Kind Words From My Happy Clients

Outstanding experience. From start to finish, the process was professional, thorough, and stress-free. The inspector explained everything clearly, and took the time to answer all of my questions in detail. The inspection itself was incredibly thorough, covering every aspect of the home, and the report was easy to understand with clear photos and practical recommendations. What impressed me most was the inspector’s honesty and ability to explain technical issues in a way that made sense. Surely his thorough inspection prevented me from walking into a disaster. I highly recommend KC to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy home inspector!

KC was great to work with. A co-worked referred KC to me and told me he’s the best in the business and after meeting KC and watching him work I’d have to agree. Called him last minute for a home inspection with only a few days notice and he moved his schedule around to accommodate us. Most realtors in the area refer to KC as the contract killer and we joking discussed this upon meeting. KC said I don’t care for that name, I’m not out to kill contracts I just make sure my clients are aware of every issue I find in the house big or small and it’s my client decision to review my finding and make there own decisions from there. He was very knowledgeable and took time to explain all his findings. I will use KC in the future and would recommend him to anyone asking for a good home inspector. He takes great pride in what he does and it shows in his work. You also get a very nice inspection report at the end of the inspection.

KC is a wonderful person, extremely knowledgeable, polite and helpful. The inspection report was thorough and had photographs to substantiate everything, he even has a drone! He followed up with me to see if I had any questions (which of course I did!) I will be hiring him again for future house purchases. If anyone asks who I would recommend for home inspections, I will tell them - KC Bartley with Professional Home Inspections!!! Today he did a Mold Test for me. He got the results back THE NEXT DAY! He explained the test results in DETAIL. We discussed various options for fixing the problem. I was very well prepared when meeting with the contractor. I knew exactly what to ask, and what to expect. It is true, "With knowledge comes Power." KC's inspection gave me the knowledge to make an educated choice. That gave me the Power to talk intelligently with the contractor. THANK YOU KC!!!

Being a potential home buyer can be very stressful. Protecting my investment was my main concern. In looking for a “forever” home, I wanted to ensure that no stone was left unturned. Several people recommended different home inspectors but their reports and knowledge didn’t seem as extensive as Mr. Bartley’s. It’s apparent his intent is to protect your investment and provide the most detailed and accurate information pertaining to any and all underlying issues. His report was incredibly thorough and easy to understand. Mr. Bartley contacted me after sending me his report to go over any items or questions that I may have had. Customer service is not dead with this company!

Extremely thorough and professional! We recently used Professional Home Inspections for a home we were considering purchasing, and I can't say enough good things about the experience. KC was incredibly detailed and caught several major issues that we would have otherwise missed. Everything from grading and deck safety to HVAC concerns and moisture problems. The report was easy to follow, organized, and packed with helpful explanations, recommendations, and photos. You could tell this wasn't just a checkbox inspection. It was done with care and expertise. Highly recommend to anyone needing a reliable, knowledgeable, a home inspection!

This guy is so worth it! He’s like the Holmes on Homes of Tennessee! We feel so lucky to have found him. Also qualified, radon and mold inspector. Go on his website. Look at the samples of his reports they live up to exactly what he turns in for you. Everything is explained completely. He’s more than happy to go over anything you need. Even recommended some contractors for us that were trustworthy in the area! He is expensive and worth every penny! He does schedule two weeks out. I’m not surprised with the quality of work he does. He’s extremely popular. Best First investment you can make on your future home. Thank you, KC. We’re over the moon.

During the process of buying a house recently, we chose KC Bartley to do the home inspection. The first thing that impressed me was his website. Besides offering a wealth of information about inspections, it was very easy to navigate and I was able to give him all the info he needed plus set up the appointment. Very soon I received a phone call from KC to confirm the appointment and discuss even more details. During the inspection I was amazed at his knowledge, thoroughness, and enthusiasm. He explained what he was seeing and what could be done to correct any problems. He also pointed out issues that were not of immediate concern, but that we should include in our home maintenance program. Even weeks after our inspection, he has continued to be a valuable resource as we seek his advice and recommendations. If you value high standards and excellent service you should definitely choose KC for your home inspection.

We had KC do our pre-drywall inspection, and we couldn’t be more impressed. He was incredibly thorough, professional, and clearly very experienced. What stood out most was not just his attention to detail, but also the great working relationship he has with the builders — it made the entire process smooth and collaborative. He took the time to explain everything to us and delivered the full report the same day, which was detailed, clear, and easy to understand. We feel so much more confident moving forward with our new home thanks to KC. Highly recommend him to anyone needing a quality home inspection!

I was extremely pleased with the services of KC Bartley at Professional Home Inspections LLC. He was extremely thorough and kept in close contact with me. He discovered within the first hour of inspection that the house had extensive foundation issues, as well as plumbing and electrical problems. He called me right away to offer me the option to discontinue the inspection, which I did. He then refunded me a large portion of my advance payment. It was definitely worth what I paid to learn that the house, which looked great on the surface, would have given me nothing but headaches had I purchased it. Thank you, KC Bartley!

KC returned my call in a timely manner so that I could inquire about a home inspection. As a first time home buyer, I was unsure of what to expect. KC walked me through the entire process. I was able to be present for the home inspection. He was extremely thorough as he checked the home. At the end of the inspection, he gave me a brief overview on what he would report on, and he also pointed out things at the home that he would address. I was extremely pleased with the amount of detail and kindness shown by KC. The detailed report was sent to me that same afternoon with ways to fix any problems! I appreciate the way he conducted himself and his honesty when inspecting the house. I hope to never move again...but if I do, I'll use KC again for his thorough and professional expertise!

KC at professional home inspections just saved us the pain and financial burden of buying a house with numerous defects that were neither disclosed or apparent. His services were a little more expensive, but I am very glad to have paid more for the level of detail that we got from his inspection. If we had gone with a less thorough company we'd likely be stuck with a house with all of its problems and a huge financial loss. I only met him in person one time, but it was readily apparent that he is a man of his word with strong guiding principles and treats people according to the golden rule. My wife was equally impressed with his kindness and sincerity in speaking with him on the phone twice. Unfortunately we didn't get the house we wanted, but fortunately we had someone looking out for us. Highly recommended.

I have had the pleasure of working with KC twice since relocating to NE TN and have had an exceptional experience in both instances. Over the past 30+ years I have purchased and sold a number of homes, and working with a different home inspector in each situation; without question, KC is the most knowledgeable, detail oriented, and buyer-focused home inspector I have ever worked with. I can’t imagine I will ever again use anyone but KC for one of the most important aspects of the home buying process - he is a true professional and the best in the business!

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.

I’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.

A 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!

Thorough, 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!

If 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.

Alright 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.

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.

Great job on indoor air quality inspection. Very informative and professional. All my concern were addressed and reports received promptly. Thank you for making us feel more comfortable in our home decision and explaining what we can do to correct our issues. I highly recommend using KC he’s a 5 star plus!

If you are looking for the most thorough inspection possible, you've found it! KC does not cut any corners and gives an in depth inspection of the entire property. Thanks to him we were able to decline a home due to the extensive amount of work needed and now are scheduling him for our (hopefully!) forever home next week! He may not be the cheapest around, but in this business you get what you pay for and he is worth every penny! Buying a home is a huge cost, especially in todays market. Don't waste you money on a half done inspection and find a multitude of problems down the road. Do it right the first time and make sure you know what you are buying, this type of purchase is not one to skimp on! Our original report was near 100 pages and detailed (with images and pricing) everything we would need to do to get the home taken care of. It is even broken down by category, so you know what HAS to be fixed vs what can be done later. This is our third home purchase and I only wish we could have used him for our first two, it would have saved us a lot of headache once we became the homeowners.

By far the best home inspection. I was purchasing a home from out of state is so I couldn't be there during the inspection. Our son was able to join the inspector KC during the inspection. And because we was purchasing this home for our sons, it was important that they knew what to look for in the home and how to maintain and take care of it. KC did more that a wonderfull job showing them the in and outs of their new home. My son had told me he learned so much from his brief interaction with KC and he really enjoyed the experience. The was truly heartwarming for me as I was across the country many states away and couldn't be there. After the inspection was completed KC called me and went through the full inspection via phone in detail as if I were there in person. Wonderful person to work with and very thorough. I highly recommend him for your next home inspection. I was lucky enough to get a recommendation from him through my amazing realtor Mike Ramsey. Big thanks to KC Bartley!!!!

Hands down the only person I’d want to inspect a home prior to purchasing. Very thorough and detailed in his inspections and doesn’t ignore anything no matter how small.

This is my first Google review. My experience with KC warrants all the credit in the world. KC was courteous, informative, knowledgable, communicative, thorough and helpful from start to finish. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend KC to anyone looking to get honest, informed answers to any issues with their home. Thanks again KC, much respect!
