What Makes us Better?

There are differences with home inspectors: training, experience, and effective communication are very important in this business.  What makes us different and better is:

Inspecting buildings since 1990: Home Check America is owned and operated by Denny McAuley, a certified - professional property inspector. Having twenty years experience in residential and commercial inspections, I know what to look for during an inspection. I apply this extensive professional experience combined with continuing education and a solid reporting system to ensure a thorough inspection and customer peace of mind.

We Train Longer  Six times longer actually than the average inspector. Most inspectors, including franchises, train for a week, then call themselves "certified".  Our inspectors also have college degrees as well as multiple courses in building construction and all important hands-on, field experience.  We are also certified members of the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI). Home Check is locally owned and operated, not a franchise. 

Color Digital Photos with every report. We were the first inspectors in the Chicagoland area to provide digital photos. Attorneys, mortgage brokers, insurance companies and agents love this feature because it communicates clearly and better to everyone involved, including the other party.

FREE LIVE Support & Scheduling  We answer our phones seven days a week with a real live person, not an answering machine or cell phone.  We provide clients with our email address for further assistance and will answer your questions concerning your home, FREE, for as long as you own your home.  We inspect homes seven days a week, including Sundays.  Most appointments can be confirmed just 24 hours in advance.

Guaranteed - NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST: Although I have an extensive background in inspections, I have no interest in fixing or repairing the defects or deficiencies uncovered during your inspection. I am a full time inspector, which allows me to remain objective and unbiased. My inspections are designed to educate and provide factual information from which you can make informed decisions.

Prompt, Courteous & Technologically Advanced: Barring unforseen traffic delays, we are always just a bit early, professionally dressed with equipment fully charged and ready to serve YOU.  In addition, we inspect the exterior of the building prior to your appointment to save you time.  Don't worry, we'll inform you of all conditions of the home at the conclusion of the inspection! We understand that you need answers to questions you may have about the home you want, so we use state-of-the-art equipment like; moisture detectors, laser thermomotor, gas leak sniffers, boroscopes, computers and much more.

Free Home Maintenance Book for clients of single family detached homes and townhouses. The book will help you maintain your investment and help you keep your kids safe in the home. You see, we care about you and your family's safety, we want to be your inspector for life.

In business since 1994.  Most new inspectors last about five months in this business, some have changed their company names several times.  Sometimes cut rate inspectors miss things. What happens if you have a question or their help six month later?  We have performed hundreds upon hundreds of inspections throughout the Chicagoland area.  We have never been sued, nor have we ever had an insurance claim, ever.
