We used Kevin for our renovation loan and he was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. As first time home buyers we had a lot of questions and Kevin was always there to help us out! Would absolutely recommend him for a renovation consultant or a standard home inspection. Thanks, Kevin!

We have used Kevin for both of our home inspections and we are very pleased with him. He is very thorough and takes time in what he is doing. He goes through everything he finds and explains it in a way that is easy to understand. His services are also very affordable, especially considering the level of thoroughness he provides. I would definitely recommend Kevin!

He did an inspection in our house, and broke a light fixture. It was half cleaned up, with shards of glass left on and under the bed, and nobody said a word to us about it. Glad he wasn't working for us, and makes me wonder about his integrity in general.

Kevin was outstanding! He took the time to truly inspect every nook and cranny of our potential new home. He talked to us as he was working so we would understand what he was looking at. He also gave us tips for maintaining the roof, water heater, boiler, etc. He did an excellent job and quickly delivered a thorough, detailed report. He was nice and extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend Kevin and House Detectives. You won't find a better home inspector; he's tops!

Kevin is amazing! We have used him now 3 times in the past 2 years and we finally found the perfect house. I would never call anyone else. He walks you though what he is doing and a great tour guide of the house. His reports are very detailed and easy to read. I would recommend him to anyone!

This review is in regards to Katie Hobbins' review from 7 months ago on her property that we hired Kevin to inspect. We hired Kevin to inspect the home in question based on a high recommendation from our real estate agent. There was a lot that we really loved about this house, enough that we ignored a few issues during our first walk-through in hopes of some easy fixes. After the inspection, however, Kevin found these and many more problems that showed how poor of an investment this home would have been. There were major problems, including a leaking upstairs bathroom showing water stains on the

This is the second time I’ve used Kevin. He was prompt in scheduling my inspection. It was a large mixed use property and poor weather. Neither fact deterred him from doing a thorough job. Even though it was the end of the year and around the holidays I still had a 40 page report delivered in less than 36 house. Will use him again!

I have used Kevin on several occasions for both residential and commercial properties. I find him to be very knowledgeable, fair, and resourceful. I have also recommended him to various friends and associates, who have all had very positive experiences.

Kevin is extremely thorough with his inspections. He not only inspected every appliance and room but also showed me how everything worked and took the time to find the outlets that were controlled by switches! He got a report to me the morning after a 3pm inspection the previous day. Would do business again!

Kevin was very thorough and helped us justify fixes that saved us thousands of dollars. Our realtor who has been apart of many inspections also commented on his thoroughness verse other competitors. We recommend!
