If I've learned one thing in this business, it is to do the job right the first time. I place every effort in using my experience and training to make the most accurate, efficient, and informative reports for our clients. Since LOX Home Inspections, LLC has expanded outside of Glynn County and South Georgia to the CSRA, we have been amazed at the amount of follow up inspections that had to be performed behind more established companies in the area. These companies' clients have contacted us with the competitors inspection report in hand in order for me to decipher and explain the details. In most cases, LOX Home Inspections, LLC has had to visit the customer's proposed new home to perform full home inspections. The new inspection report, in general, are very similar but the difference is in the details. One local inspection company with over 50 years of combined employee experience commented on a 2010 built home that "There is no evidence of the residence being secured to the foundation." Not only during the construction process is a foundation inspection provided by the county to verify the residence would be up to code, but the residence also had a letter from a structural engineer provided prior to the inspection confirming the foundation was structurally sound. Now I will be the first to tell you that I look at every home with the mentality of "Inspect the Unexpected", so when I visit a residence I do so with a questioning attitude. So you can possibly understand my confusion when I entered the crawlspace of this home to not only find the entire foundation perimeter secured properly but the tie bolts to the foundation were also individually marked for ease of confirmation. How could this happen, and how could this be an oversight? The answer is very simple. When I called up my competitor to provide feedback to the series of oversights that have been offered to LOX Home Inspections, LLC by their clients, the inspector informed me that they do not require their inspectors to crawl the crawlspaces nor walk the roof in accordance with their associations' Code of Ethics. And that is why, you as a client need to make the best choice the FIRST time. LOX Home Inspections, LLC has been set apart from other inspection companies since we started in 2011 and we contribute our success to satisfied clients and returning investors that know we look at every residence as if it were our own. LOX Home Inspections, LLC will provide you with a Residential Inspection that you can be confident was completed right the FIRST time.
