Hi,
I received a customer complaint from the ********************. I provided an inspection for this client on 12/21/2021. The customer had reached out to me several months after regarding several of the concerns. I immediately returned do go over such items. Many of the items were not an issue or were covered completely in the report with photographs.
I took many photographs of the property of "assumed" issues. This complaint was properly handled on our behalf and they were given options if they believed there was an improper inspection, to include the proper process. She was given, and signed, our inspection agreement and this is directly attached to the report given.
I will not be discussing this with her through the BBB response portal as many of the accusations are false and I have photos from the inspection, report, and follow up visit to prove this.
A few exapmles:
"March 4 electrical outlet not working" - It was a GFCI outlet that needed to be reset.
"Basement flooding"- I took many photos of the basement post inspection, no idication of leak and owner could not prove any such water or documentation of clean up.
"April 1st toilet leak" - Toilet was flushed 3 times in follow up, never leaked and no indication of leak. (photos taken)
"Outlet by table not working"- Follow up visit confirmed the outlet is switched, meaning it works by turning on a switch and I showed them how. Common in many older homes.
"Standing water in garage" - Language with photos in the report state "Cracking and settling observed on the slab, this may caused pooling water or similar and future repairs may be needed", "garage floor elevation at the overhead door is lower than the driveway. This may cause water to leak into the garage"
I could continue and as stated this was addressed with the client. I will be available Monday after 11:30 am if you would like to give me a call to discuss.
Thank You,
