Reviews
I'm a realtor and my clients got into contract right before the holiday with a 7 days inspection contingency period. I reached out to Mike for a quote and confirm his availability. To my luck, he was super responsive, understanding and made himself available to do the inspection on Christmas Eve. He communicated on his way to the appointment and then returned a thorough report the same evening.
If you're looking for an inspector to team up with in Livermore and its surrounding areas, I highly recommend Mike. (Thanks Mike!)

We had Michael Chon for both of our home inspections, in North Bay. We are glad we did! He was very thorough, detail oriented, took pictures of everything, clearly explained & answered questions about potential property, sent his report w/in 24 hrs, is licensed, & friendly. I would highly recommend Michael Chon! By the way, he is reasonably priced.

So glad we found East bay home inspection. We are first time home buyers and needed an inspection done on short notice. Michael was able to accommodate and fit us into his schedule! He was very thorough with the inspection and answered any questions we had. He was able to get the report over to us the same day!! He has been so helpful and kind and we will definitely be recommending to others! Thanks Mike, we appreciate your great customer service!!
