Reviews
Positive: The inspectors were commended for their professionalism, thoroughness, and attention to detail.
Negative: Some inspectors were criticized for their lack of professionalism and judgment.

Professionalism and Judgment

Some reviewers raised concerns about the professionalism and judgment of certain inspectors from Associated Master Inspectors. Chris Kafka's experience with James was unsettling, as the inspector overstepped his role by offering specific repair recommendations and damaged an HVAC vent during the inspection. Heidi & Jason Effmann's experience with Jim Katen was also negative, as he failed to wear a mask during the inspection despite being informed of the homeowners' request to do so, and then hung up on them when they confronted him about it.

Thoroughness and Attention to Detail

On the other hand, many reviewers praised the thoroughness and attention to detail of their inspectors. Katrina Chan, Joseph Gavrilovich, and Mary Lynn Hamby all had positive experiences with their inspectors, who were professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. The inspectors went above and beyond to explain their findings and provided detailed reports with helpful pictures.

Inspector Performance

The performance of individual inspectors varied greatly. Alex was praised for his professionalism and knowledge, while James and Jim Katen were criticized for their actions. Jay Hensleigh was commended for his professionalism and attention to detail, and Calle Holmgren praised Jim for his wealth of knowledge and responsiveness.
