Best home inspection. Found lots of items that needed attention and or repaired. Inspector estimated cost of each item to repair which came to about $10,000. This enabled us to renegotiate the sale. More than worth the cost of inspection. Top notch company. Thank you so much.

Dan was courteous and professional. He answered questions, was knowledgeable and experienced. I felt totally at ease reading and comprehending the report and recommendations. Thanks again!
May 15, 2024
Dan, my inspector conducted an inspection of a potential house I was purchasing and he presented me with a 90 page report on every problem and issue in the home. His thoroughness and attention to detail was beyond measure! He also called me to discuss the findings in the report as I am in a different state trying to buy a house without actually walking through it myself. Great company and I will definitely recommend them to everyone I know and I will use them again!
Mar 18, 2024
Great experience! The inspectors were friendly and incredibly knowledgeable. Dan not only discussed the house in depth with me, but also the area and local entertainment as I am moving from out of town. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone!
Mar 18, 2024
Getting this inspection was quick and thorough even with a few glitches from the seller. Dan was great, communicated issues and was clear on his explanation of the issues. Company website is great too, a little humor goes a long way with me. Definitely recommend Advanced Home Inspection if you looking for a good, honest home inspection.
Feb 06, 2024
Dan was thorough and helped me make the right decision for me. I backed out of a contract and he saved me so much money in the long run and then gave another thorough on the home Im currently buying. I could have put myself in a bad spot but Im so grateful that I was able to make educated decisions based on Dans wealth of knowledge.

I definitely recommend Advanced Home Inspection!

We just had Advanced come and do inspections for a home, chimney and garage for us. They were efficient, on time, friendly, thorough and very knowledgeable. They sent two people out to do the inspection. They reviewed preliminary results with us in a way that was easy to understand and we had the report same day! Scheduling was fast and easy and we would definitely recommend Advanced to anyone for their inspection needs.

Would totally work with them again!

Jul 06, 2022
We've worked with Advanced 3 times now, two walkthroughs and one full inspection, and they were great every time. Really nice, friendly inspectors, very thorough easy to understand reports, and great efficiency. I can't recommend them highly enough. The lighting conditions weren't right to see something on the roof one day, so they even popped by the next to double check for us. They were fantastic.
Feb 17, 2022
Great group of individuals. Had them out to two different properties and each time just as thorough and professional. Highly recommended.
Dec 16, 2021
Advanced did a great job for me. Luckily our new home had very few issues, but they were thorough and listed everything for us. They took the time to answer all of our questions and didn't rush us out or make us feel like less of a priority. Awesome job Advanced. Services Sewer line scope, Service not listed
Nov 28, 2021
Ryan was our inspector and he did such an amazingly thorough job, not just in the inspection, but in explaining all the little things and answering all my questions. He was direct and honest and very knowledgeable in general. Worth every single penny!
Nov 12, 2021
Dan is great! He was prompt, respectful, spoke to me like a person, and made it easy for me to understand without making me feel stupid for asking. Personally, I appreciate all of that greatly. We will be using Advanced Home Inspection again and requesting Dan!
Oct 26, 2021
I had the pleasure of working with Dan and Corey from Advanced home inspection. Both guys were very professional, nice and funny. They made me feel very at ease that my 1st home was a good buy. They paid close attention to detail and made great recommendations during my home inspection. With the market being so competitive I'm taking the house "as is" so having this thorough inspection gave me a piece of mind. I highly recommend there service to any homebuyers but especially 1st time homebuyers like myself.
Oct 15, 2021
Bradley and his team were very professional, personable, and knowledgeable. They constantly shared information with us, let us ask the craziest questions all first time homebuyers ask, and explained things we would never even think about. At the end they went over the entire report with us and helped explain it in laymans terms. They were funny, caring, and helpful the entire time. I would recommend this crew every time.
Sep 26, 2021
We were so pleased with the work this company did. They were so accommodating and worked with us on all aspects of the job, from beginning until the end. They go above and beyond in everything they do! Thank you!
Sep 03, 2021
I had a great experience with this company as a first time home buyer! They were prompt and curtious, and really took the time to be as thorough as humanly possible. After the work was done, they sat with us line by line in the report and made sure we understood exactly what was being addressed and the urgency of the issue. After climbing in the attic, the gentleman even took a broom upstairs and swept a tiny bit of insulation up. I would recommend this company without hesitation!
Aug 23, 2021
This was our first dealing with this company and I was super impressed. They were so professional and answered all of my questions. Even went back to check on something that I asked.
Aug 18, 2021
I used AHI for my recent home purchase, and their report have every single found issue, reference photos, estimated cost to repair, items to monitor, and simply information items like the location of the gas line shut off valve. They took time to review the report item-by-item, answer my questions, and were pleasant and easy to work with. I won't be using anyone else in the future. They were simply fantastic. Thank you.
Aug 14, 2021
What can we say? My husband and I were thoroughly impressed, on short notice thankful they came through for us. Ryan was prompt, personable detailed and needless to say proficient. The photos were an added bonus which made referencing a breeze. Thanks guys. We will continue to recommend their services to our family and friends. Keep up the great work James & Charlene

If you're looking at inspecting a historical home in Richmond, look no further than Bradley Gamlin and Advanced Home Inspection. Over the last month, I have used Advanced Home Inspection to inspect two different homes and have been wowed by their thoroughness. Bradley/Chris and Bradley/Chris/Ryan/Corey created two incredibly thorough reports at 44 and 76 pages, respectively, outlining items that need immediate repair, monitoring, maintenance, or just general information as a homeowner. Using synchronized iPads, they were able to divide their work to inspect a 5500 ft in under an hour.
When trying to purchase a home in a market as competitive as the Fan or Museum District, their online booking process and modern inspection toolkit (e.g., iPads, drone, infrared camera) will take some of the stress away from a tight timeline. Given the above description, and Bradley's past as an Urban Planner for the City of Richmond, you might think he's a bit stiff; nothing could be further from the truth.
Him and his team were constantly joking, and made for a fun inspection (don't forget to ask about his favorite structural "column" found during an inspection). He was even willing to talk me through the work he has done on historic homes in the area (including his own), and what he thought those renovations would cost. I can't recommend Advanced Home Inspection enough! Note: if I haven't updated this review, no issues have arisen in the house that weren't covered in the report but should have been.
Sep 13, 2020
Brad and his team are excellent. They found a leak under our new-to-us house that could have easily gone unnoticed by an untrained eye. We are grateful for their knowledge and professionalism. Absolutely recommend!
Sep 05, 2020
On time, detailed, very friendly. Explained everything and gave suggestions. They were recommended to me. passing along the recommendation to others!
Oct 08, 2019
Brad and Chris were thorough, kind, and took time to explain everything to me. When I emailed a question, Brad got right back to me and made sure everything was crystal clear. They were actually fun to converse with during the inspection and made me feel relaxed about making sure the house I am buying is going to be good to go! Thanks guys!
