Testimonials

Each time my clients choose Tim Hance of All Islands Home Inspections I have confidence knowing they are getting the most comprehensive, detailed inspection available. Tim brings many skills to the table; one that stands out for me is his ability to communicate respectfully and professionally with both buyers and sellers. He is timely and produces a detailed report that is exceptional. I recommend Tim to my buyers; I also refer him to sellers for a pre-listing inspection/report.

Gwyneth BurrillWindermere Real Estate

Tim Hance was very professional and thorough with his inspection. The report was precise, well written, and easy to understand with lots of photos. His service was also fast and reasonably priced for all he did. If I ever need a home inspection again I will use All Island Home Inspections. Thank you for a great service!

Shelly KalalAndover, KS

I have been involved with real estate on Orcas Island for 21 years. I am delighted to find that your work ethics and thoroughness exceeds past experiences with inspectors, as well as surpassing my expectations. I have had both personal and professional experience with your work and have never had to think about how my clients will be treated, or have to second guess the report that you deliver on schedule. I also know you will give recommendations that will save the owner/client money in the long run. I do not hesitate to recommend your services.

Tim of All Islands Home Inspections is a pleasure to work with. He is prompt, courteous and service oriented, a true professional. I will continue to place Tim’s service at the top of my list.

Jaylin PeacockWindermere Real Estate

I have used Tim Hance at All Islands Home Inspections on two real estate transactions in the past year and found his inspections to be thorough and well documented. He responded quickly to all phone calls and completed the inspections in a timely manner, even on property on a non-ferry served island. I found him energetic, competent and the buyers were impressed with his presentation. I would not hesitate to recommend All Islands Home Inspections in the future.

Jane SawyerColdwell Banker San Juan Islands Inc.

This is a must for anyone thinking to purchase a home… Tim’s services go behind the facade and ferrets out all the pluses and minuses for the structure. Even if you don’t use his inspection report to negotiate with, it gives you a realistic, honest and thorough picture of what you are buying and what additional projects you’ll be looking at in the future–whether it’s a dripping faucet, faulty wiring or carpenter ants. Thanks to his thoroughness, I didn’t make a huge mistake. Use Tim to look behind those few coats of new paint. We WILL be using him again in the near future.

Todd & Susan Ekstrom

Tim, we simply cannot express how pleased we are with your home inspection. We have never experienced such thorough and complete service before. The personal time you spent explaining each detail of the report was very reassuring. We move into our new home with an in depth understanding of its idiosyncrasies and inner workings. More importantly, we have a sense of safety that we cannot place a value on. Thank you!

Evan & Valerie BuxbaumOrcas Island, WA

This is to thank you for the incredibly thorough and detailed inspection you made of the home we are purchasing on Orcas. We have bought and sold a number of properties over the years but we have never encountered a home inspector who was as careful and conscientious as you are. We were amazed you would sit with us after the inspection and go through every photo you took and explain what you had found and what it meant. That you would also patiently answer every question we had was also greatly appreciated. The strong sense we have of your integrity and care in conducting our home inspection gave us great confidence in proceeding to buy our Orcas home. We look forward to seeing you on island in the future.

Arthur & Judy Winer

I have found Tim Hance to be efficient, reliable, and responsive. His inspection reports are both detailed and comprehensive, yet presented in a clear and concise fashion. A true professional, we in the San Juan Islands are fortunate to have Tim Hance!

Kathryn FarronWindermere Real EstateSan Juan Island

Tim’s report was extremely thorough & comprehensive. His findings were presented in an organized, easy to understand manner, with clearly defined recommendations.

Purchasing a home from out of state can seem overwhelming. But Tim conducted our home inspection and made that part of the process so simple. His report was not only very thorough, but easy to understand, even if you are not familiar with construction or the systems your home has. He provided clear photos and video of the inspection, and really took the time to walk us through the inspection report and answer any and all questions we had. If you are in need of someone to perform an inspection and you want the peace of mind that want it'll be done right, I highly recommend Tim at All Islands Home Inspection.read more

Tim was exceptionally thorough, friendly and efficient at our recent home inspection. He was professional, and took the time to not just conduct the inspection, but to discuss all his findings with us following the inspection. With a extremely tight deadline, he sent the report within an hour or so after our inspection! Will definitely use again, and recommend to anyone. If you need an inspection, don’t waste your time calling anyone else - call Tim first!read more

Tim is professional, considerate, friendly, thorough, and over all a good guy! He has inspected two houses for us and it's been a great experience both times.

I had to be out of town for a home inspection and Tim provided the most detailed and honest home inspection I have ever seen. Video and photo evidence including a clean and neat report provide an easy and efficient way to review a home in its entirety. When reviewing a home for any future home inspections, I will definitely be using All Islands Home Inspections.read more

We chose Tim to do our home inspection because I heard great reviews of him. We needed someone who knew who they were doing as we used our VA home loan. My S.O. is up there already and my daughter and I will be up there in a few short months. The videos helped so much since I’m not there yet and it’s great to see everything and understand it. Very professional and trustworthy service. He got the inspection report to us well within 24 hours. I highly recommend Tim.read more

Coordinated an inspection from FL, flew to WA to meet Tim at the house. Outstanding job and thoroughly explained everything after the inspection. Amazing report with tips on long term home care and 3D photos of every room in the house. Inspection report will be useful for renting / selling in the future. Tim even answered multiple questions as previous owners were executing the recommended repairs / upkeep. Highest recommendation possible.read more

Tim’s inspection was astoundingly thorough. We love the house we’re buying—but now we know the house in detail. Tim left nothing unexamined. His report included photos, videos, & a breakdown of categories repairs needed: from safety issues to minor repairs & upgrades.read more

Tim was prompt in all correspondence and communication from the start. He was very thorough and detailed in his inspection and report. I felt much better about our home purchase after his inspection, that all or most of the 'unknowns' had been documented. I would use him again and recommend his services to anyone in need of a home inspection.read more

Tim is personable, knowledgeable and thorough. He knows, and is known throughout, the San Juan Islands, and every real estate agent and contractor we spoke with knew him and had nothing but good things to say. He has a well earned reputation and gave us all the time we needed, answered numerous questions, and we came away feeling like we knew all we needed to make an important investment decision. Tim is a super intelligent and multi-faceted home inspector ... and even knows a couple of half-decent jokes!! Thanks, Tim!!read more

Once in a great while you come across a business where everything is done just right. Tim and All Islands Inspections is just such a business. Tim exemplified professionalism. Setting up the appointment was easy and timely. Tim’s report was stunningly thorough and complete. He provided a very helpful narrative, pictures, video and an additional set of 360 degree pictures. When we had further questions, Tim took the time over the phone to answer them all. Extremely satisfied. No hesitation recommending this business over and over again!read more
