If you are buying a house use this service. My husband and I have purchased 6 houses in our real estates careers and were absolutely impressed with Mr. Scott's services. He discusses the report with you, adds color pictures to his report, and even has the report available via Internet for a period of time. He mailed us a copy of the thorough report and made some recommendations to us as the buyer. Very helpful and highly recommended.
They pulled off, via screwing the metal plate, the plate on an electrical car charger causing a loose wire that almost caught my home on fire. They claim it was loose, but it was never loose before the plate was pulled off. They are doing zero to fix the issue. They want proof, but having a correctly installed box for over 2 years with no issues until they opened it was not proof enough.. Horrible company hired incompetent young inspectors without proper training.
Business response:
Hi Stacy, Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We take concerns involving electrical safety seriously and reviewed this matter with our service team and the inspector who performed the inspection. During the inspection, a loose electrical connection associated with the car charging equipment was identified and documented in the inspection report, with a recommendation that the condition be evaluated and repaired by a qualified electrician. Our Client Success team has also spoken with you directly regardin... read more
I requested a sewer inspection, but because I wasn't having the home put on the market, they refuse to perform the service. It's listed as a service on their website. Apparently the $275 they were going to charge for the inspection for the sewer pipe wasn't enough. An inspection is an inspection, isn't it?
Business response:
Valerie, we’re sorry for the frustration. While sewer scopes are a service we offer, they are performed as part of the real estate inspection services we provide and are not intended for general maintenance, diagnosis, or troubleshooting of an existing plumbing issue. Based on the circumstances discussed during your call, a licensed plumber would be the appropriate professional to evaluate the existing clog and provide the type of assessment you were seeking. We understand that this was not the answer you were hoping for, ... read more
I would not recommend Scott Home Inspection for anything. They did not do a thorough job on the inspection. Especially the inspector Mark O'Meara who is not trustworthy and does not own up to what was discussed during the inspection. During my inspection Mark verbally told us that our house had a passive radon mitigation system and that only a fan would be needed to activate the system to reduce the radon levels in the house. When we hired a radon specialist to come to the house to activate the system, there was no radon mi... read more
Business response:
Jennifer, we are sorry to hear that you remain dissatisfied with your experience. However, we do want to clarify some important information regarding the inspection and the findings documented in your report. During the inspection, elevated radon levels were identified, documented in the inspection report, and further evaluation by a qualified radon mitigation specialist was specifically recommended prior to the close of the home. We also reviewed the report following your recent concerns. The inspection documentation does... read more
Our first inspection by Scott's was excellent. Extremely detailed & in depth. That's why we came back. The most recent one was a different story. The inspector seemed to gloss over many things & tried to downplay issues without evidence. We were called prior & told our inspector would take only two hours to finish an inspection that normally takes longer -- I think he glossed over many things as a result. Specifics we found after moving in that a visual inspection should have caught: * An interior door on the second floor... read more
So. The original service was great. Quick, easy, and got good results. However. We finally moved into the house they inspected and there are leaks everywhere that were not noted on inspection. When I looked through it all, the images of where the leaks are show that there really wasn't an inspection, as there was stuff from the previous homeowners covered everything. We will have to replace over $6k of things in order to correct the leaks between bathrooms and the kitchen. Pretty disappointed on that.
We recently did a home inspection on a house that we are considering purchasing. The primary home inspector did his inspection and then quickly went through his checklist. He didn't really seem to be very aware and knowledgeable about much of anything at all and I would never use him again. There was a loose pipe in one of the sinks and I said, "oh, did you try tightening it" and he replied, "no, that's not my job". This is just a poor attitude and this was only one thing. Several things like the roof couldn't be inspec... read more
I have to rescind my initial rating. After being in the house for a year I can no longer recommend this company. I'm now dealing with foundation issues because they missed that my gutters were a complete disaster. Every gutter person who comes by says they are the worst gutter install they have ever seen, water is basically going straight down into the foundation which has in a year caused my exterior and interior walls to crack significantly among other issues. They didn't check the shower pan on my tiled shower so I have... read more
It is 30 days post closing on my house in Gunbarrel. I now have the burden of financing the repair of: 1. Leaking tub drain which damaged the ceiling below requiring drywall repair. The ceiling was wet the day after closing and the inspector did not catch it. 2. Leaking kitchen sink drain that was improperly installed and leaking into the cabinet. 3. Main sewer line back up after sewer scope which found nothing. Fortunately I discovered the back up before it damaged the carpet. This is in addition to a litany of electrica... read more
