BUILDING INSPECTION CUSTOMER REVIEWS

Rorio Labeeers2025-01-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thorough, Professional, and Reliable: A Top-Notch Property Inspection Experience We recently asked Alert Inspection Company to inspect a property, and we couldn’t be more impressed with their service. We requested an inspection during the holiday season, and they were quick to respond right after Christmas on the first business day. Their communication was speedy, straightforward, and professional, which made scheduling seamless. Irene was absolutely top class. She was easy to deal with and kept everything simple and clear. On the day of the inspection, Craig, the inspector, called immediately after completing the inspection. He was incredibly thorough and meticulous, going over every detail of the property. We initially thought the new build would be flawless, but Craig’s inspection uncovered numerous issues with the construction. We were shocked by how poorly the house was built, but thanks to Craig’s expertise, we got a comprehensive, detailed report of all the problems. Craig even recommended that the property be examined by a certified builder for a more in-depth assessment. His professionalism and attention to detail saved us from a potentially costly mistake. Overall, our experience with Alert Inspection was very positive, and we will definitely request Craig again for future inspections. Highly recommend their services!
