LodeStar Inspection Services, LLC is great. My wife and I are first time homebuyers and we had an inspection on our hands and LodeStar was recommended to us by our agent. Our inspector, John, was amazing. He was super personable, professional, he even taught us a lot when taking "laps" (to use his term) around the house. We found him funny and knowledgeable. He was quick and thorough. The overall company is on point - they are responsive, quick with results (e.g., our inspection report was written and submitted the same day --almost 2.5 hours after it was done), and we felt that it was a good value. We already said to ourselves that we would have them do our inspection again down the line. They also provide other great services and so home inspection is just one of them.

John went above and Beyond during his inspection and walked me around the entire property and also gave me first time home buyer tips and tricks to ensure I protect my investment. He also had my report to me same day. The entire team is phenomenal!!

I did a walk and talk, pre-inspection walk through with Tucker for a house I ended up purchasing. Tucker was incredibly knowledgeable about every aspect of the house, has an obvious in-depth knowledge of all the utilities and common house issues, and has done his training. The service was top notch. I felt like his priority was to make sure the job was completed in full, and it was not rushed at any point. I would use LodeStar, and Tucker in particular, for any future inspection needs.

As first time homebuyers, we were not sure what to expect going into a home inspection. Kate made us feel very comfortable and relieved that we found a safe and secure home. She spent time explaining things we would not have known to ask, left room for us to ask questions, worked efficiently but not rushed, and was overall respectful and pleasant to work with. She also left us with a “home owner’s manual” that will certainly be useful over the years. Kate also delivered our home inspection report by email less than 12 hours after the inspection. In addition, the receptionist Jennifer was very easy to talk to and she accommodated our schedule change with no issue. It was refreshing to talk to a very kind and professional person on the phone. We are very happy we used LodeStar Inspections and would highly recommend them.

We recently used LodeStar during our home buying process. From the moment we engaged their services, they were quick, professional, courteous and overall awesome. The home buying process can lead to late-night, last minute changes. Jennifer Shipe was there every step of the way to make sure things were done to match our changing status. Beyond that, our inspector, John Kraft, was absolutely exceptional. I have never encountered a more thorough, friendly, or genuinely compassionate individual. He made sure every single question, thought, and concern we had was addressed and went above and beyond to make sure the inspection was everything we could have possibly needed. We cannot recommend John or LodeStar enough!

Tucker was friendly and personable. Very thorough and detailed. This is my sixth house purchase so I have a good sense of how these inspections should go. I only had a few questions and mostly tried to let him do his thing. When I did ask him questions, he stopped, listened and gave a thorough explanation. If you are a first time home buyer, I would ask for Tucker.

Amazing work from the entire team at LodeStar! Superb customer service started with Jennifer who makes scheduling a breeze. She was always so prompt to respond and more than willing to accommodate our requests/questions. Our inspector, John, was knowledgeable and offered great perspective throughout the inspection. He talked to us in terms that we could easily understand and was very candid about his findings. LodeStar made us more knowledgeable about purchasing a home. Although the inspection is over, it is comforting to know that I can still reach out to them for any questions or follow up items I may need. Kuddos to the entire team!

My experience with LodeStar was great! They were able to schedule and conduct my inspection in a matter of days, the inspection itself was extremely thorough, and my report was ready a day later. The inspector, Derick, showed me all the concerns and and explained everything in terms I could understand. He even fielded follow-up questions and phone calls a week after the inspection to help me identify the issues that should be prioritized, which helped me negotiate with the seller. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend/use them in the future.

Tucker was very thorough with his inspection of our new home. He spent plenty of time showing me (as a first time home buyer) where potential problems could arise, as well as where all major gas, water and electric shut offs were in the home.(with labels!) Tucker did a great job applying his practical inspector experience, with his own experiences as a first time homebuyer. The best part is the homeowners manual we were given at the end of the inspection! It has many useful tips on preparing and maintaining your new home. The service provided was excellent and would not hesitate to recommend Tucker or Lodestar.

I was very happy with the inspection done by Tucker. He was very professional and seemed very thorough. He explained things kindly and well to us so we understood some of the items that needed work and other important aspects of the home. He said we could always come back and ask questions if we needed any additional help too which I appreciate. The inspection was more expensive than some other options, but I think in the end it was a better value.

LodeStar came highly recommended to me and I can see why. They are thorough, professional and friendly. They had the report to me when they said they would and the report is the best I have ever seen because it was laid out well, clear and easy to understand. I like how the table of contents and the summary page makes my job easy instead of scrolling through pages to find what I need. Their customer service was on point and everything was handled like I was their only customer.

Lodestar inspections has been my go-to recommended home inspection company since I joined the Real Estate business several years ago and for good reason. The staff treats everyone like family, always quick to answer any questions I or my clients have, they even go the extra mile when it comes to making everyone comfortable during the actual inspection including bringing waters and chairs for us to sit in which is very convenient in vacant properties. I use them for my personal home purchases and the reports never disappoint, not only are they thorough with detail, they include pictures, and everything is worded so that your Real Estate Agent can just copy from the report when requesting repairs for you. The inspector will also walk through everything with you making sure you know your home well not just the major issues they find, they show my clients where the electric panel is, the shut off for the water, the hose bib shut offs, and more. I have never had a client have anything negative to say about their inspection experience when I use Lodestar and I plan on recommending them for the entire time I’m in Real Estate.
