Kind Words From My Happy Clients
- We used KC Bartley on numerous occasions and I have to say that he is professional and thorough. When you are investing hundreds of thousands of dollars on a house you really need to do your due diligence. Uncovering issues such as mold, structural damage and foundation problems cant be stressed enough. He even pointed out that the bathrooms in one house had s-traps instead of p-traps. They looked brand new, but the s-traps could actually let sewer/septic gases into your home. The deck on same house was not attached properly. I also don't want respiratory issues when there is mold brewing in the walls or floors. Do yourself a favor and protect your family and your future home before you buy and call KC. You will be relieved you did. Plus, he is a super nice guy and great to work with! Thanks again KC.read moreread less

We were buying a property site unseen, and KC knocked it out of the park. As a home inspector myself, I aspire to provide the level of service he does. Do yourself a favor and hire him no matter what!! We made sure to put extra days in our contract so that we could get on his schedule. 5 Stars, HIGHLY RECOMMENDread moreread less Joseph Varnell7/16/2024I’ve worked with several home inspection companies in the past and it must be stated that KC Bartley and Professional Home Inspections are amongst the best. KC is professional, prompt, educated and informed, easy to talk to, and he delivers information (both verbally and in writing) in a manner that is easily understandable and digestible. It’s clear that Professional Home Inspections cares about providing accurate, thorough, and unbiased information to their clients. More importantly, it’s obvious that KC wants to ensure that his customers get into the correct home and understand all the findings and observations that accompany that decision.read moreread less Travis Zweibohmer7/08/2024KC has to be the best in the industry! His report was so detailed and easy to understand. He was super professional and helpful throughout the whole process. I can not say enough good things about him! 5 STARSread moreread less Todd Bowers7/01/2024
- Due to health symptoms I wanted to have my home tested for mold. I contacted KC and he immediately responded back to me. At our appointed time he was prompt and conducted a very thorough inspection with us receiving the results by the next afternoon. He offered very helpful suggestions concerning different areas. You will not find a more courteous or knowledgeable inspector. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a piece of mind about their home. It was an excellent experience for us.read moreread less Kim Gurley6/24/2024A very thorough and honest inspector was top priority for us. After several hours looking through recommendations and reviews we chose Professional Home inspections as our inspector. Boy let me tell you it was a blessing. They communicated well, were on time, extremely thorough, and most importantly kept us from buying a bad home. One seller was trying to cover up many issues with the home to include mold, foundation issues, and wood rot. The inspector knows what he is looking at and took the time to explain what issues were found, These were serious defects that not only had bad health implications, but would have costed tens of thousands of dollars to repair. 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone. If you want someone who actually has your best interest at heart, choose Professional Home Inspections. You will not regret it!read moreread less SJ MAD6/17/2024KC is very nice and super knowledgeable. His professionalism is beyond reproach. His reports are thorough, they’re organized and easy to read. Well worth the money.read moreread less Marie Garay6/17/2024

Will recommend him in the future!read moreread less Shelly Morgan6/07/2024We wanted an inspector to inspect a house we are purchasing. I really appreciate his attention to every detail and I truly feel he inspected the house as if it was him buying it for himself. I added on the radon test for my peace of mind and I am glad I did. If you are looking for the best inspector, give KC a call, you won't regret it.read moreread less Karla Thibodeaux5/13/2024KC did an amazing job on our home inspection.

- KC is very thorough and professional. He completed the house inspection and radon testing in a timely fashion. His reports are in depth as well as easy to read and pictures are included as well. KC answers all your questions and concerns while on scene as well as after the inspection is complete. I highly recommend his services.read moreread less Cynthia P.4/29/2024Thorough, knowledgeable and incredibly communicative - these are the 3 words that I would choose to describe KC Bartley. He arrived on time to do the inspection on the home I was considering to purchase, carefully inspected every part of the house, shared with me the findings when I arrived half an hour into the inspection and even allowed me to tag along as he completed the inspection. I asked him a ton of questions; he was very patient with me and enthusiastic about answering them. I have to say if I ever buy another house in TN, he will be the first one to call. I fully trusted his judgement, appreciated his communication style and just genuinely enjoyed the process which I thought would have been much more stressful. Thank you!read moreread less Christina Willis4/22/2024I recently worked with KC Bartley from Professional Home Inspections and was incredibly impressed. KC is knowledgeable, thorough, and really focuses on the buyer’s needs. He explains everything clearly and offers reasonable pricing for top-notch services. What stands out is his commitment to the buyer's interests, ensuring you understand both current and potential future issues with the property. If you need a detailed and buyer-focused home inspection, KC Bartley is an excellent choice. Highly recommended for anyone looking to make an informed home purchase!read moreread less Frank Wood4/22/2024
- KC was amazing! He was very clear with the explanation of what was being inspected, and what would need to be done to repair the issue. He was personable and answered all my questions. If this home doesn't work out, we will be calling him for the next! Thank Youread moreread less Rebecca Hayes4/22/2024Clear, consciese, and thorough. I would highly recommend Professional Home Inspections LLC. Really appreciated the personal contact from KC after the inspection and receiving the report. He really is ( your inspector).read moreread less Bill Goforth4/09/2024If you are buying a home in NE Tennessee, you want KC to inspect the home. He is extremely thorough, and you will know every issue about the house from minor to marginal to significant. His report will help you decide if the house is a good fit for you or if you need to walk away. Our realtor told us she uses nobody else, even if it means losing a sale at the moment. KC is a plethora of knowledge, and now we know what needs to be taken care of ASAP and what can be taken care of a little later down the road. If you are buying a home in the Tri-Cities area, make sure to use KC. It will be the best decision you make.read moreread less Steve Goodger4/07/2024
- K.C. is both super knowledgeable and very friendly. I showed up to go through the inspection with him, and he taught me an immense amount while going over every tiny detail.

Always a pleasure. He is up front and honest and when I do need an inspection, I’m definitely giving him a call.read moreread less AJ Cline Ministries4/07/2024KC is tops in the field of pre purchase , home inspections.

He takes his time and goes through your entire home when doing your inspection. My daughter recommended Mr Bartley after using him on her house when buying a couple years back. I would recommend Mr Bartley to anyone.read moreread less Amy Carter2/16/2024
- Amazing person to work with!! Very thorough in the inspection.read moreread less carrie phillips2/15/2024We needed an inspection quickly and were at a loss on how to make that happen. I came across KC while doing a Google search. After speaking with him, he explained the process and fit us in a couple of days later when he was in our area. I recommend reaching out if you need of a home inspection for any reason.read moreread less Dana Wilds2/13/2024Alright folks so here's the deal, I hate leaving reviews but felt after my experience with KC I had to. If you read no further, hire this professional and pay him whatever he wants to inspect your home! Dealing with KC has been a breath of fresh air so to speak and it gives me hope that there are still honest ethical people out there who genuinely care about people and are truly passionate about what they do. Before I hired his services, he spent roughly an hour on the phone with me just talking about the whole process (plus some) and answering all my questions. And left the first phone call with a "if you decide to hire someone else, that's just fine but you feel free to call me anyway if you have any questions about THEIR report". We have had several conversations since I first called not only about home inspections but all sorts of things. He reminded me of why we're moving back to TN! I have to provide this example (hope you don't mind KC), this man called me after about 2 hours into the inspection to let me know he had found enough concerning things that he wanted to try and save/return some of the money we paid for the inspection so we would have a chance to bring those items to the seller to see if they were willing to negotiate at all before we spent anymore. This was OUR decision, not his (meaning he didn't push anything) and we took him up on the offer and he refunded about half of the fees. In the end we opted to have him go back out and finish the inspection at which point we paid the refunded portions back and he went back out the very next day and spent probably another 3-4 hours finishing the inspection (calling at least 2-3 times during just to update on some major items of concern). The level of service KC has provided has without question been top notch. Yes, he is more expensive than most but as the saying goes, "you get what you pay for"... KC's professionalism and work ethic is like buying the Cadillac, not the KIA! There is a reason your realtor recommends the cheaper inspector that I will not go into... In the end, we terminated our contract due to the amount of concerns found as they ended up just being too much. We will without a doubt be requesting his services again once we find another home to try and purchase.read moreread less Ben Hastings2/10/2024
- I called KC after scrambling the entire day to find someone that could complete my inspection in time for my contract. Long story short, my inspector bailed out an hour before inspection. I spoke with two other companies and they instantly had a spot for me and were much cheaper than the person I had used before. I felt a little uneasy and took the recommendation just to call KC. He was very upfront with me about being more costly and told me to research him before making a decision in booking an inspection with him. He actually didn’t have an available slot for me but told me he would make the time to ensure I would have my place inspected before the deadline. I decided to use him based off him not being a salesman ( read his page if you haven’t). I told him I would meet him about two hours into the inspection. He knew what I was concerned about the most from my attempt of a previous purchase and called me early on to ask if I could come earlier so he could show and explain what he found already. I showed up , he explained his concern and then continued on with the inspection. If he found anything, he would show and explain the concern. The thing that stuck with me the most was him saying he wanted all parties to know the truth and to be happy. He reassured me anything could be fixed but at the end of the day it’s what I could put into it. We talked for about 45 minutes after the inspection about some of his findings and was very honest when I asked him questions about contractors. He could only give me a list just like any realtor. He told me to call him at anytime if I had any questions and he answered immediately when I did call. The first inspection by another company had around 50 pages and mostly just pictures. His inspection had about 80 pages with pictures and precise explanations on what the issue was in terms that I understood . I agree with KC, if he is recommended by a realtor then you are getting a realtor that is working for you. I loved the extra details and all of his work has made it much easier in the fact that if I decide to proceed, I am not walking into a money pit. I will always recommend him to anyone and I would always pay him more because you do get what you pay for at the end of the day.read moreread less Jessica Evans2/10/2024Great job on indoor air quality inspection. Very informative and professional. All my concern were addressed and reports received promptly.
