About Hansen Home Inspections - Licensed Home Inspector
My State of Illinois Home Inspector license is 450011545 which is current until 11-30-2026. Thumbtack has discontinued verifying state licensing of Home Inspectors, but I can assure you that my Illinois License is current. I am centrally located in St Charles, IL. Let me know if you have a wood deck or a finished basement. And please give me the age of your home. Homes older that 50 years (built before 1975) take more time to inspect. For an older home, please add $100. When you are making a purchase of a bank owned home, a short sale, or a foreclosure, these inspections cost an additional $200. Inspecting and reporting on a finished basement or a wood deck is an extra charge of approximately $50 each. If you have asked for that pricing in the description of your work including the size of the finished basement and the size of the wood deck, I will send you a follow-up message that will describe the pricing for those items and a new total price. Other inspectors may not have those prices in their quote. Over a period of more than 25 years in the home building industry, I have managed the construction of about 1,000 homes in the Chicago Metro Area and I have more construction management experience than most current Home Builders in the Chicago area. Your inspection report will be unique based on the issues I find during the inspection of your home. I enjoy inspecting Homes and preparing the inspection report for my clients. I want the client to feel that they can ask questions before, during, and after the inspection. Reading the report is just the first step to understanding the home that I inspect for you. My construction management experience includes home owner orientations on more than 400 homes and I would love to share my knowledge with you. If this is a new home being built for you by a large, or small builder, I will discuss with you details that you may want me to inspect from your own unique perspective such as options and custom changes that you have purchased from the builder. Remember that I am working for you, the buyer. Just let me know what your concerns are. The home inspections I perform are not about code compliance, but they cover a number of common issues found in all types of homes, both new and existing homes. I will send you a follow-up message with a sample report. Please look for that message and the attachment. It gives me great pleasure helping my clients understand the home they will be buying or selling. I do not bid on any Radon Tests, Mold Tests, or Wood Destroying Organisms, and my pricing does not include any of those items nor do I inspect for any insects or animals. Each of those items require a separate license in Illinois. If you would like to have a Radon Test, or a Mold Test, or a Wood Destroying Organism test done, please post a separate Thumbtack Request for those specialized inspections. My pricing is average or slightly below average. When you ask for an estimate, please remember that every Home Inspector that you ask to send an estimate must pay Thumbtack to send you that estimate.
Reviews
Very professional and thorough.
John showed up early and started on the outside. Explained everything he was doing and why. Answered all our questions and wrote a very detailed report. I would recommend John to anyone looking for a home inspector.
Very thorough, very knowledgeable a great price and a great personality to match. My favorite part was the fact he wanted to show me what he found so I knew exactly what was in the report. 5 stars all around if I could give 6 I would
I needed an immediate Sunday inspection on a property and John came to the rescue! He spent a full 2 hours and was very thorough. I would definitely recommend him to my friends.
John was great. He explained everything and was very thorough. He allowed plenty of time for questions and knew what he was talking about. I had another inspection with a different inspection and John was a complete breath of fresh air when comparing the two. He was reasonably Priced and was very punctual! If I ever need another inspection, John is the way to go!
He was working as soon as I pulled up and I was only 5 minutes late. He explained everything to me and he showed me problems and solutions. John was friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend him.
John did excellent job on inspection, found many issues I didn't notice and he had high attention to details. Thanks!
John performed a thorough inspection of a 95+ year old brick home. He was on time, professional and explained issues with the property clearly. He was very thorough. He was flexible on scheduling which I appreciated with our busy schedule. His attention to detail in person and in his report allowed for us to move forward in our decision process.
Wonderful inspection... Attention to detail and informative
