Accommodating us on Labor Day was enough to be fully satisfied, we decided to buy a house in the middle of our wedding planning, and a family member's wedding this month so we were in short supply of "leaving work early."Curtis started the inspection on his own and told us when to come. He took us room by room, telling us detailed information about the house and things we wouldn't have been aware of without his inspection. He noted things to watch out for in maintenance, like excess moisture in the bathroom ceiling, a leaky dishwasher, and pieces on the roof being plastic. read less

Our inspector was Colby Homer and he was fantastic! Colby was very thorough in looking for anything and everything he could find. He made every effort possible to check even the most cramped of spaces. When we did our walkthrough Colby did a great job at explaining everything he found, how important it is or how soon it should be fixed, and gave us suggestions for said repairs. Whether it be referring us to a specialist (i.e. electrician, plumber) or explaining the simply DIY fix he gave us loads of information. The report we received afterwards was comprehensive and included all information we were given during the walkthrough and then some. I would definitely recommend Marigold Home Inspections to anyone needing home inspection services! read less
