Best

We have used Ken twice for inspections and I wouldn't go to anyone else. His knowledge, detail, and customer service is top notch! I trust him completely and was so thankful for...

Worst

All reviews seem positive

Very knowledgeable, friendly, and diligent services were provided. 8/18/2011

Being a firs-time home buyer I did not know really what to expect. But regardless of set expectations; you always know if someone is doing their job. Portico went above and beyond regular expectations by explaining areas of review to taking double takes and ensuring the inspection was truly comprehensive. more

Very Detailed Job 7/27/2011

I could'nt ask for a better report and detailed job that Ken did for us. more

Very efficient and personable. A valuable service. 7/26/2011

When I was preparing to buy a condo, my realtor arranged a professional inspection with Portico Home Inspections. Our inspector was very personable and responsive, and came out quickly. He was in and out quickly, as well. He did a very efficient, very good job. I saw the checklist the inspector was using, and it was very thorough. Not everything on the list applied, since there is more to investigate in a house than in a condo, but I could see that Portico cover their bases. All the comments he made were valuable, and I did end up buying the condo. I have no complaints. more

Above And Beyond 6/28/2011

The inspection was incredibly thorough and detailed. Ken carefully listened to my concerns, and explained every issue - he really took time to do it right. He even inspected a free-standing structure for me after the inspection, just to be nice. Then after the inspection, Ken followed up with several emails regarding various issues we had discussed, after he had time to think about it and do some research on different solutions. Cannot say enough good things about Portico, and Ken in particular - I will definitely go with them in the future if I need another inspection done. more

Perfect 6/23/2011

Awesome service! Very great and detailed. more

Overall satisfied 6/23/2011

Would be nice to receive all documents in a nice binder mailed to the home for the review. It would also be nice to have a follow up call to discuss all the findings RESPONSE FROM Portico Home Inspection Llc: Fred, thank you for taking the time to post a review. It's always good to know if a customer is happy with my work, and your feedback is valuable. The reporting system I use stores reports on a secure website, where customers can access them at any time. It saves paper and ink, and the need to mail a bulky document. Steve Jobs may talk about putting documents, etc. on "The Cloud" as if it's new idea, but I've been doing exactly that for years. There are inspectors who put together a binder, but this is the way I prefer to do it, and no one has ever asked for a printed version before. Anyone who has access to the report (customers and their Realtor, usually) can print it from the website, and the report can be forwarded by the customer to whomever they choose. I'm always available by phone or email to answer any follow up questions and to refer contractors or other resources, and gladly do so whenever I'm asked. more


Very easy to work with. 5/31/2011

Ken from Portico did what he calls a walk through. It's not a formal kind of thing. I just followed him around and took some photographs while he talked about things I needed to improve on in the house. I'm not going to sell the house, I just wanted to think in terms of how things should be improved at some point. Ken was very easy to work with, and he answered all my questions quite thoroughly.

Outstanding - could not have been more satisfied. 5/25/2011

Ken Meyer did the inspection on the house we are buying. He is the best I have ever encountered - bright, competent, and very easy to talk with. He is polite and respectful, good sense of humor and explains things very well. And, his inspection report is a perfect blueprint for home maintenance. Thanks!!! more

An easy, but effective inspection experience. 5/13/2011

We were able to get Ken to perform an inspection on short notice so we could get it done before flying home. He did a very thorough job and had great communication with us before, during, and after the inspection. We would definitely work with Portico again. more

Excellent to work with! 5/7/2011

Ken was easy to work with, friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. I really appreciated his calm, clear, communication and the visuals to go along with his report. He is through but succinct, so I could easily understand him but also feel confident in his capabilities. I am very happy to have his report and recommendations for planning and use in the future. more

A high quality professional with good attention to detail. 5/2/2011

Portico Home Inspection was very professional, very thorough, and timely. The inspector acted like he actually cared, and was personable, so I would say everything was positive. He was a high quality professional with good attention to detail. more

Top notch professional 4/29/2011

Portico represents the highest level of professional behavior and high quality. Ken's inspection was never hurried, and his goal seemed the same as mine: understand entirely the state of the house in the most subtle details. Of any professional I've ever used, I would rank this as the best experience. What an inspector should be is fundamentally curious, calm and persistently hard working. Ken exceeds the highest expectation in these areas. You can only afford one inspection; why not get the best? more

Excellent service, very thorough and complete 4/25/2011

Ken did an excellent job with our home inspection. He was very thorough, even changing into a dust suit and gas mask at one point to investigate our crawl space! He delivered the report to us the very same day (on a Saturday even). Highly recommended. more

Just what I wanted. 4/25/2011

I'm very happy with the inspection Ken provided. The report was very clear and easy to understand. He did a great job helping me understand not only what needed to be fixed, but how to lengthen the life of some features. more

House inspection 4/16/2011

Very thorough - took the time to really look things over and discuss all the items with me. I appreciated it. I also appreciated his flexibility in meeting my time frame - which meant working on a Sunday. more

Overall, I was very pleased with the service. 4/15/2011

Our inspector was friendly, knowledgable, and has gone beyond our expectations in a good way. more

Ken Meyer was professional, very knowledgeable and very thorough. 4/9/2011

Ken Meyer was professional, very knowledgeable and very thorough. I was impressed with the time he took to complete the inspection (5 hours) and the fact that he understood the many systems in the home and could provide tguidance on repairs/maintenace to them all. The document produced by Mr. Meyer will become the basis for which we make repairs over time. Thanks, Ken. more

Go with Portico if you want piece of mind 4/8/2011

One word sums up Ken and the quality of his work.. OUTSTANDING. I would recommend Ken to anyone who needs a home inspection. One of his reports saved me from buying a house that on the outside looked great but on the inside (hidden areas) had severe issues. His reports are clear and written in a very easy to understand fashion. Ken knows his stuff and his experience shines through the whole inspection. Use Portico home inspection you will not be dissapointed. more

Excellent 4/8/2011

Ken was extremely thorough in his inspection of the house we are purchasing. The pictures he placed in his report show exactly what needs attention. My father in-law has built houses for over 30 years, when he saw the home inspection he was very impressed with the level of detail. Ken even went above and beyond to email me two days after the inspection on further ideas he had about the house and how to deal with certain issues that arose during the inspection. more
