Absolute dumpster fire of a Company. Scott must have loved the movie Bird Box because he missed a…read moreGAS leak, a roof leak along with the low pitch of the section of my roof, leaking chimney, leaky ductwork my breaker did not have arc fault interrupters, s-trap style drains and so so much more. It was a complete waste of 500, and to top it all off I had flown in from out of state for the inspection. The only reason that an inspector would be this purposeful in missing so many critical and dangerous things is that they are working for the seller. When I reached out for an explanation or a refund I was ignored By Scott and his boss. Hammer Home inspections were WAY more thorough (I had to hire them after this willfully BOTCHED inspection) and that's how I learned about the issues. Scott was so slow with the report I missed the ability to back out of the home so my second inspection was just so my family didn't die after we flew in. ABI services takes advantage of first time homebuyers who don't know any better. I am a first time homebuyer, a woman, a POC and a Veteran and I was absolutely abused by this company. DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY

Awesome experience. Dave S was wonderful during our inspection. We were first time home-buyers and…read moretherefore ignorant about many things. But Dave was incredibly patient with us. We followed him around as he went through his check list and began giving us tips on how to care for, or maintain certain things. Anytime we had a question about something he would always answer "If this were my home..." and that was very comforting because it helped us feel that he cared about the house that we were buying. I did come in with questions prepared, and Dave was more than willing to walk me through and concerns or thoughts he had about certain parts of the house. His report that he wrote up helped us get some things paid for by the seller before the sale so that was a great plus! I would highly recommend ABI to anybody buying a house in West Michigan.

Doug was very professional, showed up on time and moved throughout the home carefully and thoughtfully. Doug was thorough, and tracked and recorded issues on his mobile device. He was happy to answer questions as we tagged along, but also gave a detailed verbal report to us before we left the property. Doug emailed us the 25 page report the same night as the inspection. Again, very pleased we found this man on yelp and would highly recommend! Cool guy doing what he enjoys! Of special note... $50 discount to public servants. As a teacher I cashed in on that.

From the owner: My Promise To You A…read morehome inspector that does home inspections in Spring Lake, Grand Haven, Muskegon and all of West Michigan I D.Obenauf Home Inspections give my customers an Honest and accurate report of the home they are purchasing. I know that choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, experience, reporting methods, and yes, different pricing. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort. If you honor me D.Obenauf Home Inspections by permitting me to inspect your new home, I guarantee that I will give you my very best effort. This I promise you.

I first met Jim Comrie at the home I was purchasing. He was prompt and got right to work. He…read morestarted his inspection by explaining the inspection process and asked about my goals concerning home repairs and improvement. Jim used the information I provided to give me valuable suggestions and advice throughout the inspection. Jim was very thorough and took his time to do the inspection right. Jim was friendly, professional, and humorous. He went above and beyond and I really got my money's worth. Jim had to return to the home to inspect the furnace since the seller had forgotten to turn the gas on for testing. Jim was concerned about the age and condition of the furnace during his initial visit so he brought a furnace expert with him upon his return. The furnace expert identified a few minor problems and worked with my wife and the seller to get these items fixed on the spot. Now that's service.
