Kind Words From My Happy Clients

Clear, 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).

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.

KC is tops in the field of pre purchase , home inspections. He did an extremely thorough examination of the house that we were contemplating purchasing. This is the seventh home that I’ve purchased in my life and this inspection was, by far, the most complete and very easy to understand. I’m confident in the decision that we made, following his very readable and complete report.

Honest and reliable is something you can’t find anymore and this is something that I can say, Mr Bartley is Honest and Reliable. 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.

We 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.

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.

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!!!!

We’ve all heard it… “You don’t need an inspection on a new build.” Let me just say that my inspection that KC did proved that to be 100% false and potentially saved me tens of thousands of dollars in the long run. Immediately on arrival, he was able to identify major issues with a brand new build, including significant damage to the foundation, incorrect sloping of the lot, and incorrect construction methods that would all prove to be extremely costly in the long run. All of these problems from a “reputable” builder. Just imagine what you might find from some of those DIY flip houses. KC saved me from making a HORRIBLE investment by being open, honest, and transparent. I’ll say this… if it’s a good home, he will tell you. If it’s one to run from, he will also tell you. There is no biased or influenced opinions. He is extremely knowledgeable about construction techniques and can spot a problem immediately if something has been done incorrectly or not to code. I strongly recommend KC, and will certainly be calling him when we find a home that is (hopefully) not as bad as this one.

The best and most thorough home inspection that I've ever had done. KC had the results to me shortly after the inspection was done, and called me later that day to make sure I didn't have any questions or concerns. The inspection report was extremely detailed. Thank you.

Highly recommend KC !! He had done an inspection for us about 5 years back for the house we currently live in. His attention to detail was the main reason we chose him again for our potentially new house. He has been meticulous in his inspection with details highlighted in very easy to understand manner. He also spent ample amount of time without any hesitation after the inspection in going over questions I had. Could not have chosen a better inspector !!!

I've owned many homes and I've never had a more thorough inspector who CARED and went above and beyond my thoughts of what an inspector should do. If you want a quality, not rushed inepection done, call Ronnie, he truly is the best there is!

WOW!!! Where to begin,my husband and I moved down from Central NY to make our retirement home here in TN. We've done alot of drive-by and looked at several,put in offers on two.and been saved by KC on both counts.He was recommended by our realtor and he's saved us from money pits.From bad,bad foundation work,rotten window frames,faulty doors,messy plumbing. he was and is a blessing,worth every penny spent. He takes his time to explain what he's looking at and why it's important.He's professional,courteous and polite,you can tag-a-long behind him ,he'll answer every question you have. In our opinion he's the best and we won' be buying a home without his inspection. Thank you KC. Mike and Sharon Pellizzari

Mr Bartley is the best inspector I have ever worked with. He is professional, courteous, and very knowledgeable about inspecting a home. He doesn’t skip any details and gives you a thorough report. I would recommend him to anyone and definitely will use him again if I need another home inspection. Brenda Roberts

KC took the time to answer questions we had prior to the inspection. After the inspection he called to discuss the inspection and took the time to review the findings. KC provided us with peace of mind with the purchase of our new home. We highly recommend KC and Professional Home Inspections LLC!

KC was so honest and caring with the inspection. We are relocating and cannot spend much time in the area. We met him at the property and he had only completed part of the inspection when he showed us the problems with foundation issues. The problems were bad enough that the inspection wasn't completed and he refunded part of the fee. Needless to say we did not go through with the purchase.

Our realtor recommended his "own inspector" but after reading KC's reviews we went with him and are glad we did. He did a thorough and comprehensive inspection and found things that were not up to the latest codes. We highly recommend KC.

This is Chris Frail reviewing KC Bartley. I was extremely fortunate to accompany KC on the inspection of a house we were purchasing in Tennessee . KC did an outstanding job with his home inspection and even explained in great detail what he was doing . If you need a home inspector there is no other in Tennessee!! Thanks KC for your efforts the report was incredibly detailed and played a major role in our decision.👍

I first began using KC in 2018 when I started looking to purchase my first "big" home. Since it was a substantial purchase and commitment, I wanted the best, most thorough home inspector around. When my realtor advised that "realtors hate KC Bartley," I knew he was the one! He is one of the most kind, thorough, and genuine humans that you will ever meet. He gives a 1000% honest assessment no matter if it leads to a broken deal or an angry seller and/or realtor. At this point, I have used KC for almost 5 years and his honesty and consistency has remained steadfast, KC is the definition of integrity. Additionally, KC possesses an arsenal of specialized tools and equipment to aid and amplify his assessment. From entire homes to focal inspections, KC is 100% your guy, I can't say enough goodness about KC and Professional Home Inspections.

KC is top notch! We have used him when purchasing a home and he was thorough and informative. We are impressed with his knowledge and professionalism. We take care of our home and having a great inspector ensures we know exactly what we are buying. Thank you KC for your hard work and attention to detail. Unfortunately we experienced a problem with the realtors here in Kingsport in regards to using KC and it caused us to walk away from two potential homes. Sadly we have proof of them being in cahoots to blacklist him because of his thorough work. It’s pretty frustrating a sad to see “professionals” being shady about who we pick to be our inspector. Mind your own business and support your clients in their decisions. We will always refer KC, he’s trust worthy and very proficient. Definitely better than the other inspector we were forced to use on one of the homes we tried to buy. Thank you KC!

Honest home inspector! Whether you like it or not, realtors (even those representing the buyer) have no financial incentive to drive the home price down, so an inspector that gives the honest truth about home deficiencies is rarely recommended by a realtor. We greatly appreciated KC. I would highly recommend to anyone who really wants to get to know their prospective house.

KC Bartley a terrific job for us. He uncovered hidden fatal flaws in the home, making it uninhabitable by us. Black mold made the proposed inhabitant sick when she came into the room. Roof, water damage and other flaws were covered over by the seller and her representative. KC easily identified the flaws and we withdrew our offer. D. L. Sorrell (NOT Craig, our son)
