TESTIMONIALS

What Our Clients Say

Bennett Home Inspections was recommended to me by my Agent – and I feel fortunate to have even got them for a home inspection within my 10 day timeline. Do yourself a favor and call them as soon as you can in the home buying process. They are busy for a reason and if you are wondering why – just count all the five star reviews. Great experience from begin to end. Website is clean. Scheduling was easy. Geoff and TJ are the definition of professional. Just like a lot of professions, there are levels, and I am here to tell you that even at the Master Inspector level – Geoff is at the top.”
