Thank you Ryan for conducting a thorough inspection and coming up with an excellent report. I appreciate your diligence during the entire inspection process, your taking time to explain the inspection scope, process and summary findings. The report is very professionally presented, providing clear findings and the recommended course of action. Your diligence and attention to detail stands out remarkably.

Ryan was very nice and professional and did a super thorough job of the inspection. My real estate agent and several other people in my circle commented on how detailed it was. He also talked through all of my questions (which were a lot) and offered to continue to answer questions in the future and gave me some helpful hints on what I should or should not nice to do vs must do from future vendors I might have out to the house. I also really like the format of the inspection report itself.

Ryan was able to accommodate a tight inspection contingency turnaround for us. His inspection was highly thorough and informative. The online report was very helpful and well written to show us what was a critical fix and what would be simple maintenance work. He also walked us through everything he had seen in the house before he left and took a lot of time to answer our questions. We will definitely use Chronicle Inspections for any future inspections!

Feb '18 Seattle, WA
As a contractor in the city, I am constantly reminded companies that communicate well are often times the ones providing the best products. Whether looking for a home inspector or another service it starts with good communication which drives results. Having worked with Ryan on multiple levels he consistently delivers on these qualities. Ryan is skilled and extremely knowledgable in construction from the ground up and in home renovations. These experiences clearly help him in carefully evaluating homes for his customers. I have used Ryan’s services in the past and will continue without hesitation.

Ryan does a very thorough job. His reports even got compliments from some of my co-workers who have been in the construction industry for 30 years.
Jul '15 Kirkland, WA
Ryan did an awesome job! He was very thorough and professional He also ended up finding a few minor issues with the house that we used to negotiate with the seller to pay a portion of the closing costs. I will definitely be recommending him to friends who start looking for homes in the future!
