They are very professional and very thorough. There wasn’t a stone left unturned when he inspected the home we are interested in buying. He took great photos and sent a thorough reportof all the things that needed to be fixed. And even reached out a couple days later to see if we had any questions about the report.

Very detailed inspection. When Jeremy was done he allowed me to call him and discuss the inspection, going over the high and low points. Definitely will use him again on my next home inspection.

Jeremy was amazing to work with. Super thorough and did a good job walking me through everything after the inspection. I also had to bring my two littles with me and he happily played catch with my toddler for a few minutes, which made his day. Cannot recommend him enough.

Mr. Heffner was really, really nice and he was thorough. We felt like we were talking to a friend. His written inspection report was informative, but he gave us a quick verbal summary before we left the property. It was a pleasure to work with him. We appreciate the fact that he is a veteran as well, which came up because we were with him on Veteran's Day.

Jeremy is amazing. My husband and I have used his inspection service several times this year when acquiring property. He’s punctual and His inspection is very thorough. He explains everything in detail and for the lay person like myself, explains whether his finding is something I will need to address soon or if it’s something minor. We highly recommend using Jeremy for your inspection needs. You won’t be disappointed. He’s very good at what he does.

Jeremy did an absolutely fantastic job inspecting the home we are wanting to purchase. He thoroughly inspected every area of the home and took his time to make sure even the smallest areas checked out. After he completed his inspection, took 45 minutes speaking with my husband and I. He sent us and the realtor a detailed inspection report of his findings within 24 hours of his inspection. Being in the construction field, I deal with inspectors often and Jeremy is definitely the best I have ever dealt with.

Heffner Home Inspections is great! This is the 5th home that Ive been a part of purchasing in 48 years! This was the best, most thorough home inspection I’ve ever had. We were not able to be there during the inspection, but our realtor was and after the inspection, Jeremy called. Explained all that he had gone over, emailed us a full inspection report, as well as a summary of what he thought was the most highlighted items to be considered of being an Issue or not. He Answered any and all the questions that we had regarding the inspection! His inspection has helped us toward our big decision! Thank you for performing an honest, detailed inspection!

Jeremy is thorough, professional and timely. We have had the opportunity to recommend him to the family purchasing our previous home and for the inspection of our newly constructed home. It really is necessary to have new construction inspected because builders sure miss quite a bit. Jeremy found several items that we missed and needed repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Our FAQ provides clear and concise answers to ensure you have all the information needed for a confident and informed decision about your property.

A home inspection is a thorough check of a property’s major systems and components. It doesn’t tell you whether to buy the house or not — it gives you a clear picture of the home’s condition so you can make an informed decision.

Buying a home is a huge investment. An inspection helps you know what’s working, what needs attention, and what might become an expense down the road. It gives you confidence before you make one of the biggest decisions of your life.

A home inspection covers all major systems, including the foundation, roof, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and other critical components. It also includes checking for issues that could cause problems in the future, like water intrusion or potential safety hazards.

The cost can vary depending on the size and age of the home, but a typical inspection is a fraction of the price of the home itself — and it can save thousands by uncovering issues early.

 

It’s all about knowledge and peace of mind. You’ll understand the true condition of the home, which can help with budgeting for repairs, negotiating with the seller, and avoiding unexpected problems later.

No — every home can benefit from an inspection, whether it’s brand new or decades old. Even new homes can have issues, and inspections help protect your investment.

Most inspections take a few hours, depending on the size and condition of the home. Jeremy takes the time to look carefully at all major systems, so clients get a thorough report.

Reports vary depending on the home, but they’re detailed enough to give a complete picture of the property. Expect clear notes, photos, and explanations of any issues or areas to monitor.
