His work is outstanding, and his attention to detail during home inspections is unmatched. Greg approaches each inspection as if it were his own home and money on the line, which gives us great confidence in his thoroughness and care. The first time, I only interacted with Greg through phone calls and emails, while my wife met him in person. She was so impressed that she insisted Greg handle all future inspections, regardless of where we buy. The second time, I had the chance to meet him in person, and I was able to witness firsthand the dedication and passion he brings to his work. A few months ago, Greg saved us from purchasing what would have been a huge financial mistake, and we are so grateful to him for that. In our most recent home purchase, Greg gave us tremendous peace of mind, assuring us that we were making a sound investment. No matter the price point of your property, I highly recommend Greg and Secure Home Inspections. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients.

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.

I like to use local, small businesses whenever possible, and his reviews were excellent. My mistake was not noticing how old they were. He advised it would take 4 to 4 1/2 hours to complete. He was there 5 hours when my realtor had to ask him to leave for the open house that was being held that day. He came back afterward to finish the roof inspection. He failed to complete an inspection for the kitchen due to "time constraints". However, he had time to note that there was a pet door that was a "safety" concern. He also stated that some items were issues that he was clearly wrong about ("minimal" strapping on a water heater that had 2 straps from a newly purchased kit and a third steel strap, replacement windows that he stated were the "builder type from the original construction"). While I appreciate thoroughness, spending time nitpicking every minor detail in a 61 year old house but not completing the full inspection I paid for is not acceptable. He did not get my name right on the report, even though I wrote it for him on the contract I signed. He did not provide the hard copy report that was promised, nor did he email it to me - I had to get it from my realtor. I'm giving him a 3 for thoroughness. If you have unlimited time to wait for this guy to complete the inspection, go for it. He may have been a great inspector in his prime, but personally I think he needs to hang it up and retire already.

Disappointing Experience - Incorrect Report and Poor Customer Service…read more I chose this company because they specialize in RPV inspections, even though I had three other inspection companies I could have used based on previous experience and my sister's recommendations as a real estate agent. When booking, I spoke with two very nice and helpful representatives. I purchased their most expensive package and added advanced imaging, sewer, pool, and solar panel inspections. I specifically told the representative that the roof was metal and I was told that it would last 40 years. I asked whether I needed a separate drone inspection since I don't know much about inspection or if the solar inspection was sufficient. I told the rep that I would rather pay and do the drone if she recommend it since I don't want to take a chance but she assured me that the roof inspection was included in the package and a separate drone inspection was unnecessary. She did recommend the air quality but she said, this is something I can add on the day of if the inspector recommends. The inspection was done on September 25, 2026, and I received the report the next day. I got to the site 5 min before my appt. but the inspector was already on the roof. To my surprise, the report incorrectly identified the metal roof as shingles. I contacted another roofing company, which confirmed it was a metal roof and explained that a drone inspection was necessary because walking on it could cause damage. This was extremely frustrating because I had clearly explained the roof type and specifically asked for guidance before booking. On top of that, the sewer inspection could not be completed due to excessive roots, and the solar panel inspection I paid extra for was missing from the report. After waiting a week, I still had not received the advanced imaging results. On October 2, I spoke with Bency about these issues and requested the missing report. I explained that if it could not be provided promptly, I wanted a refund because escrow was approaching its closing date and had already been delayed by the inspection issues. Unfortunately, Bency was rude, unprofessional, and unhelpful. He directed me to Jason, the inspection manager, so I left messages but never received a response. I also asked about a follow-up sewer inspection after hydro jetting and a drone inspection to address the roof and missing solar inspection, but nothing was resolved. As of October 9, I was still waiting for someone to contact me. The one positive experience was Nathan from Elite, who called to ask about my experience. He was kind, listened to my concerns, and said he would speak with the appropriate person. However, another week passed without any follow-up. Overall, I regret choosing this company. The incorrect roof report, missing inspection results, delays, and lack of communication caused unnecessary stress during an already time-sensitive real estate transaction. Mistakes can happen, but I expected the company to take responsibility and resolve them professionally. Instead, I had to repeatedly chase answers, and my interaction with Bency made the situation even worse. I would not recommend this company based on my experience. I wish I had used my previous inspection company or followed my sister's recommendation. Be sure to confirm exactly what is included in your inspection and make sure all reports are delivered before relying on them for your real estate transaction.
