My name is Ken Wick, and I am the owner of 5 Star Home Inspections. I do my very best to do complete, thorough, detailed, timely and professional home inspections for buyers, sellers, investors and homeowners! If you prefer to attend the inspection and see what I see - you are always welcome! You are going to live there and maintain it - learn more about your house and attend the inspection!.
Crawlspaces aren't exactly vacation destinations, and it's no wonder why most people don't visit there often. It's dark, damp, and yes, usually spider infested! Fortunately for home inspectors like us, we get to visit crawlspaces every day! There are lots of different things that we look for when inspecting a crawl space.
Here are some easy ways to make your home inspection go smoother, with fewer concerns to delay closing. Not only to the house but also furnaces, water heaters and air conditioning units (especially in closets, attics and crawl spaces). Clearing away household belongings is helpful. An orderly house shows better and allows an inspector to do their job with minimal interruptions and delays.
If you are thinking about selling or buying a home in the Treasure Valley right now, you are certainly not alone. With a white-hot real estate market, many Boise area homeowners are cashing in, and with historically low-interest rates, many are renters are looking to buy. Home prices are hitting record highs, and no.

I can not say enough goodness about this Inspector. I found him through Google as my other Inspector had to leave town. He was thorough. He was quick and his turn around time was amazing. Same day within three hours of the inspection. His recommendations were very thought out ad his professionalism was impressive. I will refer him to other agents.

Would not recommend to my worst enemy. I used this company for my home inspection before purchasing my condo and boy was that a mistake. I found out after closing that not only did Ken miss that an element on my water heater was completely broken and the other element turned way up to compensate (which is dangerous), i found out recently he didn't notify me of the polybutylene piping which was recalled in 1995 for eroding from the inside out. Now i either get to repipe for thousands of dollars or risk the pipes bursting. After speaking with Ken about these issues I received a text threatening to

The inspection missed a huge problem with our home! Roughly 10 months after the inspection and buying our home we discovered a leak in a drainage pipe that caused significant water damage and mold. The leak was caused by a puncture that happened prior to us moving in and should have been discovered in the inspection. We have discovered that our Allstate homeowners insurance does not cover what they call "slow leaks" so now we are stuck with the full brunt of the costs to remove all the mold and replace the wall and flooring. I should also add that we are having to stay elsewhere during this ordeal

I used 5 Star Home Inspections to inspect two properties in 2016. The first inspection found water damage from the roof and prevented me from buying the property. The second inspection gave the house a clean bill of health and gave me a great piece of mind. Both home inspection were thorough, had plenty of pictures, detailed and delivered at an excellent price.
