The inspector, Jed, did a fabulous job. He is so easy to work with! Knowledgeable, patient, super responsive to questions, just a pleasure to work with! The report received was very detailed with lots of pictures and even videos. They also have a concierge service that comes with the inspection. I haven't used it yet, but it looks great. Includes help with utility set up, recall checks, lifetime technical support and warranties. I will be using Inspect Montana when I have future inspection needs.

First he will tell you not to talk to him while he is here. He claimed that my HVAC was beyond it life expectancy but took no photos and did not further define the problems. There there notes of failed components, a file folder of attempted repairs, cut and capped wires, etc. This repair was denied. He claimed my hot water heater was inaccessible and could not be inspected due to a insulation blanket. Again, there was a file folder of failed repairs, notes taped to the cabinet door, replacement parts (anode rods, thermostats and heating elements) in the cabinet. The photo he took shows that the insulation blanket was opened, the metal doors to the thermostat and heating elements had been removed and were sitting on top of the hot water heater. This repair was denied. He claims my attic does not have proper ventilation. I do not have an attic and there are no access doors to my non-existent attic. He claims I have not mold. Although numerous of his photos, in the report show mold. This repair was denied. He claims he did not have access to my 36" high crawl space that has five fully functioning access doors. There are photos in his report that he took deep into the crawl space. He notes that the additional structures attached on the north and south side of my home were not attached properly and need structural screws and joist hangers and that the upright support were failing. He listed this as a minor concern even though my roof is leaking along 103 foot of attachment. Due to his categorization this repair was denied. He states that my windows are vinyl double pane and in good shape. I have 18 windows. I had replaced six the 18 but the remaining windows are from 1991 and are aluminum single pane store windows with broken mechanisms. We put as major concerns that my utility hood ups are too close together when Northwestern Energy has declared them just fine and standard for all 220 lots in my neighborhood. There is no repair available. He lists broken concrete on my rented lot as a major concern. Both the concrete and the utility hook ups are on a leased lot and I am not responsible for them and it would be illegal for me to make changes to these items. He charged over $1000 for this inspection and refused to reconsider these grevious errors. He refused to talk to me which is why I put notes, file folders and parts at the HVAC and Hot Water Heater. There is more, but you get the idea. DO NOT USE HIM EVER.

The decision to go with Dave Ritchie of Touchstone Home Inspection was 100% the right choice. He did an excellent and thorough home inspection, stopping to take extra time throughout his inspection to describe in detail any concerns he came across and to answer any of our questions. Dave is extremely professional and timely, sending the home inspection report (with photos) in under 24 hours after inspection. After receiving the report, we had a few questions and he quickly responded to our inquiries. Not only does Dave provide comprehensive service, he also included additional services and warranties in his inspection bundle that other home inspectors do not; including a 90 day warranty, SewerGard Warranty, RecallChek, and more. He also had the extra thoughtful touch of providing considerate extras such as a retractable measuring tape, flashlight pen, etc. for our use during the home inspection. The seller even remarked that he wished he had used Dave for his new home's inspection that took place earlier in the week. Overall, if you are looking for a home inspection in the Bitterroot Valley, I would recommend Dave Richie without reservations.

We had a very positive experience with Sapphire Waterworks. Kelsi is extremely knowledgeable and…read moreclearly knows what she's doing. Both of our water system warranties had expired, and after an event that completely damaged our softener and iron filter, we struggled to find anyone willing to help repair them. Most companies we contacted only wanted to sell us entirely new systems. Kelsi took the time to work with what we already had. She came out, diagnosed the problems, and successfully fixed and rebooted both systems instead of pushing unnecessary replacements. That made a big difference for us. She also communicated very well throughout the entire process. She always followed up, kept us informed, and never left us wondering what was happening next. We truly appreciated her honesty, professionalism, and willingness to help us get our systems working again. We highly recommend Sapphire Waterworks and especially Kelsi for anyone needing knowledgeable and reliable water system service. Thank you Kelsi

Also note, the only other two reviews are within the past 24 hour period, no doubt solicited by this desperate owner, to her friends. Too much of a coincidence. We are pursuing this matter in civil court so time will tell whether she's truthful here, or in her denial to us about not having insurance. The photos don't lie. Look closely. Blow them up. This is shoddy work! Irresponsible. Unethical. Shameful. No wonder she doesn't disclose her last name publicly. People do that when they have something to hide.

And when I say minimal, I mean less than a little bit of dust. We hired Serv pro (BIG MISTAKE) before we left town for work to start the clean up process. They removed EVERY piece of fabric from my house and sent it away for cleaning (TOTALLY UNNECESSARY!!) all of my belongings were gone for months and brought back in an unorganized, discombobulated mess. They took forever to do everything. My house was totally normal before I left and when I came back it was a disaster and not even close to being clean. They took everything out of the garage (the stuff that actually needed cleaning) and brought most of it back uncleaned piled in garbage bags!! Several of my most expensive items were 'misplaced' and I had to confront them several times to get them back. And here's the worst part- they charged my insurance company over $100,000!!!!!! I told the insurance company we were being ripped off but they told me they have to just go ahead and pay them or Serv pro will put a lien on my house. I've never been so disgusted by a company in my life. Literally one of the biggest scams I've ever encountered. DO NOT LET THEM NEAR YOUR HOME!
