We Know the Inspection Business!
 

BRUCE SCHAEFER
Bruce Schaefer The inspection on the property was very thorough, informative and professional. From beginning to end, I was encouraged to ask questions and seek clarification on every aspect of the property's construction, mechanical systems and maintenance. I believe I gained valuable information about the property, and I was also encouraged to seek outside sources (contractors/town) for answers to questions which were not immediately available at the property. The inspector was articulate and clear in his explanations and evaluations.

Bruce Schaefer--Excellent. I would recommend him to all my friends

Mr. Bruce Schaefer performed the inspection and I now understand why he came so HIGHLY recommended. My daughter bought a home in Trumbull last summer and Bruce performed the inspection there and she and my son-in-law were very impressed with his work and extremely satisfied. Bruce is a true professional and obviously a master at what he does. If you asked me to rate his thoroughness on a scale from one to ten I'd have to say 100. He made sure I understood each and every aspect of the inspection from start to finish. It was a learning experience for me. I feel more comfortable now about buying this home. After listening to Bruce explain details about electrical, plumbing, roofing, heating systems, etc. I now feel more secure that I can own a home on my own. Thank you, Bruce, for doing such an excellent job.


TOM TUSSING
Tom Tussing, Absolutely wonderful, he knew his stuff and he took the time to really explain things to us. My husband and I are very happy that we picked Schaefer home inspection. I cant say enough, the home inspector was wonderful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is in need of a home inspector.

Tom Tussing...this is a long overdue note of appreciation for your fine service and professionalism.  You completed a very thorough inspection and although the owners of the home were there during our inspection and kept interrupting and "seemingly" trying to have us bypass certain areas (the central air and attic area) you insisted and diligently continued to inspect despite their efforts.  That kind of professionalism and work ethics proved to us you were trustworthy and our minds were at ease about purchasing our home...

We had the pleasure of having Tom Tussing do our home inspection. He promptly arrived at the time of the appointment, and we immediately felt at ease upon meeting him. He was extremely thorough and unbiased, not to mention personable and friendly. Initially, we were nervous and anxious about the inspection as this will be our first home, but he put our minds at ease and we were pleased to have him help us out. We would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a thorough inspection! Kudos to Tom!

My inspector was Tom Tussing. He was prompt, professional and very informative. I am a first time buyer and he really put me at ease. I immediately felt secure with his assessment of my condo. He took the time to explain everything to me and answer all of my questions. I give a big round of applause for Tom Tussing!

Tom Tussing was very professional, thorough, and informative. He carefully checked out everything with me, answered my questions, pointed out areas of concern, and explained what he found and put into the written report.

TOM BEGG
I wanted to take a moment to inform your company of the exceptional service we received from your inspector Thomas K. Begg. My husband Daniel and myself were very impressed with Mr. Begg's patience with our never ending questions and his willingness to stop at any moment to address any of our concerns. As first time home buyers, we are very concerned about making a sound investment. Mr. Begg gave us all the appropriate information to help guide us in our decision concerning our current offer. Although we will be rescinding our offer after we estimated the sum of repairs needed on the home, we very much thank Mr. Begg for making our first attempt at a home inspection as pleasant as it could possibly be.  We know that in the future, we will be requesting Mr. Begg's services in our quest to find our first home.

The Inspection was very thorough and complete. Thomas Begg, our inspector was very thorough and explained everything he saw. He took his time going through the house, and pointed out some things we didn't see. We were very happy with the inspection.

Yes. The inspector was Tom Begg. He was a quite gently personality without the 'ego-maniac' type personality or mentality that is sometimes found in some inspectors. He was instead reassuring with the young man buying the home. Tom was not an alarmist.

Thomas K. Begg-He was fantastic. He answered my questions and explained things to me in a way that I would understand and when I did not he would explain it again in a different way until I got it. He constantly emphasized the fact that I could ask him anything I had questions or concerns about. He also provided information about the life expectancy for certain objects (furnace, water heater, roof, etc) as well as how often maintenance was needed and when it should be provided. I felt very comfortable with his abilty in the inspection process.

My wife and the other agent were impressed with Tom's professional approach...he covered everything. I knew he would as I make note of inspectors who do a top notch for my real estate clients. I asked for him when the inspection was scheduled as my wife and I wanted a quality job.

Anthony was nothing but exceptional. He understood my situation, provided abundant feedback to my inquires, and patiently communicated his vast knowledge during the process. I would highly recommend his services and will request Anthony again in the future.

Tony was extremely thorough, professional, and personable. He also provided several helpful explanations for "How things work" and tips for home maintenance and care. If Tony represents all Schaefer inspectors, then I have no reserve with recommending this company to anyone

Skip was very easy to follow through the inspection & very helpful in understanding things about the house

We had Skip Bligh perform an inspection this morning on a house in Fairfield that we are considering purchasing.  The house is over 230 years old and we were looking for someone with experience and knowledge of antique homes.  We consider ourselves extremely lucky to have chosen Skip as our inspector.  His knowledge and attention to detail were very impressive and he was able to convey his findings to us in an honest, straight forward and uncomplicated manner.  We appreciated his thoroughness and his willingness to answer every little question we had.  His in depth report will help us to make this very important decision.  His services were well worth the price and we will gladly recommend him to others.

THE REPORT

Wow!! I was expecting a sort report. Instead I received a binder with the inspection and a virtual encyclopedia. I find the appendix very useful. I appreciate the post inspection section and the envelopes where I can Store my documents. I have shown the binder to three friends. All were amazed at the information.

It is wonderful, because it is very informative and easy to follow. The other great thing is that you delivery on the spot, this really helped to expedite the purchase of my home. Other inspection companies take their time to prepare their reports. This really helped enable us to close on house in under two weeks.

We think our report is great and that it will be a valuable tool and reference guide for us after we are in our new home. We were also impressed by the fact that we can contact the inspection company for information in the future, including using this web site for information. All in all, we were very pleased.

Very helpful. It gives us a lot of insight into things we would never have thought of. It is also very professional and a mark of a company who takes great pride in the service they perform.

We love that book. It's efficient and useful to the homebuyers especially first time buyers.

The notebook we received with the inspection contains very helpful information, and covers all aspects of the house. We would definitely recommend your services to others.

Better than perfect

Marvin told me years ago that he would not have an on the spot take with the Buyer report until he had it just the way he wanted it-and it is still a well done and well presented book representing the Buyers' purchase.

I was completely satisfied with the report. It was more helpful than I could have imagined. Tom was great at describing everything I needed to know.

The report is clear, complete, and easy to refer to. A very professional job all around. Thank you.

Very good and easy to understand. It will be helpful not only to use during the buying process but it can be used as a reference manual later on.

Very helpful and informative. Nicely organized and user-friendly.

So far I find it very helpful. I think this will be a nice resource to refer to throughout the purchase process. I especially like the ID tags for shut off valves and the annual maintenance schedule.

Excellent. I have seen none better

Very Informative. Put together very well with a lot of helpful sections and tips.


OFFICE STAFF

This is note of thanks and appreciation for your excellent customer service and friendliness.  A few weeks ago I called and inquired about a radon and water test result about our home.  Within minutes you returned my call and explained the details.  You were friendly and courteous while explaining, as well as answering all my questions.  That was like a breath of fresh air in today's society!  You just don't get that kind of service much anymore and I wanted you to know how much I appreciated your kindness.  Thanks and God bless.

The office staff is very friendly and helpful.

Excellent service - I phoned, was advised what was expected, when they would be there, and what I needed to do to move things along. All in a very pleasant, friendly fashion.

The staff member I spoke with over the phone was very pleasant. She answered my questions and left me feeling relaxed about the inspection process. One in which everyone I spoke with back home had me dreading. Thank You.

...I don't want to forget to mention that office staff also did an excellent job in scheduling the appointment.  She was  very patient and professional.
