What Clients Say About Our Home Inspections
What truly set Gerald apart was his dedication to educating me as a homeowner. Throughout the inspection, he took the time to walk me through what he was seeing and teach me how to assess and research the conditions of my home myself. That kind of investment in the customer goes well beyond what I expected.
The inspection report was delivered the same day — an impressive turnaround — and it was exceptionally detailed, with numerous photographs that clearly illustrated every finding. No guesswork, no vague language; just a well-documented, easy-to-follow report.
Gerald didn't stop there. After delivering the report, he personally contacted me to ensure I fully appreciated the more significant findings and answered any questions I had. Then, a couple of days later, he followed up again to make sure I hadn't come across any new questions after having time to review everything more carefully. That level of post-inspection support is genuinely rare.
My family is extremely grateful for Gerald's support throughout this process. Choosing a Master Inspector was absolutely the right call, and Gerald exemplified everything that title should represent. Highly recommend — without reservation.
He was extremely thorough and detail-oriented, carefully inspecting every aspect of the home. He explained each step of the process clearly and made sure we understood what he was looking at and why it mattered. After the inspection, he personally called to walk us through the report in depth and answered all of our questions without rushing us.
His communication, professionalism, and attention to detail gave us real peace of mind during a major purchase. If you need someone you can trust — especially for a new construction inspection or if you’re buying from out of state — Gerald Herrmann is absolutely the one to call. Highly recommend!
