Testimonials

"Eric Holm inspected our circa 1850 Machias house last September. Aside from the wealth of information regarding the house's strengths and weaknesses (which we are currently using as a "blueprint" for home improvements), I was impressed by his knowledge of the architectural history of the houses in the area. Also, "as advertised," Eric has been more than willing to answer post-purchase questions and ways of achieving period-appropriate changes and improvements.
I believe it is also important to note that, six months into residency, I have yet to find anything Eric "missed." He has, so far, been spot-on regarding his analysis of all the systems and the structure of my home."

Hiring Eric Holm as your home inspector is, in my opinion, money well spent both as a decision-making tool (while you may still be in the "love is blind" phase of purchasing) and as a future pragmatic, aesthetic and/or historic resource."

"It was well done, extremely thorough and covered all the requirements needed for a home inspection plus more. He was a pleasure to work with and I would recommend Eric's home inspection company to anyone who needs this service. We look forward to retiring next year and look forward even more to move into our home. "

" Eric's inspections are totally thorough and professional, but most importantly, he is willing to work with you in finding practical solutions for potential problems."

"Eric understood that I was a first time home-buyer and that all of it was new to me! He was thorough and answered my questions as we went though every inch of the two homes that he inspected for me. After the inspection, he then provided me with very readable written feedback. He showed the concern of a neighbor, and he spent time explaining his observations in a way that helped me assess my prospective home and what I could expect in terms of my commitment to an antique cape. He also gave advice on how to approach repairs: what would need immediate attention and what could wait. I value his advice, and Eric remains available for my questions more than a year later!"

Holm Inspections provided a thorough assessment and detailed inspection report on the house we wanted to purchase.  As home buyers living in Florida at the time, it was reassuring to have Holm Inspections' professional evaluation before making such a big investment.

"We were very impressive with the inspection of a six-unit apartment building in Machias that we bought in 2004. We were living out of state when the home inspection occurred, and I was particularly impressed with Holm Inspection's ability to provide us with timely and accurate information from a distance. We continue to refer to the detailed write-up provided by Holm Inspections as we make decision about upgrades and capital improvements."
