Luke Angelo & his teammate of SLS Home Inspection were incredibly friendly and took the time to walk me through a very thorough and informative inspection. The final report was 76 pages long that contained observations and pictures of items that needed to be addressed. I appreciated Luke's opinions and recommendations to contact qualified contractors. The inclusion of positive pictures was also a great touch as it provided a well rounded view of my property's condition. read more

Luke Anglea did a fantastic job with the home inspection for a rental property purchase that I am considering. The report was very thorough, and I am fully satisfied with the condition of the home before my purchase because of what the report shows. I was sent an 88-page report that goes over the house from top to bottom with lots of pictures and recommendations. I highly recommend SLS Home Inspections if you want to know the condition of a house before the sale finalizes. Thank you Luke!! read more

As a first-time home buyer, I was nervous about the inspection process, but Luke with SLS Home Inspections made everything incredibly easy and stress-free. He was knowledgeable, professional, and extremely thorough. Instead of just pointing out issues, he took the time to walk us through what each item meant, how serious it was, and what our options were moving forward. Even with snow covering the roof, Luke went above and beyond to evaluate it as thoroughly as possible. The detailed report (with lots of photos!) came quickly and was very organized/easy to understand. We highly recommend Luke at SLS Home Inspections to any first-time buyer or anyone who is looking for a knowledgeable inspector. read more

Scott Seaton was my home inspector in Kankakee, Illinois and he did an outstanding job. I called him a couple of times to clarify the report and he was very helpful and thorough. I highly recommend him if you want a detailed report with pictures and improvements needed. I live out of the state, and he was trustworthy and offered helpful suggestions. Thanks again Scott! read more

Scott and Luke did an excellent job with our home inspection. We are so pleased with how through and competent they were with their inspection of our home. I would recommend them to anyone who is selling or buying a home. We had the inspection end only an hour ago, and we will have our full report this emailed to us this evening. I appreciate how prompt and professional they both where. read more

I'm a realtor and have used Scott a couple times when I'm out closer to his area, he is an amazing home inspector! I will continue to use him to provide great quality, home inspections for my clients. Very friendly, and very thorough. Thanks Scott for great service! read more

We used them for our inspection On a house we are buying. 100% recommend them! They explained everything and had no problem answering all of our questions. read more

Scott, from SLS Home Inspections, showed up on time and presented himself very professionally. He gathered all the necessary information before the inspection and confirmed the time, the price, and our address by email prior to the appointment, which was greatly appreciated. The inspection was very thorough and he took the time to explain many areas where we could make improvements even though they weren't items that were specifically in violation of codes. A lengthy and detailed report, including photos, was received within hours. We were very satisfied with his services and would recommend him highly. read more

Scott did an amazing job. As a first time home buyer who is not very home repair savvy he walked me through the house and patiently explained everything to me. Unfortunately, my first house fell through because of zoning; however, Scott is so great I'm using him for the second house I'm putting an offer in on. read more

Scott did a very thorough job while inspecting our future home. Afterwards he sat us down and explained his findings, went over our warranty options, and answered all of our questions. He quickly got us all of the paperwork we needed and it is all really easy to follow. I highly recommend Scott! read more

My wife and I recently bought our first house and we went with SLS for our inspection. Scott was almost unbelievably helpful. In short, I absolutely recommend him. He explained what he saw as he saw it. He answered every question I had (provided it was his specialty). He was clear when he didn't know the answer or when some specialist would be better equipped to answer my questions. I had some concerns about a bubble in an exterior wall so he brought out this high-tech thermal camera and explained what it meant that the spot was a different temperature than the surrounding area. He asked if I wanted to see the attic and even gave me a few helpful tips on managing all of the cellulose insulation. Finally, he explained the report he was going to put together. He was very thorough with the pictures he included. The report even has a section of things that are awesome about the house. read more

I am a first time home buyer which is scary in itself. Scott made the inspection process very easy, and explained exactly what he was doing in very simple terms. He took the time to go through everything completely, and even mentioned a few things that were not even on the inspection sheet. Upon completion of the inspection he took the time to review everything that he did, and give suggestions on next steps on the process. The report was in my email first thing the next morning, and with the detail that was in the report that was very impressive. I can not say enough good about Scott Seaton! He is a professional with a huge heart, seems to love what he does, and does a great job at making something that could terrify the day lights out of a first time buyer just as comfortable as any of the other processes along the way to purchasing a house. I am not looking to buy a house in the immediate future, but when I do I know who I am calling for every inspection in the future! Thanks Scott read more

I hired this company to purchase my forever home for my son and me. I am not a contractor so I relied heavily on what I was told during my inspection to negotiate the price or our future home. I was told the roof needed "some repairs" in which I was going to have a addressed so I could make the roof last another few years. I was told when I asked the inspector directly about the condition of the roof....that the roof had "time left on it". However less than 2 months after closing i had a roofer recommended by this very inspector come give me estimate for some repairs and was told I needed a whole roof. This inspector is garbage and the warranty they advertise is only to protect themselves. The pictures taken of my home were just used against me and in my opinion the advice I was given during the inspection was garbage. Less than 2 months after closing I have to spend $10000 on a new roof; emphasis on "I". read more

SLS was incredibly thorough and made us feel like they were truly taking their time to inspect our home. We are first time home buyers so we relied on recommendations from friends and family. Everyone had wonderful things to say about SLS Home Inspections. Not only did we have a positive experience with the overall inspection, but everything before and after in terms of how we received the inspection agreement, follow up items + the final report and lastly the recall information was VERY slick and updated which is a huge plus in our book! We would 100% recommend SLS. read more

The inspector put his foot through the ceiling. I used Scott and his company SLS Inspections before and was happy, but this time I had a terrible experience. Luke performed my inspection, and he was professional until he was in the attic and stepped one foot off of the beams and onto the drywall, putting a foot through and damaging the ceiling. From that point forward, he was flustered and the inspection went downhill quickly. He continually opened and left the door open near the Radon testing machine, which can effect it's results. I added an upgrade service including mold inspection and thermal imaging, and that wasn't done in a thorough manner. I emailed Luke my concerns, and received an unprofessional response. I then emailed Scott (the owner) with questions and received no reply for 4 days- he later said he was out of town and out off cell range. Scott subcontracted a Radon testing company, and I wanted to talk to them to see if the test was compromised. I asked repeatedly for the contact information for the Radon company, but was told "they will email you". They did not get in contact with me. My lawyer had to file an extension, and wanted to know why I couldn't get the name of the Radon testing company, and only after I told them SLS was unresponsive and gave my lawyer SLS' information, did I get a response with the name and contact info of the Radon testing company. When I raised concerns about the inspection, Scott replied it was a "teaching moment" for Luke. When I pointed out that I didn't pay for a teaching moment, but a professional inspection, I was offered a refund. The refund offer came with a waiver, which I gave to my lawyer. He advised me not to sign it. SLS wanted to waive any liability for the damage they caused. Although SLS repaired the damage, if the repair was not up to standards or homeowners had another accident in the same place, I could be sued as the person who hired the inspection company that caused the damage and made the repair. In my opinion, it's suspect for SLS to want to waive responsibility for damage it caused and it's repair. The waiver also included a paragraph stating that I was unable to review, use social media, or make oral statements that left the company in a bad light. When I asked the lawyer if I could write a factual review or confide in friends, I was told I could not, as this would put the company in a bad light, even if it was true. I went with my lawyers advice. I didn't sign the waiver, and I didn't get a refund, and I'm out over $500. I understand accidents happen and it's lucky Luke did not fall through the ceiling, but the conduct and series of choices following is what I consider to be unacceptable and unprofessional. read more

Scott is very helpful and eager to take care of his clients. He takes great pride in his work and goes out of his way to do everything he can to help homeowners. I would recommend SLS Home Inspections.. read more

When I spoke to the owner on the phone he seemed to be a very professional person with a lot of knowledge. However the inspector that showed up to my house had no idea what he was doing. Didn't go in the crawl space just stuck his head down there. Same thing in the attic. Had no clue how to look at a furnace. It would've been nice to know there was no sump pump before the entire space flooded the week I moved in. Also would've been nice to know the compressor on the air conditioner didn't work. I messaged the owner about these things and absolutely no response. Spent $400 for nothing. Would not recommend these guys at all it would've been the same if I did it myself read more

Scott did a fantastic job! We were able to make an appointment and do the inspection within 3 days. I am a first time home buyer so he really took his time explaining everything to me as we went along. The home inspection was very thorough and he inspected every part of the home he could get to. He offers a 90 warranty service along with a recall check on all appliances. I would highly recommend Scott to anyone! read more

Very thorough. Easy to set up appointment and a really nice guy. Answers any questions you have

I am a first time home buyer so I have heard a lot of negative things about the experience from the realtor all the way to the closing. My realtor Dawn Olsen recommended Scott Seaton's services and he did not disappoint. He went through everything on the house with me and answered all questions I had. I would definitely recommend Scott's services to anybody. Great job!! read more
