Integrity Matters....


"Choosing the right home inspector can be a difficult decision. Usually, you don't get to meet the inspector until after he or she has been hired. Furthermore, companies have varying qualifications, experience, reporting methods and pricing. A thorough inspection depends heavily on the inspector's own effort. If you honor us by permitting 2Patriots Property Inspection to inspect your home or investment property, I give my personal guarantee that our inspectors will give you our very best. "
-Bill Poole, Owner
