What clients say

Barry was recommended to me by my realtor and best friend, and I'm glad I listened to him. Barry was on time and provided me a very thorough and comprehensive review of my home inspection. I felt comfortable and at ease asking him questions and getting his feedback on the issues that were noted. Barry was very friendly and patient throughout the whole process, and provided me with a very detailed and professional report. I would highly recommend O'Briens home. Inspections if you want professional and friendly service. Great job Barry! Thank you very much.

Barry, I’m totally satisfied with your home inspection. You had looked at the very little things that the Seller could have overlooked or neglected but you totally got it addressed right & sensibly. Your service is excellent & you explained to me everything that is very easily understandable & I am willing to recommend your company to anyone needing a home inspection. Thank you.
