The team was highly professional, thorough, and detail-oriented throughout every step of the inspection.

I truly appreciate their professionalism, careful approach, and friendly attitude. I highly recommend their services!

From the start they communicated clearly and walked us through what they were seeing during the inspection. What stood out most was their honesty. I even gave them an opportunity to upsell additional services, but they respectfully told me it wasn't necessary based on their observations. That level of integrity made me trust their work even more. We're moving to the Bay Area from Los Angeles, so having a reliable inspection in a new place was really important for our family. I'd confidently recommend Ramey's Home Inspection to anyone. Pros: * Very thorough inspection * Honest recommendations (no upselling) * Great communication * Team approach made the process efficient * Helped us feel confident about our home purchase

He was originally recommended by our real estate agent to inspect a property we were preparing to sell. Scott was prompt, thorough, and highly professional. He handled a difficult situation with a non-cooperative tenant with patience and professionalism, which we really appreciated. His report was detailed, with clear documentation and quality photos. When we decided to relist the house this year, I reached out to Scott for an updated inspection, and once again he responded quickly, came out right away, and provided a revised report at a discounted rate. We were very pleased with his service and attention to detail. Highly recommend Scott for anyone needing a reliable and professional home inspector.

The level of detail…read moreand depth of knowledge he provides easily justify the cost of the inspection, which pays for itself several times over when deciding who and what work to do. Matt conducted a very thorough inspection and, more importantly, helped my family understand how to prioritize the work our home needed. His report gave us the knowledge and confidence to speak with contractors and make sure we were focusing on the right repairs rather than unnecessary work. What really stood out was that Matt didn't disappear after the inspection. He remained available for follow-up questions and was incredibly generous with his time and advice as we evaluated contractor proposals. His insight helped us navigate some very expensive recommendations and focus on practical, staged solutions instead. If you want a home inspector who is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping homeowners make smart decisions, I can't recommend Matt highly enough. Working with him was invaluable for our family.

TL;DR - I had a wonderful experience with Matt and highly recommend Cantor Inspections. He is warm,…read moregracious with his time, and incredibly knowledgeable. He wears many hats--part inspector, part anthropologist, part design historian, and so much more. Matt was communicative and able to fit in an inspection of my home almost immediately. I also found his rate to be very affordable, especially given the quality of work and his attention to detail. Long Form Review - I live in Oakland and have a craftsman style house built in 1913. My wife and I bought the house in 2022 as first time homebuyers. We have been so happy in the home, but it has a range of issues and quirks, as I imagine all century-old buildings do. We have done several repairs and renovations on the home already and have many more projects planned. From the initial inspection report and after having lived in the home for 3 years, we thought we had a pretty good idea of what projects and repairs needed to come next. However, before committing any more time and money to any future projects, we felt that we needed an expert, third-party source to help us reevaluate the home, prioritize future work, and identify urgent repairs. This was the context with which I reached out to Matt at Cantor Inspections. I initially messaged Matt via Yelp, and he got back to me almost immediately. Even though he was traveling internationally at the time, he was incredibly communicative and was able to schedule me as soon as he got back from his trip. On the day of the inspection, Matt arrived on time and was more than happy to have me shadow him. The inspection took about 6 hours and I was probably able to follow Matt around for 80-90% of it, observing, taking notes, and picking his brain over a myriad of different issues. Matt is warm, kind, and patient. He answered all of my questions and provided me with quite the history lesson regarding Craftsmen style homes, as well as lessons on construction techniques, material science, engineering, and much, much more. I also found Matt to be empathetic and understanding of my unique situation, more than willing to talk through the issues that were most salient to me. In terms of the report itself and Matt's work, I found it to be very in-depth and comprehensive. In the Recommendations section, Matt does a great job of identifying an issue, describing why that issue is a problem, and outlining steps to fixing said issue. Overall, Cantor Inspections went above and beyond in helping my wife and I reevaluate our home, prioritize future work, and identify urgent repairs. Lastly, I'll add that Matt was great with our dog and cat, who also followed Matt around for most of the day.

Mitch was not only punctual and professional, but also incredibly personable and knowledgeable. His attention to detail and willingness to explain every aspect of the inspection was beyond impressive. I learned so much from him--not just about our specific home, but about home construction and maintenance in general. He spent several thorough hours inspecting everything from the roof and attic to the crawl space, exterior, and interior of the property. It's rare to find someone so dedicated and passionate about their work, and it truly shows in the level of care and detail Mitch brings to the job. Without a doubt, I'll be hiring Mitch again for any future home-related needs, and I will enthusiastically refer him to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and thorough home inspector.

What stood out most was his honesty and willingness to educate us throughout the process. He never rushed, answered all of our questions, and made sure we felt comfortable every step of the way. He also reassured us that we could reach out anytime after receiving the report, which gave us a lot of peace of mind knowing we have someone we can trust even after the inspection. On top of that, his pricing was very reasonable compared to other quotes we received. Highly recommend Howard to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, honest, and supportive home inspector.

What stood out: Honesty: When we first reached out, they didn't try to immediately sell us a service. Instead, they advised us to check whether the property had been previously treated and if any warranty might still be in place. Thorough inspection & fair pricing: We received quotes from several companies, and Contra Costa Termite Control stood out. Larry conducted a detailed inspection, clearly explained the recommended work, and provided a competitive, transparent quote. Communication: When heavy rain was forecasted on our scheduled treatment day, they proactively suggested rescheduling to ensure the treatment would be effective. Professional, knowledgeable, honest, and easy to work with. We would absolutely use them again.

"Jerry's got nothing. Newman's got nothing. You're the only one I know who's got the good stuff,…read moreand I need it bad, baby, cause I feel like I got bugs crawling up my skin. Now you gotta help me out." -Cosmo Kramer, Seinfeld Da Scene: Like many recent reviewers, we were kinda freaked out by the appearance of some little black bugs (kinda like long ants) in a couple of areas INSIDE the house after the 1st rains of the season. In our case it was compounded by the fact that they appeared to be coming in through the ATTIC and dropping down; not coming up through the crawl space under the house. I found maybe a total of 20 of the little guys in 3 spots (kitchen counter under the range vent, guest bathroom under the skylight, and disturbingly; master bedroom under some recessed lighting, right on my pillow - Aaaaaaah!??!). After 20+ years in our home, it's the 1st occurrence so we were pretty concerned. After internet searches, image comparisons we determined subterranean termites and wanted them "taken care of". Da Work: Opened a YELP! Project and jobbed a quote out to several outfits with descriptions and images, wasn't happy with the 1st round of responses, did some more searching and added a few more manually. Contra Costa Termite Control's initial response stood out from the crowd. 1. Jen 1st took the time to explain the background of why this was happening (detailed in many other reviews, so I'll leave that out here) and to reassure us that we in the highest probability did NOT have an infestation; we would likely not see any more activity. She went on to suggest a wait and see approach before scheduling an unnecessary inspection. 2. For piece of mind, I insisted that I'd like them to come out anyway to confirm her suspicions, it had been since we bought the house when we had the last inspection, so I thought why not? 3. Joe came out and checked the crawl space only, explaining the odd source coming from the attic as during the initial "swarm" happening outside, a few of the little guys flew in through the attic vents and "went towards the light". He did find some other non-related/not urgent issues under our bathroom areas which we'll take care of in the spring. Quick & easy... parcheesy. Da Service: Can't sing their praises high enough. From start to finish this outfit is customer-focused, thoughtful and knowledgeable. They shared information freely and never pushed for services or action, only providing options. This can't be said of some of the other contractors who contacted us on the project... MANY were quick to push treatment options right off the bat. Great communications via YELP! then txt/sms, email invoicing and payment options like check, debit/credit card, Zelle or Venmo. Just a CLASS OPERATION all around - thanks for the help and use me as a reference anytime!
