You get so much more than what you pay for when you go with Patrick. From the very first phone call he was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Helping me every step of the way. Going above and beyond the home inspection to make sure my future home is safe and worth the investment. His report was delivered on time and with great detail. And Patrick continued to help me even after the report was delivered. I appreciated his hands on approach and I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone.

Patrick Erb did a home inspection for me today and did a very detailed and thorough job. And most importantly to me is that he was 100% honest and genuine.

Hired Patrick Erb Home Inspection to Inspect our future retirement home on Smith Lake in Houston AL. He is very knowledgeable and spent most of the day at the property. His fee included the outbuildings and boat dock. No major issues, thank goodness, however, there were several maintenance issues that we would not been aware of without his inspection. We were very impressed with how easy the report was to follow - The seller used the summary to make repairs. Very Happy with his service. I don't usually go online to write a review - but in this case - I wanted people to know that this is the Home Inspector to call.

Outstanding! Above and Beyond.



We hired Patrick Erb to inspect our lake home / retirement home.



This was the 5th home purchase since we were married 38 years ago so we thought we knew what to expect with a home inspection.



We Met Patrick at 2pm. He had been onsite since 10 am. He provided a tour and briefing room by room and knew the age and condition of appliances, electrical, plumbing and more.



His report was so easy to understand and included internet links for repair information, owners manuals and more.



We were blown away when he offered to meet a contractor on site to discuss the items in need of repair.... AND did NOT charge for the follow up.



Very Detailed. Great Customer Service!

Patrick Erb Provided Outstanding Service! He was on site for over 5 hours and discovered items that we had no idea could have existed. His report and reference information helped us work with the real estate agent and seller to work out the details, make some repairs and close with confidence that we knew what we were buying. His report and repair information was so easy to understand that the seller was able to make several repairs correctly for a low cost. Patrick even provided a follow up inspection and no extra charge.

Patrick gave us quick service ...

Patrick gave us quick service and explained a lot about the house. It wasnt as perfect as we had hoped, but with the suggestions of ERB we have been able to get the house ready to move in. At first I didnt want to have to pay for a home inspection, but, I knew that there were some parts of the house that needed work.

So I, with the help of the real estate agent (wont mention her) gave me a list of roofers, plumbers and electricians to come and look and estimate repair etc, you know a free estimate. Man, I lived at that house waiting or getting stood up for about 7 days. (You only have 10 days to get inspections). It did not take long to realize that each free estimator person would find lots of things wrong or needed update. 1000s of $.

Funny thing is that each plumber, electrician carpenter all found different things wrong. I was so confused I was going to just back out.

I got a card from the real estate agency (They were on a table up front). I called ERB Patrick. He came out and spent 4 hours testing and looking around. He was really focused and pointed out issues, but showed me how even though some things needed to be fixed or updated, that it was not as urgent and costly as I was told. I was able to get a little more off the offer and all is good now.

I think the best thing was that he does home inspections only and was going to make the same 325.00 whether he found anything or not. Give him a call.
