We’ve purchased three properties in the course of 14 years (one an investment condo) and each time had Claxton Walker inspect our homes.
The first two times Skip Walker did the inspection, on the third property we had Billy. Each time we were very happy. Their inspectors are very thorough and knowledgeable. They spent a lot of time with us, walking us thru the issues, letting us know what might be an issue over time if we didn’t eventually address is.
We got detailed reports on each home, a list of things that were required to be repaired before we moved in, a list of things that somewhere down the line we’d have to keep an eye on.
I’ve recommended them to several friends buying homes and I know many agents who use them as their go-to inspection company. I would never use another company to inspect a home that I am about to purchase. This company is fantastic.
I’m surprised by the negative review given to them by Ed E. I have to assume that he wasn’t an active participant in the inspection process. You don’t get to ask for new windows on an old home just because they open/close with difficulty. And there’s no way for an inspector to predict when an a/c unit is about to die.

Bill Walker inspected my home prior to closing on it. I was buying a fixer-upper with 40 years of neglect, so there was more wrong with it than was right with it.
Bill spent a long time at the house and poured over every detail. Not only did Bill point out a lot of things I wasn’t seeing, but he gave me great advice on what should be my priority, what will be expensive, what won’t be expensive. He even got on the roof twice to check things out (not easy to get up there).
I got the product that I paid for — a fantastic home inspection and report with pictures and detailed notes — plus a lot of great advice for tackling a major overhaul.

We had a bad experience. First mistake, went with recommendation from our real estate agent. Two guys and they spent about 4 hours at the house, then wrote up a detailed report, but first 5 pages are all legal disclaimers. We moved in, then started finding all the things that they missed. Windows not closing properly, AC old and had to be replaced within a few months. Just one thing after another, and we’ve fixed/replaced each… but as we did, I thought… how could those guys have missed this. Frustrating. And they are very expensive.

Alan is an amazing inspector! He caught and properly documented everything. These guys are worth every penny!

I’m surprised no one’s left a review of these folks before — they are TOP NOTCH!
Alan did our inspection of a recently «flipped» home and did not miss a beat. He caught everything from loose wires, missing lightbulbs, jiggly toilets and cabinets that opened into each other to larger items like improper grading in the yard (potentially causing basement flooding) and missing caps on chimneys. He spent 3+ hours with us and never once checked his watch.
This guy is a home buyers dream, and a home sellers nightmare!
