"Matt was quick to respond to our request for an inspection of the home we were considering for purchase. It is an older home and we were concerned there may be issues due to its age.
He got the inspection completed in a timely manner and made it possible for us to put an offer in while feeling confident we weren't going to be caught unawares with expensive repairs.
Matt was also fair-priced and competent. We feel very pleased we chose Northern Home Inspection LLC and feel very confident in recommending them to our family and friends".
"Matt was amazing when we were buying our first home. He was readily available to answer questions, give thorough information, and explain things in a way we clearly understood. Prompt communication & scheduling, excellent knowledge, and again just sure to check every detail. Friendly, trustworthy, and with years of skill development in inspections, his work on our home was invaluable. Highly recommend!"
"I found Matt and Northern Home Inspections to very good at evaluating properties around the area. His use of a drone to supplement his inspection of the property is really a step up. He's able to get views of the location that most other companies aren't capable of doing just yet (this will change in time as other companies put drones into action). I found him to be very honest and hard working. His reports on the homes or buildings are very detailed and well put together. Good company!"
"I worked with Matt in the Oil & Gas Industry for 10+ years and as an inspector he has shown nothing but the utmost honesty and integrity during that time. He has the right attitude and aptitude that you should be looking for in a home inspector. He will not cut corners and will give you an honest and extremely thorough inspection as his personal standards with regards to quality of work are of the highest. Hire him for your next home inspection, you will be thankful you did!"
"Matt is very dedicated to his profession in all aspects. He enjoys his ability to follow through to the end. Very responsible and his personality shines through in every way. I definitely would recommend him to inspect your home."
"Matt with Northern Home Inspections is amazing. I have been a realtor and real estate investor in the area for over 20 years. I have used Matt multiple times now and I am continually impressed with his use of technology (FLIR infrared camera, Drone Pictures & Inspection of hard to reach areas).
He is not afraid to get under the house or above it. He is a great home inspector and has a background of commercial and industrial inspection in the Alaskan Oil Fields".
