Report
I chose to go with Presto for a 4-Point inspection because it had good reviews and was the best price I could find...and I called several places. Shawn was great. He showed up a few minutes early and got right to work. He was very professional and very thorough. I'll use him again for future inspections and would definitely recommend him.

Report
Presto Home Inspection was referred to me by my realtor. I was extremely pleased with his work. Shawn is very thorough going over every inch of the home. Best of all, he gets the report to you that same day so you can review and make decisions. He summarizes what he's discovered and explains or suggests what to do. He works hard to get you on his schedule to meet your time frame. We just hired him again to do my parent's home. He is a true professional with an outstanding work ethic.

I recently used Presto Home Inspection based off of reviews I read online and Shawn did not disappoint. He was very responsive and was able to come out the next day to do my home inspection. He did a great job of explaining the results to me and gave me good advise on how to improve my wind mitigation. I highly recommend using him.
