Perhaps get an appointment book online for people to select times and you can either confirm or deny them. Or you can simply upload your blocked times and dates- 1 to 2 weeks ahead of time for people to see your availability. Then people can select and fill out a brief survey for you to collect their information. Like a virtual secretary and appointment setter. Just a suggestion. Sharaka M. Leonard

I couldn't have asked for a better or more thorough inspector!

George was able to arrange his schedule to do my inspection the day before. He came to the property earlier and had already inspected the roof and foundation.

His report was also very helpful with good pictures and explanations. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Great job! I look forward to working with him in the future.
- C.L., January 2017
I love how George interacts with my clients. He likes to educate them and helps them understand how everything works and how to maintain them. The only suggestion I would give is to add in the report a way to rate the significance of an issue reported (mild, moderate, extreme) or something similar (minor/major; cosmetic/safety issue; etc). It would help me and my clients to understand the significance of any items called out or in disrepair. Thanks again and I will definitely be using George again!! Loreal
- L.U., January 2017
George did a very good job overall. It snowed the day before we had the inspection, so not able to visually climb up and inspect the roof, gutters and chimney. Prompt and on time. Explained to us a few things he found when meeting us. Inspection report was very detailed. I was impressed on how fast he got the report to us. I would highly recommend.

- P.P., November 2016
George helped us inspected two homes, and in both instances George done an excellent job. George allowed us to tag along with him while he inspected each area of the house (outside, inside, attic, backyard, trees affecting home, basement, electric panel, furnace, heating, water, etc? basically every corner of the home). During the inspection process George explained what he was doing and what he was observing, pin pointed the problems, provided the reason for the problem, provided his recommendation and solution, and more importantly allowed us to ask questions. George also provided a very detail inspection report within 24 hours for us to review. With this report, we were well informed about the condition of the home which assisted us with our decision making. We walked away from one purchase due to concrete foundation and moisture in the basement that would be a disaster for us down the line. All-in-all, George was friendly and great to work with. I highly recommend George if you?re looking for an inspector for your new house.
- M.L., November 2016
