Impeccable Work

Valley Building Inspectors is without a doubt the most intensely thorough company I have ever had the pleasure of using. I have bought and sold many homes over the years and I have found VBI to quite literally be the best there is. They are extremely thorough and even more helpful and because of their impeccable work, they have helped me to dodge a huge bullet and not buy a quite potential money pit. Thank you so much. I will only be using your company for all future real estate transactions in the state of Az.

Detail Oriented

Great service and uber-professional. We used VBI for two home inspections in the Scottsdale area and they were the consummate professionals. Very detail oriented, customer friendly and truly cared about their work. Can't recommend them enough. They are our go-to guys from home inspections from now on.

Detailed & Helpful

Our inspector was very thorough, detailed and helpful in explaining his findings. I was out of state during the inspection so the inspector met with me via FaceTime. The office staff was friendly, flexible with scheduling and called to follow with a reminder.
