Tim did an excellent job. He contacted me before he came. He was friendly and polite. The current owner of the house and my realtor were there and they were also very impressed with the job Tim did. Highly recommend the services.
Response from the owner:Hi Deb, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that Tim took the time to communicate with you ahead of the inspection and that his friendly, professional approach made such a great impression on you, the current owner, and your realtor. That kind of feedback means a lot to us. We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and for the recommendation!

Rob at Blue Crab Inspections Co delivered an exceptional home inspection experience. He was prompt, highly knowledgeable, and impressively thorough in every part of the process. Rob took the time to walk us through each finding with clarity and patience, never rushing and always making sure we fully understood what he was seeing. We asked plenty of off‑the‑cuff questions throughout the inspection, and Rob handled every one with professionalism and genuine care. His expertise and calm, confident approach made the entire experience feel seamless and reassuring. We highly recommend Rob and Blue Crab Inspections Co to anyone seeking a top‑tier inspection. We would absolutely work with them again if the need arises.
Response from the owner:Hi Tanya, Thank you so much for this fantastic review! We're so glad Rob's promptness, knowledge, and thoroughness stood out to you, and that he took the time to walk you through each finding with patience and clarity. It's great to hear he handled all your questions with professionalism and made the whole process feel seamless. We truly appreciate your recommendation and would love the opportunity to work with you again in the future!
