We verify any applicable state-level licenses, and we require every business to attest that they carry the appropriate local licensing to practice their trade. Please note that HomeAdvisor does not confirm local licensing. Do your own research using online ratings, reviews and through phone interviews before hiring a company.
Some businesses are employees, franchisees, dealers or independent contractors ("Corporate SP's") of larger national or "Corporate Accounts". When this is the case, we may match you with the Corporate Account or with one of their Corporate businesses. The above screening process does not apply to Corporate Accounts, as HomeAdvisor does not screen Corporate Accounts or Corporate businesses. We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them. YP - The Real Yellow PagesSM - helps you find the right local businesses to meet your specific needs. Search results are sorted by a combination of factors to give you a set of choices in response to your search criteria.
Customer Complaints
Needs to review the security of your connection before proceeding. Signature Home Inspection is great, and always does a great job! Detailed reports and very good at explaining any issues with the property. Our inspectors will go over the report with you to highlight our findings, and may recommend some items for further evaluation. As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business.
They gave me encouraging and helpful advice, and he was very patient as I was explaining all the aspects I was concerned about. It really helped to affirm my concerns, and he seemed to be genuinely concerned. It was very thorough and completed quickly, and I appreciated his sense of urgency. We recommend that you be present at the site of the inspection, from start to finish. It’s often helpful to be present so the home inspector can explain in person and answer any questions you may have. These times may vary depending on the size, age and condition of the home.
Overall Rating
We require all users - pros and homeowners - to uphold our core values as outlined in our Code of Conduct. HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional. He is very knowledgeable and explained his findings very clearly. HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
The purpose is to find items that are not performing correctly or items that are unsafe. If a problem or a symptom of a problem is found, the home inspector will include a description of the problem in a written report and may recommend further evaluation. Before you close, you need to consider whether or not repairs are needed now and who’s going to pay for them. This inspection report puts you in a stronger position to negotiate the repairs, and/or the cost of the property.

Our Sunday schedule is limited, so please let our office know immediately if you need a Sunday inspection. Your rating will help other customers make the smart choice when hiring. Find hiring guides, material costs, expert advice, how-to's and more.
The owner or principal of each business in HomeAdvisor's network must pass a background check. Unfortunately, we cannot perform a background check on every employee of a business—the background checks are performed only on the owner or principal. As always, we recommend that you conduct your own research on the businesses you hire, including making inquiries directly with the businesses regarding their employee background check policies.
However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles. We know your schedule is very hectic so we work hard to accommodate you! Our ASHI/AHIT Certified Home Inspectors conduct 3 home inspections a day, one at 9 am and a second one at 1 pm, and the last one at 3 pm.
We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located. For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located. HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license. Our inspector, Dave was very thorough and knowledgeable and took time to explain everything to us.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, several government agencies and courts across the country have temporarily closed their offices. While HomeAdvisor will continue its background check program to the extent possible, these closures could prevent some background checks from being performed. Please be advised that, during this period, if we could not perform a background check, HomeAdvisor will allow the business into the network and match the business to consumers. As affected government agencies and courts begin to re-open, we will resume our program in those jurisdictions.
This allows ample time for us to do the thorough, quality job you expect and get to our next appointment on time. The price of the inspection varies based on the size of the home. Larger homes take longer to inspect, hence the fees for these homes are greater than those for a smaller home. However, don’t let the price of the inspection determine whether or not you get a home inspection or the selection of your home inspector. The knowledge gained from an inspection is well worth the cost, and the lowest priced inspector is not necessarily a bargain. The inspector’s qualifications, including his experience, training, and professional affiliations should be the most important consideration.
