Outstanding Service from Pete – Highly Recommended!

Pete was fantastic from start to finish. Before the inspection, he gave me a really clear breakdown of the details and timeline of his process - it made everything easy to follow and gave me confidence from the get-go. The day before the job, he even got in touch to confirm the address and check that the inspection was still going ahead, which was a nice, professional touch.

Communication was super easy throughout. Pete was friendly, down-to-earth, and quick to reply, which made things simple and stress-free. Our arrangements needed some flexibility as the new build is far from where I currently live but he was really flexible and provided solutions to how we can make it work which made things much easier for me.

On the day, his attention to detail was spot on — he noticed things I’d never have picked up myself. He walked me through his key findings there and then, explaining everything clearly, and just a few hours after he’d finished, I had the full report in my inbox so I was able to update the developer on the same day. It was clear, well laid out, and included his professional take on everything.

If you want someone who’s thorough, reliable, and genuinely easy to work with, Pete’s your guy.

You are in good solid hands with Pete

Pete is highly experienced, meticulous, and professional. From the very first contact, he has been very responsive to my enquiries/ questions. Quick to schedule and available to snag within a short time. Provided his thoughts on the property condition immediately upon completion of snagging and produced a detailed report in ~24 hours. Absolutely confident using him again or referring to others.

If you need a house inspection, call Pete

If you know anyone needing a house inspection Pete is your man 👍
I have worked as an External Quality Auditor over the years and I would never have picked up the range of issues Pete found at our new property. The subsequent report was extensive and provided far more meaningful detail, and cost less, than the Level 2 Survey we had performed at our last purchase.
We got a nice bottle of wine from him as well as a house warming gift 🍷

Worth every penny! 5 stars.

Professional service, fantastic communication. Report provided same day in thorough detail with overview page. Pete has great knowledge and is able to highlight all issues from minor to problematic, things I never would have noticed as a first time buyer. Definitely recommend!

I highly recommend Pete

I highly recommend Pete to anyone seeking a reliable and professional building inspector. From the initial inquiry to the delivery of the final report, he demonstrated a consistently high level of professionalism. He responded to questions promptly, explained technical details clearly, and approached the inspection with thoroughness and precision. His attention to detail and rigorous work ethic were evident throughout the process. The entire experience—from email communication to the completion of the inspection—was seamless. Pete was also approachable and willing to discuss professional insights in a clear and engaging manner. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.

Professional and Detailed Snagging Survey

I had Pete conduct a snagging survey for a new 4-bedroom property, and I was very impressed with the service. He spent over 6 hours on-site, carefully going through every detail.

The report was clear and comprehensive, not only identifying defects but also raising valid points about the quality and execution of certain installations – such as the positioning of facilities. It was reassuring to have someone so knowledgeable and confident in highlighting things that might otherwise be overlooked.

The summary to the developer was also handled professionally and clearly. All in all, a very solid experience – I’d happily recommend.

Fantastic Service!

Pete was amazing! He was very friendly throughout the inspection and paid attention to every last detail. When we had issues sending the report to our developer he managed to change the file type so we could easily email it to them.

When I enquired about organising the inspection the response was very quick and promptly booked in. The communication post inspection to make sure the handover to the developer went well, was so supportive!

Professional snagging services

We used House Inspector Ltd for a snagging survey on our new-build house. The surveyor arrived on time, was professional, and clearly knew what to look for. The final report was detailed, with annotated photos and a clear priority system. It helped us get many issues resolved. Pete does a wonderful job and we took his snagging service twice so far

Reassuring to get everything checked

Pete was thorough in his inspection and provided an emailed list with photo & description of each item raised. He found lots of things we had not spotted.

Excellent snagging service - Big thanks to Pete at The House Inspector!

I highly recommend Pete (from The House Inspector) for a thorough and professional snagging inspection. He was incredibly helpful from the start, flexible with scheduling and his inspection was meticulous, covering both exterior and interior with detailed photos and a clear report.

Pete was also very responsive when I had trouble downloading the report. What impressed me most was his willingness to offer further advice even after the snagging, demonstrating his commitment to excellent service.

Thanks to Pete's expertise, I feel much more confident moving forward. For anyone reading this, this was a great experience and fantastic service. I highly recommend The House Inspector - you will never be disappointed.
