Description Of Work: I had a home inspection of a REO property I was buying.
Member Comments: I called Mr. Standish at the last minute, and he was able to fit me in. He explained everything in advance, and I was able to check out his website and a sample report, which really helped. He arrived promptly, and did a very thorough job in every part of the house,including the roof and the crawlspace.His report arrived via email first, which was fantastic! I also received a beautiful bound report in color, with all the problems spelled out, which helped when I was having the repair work done. In addition to all this, I feel I received a very fair price, especially for the services performed. Mr Standish was also very responsive to my phone calls, when I had a few questions for clarification after I received the report. All in all, it was hassle-free and I would and do recommend Standish Inspections to my friends and family.

"I hired Lyle Standish to do a general inspection on the house I am buying. Overall I am very satisfied with his work. He spent 4 hours on the property. I received an electronic version of the report in 3 days and a couple of days later - a nicely printed and bound hard copy. Then he spent some time with me on the phone going over my questions. Professional, friendly, pleasure to work with!" |
