Customer's reviews

Steve was very friendly and professional. He explained what he was going to be doing and gave me the option to follow him around and ask questions as he conducted his inspection. I felt very comfortable and confident that Steve gave the house the thorough inspection it needs for new home owners to feel good about their purchase. At the end of the inspection, Steve went over all major aspects of the inspection and addressed things as small as a loose nail on the deck. He seemed very knowledgeable in his field and answered all questions I had for him. The inspection report he sent immediately was very complete and very easy to read and follow. I would highly recommend Steve and Bulldog inspection services to anyone who wants piece of mind with their purchase. Thanks Steve ~ Paul R
This was actually my second attempt at a home inspection with Bulldog-- the first time was on a house where the deal fell through due to contractual issues, and Steve wisely suggested I hold off on the inspection until I was able to come to an agreement with the seller. This time (different house), he was extremely thorough and walked through what he found in layman's terms so that I could understand. He left no stone unturned-- he ran a brand new dishwasher through a full cycle to make sure it was operational, checked the chimney structure of a non-functioning fireplace and even noted minor repairs and improvements that I might want to make in the future. As a first-time homebuyer, I couldn't be happier with the level of professionalism, friendliness or attention to detail. THANK YOU! ~ Maggie H
I had a good experience with Bulldog Inspection Services. Steve was very friendly and easy to talk to, and he put things in accessible and understandable terms. His inspection was very thorough and professional, and the full in-depth report was ready for me to review later that night. The report made his observations very clear, and he included images of almost everything he noted. I also appreciated the online booklets Steve sent after the inspection, which gave estimated costs for common renovations or repairs, and estimated lifespans of many building materials. Those PDFs have been very helpful to reference as I think about future renovations or concessions. I would definitely recommend Bulldog Inspection Services to my friends or family. ~ Shelby H

Do you check for mold?
Yes. We will always check for mold and the conditions that lead to mold growth. How will we do it? 1. Visual Inspection: We look for visible signs of mold growth. Especially in the dark corners around the home. This includes discoloration or staining on surfaces, as well as any signs of growth on walls, ceilings, and floors. 2. Moisture Detection: If there is moisture, there's an excellent chance mold is present. We use a moisture meter to identify areas where water is penetrating the area. Then we will look around these areas to find where the moisture is coming from. 3. Muggy or damp conditions: If a home is vacant, closed up, and the thermostat is set too high in the summer, moisture levels will rise and mold will grow. Most mold grows when the 60% moisture content reaches (a hygrometer will tell you), but some mold will grow with at little as 20%. The higher the moisture level the faster it grows. To keep mold away, keep the moisture level less than 55%.
