Hawkeye Home Inspection is Kurt Fleming's one-person operation, based in Marblehead and working residential, commercial, and environmental-testing jobs across Greater Boston, Eastern/Central Massachusetts, and New Hampshire, according to its own site. The company describes itself as now in its 22nd year of business. Its written record on Google is short — six reviews between 2021 and 2023 — but each one describes a specific reason to call: in a 2023 review, a homeowner pointed to Kurt's background in general contracting and hands-on carpentry as an edge in reading a house. In a 2022 review, one client said Kurt came out for a radon test outside normal business hours to fit their schedule and had results back the same day. Another, from 2021, described an architect hiring Hawkeye for a visual inspection plus mold and radon testing ahead of a renovation. A 2022 Marblehead homeowner said Kurt stayed responsive to follow-up questions well after the inspection itself was done. Kurt Fleming's Massachusetts home inspector license is active and registry-verified. Hawkeye fits buyers who want more than a checklist — someone who can speak to construction as well as inspect for it, and who covers radon and mold testing alongside the standard walkthrough. With a written record this thin, it's worth asking directly about recent availability and turnaround before booking.
I recently had the pleasure of working with Kurt Fleming from Hawkeye Home Inspections, and I couldn't be more impressed with his expertise. With a background in general contracting and hands-on carpentry skills, Kurt brings a wealth of knowledge to the inspection process. Even if you're waiving the inspection for the purchase of your house, I highly recommend reaching out to Kurt. He can help you plan for future repairs, particularly when it comes to indoor air quality and potential hazardous materials. Kurt's commitment to ensuring the safety of your family is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend his services for anyone in need of a thorough and knowledgeable home inspection.
Kurt is a very thorough home inspector. If you want to save money on your home purchase, he is your guy!
Kurt inspected our new home in Marblehead in Apr 2020. He was prompt, thorough, and to this day, very responsive to my (many) questions! He continues to help well beyond the inspection, and I could not be more happy with his services. Thanks Kurt!
Kurt came out to test our house for Radon levels and even came outside of normal business hours to fit us in his schedule. As soon as the test was done we had our results immediately. Within hours, he followed up on simplifying everything down to terms I could understand and what needed to be done next. I would highly recommend Kurt and Hawkeye Home Inspection!
I highly recommend Kurt Fleming at Hawkeye Home Inspection because he is up to date with the most efficient inspection software and is most thorough. Kurt is highly professional as well as personable and easy to work with. He has very high ethical standards and one can trust in his inspection of your residence or commercial property.
