Inspection and assessment services

Guarantee and commitment to the client

The company offers a guarantee that, according to its presentation, includes a refund of the inspection fee and payment for another licensed inspector of the client's choice to inspect the same home if the client is not completely satisfied at the end of the service. The firm describes this guarantee as a 200% backing of its work.

The company also states that it maintains phone communication for questions before and after the inspection, and that it seeks to explain the process from the start and at every stage so that the client knows what to expect.
