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.

We've used Brooks and Sons Inspections twice now, and both experiences were excellent. Jerry is…read morepunctual, incredibly thorough, and thoughtful in the way he approaches inspections. 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!!

Trust Christian's google reviews. It is incredibly rare to find someone who genuinely cares about…read morehis clients AND is exceptionally good at what he does. Christian is both. We hired 7 different inspectors and specialists for a complicated 2,500 sq. ft. fixer-upper, and Christian spent nearly three hours at the property. He was the last person to leave. What really sets Christian apart is his background. He didn't learn about houses solely from inspecting them, HE ACTUALLY BUILT THEM. That experience shows. He has a wealth of practical knowledge and understands how a house works as a whole, not just how to go down an inspection checklist. He notices the things most people would walk right past and can connect one seemingly small observation to what may actually be happening behind it. He is incredibly thorough. He also doesn't catastrophize. He pointed out the bad, explained why it mattered and what could realistically be done about it, but he was equally willing to point out what was good. On a fixer-upper, that objectivity is invaluable. You don't want someone who scares you away from every imperfection, and you definitely don't want someone who minimizes real problems. You want someone knowledgeable enough to know the difference. This particular house meant a lot to us. It's our dream home, and we weren't quite ready to let it go. I came into this extremely prepared, months of research, digging through records and studying this specific property. We didn't get the house the first time. Or the second. Third time's a charm. Christian understood that buying a home like this isn't just a transaction. He took the time to understand what we were trying to do while still giving us an objective assessment of the property. At one point, he shared some wisdom with me that genuinely stuck. "You guys are young, be ambitious." and though I know I already am... that hit VERY meaningfully esp at this stage of our lives. I grew up without a father, and my mom had to leave when I was young to work and provide for us. So having someone with Christian's experience take the time to talk to us not just as clients, but as a young couple trying to build something for our little family eased my anxiety. Buying a house, especially a fixer, is emotional, exhausting and draining. But nothing worth having comes easy, and sometimes neither does a genuinely good deal. Christian staying there for three hours, answering questions, sharing decades of practical knowledge and making absolutely sure he understood the property before leaving tells you a lot about him as a person. But his kindness should not overshadow the reason I would hire him again in a heartbeat: the man seriously knows houses. I mean, I booked 7 different specialists. I know exactly the type of people im hiring and what I expect from them. And if he could deeply and fully investigate a heavy fixer home, what a breeze it'd be if you are buying a turnkey. Christian delivered services above and beyond and even offered to come back for free if additional inspection is needed. I mean who does that?! I insisted to pay again if he has to do that, because I respect his time. Thorough, knowledgeable, objective, practical and genuinely kind. Christian is such a unicorn. That combination doesn't probably exist even on Mars! Thank you so much Christian!!!
