I called Don to ask for a home inspection on short notice, he was able to meet within our timeline. Don was thorough, took a lot of pictures and wrote recommendations of items needing attention. The report was lengthy but very thorough and detailed. He was very personable and friendly through the entire process, we were able to ask questions to get an honest answer back. I would use the Inspection Smith again, highly recommend!
Having worked with Don in the past I knew he was the guy to call when it came time to buy a home. His inspection was extremely thorough and didn't have any unnecessary details. He gave me the straight facts and didn't hide anything. I would recommend Don to anyone needing a home inspection.
Donald was wonderful to work with! He was efficient, knowledgeable, thorough and friendly. Buying an old house comes with it's issues, but we were lucky to have an inspector that knew what to look for and how to explain his findings in a way that was easily understood! Donald's quick responsiveness and quality of work, made this part of the home buying process a breeze. 10/10 Would recommend! Thank you Donald!!!
I found Don to be knowledgeable in all aspects of the inspection. Don arrived a few minutes before we did and had already made some key observations. He was very patient with my questions and allowed some questions outside the inspection focus. Don is extremely efficient in that items included in the report I did not notice he had looked at. He was helpful in highlighting areas that may need attention and gave suggestions as to solutions. His phone and electronic communications prior to and post inspection were timely and easy to navigate. It was a pleasure meeting Don and I would highly recommend him for anyone requiring an inspection. D?M., 10/11/22 Laconia
