Big Moose Inspection was recommended to us by our real estate agent for an inspection before we closed on a house purchase. We ordered the inspection on a Tuesday afternoon and had the very thorough report with many pictures, by Friday. Very good, very fast, very friendly to work with, very glad we hired them.
I arrived at the end to have Tom give me a summary and he walked me thru thru this 100yo house, what he found and what the priorities of repairs he suggested and a couple DYI fixes that I could easily do. You will be 100% satisfied with the service he provides.
Used Big Moose Home Inspections prior to purchasing a vacation home on Drummond Island. John was extremely thorough going over the home.

Prior to purchasing a home, Tom Ruemenapp of Big Moose Home Inspections, conducted a thorough review of the exterior and interior of the home.

They saved me from making a costly purchase, and I’m forever grateful for their care and due diligence. Overall I’m a happy and repeat customer to them!
Bob was great to work with. He let me ask questions, he was thorough and very professional. I appreciated his initial look over. Then we started outside. We circle the home first one direction then reversed course to view from the opposite direction. I had the report that evening.
Very responsive. They had difficulty finding the septic tank (*should have been identified by the seller) and once the seller mapped out the location of the tank (under the deck!) Big Moose went directly out and had a report in my email in a matter of hours. The inspector allowed us to ask many questions and was very helpful.

Our expectations were exceeded with our inspection, Derck went above and beyond.
My husband and I hired Big Moose not once, but twice to perform home inspections for us. The first house wound up having a septic issue that was brought to our attention by Dean. When we found another house we liked even more, I called Big Moose again, was given the 50% discount, and was also given a number of other discounts based on the promotions they were running that I had been unaware of, including a free wood-eating insect inspection. Both Dean and Tom did a phenomenal job each time and explained their findings as they were going through the house with us, instead of making us wait for the official report. When the report did arrive, it was easy to read and concise and allowed us to negotiate further with the seller.

The office was helpful whenever we had questions, and they were able to schedule us very quickly.

We’ve just recently had a home inspection done by Big Moose. Highly recommend this company. Our inspection lasted for 4 hours and was performed by a very knowledgeable, friendly gentleman named Thomas. He took the time to answer ALL our questions and was extremely thorough in every aspect of the inspection. Excellent customer service right from the start with the very helpful women (Ruth and Debbie) in the office.
Great honest people.
It was so quick and easy to schedule my home inspection. Our home inspector (Jim) went above and beyond for us. I am very pleased with the job he did.
The report was detailed and covered all areas to include minor problems or issues.
The inspectors were extremely thorough. I received my reports promptly and am pleased with the scope of the information provided. Knowing the potential issues I may have from the start is invaluable.
Rick was great! Quick, very nice, and professional.
I’d like to thank Dean Fudaley for his inspection of the house we are attempting to buy. His knowledge and insight into the many systems in the house were greatly helpful in deciding whether or not to follow through with our purchase. It helped settle some questions we had regarding the electrical and heating systems and brought to light some other areas we needed to keep in mind for future updates and repairs.
Professional and very thorough. He took his time and inspected everything.
I dealt with Big Moose on the selling side and the buying side. Great staff and very polite, efficient inspectors. Very prompt return of reports so the deals could move along.
Very friendly and courteous inspector. Answered all my questions and explained many of his findings.
Even with living out of state, Big Moose was easy to work with. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an inspection.
Rick, our inspector, was extremely knowledgeable, professional and personable. He showed up at the scheduled time and was able to thoroughly answer any questions we had. Very polite and courteous!
Was very efficient and worked with us when the seller on the house we had inspected did not have the septic tank exposed on the right day.
They were very thorough!
Big Moose provided very professional and friendly service.
Our inspector not only brought all of the appropriate gear to inspect during the winter but was very thorough in his inspection. He reached many places in, under, and above the house that were very difficult to reach. His extra effort and willingness to complete a great inspection helped us to make a sound decision on the purchase of a house.
Very happy with the service, very friendly, very professional!
The scheduling was prompt. The office staff gave a detailed explanation of what to expect. The inspector (Derck) was awesome. He was knowledgeable, very thorough and professional….and he arrived at the appointed time for the inspection. I would recommend Big Moose to anyone in need of a first rate home inspection. Thank you for your service!
It was easy to book them, and they were prompt and on time. Chris was really great to work with and very thorough! He allowed me to walk around with him, ask questions, and provided great insight. The report was timely and equally thorough. I really liked how they used photos to illustrate their points. I highly recommend them if you are considering them!
Home inspection and the testing was comprehensive and detail orientated! Through no fault of their own, we had a test sample damaged in shipping, they were quick to notify us and remedy the situation.
Great experience and very thorough.
They were extremely thorough and answered all of our questions. We received our reports within the time frame they said we would.
Explained any and every concern, very personal. I would recommend this company to anyone.
Great experience with Big Moose home inspection! My home inspector was very nice and answered all questions that I had along the way.
We are extremely happy with the inspection and the professionalism of our inspector (Bob B). Not only did he find concerns, large and small, but he also explained them and even worked with the homeowner. It is great to find all the items but to have the ability to point them to the homeowner in a way that is positive and doesn’t make the seller mad. Bob was a true Pro!!!!!
Terry inspected 3 houses for us before we found the right one. He is reliable, patient, honest, and great at his job. This is my first house, and as someone who does not know much about houses, I appreciated that he took the time to explain every little detail to me so I would be able to make the right decisions. After each inspection, I got the report back the next day.
Very professional, answered all my questions and checked into some items that concerned me.
Jim was extremely thorough and explained numerous items that we would have not noticed. Excellent process from beginning to end including everything from scheduling to payment online.
Was very pleased by the professionalism and degree of detail. The final report was very encompassing and easy to read! highly Recommend
Very easy to schedule an appointment, friendly staff on the phone, friendly guys that came to the cottage we were having inspected, they were very thorough, walked us through their checklist and explained the process.
The inspector was knowledgeable and thorough, they were quick to get me the report and the ladies in the office were very nice and easy to work with.
Big Moose is a very professional organization. When you call, you get immediate professional assistance from someone who will coordinate with staff and schedule your inspection while you are still on the phone. Our inspector was Chris Barnes and he was very pleasant and totally professional. His expertise was apparent and he was all over the place, on the roof, in the crawl space, in the attic, everywhere. He did not rest. He followed up with a detailed report with photographs and arrows showing his findings but he also explained and showed what was going to be in the report as he went through the inspection process. I am glad I used Big Moose, I feel like this was the best I could have found and would not hesitate to recommend this organization.
The staff was on time. He offered helpful tips and explained things clearly.
Chris was very thorough pointed out the things that should be fixed right away and things that could be fixed over time.
Very thorough. Friendly and helpful staff.
Fast, courteous and efficient! Couldn’t ask for more!
I was very impressed with Rick. He was very thorough and informative.
They were extremely thorough and documented everything with photos. They issued results ahead of schedule. The money spent was well worth the peace of mind knowing that trained professionals did a thorough inspection.
The entire process from scheduling the inspection, to requesting issues discovered during the inspection to be addressed by the sellers, was extremely simple.
I would recommend them in the future. The issues I had after the inspection were promptly addressed by the company.
They went out of their way and above and beyond to meet a special request. The final report was so detailed and thorough. Very impressed. Will absolutely use them again and recommend them to anyone needing an inspection.
Our inspector Chris was wonderful. He took his time and went over the home we’re buying very thoroughly. He was very courteous and answered our questions professionally. I would highly recommend them to everyone.
We live out of state so we couldn’t be present. Big Moose Home Inspections went above and beyond to make sure the home was great on our behalf. We feel very confident with our purchase thanks to them!
Very happy with the inspection.
Excellent, friendly, & prompt service from the initial call to the office and follow-up with Jackie Busch to the full, very thorough inspections and report by John Proulx, and further follow-through by Ruth Bird. Plus, a thank you e-mail from Tom Ruemenapp. I highly recommend Big Moose Home Inspections.
Excellent service, very responsive staff, timely on receiving your documents. Nice to receive electronic copies.
They explained everything well so we could understand. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
This company is great. Especially great was the inspector Chris Barnes. His attention to detail and a great attitude, despite the less than ideal conditions, made me very comfortable. I will be requesting him by name any time I need anything going forward and recommending 100% of the time to others. Cannot say enough great things about him and the company.
Super friendly office staff and Tom was great!
Very friendly – went above and beyond to make sure I understood the home inspection process. Very detailed report. Highly recommend them!
Very thorough. It took just over 2.5 hours to inspect an 840 square foot cabin. I’m not complaining in any way. He looked at everything and took a bunch of pictures. I would hire again without thinking twice.
Thorough, fast, friendly.
Awesome people to work with from the first phone call to set up the inspection to the final report. Tom our inspector is the type of guy you want checking your property for you. He did not just give it the once over but got down and dirty with checking any potential problem.
The reviews tell it all. Our inspector, Chris, was extremely thorough, very professional, and the report we received was extensive.
After 2 bad experiences with home inspections, Big Moose inspections really turned it around for us. They were knowledgeable in working with our lender to find out our specific needs/requirements for our loan and were easy to schedule with. I recommend them to EVERYONE. You really do get what you pay for. Do not hire a cut-rate inspector, doing so ended up costing us more in the long run.
The staff was very friendly and helpful, from the moment I called to set up an inspection, to receiving the full report! They worked in a very timely manner and their pricing is so reasonable!
This was our second well and septic inspection on two separate properties. We had Terry perform both and he is a great guy. He is very professional and equally friendly. Reports are finished in a timely manner and.
What attracted us to them was their ability to inspect well and septic, electrical, collect all water tests and perform basic inspection of a home, all in one visit. I would like to thank Ruth who took my first call and made the phone experience a positive one. From start to finish, it was a breeze.
Very detailed and knowledgeable.
We purchased a home in Benzie County and had a great experience with Big Moose. Call them ASAP if you need an inspection done in any of the areas that they serve. They make everything SO EASY!! After having our originally scheduled inspection canceled at the last-minute by the seller, Derck (our inspector) made himself available on the following day, which was a Sunday.
He provided us with outstanding service and demonstrated a high level of expertise as an inspector.
Great and timely service with good communication. There were many older buildings on our property so it was a challenging inspection. We also really appreciate the detailed report with many pictures that we are going to share with our contractor.
Everything went according to plan. The inspection was very helpful.
I have used Big Moose twice. Both times the appointment process was very smooth. The inspectors are very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I like how they allowed me to walk with them through the inspection and answered all my questions and explained what they were looking for and pointed out issues both good and bad.
Bob the inspector was knowledgeable incredibly friendly and took the time to explain to me in layman’s terms issues to watch for in the future as well as safety devices, building structure and maintenance requirements that I had been overlooking which would add more life to my homes appliances I wasn’t aware of.
Tremendous ease of booking. They were great from start to finish. Will use them again.
Robert did my inspection and was very thorough, he found issues with a home I was going to purchase that was critical. Without his findings, I would have had a huge financial hit with the purchase of the home. He took the time to explain everything in detail and always answered my calls if I had additional questions.
Big Moose inspected my new home within 1 day of my initial call. The report is over 30 pages long with pictures of areas of concern mentioned in the report. What more could you ask for? They were referred to me both by my realtor as well as two other independent people in town.
I appreciated that they were willing to work around my schedule.
Had 2 inspections with the same guy. Very nice person, very knowledgeable on all areas of the home, not afraid of getting dirty in a crawl space.
I was very pleased with their professionalism and their response time!
They did a great job at doing a thorough job in a very timely matter!!
Everybody I interacted with was thorough and polite. John did a great job on the inspection. We discussed any issues and talked through possible solutions. Janet was great at setting up the appointment and accommodating within my time frame. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Honest and realistic expectations.
Big Moose was able to get my inspection done very quickly and were extremely thorough in their report which made the entire process that much easier.
Our inspector, Bob, was very thorough and walked us through every part of the inspection. They were extremely easy to schedule with and were able to fit us in in a short time frame. The report was ready before expected and was easy to read and very complete. Excellent company!!!!
I called after office hours and they got right back with me. I felt that they covered every aspect of the home and really gave us peace of mind when it came to purchasing our new home!
We were very pleased with Chris. He was extremely professional and very informative during the inspection of our new home. When we received our reports, they were all complete and accurate.
Excellent work done by Jim. Very complete and detailed. Even going as far as looking at things I had questions about. Very friendly guy.
I would and will recommend Jim and Big Moose to others who are looking for a home inspection team.
One inspector could do the home, well and septic and that was really convenient.
Bob is very thorough and explains issues very well.
John was polite, professional and knowledgeable. The report we received was straight forward and documented everything. We definitely would use Big Moose Inspections again!!!
Big Moose Home Inspections truly took the worry and stress out of this part of the home-buying process. We couldn’t ask for more because our Inspector Josh Witten went OVER AND ABOVE anything we could have asked, right down to his patience with our 4 year old who was full of questions and had each one patiently answered.
The staff was very friendly and responded very quickly when contacted. I was recommended to use Big Moose Home Inspections and I am glad that I did.
I was highly impressed with Big Moose Home Inspections from beginning to end. The office staff is courteous and helpful. The inspector was professional, thorough, and provided helpful hints.
Very efficient company. I was able to call after normal business hours which was nice. They set up the appointment very fast. The inspection was done on a Friday and I received my report on Sunday. I would use them again.
The staff was super helpful on the phone setting everything up. Dean was very thorough with his inspection of the house we were looking at. He was very knowledgable and was able to answer all my questions. All reports came very fast! I would definitely use them again!
One call sets up the process and they follow through with full documentation. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Big Moose did an excellent job on the review and I received the feedback promptly. I was there during part of the inspection and they took the time to explain certain findings to me. I would highly recommend Big Moose Home inspections.
From talking to the receptionist to getting the inspection done and paying the bill everything just went easy. Couldn’t ask for an easier transaction. The inspection was done very thorough and detailed. And in a timely manner. Very great experience
Big Moose did an excellent job from start to finish. All of the office associates were top-notch and communicated in a very professional manner.
The inspection was top notch and Jim was most thorough and knowledgeable and went the extra mile.
Unbelievably Great! We purchased a home in Michigan while living in Texas. Big Moose Home Inspection helped us get the job done. Dean Inspected it for us, kept us informed every step of the way, and he did the most thorough Inspection ever!! Peace of mind, affordable prices, and BEST online site we have ever experienced!
Thank you, thank you Dean!
The team helped me avoid a potential problem. Used them a week later to inspect another home.
Derck was very experienced, he took the time to answer all of our many many questions, was both professional and personable, and most importantly he went above and beyond to show us areas of concern, talk us through what to expect over the next 5 to 20 years, AND backed all of it up in an AMAZING written report! If we ever move again, I will certainly be going with Big Moose for my home inspection!
I’ve used Big Moose Inspection Service’s twice on potential investment properties I’m looking to purchase. Thanks to Big Moose they found issues that I wasn’t aware of which influenced my purchase. I recently purchased an investment property and Thank You Big Moose for the detailed report. I can share areas of the house that need to be repaired with a licensed contractor who will help repair the items found from the inspection report. I will definitely be using Big Moose Inspections in the future as I look to add a few more investment properties.
From scheduling to the actual inspection, everything went smoothly. The staff is friendly and good to work with. Our inspector was very thorough and wrote up an extremely comprehensive report. There was follow up after the inspection to make sure we were happy as well. We are very satisfied with Big Moose!
Chris did the inspection. He was great!!!
They were able to schedule my inspection within two days of my request. The inspector was knowledgeable, professional and conducted the most thorough inspection that I have ever seen. I will absolutely use them again, when needed, and will recommend to all my family and friends.
The service provided was invaluable. Easy to schedule, the report is concise.
Used Big Moose to inspect our new home in Traverse City, MI. Was very impressed with their thoroughness on inspection, quality of photos, an overall assessment of our home.
The inspector was very knowledgeable and friendly. He went through each item with me and helped me a lot to understand the house and its needs. Highly recommend!
Big Moose Home inspections were recommended by my realtors. However, I had a great experience using them. Their report was detailed and delivered quickly.
The staff was very helpful and kind. We were very surprised that the report was so detailed with pictures. Our inspector was very informative and thorough!
I can’t explain what an amazing job the inspector did on the home I am purchasing. I needed an inspection done the same day and Jackie found someone last minute to come to do an inspection. . Also, great price.
Our inspector was very thorough and provided peace of mind that what he was to inspect was done thoroughly and reported to us accurately. The firm was timely in providing their report, answering questions, etc. Office staff was friendly and professional when booking the inspection. Would highly recommend and use again.

We needed our inspection performed on a Saturday and they were very flexible in accommodating us.
I would definitely recommend Big Moose Home Inspections. This is our first home and we wanted to make sure everything was in good condition. The inspector was very thorough and I was really impressed with the photos and descriptions provided in the results.
The inspection on our newly purchased home was very thorough and the inspector was very informative. He checked out every appliance and all systems in the house. He inspected the roof and the crawlspace, and the outside of the home as well.
We recently had our new home inspected by Big Moose Home Inspections. We could not have been more pleased with the thoroughness of the inspection. The inspector was so polite & helpful.

I would & will recommend Big Moose to anyone who needs to have a home inspection. Great Job Big Moose & thank you so much!
It took 48 hours from the day I called until the day I had my inspection report in my hands. They were prompt, polite, and very patient with me.
We were recommended to Big Moose Home Inspections by a friend that had used the company before. We were making a large purchase and were very nervous about the prospect of buying the property. The inspector walked us through the home inspection and highlighted areas that were in need of repair. He was very thorough and delivered a great report the next day. I would recommend this company to anyone that was looking for a home inspection.
They were great. Would definitely use them again..
Our ReMax realtor recommended this company to do our home inspection. Buying a home is stressful enough; buying a home when you live 700 miles away is even more stressful. We were very pleased with Big Moose and Robert. Perhaps because of Big Moose’s reputation, the seller agreed to make *all* the repairs that we requested. The report was quite thorough and included color photos of areas of concern. I’m sure that these helped with the sellers’ decision to be agreeable!
We highly recommend this company for your own home inspection. Thanks, guys!
Not being able to be present for inspection, the office staff was very helpful and informative and very prompt. Report provided to us was very complete and explanations with pictures were clear and descriptive.
The Big Moose staff was extremely helpful from our first interaction. They were quick and very efficient. I will advise all friends and family to give them a call for any and all services. Thanks again Big Moose.
Service was prompt and excellent. The inspectors left nothing to doubt. They were friendly and very informative as I followed him everywhere he went and he fully informed me as we went along.
Easy to schedule with.
Thank you for taking the time to answer any questions and explain your findings.
They were able to get to the home and do there assessment incredibly quickly. They did a thorough walkthrough on both the home and septic. Once they were done they explained to me the issues they found. The reports were sent in a timely manner (2-3 days) with the water samples coming back in 6 days. I really liked how everything was online which makes things easy when having to share information.
Dean was very friendly and thorough. He discussed everything with us, the areas of concern as well as things that were positive.
They gave me a quick response and an accurate report of the property I am in the process of purchasing. I now have the peace of mind to continue this transaction. I highly recommend their services to anyone interested in purchasing a home.
Excellent inspection. Well qualified person
Our inspection was scheduled promptly and everyone at Big Moose is courteous and helpful. I met Dean for the inspection so that I could walk through it with him. He was systematic and thorough and willing to answer all my questions. I had a chance to see what things are checked and how he went about it and I learned a lot about the house we were buying.
They sent the report within a couple of days and it was very well done, denoting what was checked (or not) and what things should be addressed.
We were very satisfied with their service.
They were very thorough and did an excellent job
WOW! That is about all I can say about the home inspection I had done on a home I was buying. My inspector was super. I was so pleased with everything that he did. I was amazed at the written report, it told me everything I needed to know. A great big thank you for the fast and complete service.
My realtor gave me some suggestions on Home Inspectors to use and I called each one and listened to their sales pitch. I ultimately decided to go with Big Moose. The inspector was early which was awesome, we walked around the house together, he was incredibly knowledgeable. Took his time in areas that were important to me and pointed out things I wasn’t readily aware of.
Scheduling was quick and easy and the inspector was friendly and knowledgeable! Would definitely use them again in the future!

Big Moose inspected my parents new home and they were very pleased with the services provided. Big Moose was flexible, easy to work with, prompt, friendly and competent. We will gladly recommend your services to our friends and family.
From the first phone call I knew I was choosing Big Moose to do the inspection of my new house! The staff was very friendly and knew all the answers to the questions I asked. The inspection was done within days of when I put the order in and shortly after that I received the very detailed and thorough inspection report! I give the company an A+
He was a retired builder and I felt like he knew what he was doing. I was there when he did the inspection and I appreciated his appraisal of the quality of the workmanship of the condo and especially the remodeling the previous owner did. He also gave me a few suggestions to update, i.e. the smoke alarms are in working order but, time to replace them, for safety.
100% positive; on time, both for appointment and delivery of inspection. Willingly discussed findings, understood what to look for with the weather/age/water/lake related to the home. Glad Matt was the inspector.
After a recommendation, I decided to check them out, and found their staff to be very kind and knowledgeable. Thank you!
The company was recommended by my Realtor but I would not hesitate to recommend using Big Moose on any type of inspection.
My husband and I will soon be Michigan residents. Big Moose was recommended by our real estate agent to inspect the house we will be retiring to. The process was painless and the services were prompt and professional. The inspection report was thorough and easy to understand.
Fingers crossed, we’ll be in our new house very soon.
I had a choice between 3 inspection companies. I am glad I picked Big Moose based on their time in the business and other reviews. Bob and I crawled all over my potential new home, his knowledge of all the home systems from heating, plumbing, electrical, and basic constructions was top notch. I feel comfortable with the items he did point out that needed some attention as well as the quality of construction.
They were very detailed and took time to explain everything to us! We would highly recommend them!
The inspector was very informative and made himself available even after the inspection was done. They offered a great price and I recommend their service home inspection is the way to go.
I purchased a home in 2007 and used Big Moose because they came highly recommended. Today 2016 their services are still second to none. The inspectors are knowledgeable, professional, and very thorough with the report. As a prospective homeowner they put my mind at ease showing you everything they find.
Really fast and professional service!
Top of the line services, professional, prompt, and very affordable. Protect your investments.
As a recommendation from our realtor, I did some research and called Big Moose to do our inspection. We could not be present for inspection, so they were able to coordinate with our realtor and conduct the inspection. The office staff was very helpful and informative and very prompt. The report provided to us was very complete with detailed explanations, pictures were clear and descriptive.
I recently had Big Moose inspect a house that I was interested in. I have a fair amount of construction in my past, but had to have the inspection for the loan I was getting. I allowed the inspector to go about his business and inspect the home as he would normally without myself interfering or telling him about my past in construction. The inspector was knowledgeable in every aspect of the home, from the current codes to the well and septic.
Prompt & thorough inspection.
We used Big Moose before we bought our house. They were very thorough and knowledgable.
I was very pleased. The inspector was on time and was 100% professional but at the same time, very friendly.
Received a very thorough inspection report the very next day. I highly recommended them
I felt the inspector was very honest with me in pointing out the things he found. He sent me a report that I could easily understand; taking photos as necessary to show me exactly what he was talking about. The report was very professionally prepared for me and I feel like I really do know my new home inside and out. It was really worth the price for the peace of mind I now have with my new home.
Very friendly, very thorough…overall very satisfied with Big Moose Home Inspections.
First time home buyer here. Paid for the inspection of my new house. Dean from Big Moose showed up earlier as he was in the area. He did the entire outside of the house inspection and then we both walked through together for the inside inspection. He educated me on a lot of things from roofing, plumbing, electrical, heating, etc. He did an excellent, thorough job. I’m not sure if you can request certain inspectors but Dean did an awesome job.
Our realtor recommended Big Moose to us for inspection of our recently purchased home. They were timely and thorough.
The inspection was thorough and the report was detailed and well-written.
From the first call there was no doubt why Big Moose had been highly recommended. They scheduled and conducted a thorough inspection quickly.
They were timely and affordable. The inspector did a thorough job and I received the report less than 48 hours later. Thank you!
I set an appointment on a Saturday, Derck came out on Monday, and that night I had the finished report. Derck walked me through everything in the house, pointing out and explaining areas of concern, offering suggestions on improving things, and documenting everything I needed.
Involved me in the inspection process and explained all of his findings in great detail. The report was very detailed and was received in a timely manner. Would use them again in the future and recommend 100%!
I was referred to a Big Moose by my realtor. I called them and had a choice of available appointments within my time deadline. The support staff on the phone was friendly and professional and gave an exact description of what to expect.
They inspected our home very thoroughly, treated us great & had our report back to us in less than 24 hours!
Recently contacted Big Moose Home Inspections to perform an inspection on a piece of property we are attempting to purchase. The inspection report was very detailed covering all aspects of the building. It contained descriptions as well as photos of the areas being inspected. Would recommend this company to perform your pre-purchase inspection.
When I called to make my appointment with Big Moose the receptionist was very friendly and helpful. When it was time for my appointment Chris Barnes was my inspector, he was very helpful in answering all of my husband’s questions. The inspection report is very detailed and easy to follow.
I liked how thoroughly they inspected the property! Which helped us to get a better price!!!
The employees of Big Moose Home inspections made the inspection process a great experience for us. We learned a lot about home maintenance and their report was outstanding.
Derk was a fantastic home inspector. I highly recommend them.
Big Moose came out the next week and was able to do the well, septic and house inspection all in the same day. Saving me time and money. The inspector came out and did a thorough inspection.
Dean was very professional and also very engaging throughout the inspection. He made a lot of suggestions on how to not only make the home more efficient, but also to increase its value. Dean was very thorough and took extra time to explain the process to me.
I would highly recommend Big Moose Home Inspections to anyone who is looking for a high quality home inspection. The report contains all explanations and recommendations. On top of that, pictures and summaries are provided in the report that are taken during the inspection.
I had a home inspection done along with a well and septic inspection. Very satisfied with the thorough inspection that was done and the informative report with pictures that I received.
Very friendly customer service. They worked with us to accommodate our schedule. The inspector was very knowledgeable & did a great job. The report was completed quickly. I would definitely recommend Big Moose Home Inspections to anyone needing their services!
I’m buying a new home and was looking for someone to do my home, well, and septic inspection. I had called several places Big Moose was the first company that I actually talked to someone. The person who answered the phone was very friendly and helpful and they made my appointment ASAP. Highly satisfied with the service.
I just used Big Moose for the second time in 3 years – and again their service and quality of work was simply outstanding. The report they put together is extremely detailed and thorough.
Dean was exceptionally knowledgeable for just about everything he examined! He explained to me in detail all the various functions of the components of systems he was checking…he really knows his stuff! It sure was nice to be able to talk Shop with somebody as personable, congenial and knowledgeable as Dean…it brought me back to the old day. I’ll use them over and over again – all home buyers in the area should too!!!
We used Big Moose for two home inspections recently and had two different inspectors – both were very professional and experienced. The inspections were thorough with a detailed report to follow. Highly recommend them!
We purchased a summer cottage in Northern Michigan and had no idea about area house inspectors. I googled and found Big Moose in my search. I am always skeptical of unrecommended service. I have to say Big Moose not only met my requirements but surpassed it. The inspector was on time, he spent a long time inspecting the house and gave us a verbal description of his findings. I would highly recommend Big Moose Home Inspections.
Very informative and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend.
Upon the recommendation of our real estate agent we employed Big Moose Home Inspections with the task of inspecting our new home in May of 2015. I called their 800 number and talked to Josh to set up the inspection. Right away I was impressed with his professionalism and knowledge. The inspection was setup with only a couple days notice which was also a pleasant surprise. Both my wife and I were present during the inspection and we met with Tom at the property. Tom was VERY knowledgeable and helpful during the entire process. Even though I asked a lot of questions, and probably made a pest of myself, Tom fielded my many questions with enthusiasm and helpful answers. The report was very detailed, accurate, and easy to understand. If I purchase another home I will certainly use Big Moose again.
As a first time home buyer, my fiancé and I were VERY pleased with the services provided by Big Moose Home Inspections. After a recommendation and some research, I spoke with Jackie on the phone and knew there wasn’t a better option. She was SO natural on the phone, took care of us, and even explained some of the details of a home inspection! I’ll always recommend Big Moose for their sincerity, incredibly thorough work, organized reporting and professionalism.
Chris was very thorough in examining all features of our home. Although for the most part the concerns were minor, it was reassuring to us that they were found and pointed out so we had all the available information. Very satisfied with Chris and the service provided by the company.
I found my inspector to be very helpful and answered any questions I had. He also explained what he was doing and what he was finding as he went along. Overall,

Big Moose did a great job inspecting our potential house for defects. They found issues with vents on the roof, wiring in the basement, and the front deck. They provided a very thorough report in ~ 24 hours.
The Big Moose inspector was competent and explained to me exactly what he was looking for at each step of the inspection. He alerted me of a serious problem that needed to be resolved before proceeding with the home sale. Now I know to never buy a home without an inspection. Although I have been warned about hiring an inspector recommended by a seller’s agent, I have no doubt Big Moose was working with my interest foremost, and I recommend them to any home buyer in their area of operation.
Our inspector, Matt, was prompt, courteous, and very thorough. Scheduling the inspection was easy.
They helped us make an almost immediate appointment, and our inspector John was thorough, informative, helpful, and had a lot of useful tips and information as he performed our inspection. Our inspection report was available early the next day, and they even sent water samples out for testing without being asked. Extremely thorough, positive experience, I would highly recommend them.
They were very thorough, explained every step, and gave a timely report which greatly aided in my home purchase. I would strongly recommend them to anyone who needs a home inspection.
Would highly recommend! Amazing customer service throughout the whole process!!!
Wow. The inspector was not only on time but early and had gotten a jump on the inspection and could show me several things he had already assessed by the time I arrived.
He was very helpful in showing me concerns I had not anticipated and educated me well on repairs that will empower me to go on to make sound decisions as I contemplate how best to improve the property.
True to form, the report serves as a fantastic template for future improvements as well as guidance on closing the home sale, and am I glad I made you my first call!
They were very easy to work with, seemed very knowledgeable, gave good advice.
I liked the fact that the report was detailed and explicit in what needed to be corrected. It was provided to me quickly so that I could move forward with the purchase.
Met with the inspector at the appointed time and shadowed him for most of the inspection. He was very professional and did a complete run-thru of all the mechanics and integrity of the home. The final report was concise and complete with photos and comments on all everything inspected. Well worth the cost of inspection services.
I would highly recommend.
They didn’t keep anything from me, they were straight to the point and helpful about repairs that should be done.
I was very satisfied with the inspection, I was also happy with how professionally they handled everything.

Quick Inspection. The internet access system for getting your inspection was a wonderful surprise. This is a company in touch with technology and how to make it easier for people through the entire process. Being out of state at the time, the online inspection document with photos and documents made me feel like I was there. Highly recommended.
We had Big Moose Home Inspections do the inspection on the home we are buying. They called us as soon as the inspection was completed with a verbal overview. The written report was sent to us within 24 hours. Each person we were in contact with was very polite and professional. We highly recommend this company to anyone who needs a home inspector.
From setting up the appointment to the final report, everything was a very smooth process. I would recommend them to everyone!

Excellent service, very friendly staff, and very thorough inspection! The price was very affordable as well! All in all great service and would use them again in a heart beat!
The inspection was done on time, and within the exact time estimates Big Moose had given us. Having spent several years as a volunteer firefighter, I was familiar with many things to look for, but he found several items that I missed. Very happy with the inspection. Well worth it.
