My experience with HomeGuard was deeply disappointing and frustrating. We bought a home for which they had completed inspection and we got them to work on fixing the issues. Big mistake! They contract the work out to BAD contractors and …

We used Homeguard for an inspection prior to listing our home. 1. Their proposed cost of repairs is 10x the cost of a contractor or handyman. 2. They were flat-out wrong in some cases. They said the dishwasher wasn't …

The representative I encountered operated his vehicle like a complete lunatic. No concern for the safety of those around them, no courtesy to extend. No integrity on the road = no integrity in business. Not the kind of people I'd want anywhere near my home.

It's unfortunate that your interactions with businesses consistently result in one-star reviews.

Hello Brian, We appreciate you sharing your feedback regarding your recent experience with HomeGuard's termite and home inspection services. We understand the importance of thorough inspections, and we regret any inconvenience caused by our inability to complete the inspection to your satisfaction. As a professional inspection company, the safety and well-being of our inspectors are our top priorities. Upon our initial visit on 3/19/2024, our inspectors found the conditions within the home and crawlspace to be egregiously unsanitary and unsafe for inspection purposes. Consequently, we were unable to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the property's interior and subarea. Following your subsequent scheduling of a further inspection on 3/27/2024, we commend your efforts in attempting to address the cleanliness concerns within the property. However, upon arrival, our inspectors determined that the conditions remained unsafe for our team to enter and carry out a thorough examination. This decision was made following our strict safety protocols and with the well-being of our staff in mind. A third further inspection was scheduled on 4/5/2024. Despite our best efforts, we could not proceed with the inspection due to the ongoing health risks posed by the property's conditions. In total, we sent six different inspectors to the property – none of them could complete the inspections due to the property's conditions. We remain dedicated to assisting you in any way possible and exploring alternative solutions to address your inspection needs.

Do not waste your money! They came to my home just to take pictures of all places that they couldn't access regardless of me making clear that I can help with anything they need. These people don't talk, don't ask, just walk around for 30 minutes to make their easy money. They lied when I asked their manager DAVE LOVELACE to explain why they didn't do what I paid for. Company president JAMES STEFFENSON and CEO JAMES HESSLING ignore my emails. I'm assuming it's not convenient to hear the truth about your company James & James.
