Testimonials
I have worked with Rick Marsh of Nickelsen Home Inspections since 2005 and he has not missed a single thing for any of my client's inspections. He typically find things that other inspectors do not find. When you are a buyer or representing buyers, like I am, this is what you want!

We used Nickelsen Home Inspections twice in a one month period; they were thorough, professional, and detailed oriented. On the first house, they uncovered serious defects and problems, and we terminated the escrow; on the second house, they helped us identify several problem areas prior to closing, and we were able to negotiate with the seller for repairs. Rick Marsh is an experienced and practiced inspector, who communicates well and prepares timely in-depth reports. We highly recommend the company.

Rick did a great job on my home inspection. He was very meticulous. He politely answered all of my questions as we went through the inspection. He also provided suggestions for cost-conscious ways to solve each deferred maintenance item that we encountered along the way. I was very happy with his professional workmanship.
