In business since 1997, Van Horn Home Inspection Services, Inc. offers thorough home inspections at competitive prices with integrity as the foremost commitment to clients. George Van Horn, the company owner and only employee, is a third generation construction veteran. Having worked over 20 years in industry for well known Fortune 500 companies as a Safety Engineer and Corporate Executive, George wanted to use his inspection skills and construction knowledge in a rewarding way to benefit others.
George is a long standing and dedicated member of ASHI (American Society of Home Inspectors), serving as a two-term Chapter President, A statewide board member, and as a National Representative for two terms. ASHI is the nations leading and most respected professional society for home inspection. Hiring an ASHI inspector is important since they require more inspections, more continuing education and the toughest exam to become a certified member. Don't be impressed by other home inspector organizations as they only require a simple online test, simply a State license, or just the dues.
Although now a full-time home inspector, George has been a home repair contractor and regularly volunteers for Habitat for Humanity and church mission trips. Recently he went to Mississippi for hurricane relief. He feels it keeps his skills up to date and he knows what happens behind the rotten wood.
Licensed in both North and South Carolina, inspections are conducted to meet both State and ASHI standards of practice. Reports are narrative type with digital pictures. Reports are emailed the next business day as well as being posted at a passworded Website so they can be retrieved "on-the-road" by busy clients or easily shared with other interested parties.
Payment by check or credit cards are accepted.
George does this full-time year round averaging over 400 plus inspections per year. Not affiliated with any real estate agent or referral (for a fee) agencies, George is honored to be listed on "Angies List" , a national homeowner referral service, and is a Better Business Bureau member.
