Rob M inspected my soon to be home today in North Beach and the day ended with me being extremely satisfied and believing that I chose a good house. Rob took his time and was not shy about pointing out issues and the categories in which they fell in terms of safety and urgency, yes it could use some work, it's up to you kind of things. He put it in language that I understood and appreciated. The man knows his stuff and that gave me a feeling of confidence. I highly recommend, Blue Crab assuming that Rob is typical if all of their inspectors.

WOW! Charles and Luke were SO knowledgeable and saw things I would have NEVER noticed during my home inspection. They gave me confidence to own my own home by explaining everything from water shut offs to roof flashing. I had no idea what flashing was but Charles and Luke were so patient, kind, and EXTREMELY THOROUGH! I can thank you both enough for your time, attention, and knowledge. I HIGHLY recommend Blue Crab Inspection for their customer service and positive communication (even when we were talking about water damage or the company was sending emails.) I also loved the full color report with pictures. It made it so easy to ask questions and make decisions about next steps. Thank you Luke and Charles!
