Doherty Home Inspectors
North Carolina licensed home inspector Rick Doherty performs highly detailed residential inspections all across the Triangle area that go above and beyond NC standards of practice. Inspections last three or more hours and include a web-based interactive report (as well as a pdf version) that contain high resolution photos and videos. Videos showing leaks, unstable support beams and railings, etc. are very powerful negotiation tools and we are one of the few inspectors in the area that offer this service. For the level of experience, service, and professional reporting, our prices are very competitive.
We called on Doherty Home Inspections to do an inspection on a home we put an offer on. They were super professional and pointed out things that we had literally overlooked. He met us out there at the house after he completed his inspection to walk us around to show us what he saw. In addition to that he also provided us with videos and pictures. It was super helpful in explaining to others what was wrong and what needed to be fixed in getting quotes. Being able to meet Mr. Doherty out there was awesome because he really pointed stuff out and what better explanation could you have than from the source!! Save yourself the time, hassle and a bunch of money and call Doherty Home Inspections. His wife will answer and she’s as friendly and polite as they come. She will explain the process and answer any questions you have.
We’re buying a house that is a hundred years old and wanted an in-depth overview of any potential issues. We chose Rick Doherty to do our inspection on the basis of his reviews, which he more than lived up to! We have had quite a few home inspections done over the years but none as thorough or as clear as Rick’s. He arrived at the house and began to work around 8 am and was still there to explain everything when we were ready to leave, close to 4 pm. We didn’t even see him stop to eat!
Firstly, Lori answered me a well-explained inquiry phone call. The inspection is set up just two days after our call. The inspection report is quickly followed with the inspection. The inspection report is very thorough with pictures and easy to study. Rick also gave me a very long phone call to explain the report to me. And I believe Rick answered several phone calls from my agent. Overall, I feel very pleased with my choice with Doherty Home. Highly recommend it.
