AABC Humane Wildlife Control & Landmark Pest MgtABC Wildlife was wonderful! They removed the skunks from under our porch and gave us a permanent solution to keep this from happening again. ABC was professional and provided great service through the whole process, from start to finish. If we have any pests in the future, ABC will be our first and only call!- Katie S.

ALiRosi Home Inspection ServicesIf you are looking for a home inspection done in Chicago or suburbs, Vito is the person! He did a such an amazing job on our report that I was bit surprised. We flip homes and we have used other home inspectors but no one was as detailed and good as Vito. From now on we will be using him on all of our flips to get the inspection report. Without his report I would have never known that the chimney is in poor condition. Thanks Vito for all your help, you helped me get addition discount on the purchase price!- Peter K.

AIndy Inspection Service IncRich agreed to meet us on a Sunday to do the inspection while we also did our own review and preparation for a new home orientation the next day. He was very detailed and thorough in his inspection and took extra time to explain many things we didn't know about the house which was very valuable. He also provided us with documentation and a homebinder application we could use in the future to document items in the home and be reminded of future maintenance requirements. He also provided us with a report very quickly so that we could forward the information to the builder prior to our new home orientation. We are very pleased. He also had previously provided a foundation and pre-dry wall inspection and the cost of service includes those additional two service costs- George T.

AInspection ConnectionMike did two inspections for my (now) wife and I. He was extremely thorough, honest, and happy to answer any questions. The inspection probably took around 4-5 hours which is what you want in a quality home inspection and he definitely knew his stuff. Mike actually ended up saving us around $1500 which paid for the inspection + saved me money. Trust me, do yourself a favor and do not cheap out on your home inspector and go with a professional who knows his stuff and who you will learn from like Mike!- Ryan H.

ANew Edge Improvement CoWe typically don’t do reviews but in the case of New Edge Improvement, we wanted to let people know how pleased we were with their service and work. The need started with noticing some water marks in our upstairs ceiling following a hail storm in the area. We saw their sign posted in a neighbor’s yard and thought we would give them a try. They came to our house, conducted a preliminary inspection, explained the process to us and, with our permission, acted on our behalf to work with our insurance carrier (a major, well-known name). The entire process was reputable and professionally handled. Upon further inspection, additional damage was noted. The carrier was initially reluctant to include certain items in our claim but, as promised, They fought on our behalf and worked with them to re-assess and ensure we received all that were legitimately entitled to. At no point did we feel we were taking advantage of our insurance carrier and; we are certain that with their knowledge, negotiating abilities and expertise, they were able to have more covered in the claim than if we had handled it on our own. As for the quality of the work, it was top-notch (and we are very particular). The crews were courteous and professional as well. With a new roof, new downspouts, new screens a painted fence and a new garage door, we couldn’t be happier. If remodeling/renovations are in our future, they are at the top of our list. We strongly recommend New Edge Improvement.- Chris M.

AStu's Absolute Inspections, Inc.Phenomenal. I needed someone last minute and Stu was able to get there for me. He was incredible thorough, explained details in a way that I could understand, was professional and patient with all my questions, and I can honestly say he loves what he does. His attention to detail was astounding and I could not recommend him more.- Madilynn D.

AWe were bit skeptical about the value being provided by an home inspection before a home purchase! We were wrong! Its worth every dollar spent. Thomas from Acuity Home inspection did a thourough job on the inspection. He brought up many issues some minor, some serious to our attention which we would not have figured out by ourselves.

AMy wife and I were really happy that we went with BRT for both our home inspection and the radon test. Dave handled our inspection, and was incredibly thorough. He got there early, and covered the whole whole house (including physically going up on the roof). He took tons of pictures for the report and explained what his concerns were as we went through. He also noted things that he couldn't call out in the report, but suggested we may want to address on our own. We were nervous going in with the house as there were visible cracks in the basement, but ended up purchasing after considering Dave's expert advice on the severity of the issues on his assumptions on repair costs. Additionally, the contractors we called ended up quoting their repair prices right around the same amount Dave suggested it would cost. Dave was super nice and extremely professional the whole time, he even went back a week after our initial inspection to recheck some electrical issues he called out that the sellers had fixed on their own. It was also convenient having the radon test done by the same company. And the test helped us identify high levels of radon in the house. We ended up purchasing a mitigation system, which has greatly reduce the radon level in the house. Adding the radon test increased the overall fee by $200 ($200 for Radon, $400 for inspection). For those on the fence about getting a radon test, I'd recommend it, as it's worth the price. All in all, were extremely satisfied with the value we got for the money, and will be recommending BRT to any friends and family that are purchasing a house in the future. It will also be the first place we call next time we move.

AScheduled for 10am, called to say running late due to traffic - no biggie at all. Very thorough, very professional, pointed out a couple of fairly urgent needed items. Presented us with a 75 page report with photos & video from the crawl space, along with recommendations for overall home maintenance. Very nice guys. Had COVID19 protocols that included sanitizing equipment before and after use - very nice to see that added touch and care.

AI am very impressed with Home Inspection Geeks. They have all the geeky tools to make their inspection as thorough as possible and the report very educational, while offering excellent personalized service, advice and guidance. The video integrated report is great for someone not able to attend the inspection in person. They do not rush through the inspection but rather take the time to explain potential issues.

Recent Review:
FWe had Mr. Yilmaz provide an estimate for drywalling our 250 sq. ft. basement ceiling last week in which he verbally indicated it would be $712, plus the cost of renting a truck for an hour to grab all of the drywall. He indicated he’d be sending a written estimate in the next couple of days; however, we never received one. My husband called and texted him at least 3 times over the weekend inquiring on the written estimate, but received no response. Mr. Yilmaz finally responded to my husband on Monday (8/28) indicating that he was sorry for not responding and that it was a “bad weekend”. He then proceeded to state that he “incorrectly quoted” the job as it represented regular drywalling and not drywalling a ceiling. He sent a new estimate Monday night displaying a total of $1,188.75. In just a matter of days, our drywall estimate suddenly increased by $476.75; almost $500 dollars?! This man is CLEARLY a scammer and extremely unprofessional in how he handles his business. I would absolutely NOT recommend Sabri Yilmaz and his company unless you’re looking for a headache and to be given the run-around in pricing.

FThis company came to my house to install a radon mitigation system. A few days later my basement was flooded with 6 inches of water and they denied responsibility. This house was never flooded in the past 10 years and previous owner also claimed that it never flooded for them. I don't know what they did to my sump pump but they definitely touched/moved/did something to it. They stopped answering our calls. They don't even send anyone out to check on their work to see what happened. Insurance sent a plumber out to check and he found nothing wrong with the pipes nor any cracks in the basement and sump pump still works so they don't cover much. The total damage is $10710. Furnace broke, spent $850 to fix it. Washer broke that cannot be fixed, spent $900 for a replacement. Carpet and pad were soaked, spent $1500 for the replacement. Wood panels damaged cost $1000 to replace. Mold clean up and prevention- $6300. Water heater broke but my husband managed to fix it himself. Don't know what they did to my sump pump but when we lift it up to check, the pipe came right off at the base. New sump pump and pipe replacement- $160. On top of that, my husband and I spent two weekends to clear out the water, wet vacuum the carpet, pull carpet and pad out, clean the floors and walls. We were just one week to close on the house and missed it because of all these repairs. Not even an apologize or any offer from them to make it up to us. If they were not totally responsible for it, they should be partially responsible. We might take this further than writing reviews if needed.
