Thomas Francis / Home Inspector in Manlius, New York

Do you want a truly impartial and Comprehensive Home Inspection? Would you like a home inspector who can offer all the ancillary services you may need without having to hire additional service providers? If so, choose Tom Francis owner of "A Best Home Inspection" - Central New York's premier, full service home inspection and testing company. He has over 30 years hands on real experience, in all aspects of the building trades gained as a noncommissioned officer in the Army Engineers and from owning a general contracting company for over 20 years. He was the first NACHI certified home inspector in the Syracuse area and has performed over 2000 home inspections since 1997. We started our inspection company as a needed alternative prevalent "quickie" or "patsy" inspections that are done in just an hour or two and are more of a service to the realtors than the buyer... They don't look too close, not wanting to spoil the sale and their Realtors referrals. In contrast our typical inspection takes about three to four hours thoroughly evaluating all aspects of the home. We get into the crawl space and attic and walk the roof, most inspectors do not. Realtors and homeowners sometimes get upset we are at the home so long but we take our job seriously, to give you the best inspection we can so you can have peace of mind to make the right decisions and better negotiate in buying your home. We take time to answer your questions at the inspection and then spend another 3 to 4 hours and often more to finish the report and get it to you the same night or with-in 24 hours. Of course the Best Home Inspection requires the Best Inspection Report. Visit our website to see samples of our actual home inspection reports and compare them to our competition, and you will see there is no comparison. We deliver via email a private web link you can share with whomever you want to view the report online and you can save it as a PDF file or print hard copies. Our easy to navigate reports are clear, concise and professional averaging about 45 pages, with photos, detailed description of defects, repair and maintenance recommendations and safety and energy saving improvements; they are interactive including hyperlinks to in depth details where needed. We service the greater Syracuse area and all of central New York. You can schedule your inspection by calling Tom Francis at .
