Building Inspection Services

I met James Waters from Building Inspection Services (BIS) in February, 2020. He was hired as the independent building inspector for my potential house.

He provided me with a thorough report with details of anomalies of my future property including pictures to support his assessment. In addition, he provided me with an estimate of what it could cost the replacement of the potential repairs and made sure I understood the current state of the house.

I had a great experience James Waters from BIS. I highly recommend his professional services. I am sure you will get a great service at a reasonable cost. Thank you James.

I highly recommend Building Inspection Services for any residential or commercial due diligence and other real estate inspection needs. The initial call was handled by a knowledgeable and courteous representative who recommended the proper level of services needed. The inspector, initials J.W. (dont know if allowed to put his name), was outstanding. Highly qualified. Went through the property in detail. Explained to me what he was doing, what he was looking for and what the results were at each stage (or when they would be available if could not determine on the spot). He knew the Florida building code and local requirements. He was able to find a “needle in the haystack” significant issue that but for him, I would have bought a property with the latent defect which the Seller was unaware of also. In the end, the seller knew what needed to be replaced and fixed because of the report, completed them, and we are again moving forward with the deal. I strongly recommend B.I.S.

James Waters was our inspector. He actually has inspected several of my clients properties. He is a great inspector. I have been in the real estate business for 19 years and owner of Property Advise LLC. James is a top notch inspector. I highly recommend BIS for your commercial or residential inspections.

I called BIS to come inspect the foundations on a home we purchased two years ago. Prior to making this call I had several contractors and handy men come out to the house to inspect and price repairs. Many simply didn’t show up and those that did gave us wildly different responses and prices, from $1000 to $15,000. None of them knew what was truly going on hence our decision to call a structural engineering company. We now know that should have been our first call. Rick, the president, understood our frustrations and worked with us to ease concerns and discuss options. When we finally pulled the trigger on getting them out here, we signed the contract and James was at our home the next morning. James was patient, thorough and clearly has seasoned knowledge in this field. For those interested, it turned out to not be a foundation issue at all thank goodness (was a sub-floor problem). I’m glad I called BIS and I’m grateful for the patience and understanding Rick and James showed us during this stressful process. If your house is keeping you up at night, like mine was, then I suggest you give these guys a call!

Our inspector, Ricky, was thorough and detailed in his inspection. While we could not personally attend the inspection he happily spent time on the phone with us discussing his findings and answering our questions. I would highly recommend his services. The staff at Building Inspection Services were friendly and kept us update along the inspection process.
