Fortino arrived on time, inspected the floors we were concerned with. He provided very useful information which will be helpful to us when interviewing contractors to do the work. He also provided the written report the very next day.
Prompt, courteous, and was in and out in the agreed time frame. I would use again without hesitation.
Called One Source Home Inspections to complete an inspection and received a prompt response. He arrived on time, completed the inspection, shared his professional opinion of the home, and presented the report (the same day). Excellent service - would call him for future inspections and would recommend!!
Very accommodating and professional! He is very knowledgeable and provided recommendations ~ great value!
Hi I received an inspection report from him! I’ve had my house for less than one year and found out my roof needs repair! The inspection report for not thorough at all and did not add details! He claimed he would come check out the house and never did! DO NOT WORK WITH HIM! You will REGRET IT!!! Regards, Dr. Taylor Mckelphin
great value
I paid One Source $400 to inspect my home. Usually, an inspection takes 2-3 hours. But Fortino was in and out of my house in under an hour. This could have either meant that the house wasn't that difficult to inspect and there were no issues found, or that Fortino wasn't very thorough. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the latter. When I asked Fortino how all of this could have been missed, he told me that it was only a visual inspection and that he wasn't responsible for going into the attic or checking behind a faceplate. As for the smoke alarms, I have to replace all of them in my house because he didn't bother to verify that they were all 14 years old. In the end, it was my fault for going with the random guy that I found on the internet. But I hope that this can save everyone else from doing the same.
Source One did a fantatic job.
BE AWARE when u hire this person, make sure to get a copy of his bond before anything. I had a bad experience working w/ this company service! I hired One Source / Fortino Villalobos to do a home inspection and because of his incompetence and bad assessment I was unable to ask the seller of the property to fix a visual damage that he missed in the bathtub , now I'm stuck whit the problem and now he refuses to take responsibility and he doesn't want to give me his error and omission insurance contact.
