Tate at A Firm Foundation did a thorough job and gave a detailed report. My wife and I now have a manual we can refer back to whenever we have questions about our home. Very pleased with the whole experience!

Tate did a very thorough and speedy inspection, and his work resulted in seller-responsible repairs almost five times the cost of the inspection. That's a good ROI.

Tate did an amazing job! One of the more thorough inspections we have had, and so appreciated. He really took the time to discuss any issues and was very knowledgable. His reporting software is the bomb, so super easy to understand and read. From the minute we called to make an appointment, Tate and his team have been nothing but professional and very responsive. Highly recommend!

Tate was amazing to work with. We had a quick closing and couldn't find anyone to do the inspection in short notice. Tate came through with flying colors. I would recommend Firm Foundation Home and Building Inspection to anyone in need of this service. Tate was fast and professional on every level. Thank you so much, Jeff
