John from North Bay Inspections was really nice and did a thorough job on our home inspection. We were fortunate because John was very responsive during a busy time
John from North a Bay Inspection was awesome to work with! He walked us through the inspection and home step by step, making the process of purchasing our first home far less terrifying. He really knows the Marin market and we highly recommend him!
NBI was very thorough and provided a comprehensive report of all things needed or identified in the home worthy of follow-up. The gentlemen who performed the inspection took time to explain things to me that would show up in the report.
Very happy with our home inspection! John was very thorough and explained each step of the home inspection process. Highly recommend John for your next home purchase.
Would have liked for him to stick to the quote he gave when he arrived at the house. When he arrived he gave us one quote. Two hours later, he gave a bill with a much higher price. I don't think we will use him again, or recommend him to others. He missed a few things which would have been good to know about.
NBI provided a great report, well organized and detailed with narrative discussions, useful pictures, and "flagged" priority items. NBI delivered their report with a helpful and friendly telephone call to walk us through the entire report and highlight the priority items.
John was willing to explain and answer questions while doing the inspection, which helped us to get to know the home, plus he sent a very thorough and prioritized written report that helped us negotiate a price reduction for needed repairs. Wonderful job!

John did a great job, and answered all my questions. His experience as a general contractor was very helpful, as he knows a lot about a variety of systems. His thorough inspection and detailed report saved me a lot of money on my purchase. I highly recommend him!
John was really great; we learned a lot about our home after his visit. He took his time to look at everything from top to bottom, not rocks were left unturned. He's a very easy going guy and an encyclopedia of knowledge. He's great at explaining thing, I highly recommend working with him.
Incredibly professional, thorough, thoughtful and great at communicating the issues. Didn't create unneeded concern but focused on key things throughout his inspection that helped us identify the right issues to tackle immediately vs. longer-term.
If you read their report and compare their inspection report to other inspectors', you will know how knowledgeable and professional they are. As a buyer I had read at least 5 home inspection reports in disclosure but none of them is comparable to North Bay Inspection's.
John was not only a great property inspector but he also was a great partner in the process. He went out of his way to offer advice and make sure we understood everything in the report. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for the very best in home inspection!
He encouraged us to follow him around while inspecting the home. He was very thorough and even answered follow up questions via email after we closed on the house.
John did a very great job inspecting my house. The report was meticulous and helpful. I would recommend him for anyone in the area needing an inspection.
John was very thorough and professional and provided impartial suggestions and recommendations. Would highly recommend John's services for anyone looking to buy a home, especially an older home.
