vivienda. El hizo la inspeccion del alcantarillado e identificó un problema que condujo a negociaciones con el vendedor. Acordamos que el vendedor contrataría a alguien para hacer la reparación. La empresa que hizo la reparación nos facilitó un vídeo de su propia inspección para que aprobáramos o no el trabajo realizado. Realmente no podía juzgar lo que vi en el video, así que se me ocurrió pedirle su opinión a Gregory. Pensé que era una posibilidad remota porque realmente el no tenía que darme su opinión. Bueno, me equivoqué, porque vio el video varias veces, también le pidió su opinión a un plomero experto y me llamó varias veces para aconsejarme sobre cómo proceder. En otras palabras, ¡solo por un puro acto de amabilidad y profesionalismo se hizo cargo de un problema que no era suyo! Sugirió que hiciéramos una inspección independiente del alcantarillado (y no lo hizo para conseguir trabajo para si mismo, sino que dijo que lo hicieramos con cualquier compannia que trabajara con "Hidrojettin"). Tambien sugerio que yo estuviera presente y que lo llamara porque el quería confirmar algunos de sus sospechas acerca del arreglo que habian hecho. Gregory se conecto conmigo por telefono durante la inspeccion independiente y le hizo preguntas al tecnico. Con estas confirmo efectivamente que sus sospechas eran veridicas. El es una persona muy analitica y con un gran sentido comun. Con esto, pudimos enterarnos de las condiciones reales del acantarillado y hacer un plan para resolverlo. Varias veces traté de pagarle a Gregeory por el tiempo que gasto investigando este problema de alcantarillado y se negó a aceptar dinero. Así que escribir esta reseña es lo menos que puedo hacer a cambio. ¡Qué maravilloso sería este mundo si todos los contratistas fueran como Gregory! Si hubiera 6 estrellas para calificarlo como un contratista excepcional, lo haria. read more

We have used Northwest Home Inspector 4 times in the past four years and have been very pleased with the service. Jesse is very responsive with communications, courteous, and funny. He takes the time to explain the process and the inspection results. We always receive the final report in less than 24 hours. We highly recommend him and will be using the services again in the near future. read more

I was able to quickly schedule an inspection with a short turn around. Jesse provided an excellent inspection, thoroughly explaining everything during the process and happy to answer questions. He was able to quickly identify construction materials in the house and was familiar not only with proper use but how use recommendations of the products had changed over time (for example the siding of the house was correctly installed for when the house was constructed, but Jesse was also familiar with how current best practices had evolved over time). Jesse expertly used tools like a drone and infrared sensor, but also didn't hesitate to crawl into the crawl space, attic, etc. as needed. The result was a thorough and helpful report! read more

Gregory was thorough and took the time to take me through my home inspection, as well as answered all my questions. It was a great experience, I highly recommend. read more

I hired Northwest Home Inspector for a Radon test and a pest inspection of a home I am looking to purchase. They were quick, responsive and professional. They answered all my questions and addressed any concerns. The reports provided were east to understand and both jobs were done at a great price. When needed, I will definitely use them again! read more

I am happy with the service and the quality of the report. I will use them for future needs.

Jesse from Northwest Home Inspectors is Awesome. I bought a new home in January of this year, so I hired Jesse to do my end of warranty inspection. My goal in researching the sea of inspectors was identifying someone that offers infared as part of their package. Long story short, the infared saved me a Ton of money. Jesse's infared along with his water detection identified a leak in my master Bedroom shower. New home owners the minimal investment in Northwest Home Inspection is worth every penny for piece of mind. You don't know what you don't know Thanks again Jesse! read more

See all

WOW!!!!! Currently in escrow on my third home, and attempting to close in three weeks. Straight up NW Home Inspector beats whoever else is out there. His website is better. His scheduling application is better-- its Google Calendar - which was awesome. The report you will get is better. And his price is better. At first I wasn't certain that his price was better. My realtor provided several home inspector options to me and NW Home Inspector appeared to be in the middle on price. However, as I reviewed the websites of the other recommended Home Inspectors, it was clear that NW was gonna beat the other guys. The other inspectors my realtor recommended had a lower "base rate" than NW. But they were going to nickel and dime (well $70 - $150 me) for each "added" item. These "added" items were going to add up to well over NW's fee. NW will bring an infrared camera (allows you to see heat distribution, and leaks, behind walls), test every single outlet in the home, every crawlspace, and identify hazards and risks. The other companies were going to charge extra for the infrared camera. And the infrared camera is something you absolutely need as you have no idea what is behind the walls. And buying a home, especially an older home, without knowing that, is a huge risk that can result in significant financial loss -- see my review of REIG in San Diego, CA. NW explained every single item in detail that he noted. This is extremely important as it allowed me to gather an accurate quote on repair or replacement that I then presented the seller. Without NW's assistance, I wouldn't have been able to effectively negotiate my conditions and contingencies for purchase. You might think that, yes what I listed above is what any home inspector would do. I can assure you that it is not. In short pick NorthWest Home Inspector for whatever your needs are. He will provide you with premier service and answer all your questions. if he doesn't know an answer immediately he will respond to you via email promptly that addresses your question or concern. read more

Jesse was incredible with our home inspection! He was fairly priced, did awesome imaging with his drone, used infrared to make sure there were no gas or water leaks, and was very detailed in his inspection. He left no stone unturned in our newly constructed home and found issues that others might have looked past. This will be our fourth home we've bought in three states and by FAR Jesse is the absolute best inspector! He was quick in delivering the report and it was extremely thorough! The use of technology from the Google Calendar invites, his technological and cutting edge tools, down to accepting payment with an app was impressive and really convenient. If Yelp had 10 stars I'd give them all to Jesse. read more

If you're looking for a talented, experienced, honest and caring home inspector, Jesse is your guy. Last Friday we had Jesse perform an inspection on a home that we had just gone under contract. He was very accommodating to our scheduling needs and did an impressive job not only performing the actual inspection, but keeping us informed and aware of all issues and concerns. His report was delivered within hours and was very well organized and easy to understand and his insights were invaluable. Well done Jesse! Thank you. read more

we needed a last minute home inspection for a new home purchase and could not reach the referrals I was given so I googled and found Jesse. super helpful, outstanding service all around. great value as well!! read more

Real estate agents provide three inspector references to clients but Jesse is first on my list and the one most chosen after they speak with him and the one most highly reviewed after we use him. He simply knows how to cover all aspects of the home inspection process efficiently, provides my clients with results they can easily understand, excellent customer service and I appreciate his patience as some of my clients will actually follow him around during his inspection and he is patient with them even as I know it slows him down. He's so good I used him for my personal inspection and because of his advice avoided a bad housing fit. Part of me would like to keep him more secret since I want to be able to use him whenever but just look at his reviews... His services are well known and reviews speak for themselves. read more

Jesse helped us on our inspection when we purchased our first home in Tacoma. Had multiple pre-inspections and a full on the property we purchased. He saved us on a couple properties with the pre-inspections. He was extremely professional and super thorough. We just used him for our end of year warrantee on our new construction home we purchased and received the same level of service. Highly recommend Jesse to anyone needing an inspector. read more

We are so grateful for Jesse's attention to detail, expertise, and kindness throughout the home inspection process. We had a great experience being invited into the work to ask questions. Jesse was generous in sharing his knowledge, and the education has us feeling more confident to care for an old home. We are excited to make a great recommendation to friends looking for an inspector! read more

Jesse was prompt, courteous, and answered ALL of my questions. He even explained things I should look for when looking at maintaining my home. I have already referred Jesse to many of my other neighbors, and will continue to refer him if I'm asked. read more

Jesse is a true professional with a tremendous amount of expertise. I love watching passionate professionals do their work and Jesse was a joy to work with. He is calm, well spoken and personable. These qualities helped ease my tension and allowed me to remain attentive throughout the inspection. Jesse explained his findings clearly and patiently and provided us with our finalized report the same day as the service! Did I mention the drone? Loved his high tech equipment. I highly recommend Jesse! read more
