I called Brent after reading the reviews on HomeStars for a 2nd inspection on a couple items on a home I just purchased. I had a full home inspection done prior to putting down an ofer. When I took possession I noticed a point in the master bedroom that was sagging a bit. This area was covered by a bed and so was not noticed in the original home inspection. Having just seen a Mike Holmes show about the perils of inadequate structural support, I wanted to get that area looked at ASAP. I called Brent and he came the same night, looked at the area, measured the supporting beam underneath, and provided a clear assessment of the situation. He explained to me the things to look for that would indicate structural issues. I also had him look at the hot water tank and a patch in the basement that had some previous water daamge. All in all Brent was able to talk me through the issues to consider in these areas and provided a valuable 2nd opinion. THANK YOU BRENT!!! Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Thank you so much for the review Sharon !!! Ohhhhh Sharon ... been watching big Mike have you! I love the fact that he is very sucessful and he deserves every bit of it, I'm just not a fan of the show. Not everything needs to be repaired with a bulldozer or a wreaking ball. However, he does educate people, and I will certainly give him that. In your case, yes, I could see how it could be a concern, but nope, no problems. Many older (and even brand new) homes have wonky floors. It would have been nice if your first home inspector had told you that, but nonetheless, you know now. It was great meeting with you Sharon and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!!!
