We work hard to uncover defects and report the issues that need to be addressed now or in the near future. Whether it's your first house or your fifth, buying a home is a tedious process as well as one of the largest investments you'll make. Having your future home professionally inspected will equip you with the knowledge you'll need to make an informed decision on how to proceed.
As your inspector, I will evaluate the property with the same diligence as if I were purchasing it for myself. I prefer that you join me at the inspection so I can familiarize you with the home and answer any questions you may have. I've been a home inspector since 1992, and have performed more than 15,500 property inspections.

Services
It's crucial to do some research and learn about a potential Home Inspectors experience and reputation. Do some homework before you hire and entrust probably the most expensive purchase of your life! Will the inspector be available to answer questions; days, weeks, or months after the inspection?. Over the course of 29 years inspecting houses and other structures, performing 16,000 + inspections, I've probably seen most conditions imaginable.
The Roof Inspection will include a thorough and complete visual inspection of the roof by walking it and viewing all accessible attic spaces. You'll receive a report with photos detailing the condition and life expectancy of the roof. We provide the most thorough evaluation possible. Issues that might not be visibly obvious may be easily detected by walking on the roof.
You can expect your inspection to take approximately 3 hours. Each property is unique, your inspection may take more time or less. I won't rush, I will spend the time needed to thoroughly assess the property and address your questions. I'll also provide maintenance tips, fire prevention and energy efficiency tips.

When Chuck says he will inspect your home as if it were his own, he means it. During the inspection, he was eager to explain things to me in detail. It was easy to trust his expertise, and I never felt like I was bothering him. Moreover, I was able to book an appointment with him quickly, and the turnaround time for the report was lightning fast! Chuck is a personable, clearly seasoned professional, and I would recommend him to my friends and family in a heartbeat.

As a Realtor, I have been recommending Chuck to my buyers and even sellers for the past 15 years. He is extremely thorough and interacts extremely well with my clients. He encourages them to follow him during the inspection, ask questions and takes the time to point out exactly what will be put on his report. He is quick to point out significant items of concern but also to point out minor items that are common to a home of its age which are not of any real concern but he must notate on the report. This leaves no surprises when the official report comes out. I have never had a client make a complaint

We have used Chuck on 3 home inspections now and absolutely love him because he is extremely thorough and detail oriented. He is easy to talk to, explains things very well to you, and his report is absolutely fantastic. Chuck gets in the nooks and crannies of the home and will even climb up on the roof (weather permitting, and if possible of course), and we certainly appreciate how personable he is.

Chuck was so helpful and made sure we understood everything that he marked or pointed out. We asked a lot of questions and got great answers in return. This is our first home purchase, so his attention to detail and ensuring we understood all aspects of the inspection were amazing. Would definitely recommend him and we will be using him again for any other inspections in the future.

Chuck was absolutely amazing in every way during our recent inspection on our home. He arrived on time and was incredibly thorough in his inspection of the home. He caught things I had never noticed and took the time to carefully review his findings with us at the end. He kept a very clean work environment and was professional and courteous too. We highly recommend him if you are buying a home. It was well worth the investment and I learned so much that will help us care for the house effectively!

I am so glad someone recommended Porter Home Inspections for my pre-drywall and new home inspections. I was blown away with how throughout Chuck was and how detailed the report was. Very easy to work with and polite and friendly. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to my friends and family.
