Testimonials

What Our Customers Says

Professionalism with a caring, personal touch. Brad made my home inspection experience the best ever. I live out of state and needed someone to help me understand issues with my elderly mother's home and the required remediations to ensure she is in a safe and healthy living environment. Not only was he prompt, courteous and handled my mother with care, he provided me with the necessary feedback so I can improve her standard of living. I tip my hat to him as I can't thank him enough. AI is the way to go! I HIGHLY recommend them.

Brendan Watson

Brad Harwell was called on the suggestion of our daughter. Brad was so friendly , knowledgeable and explained what he could for us and told us that he would be able to come and survey a possible future home. He was a couple of hours from us and he made the trip. He surveyed the home in about 5 hours and did the termite, air quality, sewer, and two others inspections. His work was thorough and informative. He took video, and data and explained the home site, the grounds around the home after he was done.He sent us a formal report when he was finished. We look forward to using him on the next future home.

Teresa Larsen

Brad really knows his stuff and had a positive and willing attitude to teach and inform in regards to his inspection. He is very thorough in his report and has great prices for the different inspection services and subsequent inspection warranties. Brad was easy to work with, and I will be recommending him for inspections to my friends in the future.

Reid Thackerson

Gail Pelt

EAHI has a large range of testing services satisfying most if not all of your property inspection needs that come with warranty periods for peace of mind. Brad from AI is certified, knowledgeable and thorough. I would definitely recommend AI to anyone who wants or needs to have a deep understanding of their properties long term maintenance issues or current deficiencies. What’s on offer is a great service for those needing a pre purchase or end of warranty period home inspection. AI is especially good at the after inspection service where they spend the time to explain the report. Should it be required AI can also put you in touch with local construction/property specialists taking the guess work out. Thanks Brad, awesome job!
