San Diego Home Inspection

I have been referring clients to Joe and Shane at SDHI for many years and everyone I refer them to gives me feedback that they have a home inspection service for life. These guys are honest, dependable, fair with their pricing and write solid reports. They have great attention to detail and really look out for their clients’ best interests at all times. That is one of the most important things you can ask for when referring an inspection service. I feel very comfortable referring SDHI to anyone in need of a top notch residential or commercial inspection.

I have hired Joseph for two different home inspections over the past couple of months in Pacific Beach. I found him to be very professional and committed to delivering great service with a smile :-) He responded quickly to my phone calls and texts, he was easy to schedule with, he showed up early to both appointments and got to work right away, and he worked efficiently. His reports were detailed and to the point with clear photos. His fees were reasonable and he was willing to work with me on the price since I had two inspections close together. I would not hesitate in hiring him again in the future and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a Home Inspection.

Joe and his partner where great honest people who do thorough quality inspections at a reasonable price. They make sure to go over their inspections with my wife and I. They are trustworthy and I would recommend them to any real estate agent or buyer looking for a home inspection company. Thank you for all the good work you have provided for us!

15 years ago, I bought my first house and we had use Joe and Shane service for our home inspection. Every since then we’ve continue to use them for our 2^nd and 3^rd home. They really know what to look for and went above and beyond what I’ve expected.
After we’ve purchase the house, and I continue to have a few question. He never turn away and have always answer my questions.
If you’re looking for someone with a full knowledge about new or old homes… give Joe or Shane a call.

My husband and I are first time home buyers, and we had found a property in Ramona that we kept coming back to. It had everything we really wanted in a house. We were then thrown into the whirlwind of buying a home and everything moving very quickly. I had no idea where to even start for a home inspection, but I knew it was probably the most important part of the process. I found San Diego Home Inspection via Google and Unilocal,and I’m so glad I did!
I spoke with Joe on Tuesday to get a better idea of what they look for, their process, and things they commonly see, etc… Joe was very straight forward and explained things very honestly, which I appreciated, as I wanted a neutral/​honest party to do the inspection. So he sent Shane out on Weds to the property, and it was hot outside. It was easily 100 degrees and the AC inside the house was not functioning properly, so it sat at 90 degrees inside (the whole time). Shane did an amazing job, despite the heat! He did his inspection then took time to take us around to show us what he found during his inspection, explaining things and answering our questions. He had very good opinions on how things could be handled and definitely made us feel a lot better about our impending purchase!
It’s now Thursday and we already have our report. Efficient and fast!
I would totally recommend them, they are awesome!

We just purchased a home in Rancho Penasquitos and after reading the reviews on Unilocal,we decided to use San Diego Home Inspection for our home’s inspection. I spoke with Joe on the phone and he was very polite and explained what the inspection would include. This was nice to know because this is our first house, we owned a condo previously and a home purchase is much more involved for potential problems/​issues.
The day of the inspection Shane (Joe’s partner) arrived on time and went right to work checking over the outside and inside of our home. He was extremely nice and answered all of my questions after he finished his inspection. I especially liked how he walked around the home with me after his inspection to show me areas of concern and areas that I may want to have fixed if we buy the home. He pointed out that there were two loose roof tiles at the base of the roof in the back yard that could have fallen off and I should have those fixed. I have two boys that are now always playing in that area and I would have never known that the tiles were loose.
Also, in speaking with Shane, I learned that both him and Joe are licensed contractors and used to build homes before going into the inspection business. That really impressed me because they have actually had hands on experience in how homes are built and what problems to look for. When we bought our first condo, I did not know of San Diego Home Inspection and the inspector we chose (from another company), was not as detailed and missed a lot of items that were not to code. Most things I found out and had to fix when we put our condo up for sale years later.
Shane also had a special tool to see if there was moisture in the walls or ceilings (infrared gun type of tool). Our previous condo inspector never had this type of tool and Shane was able to check for water damage even if it was painted over! All in all, I was very impressed with the amount of knowledge I got from the detailed report they emailed me after the inspection was complete. They even took pictures of the problematic areas and included them in the report so that I would know exactly where to look to fix the issues after we moved in.
This home inspection process, in comparison to our previous condo inspection, were night and day difference. I would highly recommend San Diego Home Inspection! Thanks guys, we love our new home!

When taking your life’s savings and deciding to purchase a house you want to make sure that your money is well spent. Finding the right home inspector is more important than having a home inspection conducted on your investment. Joe Romeo of San Diego Home Inspection was that inspector for us.
Joe was nothing short of amazing. He took the time to thoroughly inspect the house and explain to me what he was finding so that my wife and I could make an informed decision.
Joe was professional, timely, and extremely polite. Prior to contacting Joe I had gone through the house during my initial home walk through. Everything that I had seen as a potential issue with the house Joe was able to find, with no prompting, and give his expert opinion without trying to sell me on someones particular services. Not to mention that we we’re close to the end of our buyers contingency period and needed the inspection report back as soon as possible.
Our home inspection was conducted on a Friday and a report was returned back to us on Saturday. I believe that this fact in and of itself speaks volumes of Joe Romeo and his willingness to satisfy his customers needs. I would highly recommend this company!

Recently I had the pleasure of meeting Joe Romeo of San Diego Home Inspection.
This was a result of him providing a home inspection for a recent town home purchase. He not only did an amazing job, but he found issues with the property that I had no idea existed. If that was not enough, he saved me money!!! Come on… a great and inspection and saved me money… Additionally, the inspection report was clear and concise. It provided leverage for me to negotiate having the seller pay for the repairs.
If you need a home inspection I strongly recommend Joe Romeo of San Diego Home Inspection.

Joe from SD Home Inspector did my home inspection when I was in the process of buying my home. To cover some simple details quickly he arrived on time as scheduled to be respectful of seller, RE Agent and our time, he charges a fair price for services provided and the findings and the detailed report was key in our negotiations and being comfortable moving forward with one of the largest purchases of our lives. He inspected every corner of the house from attic, closets, garage and outside areas of the home. He found things that even the seller hadn’t known about. Having purchased a home before and used a different inspector I can really speak to the professionalism and attention to detail Joe provided. If you are in the process of looking for a home have their info handy tell your agent you want to work with San Diego Home Inspection take advantage of their experience and expertise!

I have known Joe Romeo for over three years now and know personally of his service and professionalism. Whenever I meet someone who wants to buy a home, sell a home or is in the real estate market, he is my top referral. Utilizing a background in home construction, Joe brings a wealth of knowledge and detail to his inspections. Adding to this is a great personality, warmth and caring. You simply cannot go wrong getting Joe and his team to be part of your home-​buying or selling!

Joe and Shane performed a commercial building inspection. The scheduling process was easy and efficient, they showed up on time, were friendly, professional, and also uniformed. They pointed out issues we would’ve never known about in an organized report with clear pictures and suggestions on how to proceed. We used the report to negotiate a reduced purchase price on the property. Our broker was also impressed with them and plans to refer San Diego Home Inspection to other agents. Thank you for all your help!

Joe Romeo and his team are top notch professionals and experts in the inspection business. I have had the opportunity of working with many of his happy clients and those who regularly use his services. The reviews are always the same. Great customer service and superior knowledge and experience in inspecting homes or commercial properties.

I have not had the opportunity to use the services of Joe Romeo because I purchased my home many years ago. I have had the opportunity to speak with some of his clients and have seen the detailed reports he prepares first hand. I have referred him to my friends who are realtors. Many have used his services and reports that their clients are very grateful for the information he supplies about the properties they are purchasing. Would definitely recommend him to all my friends who are in the process of looking for a home.

Joe responded quickly to our call, made time to come and inspect the Condo when we could be present. He was very thorough and walked us thru the inspection helping us to understand what he was seeing. Joe brought peace of mind to our purchase process.

We recently had a home inspection done by Shane Baker, employee of The San Diego Home Inspections. Shane was professional, thorough and on time. His attention to detail was remarkable and did not rush to get through the job but took his time and made sure I received detailed information with pictures on what the problems were in the home. He also explained the meaning of each area that needed attention for safety concerns because as a women I do not understand the language at times. I will definitely use Shane Baker again if I need a home inspection! FYI the price was very reasonable compared to a home inspection I got three years ago when we sold our home. Not to mention Shane was honest and hard working.
P. S. He’s also cute:) ha

As a real estate agent in San Diego my clients often ask me who to use to do their home inspection. The only person I ever recommend is Joe Romeo with San Diego Home Inspections. Joe is thorough, quick, honest, punctual and knows what he is talking about. His reports are easy to read and understand. Thank you Joe for doing such a great job for my customers!

I’ve been using San Diego Home Inspection on most of my Real Estate transactions. I recommend Joe to all my clients. I am so impressed with his reports and the quality of the digital snap shots that he takes. My clients feel at ease everytime he prforms an inspection. He does an excellent job and very detailed.

I see a lot of inspection reports when I am giving estimates to home owners buying or selling a home. Joe Romeo gives a thorough report That not only makes the home owner aware of important repairs needed, but also supplies a clear report with photos, making it easier for the contractor who gets to come in and fix everything. He is one of the few inspectors who actually has a construction background, so he knows what he is talking about.

We recently purchased a home in Normal Heights and Joe was the home inspector our real estate agent recommended. I must say that we were very pleased with the quality of the home inspection Joe performed. He was thorough & detail-​oriented (which is definitely what you want when making a large purchase like a home). He was friendly & answered all our questions on site, and was available via phone & email as well.
We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a thorough home inspection.
