Amerispec

DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY!!!
I made the mistake of using a coupon from my realtor for Amerispec, and have regretted it since. In fact, I would not have bought my house if I would have had a competent inspector come in and actually find the plethora of things wrong with my house.
The following scenario should provide you with all you need to know about Amerispec — The VERY FIRST DAY I moved into my brand new home, I had a major gas leak that my «inspector» apparently missed. Therefore, the gas company came out and red-​tagged my house, leaving me without heat… in Minneosota… in October.
Again, this was about 30 minutes after I brought the last box inside, and about 12 hours before my father, who smokes cigarettes… in the basement… was to show up and see my new house.
As soon as the gas company showed up, the tech’s device was beeping before he could get within 20 feet of the furnace. The entire propane tree on the furnace was «hand tight,» and the bolt from the water heater connection fall off in his hand when he touched it! He told me that anyone who’s even seen a furnace before should have caught this.
Again, this is THE FIRST DAY I MOVED IN!!!
Since that day, there have been DOZENS of issues that I’ve had to have my builder come over and try to fix. So here I am, almost 8 months later, and I’m still having issues with almost everything. In fact I have city inspectors and the builder coming over tomorrow to look at some of the ongoing problems I’m having, NONE of which the inspector noticed.
Save yourself a few hundred thousand dollars, and spend the extra $ 200 up front and hire a competent inspector. Now, I’m going to end this review before I hurl my laptop out the window, which is probably made of breakaway glass that the inspector missed.
