Carol did a great job with my condo inspection and I couldn't be more happy with her work! I was particularly... impressed with how thorough she was, and how she took the time to explain everything that needed to be done, what was urgent, what could wait, and why. Excellent communication prior to the inspection, very responsive, and easy to book a time with her. Very nice to speak to as well, and took 100% of the stress out of this step of a home purchase!read more

Our inspector from Mose, Micheal Kallaur was excellent. He inspected 2 homes for us and one of them was a bit of a... tricky situation. He went above and beyond to make sure the home was properly inspected, even going back a second time (asap) as a certain area was impassable the first time. Micheal made us feel like we could trust him now and in the future should we have any concerns about the home we purchased. 10/10 recommend.read more

My husband and I purchased our first home and Carol came highly recommended as an inspector and we couldn't be happier... with her services! She was prompt and responsive over email and found the availability to come inspect our new home within just a few days at our request. She spent a lot of time going over every detail and making us aware of all the issues with the house in a professional and friendly manner.
