Carson Dunlop & Associates Home Inspection

The inspection conducted by Carson Dunlop was very thorough and informative. The consultant took his time to walk me through everything he was looking at, the severity of the issues, and what recommendations he had in order to remedy them, if applicable. It definitely saved me a lot of money at the end of the day and more importantly, gave me peace of mind when purchasing my home.

I have had 2 homes inspected by Carson Dunlop, and both times, they provided very good inspections. Both inspectors shared a lot of knowledge throughout the inspection, and provided very good advice about long-term upkeep and maintenance. The written report could be a bit more descriptive, but the overall service is very good and entirely reliable.

Easy to schedule an appointment. Steven was very thorough. They have a binder (which you get to keep after) which has a very extensive list of everything they nned to check. Steven went above and beyond the suggested inspections and even checked the different grades of the land around the house to ensure proper water drainage.

I contacted Carson Dunlop to provide us with a Home Energy Evaulation for the Energy Retrofit Program. The inspector was knowledgable and took the time to explain everything to us. The detailed report contained all the information required in order to proceed with making our home more energy efficient. Thank you.

I booked an appointment online over the weekend, and had a confirmation call back first thing Monday morning. Mike did the inspection, and was very thorough, and took the time to explain what he was doing and why, and then talked at length about what might make sense to do or not do to the house, based on the initial test results. We planned on improving insulation in the basement walls and attic, but found that the real problem was with air leakage around windows, doors, and receptacles, much of which could be improved with caulking and gaskets for thousands less than the insulation. All in all, I was very impressed with the whole process, and especially with Mike. We would use Carson Dunlop again without hesitation.

Not worth the money for a condo inspection. I went with the "Cadillac" of home inspectors based on my perceived impression that I was going to get more for the price. My first experience with a less well know inspection spent almost 1 1/2 going through our first condo. When we moved to a house we used the same inspector, and it turns out he missed some significant issues. So this time when we were moving back to a condo we decided to go with the "best". As it turned out they spend less time looking at your condo (1/2 to 3/4 minutes) and do anything better than my less experienced inspector before.

My advice is that Carson is way over charging for this service.

Nick did a great job looking over the home and explaining his findings. He was 30 minutes late because something popped up, but Nick took his time and did a thorough job once he got here. Once the technical portion of the evaluation was done, Nick sat down and explained what our priorities should be and how much we can expect to receive from the government. The results were in line with my own gut feelings, fortunately. Nick made some good recommendations (e.g. don't replace the AC until it breaks), which should help me steer clear of expensive and unnecessary upgrades.

I felt comfortable having CD perform the ecoEnergy evaluation because they have nothing else to sell me. Their findings and recommendations should be unbiased. Looking forward to receiving the full report.

We hired Carson Dunlop to do a home inspection for a new home that we bought. It was very easy to get an appointment and although the inspector did the job rather quickly, his report was thorough and detailed.

Moti from Carson-Dunlop came to do an energy audit for our house today. The procedure took about 1.5-2 hours. He explained the findings very clearly and was very patient with my questions. He was courteous. Booking an appt over the phone was also a pleasant experience.
