Will was fantastic to work with, especially as first time home buyers! Super articulate, explained the process slowly, constantly asked if we had any questions, was not rushing to get it done. Would highly recommend!

I would 100% recommend this company to my friends or anyone else needing a home inspection. Easy to book, very professional and knowledgeable. I had my Dad come to the inspection, a carpenter/contractor for 45 years. Our inspector from Brick Kicker noted everything on his own my Dad would have noted if he did the inspection. Tom P was my inspector, very knowledgeable, professional and polite. I highly recommend requesting him for your inspection!

Rob was great at walking us through the process! I'm a visual person so seeing exactly what he was talking about and him taking us through part by part was so helpful for us! He also always asked to make sure we understood or if we had any questions. Great first experience!

The work was done quickly and professionally. Tanner was thoughtful, thorough, well-spoken, and knowledgeable. When having a home inspection, it is important to get the information, no matter whether it was good, bad, or ugly.

This is the second house that Mel has inspected for me and he always does a thorough job and provides lots of pictures, he really knows his stuff when it comes to building codes. I would highly recommend Mel if you are buying a home.

Working with Melvin was great. He was very detail oriented and he took the time to answer all of my questions during and after the inspection. I definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a quality inspection.

I recommend Rod very highly. His inspection report is very detailed and right to the point. He offers suggestions to help remedy the much smaller issues that can be done by ourselves over time. He is very concerned about his customers and wants to make sure his clients understand the issues that are serious or could be serious in the near future. He offers suggestions for these problems too. The photos he takes “ tell it all” and specifically show where the issues are inside or outside of the home. I feel very confident , after the inspection and the inspection report with pictures, that our home is safe and that huge worry can be crossed off of my list. Thank you Rod.

I am a first time home buyer and and this process can be overwhelming. My realtor gave me 3 contacts, but highly recommended Rod. So, I called him and we set up the appointment. There was a blackout for several days in Columbus, but thankfully the house had electricity long enough for him to do the inspection. Rod was very personable and explained everything as we went through the house. He answered all of my questions and offered his honest thoughts on the home. He even offered advice on how to fix problems and told me which things were more urgent than others. I would highly recommended him others.

Rod was very timely and nothing short of professional. He was thorough in his analysis and explained observations in an easy way for us to understand as first time homebuyers. I will recommend The BrickKicker to anyone in the central Ohio radius in need of a home inspector.

Working with Rod was great, he invited me on-site during the inspection and as a first time buyer this was invaluable to learn about the house and different systems on the house. Would 100% recommend him to anyone in need of an inspector.

To start, Brian accommodated all my schedule changes. When the day came he showed up on time. I had a lot of other work going on at the time and he effectively worked around all of that adjusting his normal routine. The report I got came very quickly and was also very thorough with pictures and descriptions including a summary of all the results. I'm very happy with the service and you will be too.

Brian did an amazing job on my inspection. He was prompt, responsive and extremely professional. I will be using him again for my 11 month warranty inspection.
