Randy was an excellent inspector. He found all critical issues, and explained them, along with their impact and a recommended course forward. The report was delivered that same day, and contained exactly what was already discussed in an easy to consume and use format.
Response from the owner:Hi Dan, Thank you for the great review! We’re glad to hear Randy provided a thorough inspection, clearly explained the findings and their impact, and offered helpful next steps. It’s also great to know the same-day report was easy to follow and matched everything discussed on site. We truly appreciate your feedback! If you ever need further assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always here to help! - The Blue Crab Inspections Team
