Form & Function Home Inspection, LLC

Ben was fantastic, would HIGHLY recommend. Honest, to the point and extremely helpful explaining recommendations. will certainly recommend and use going forward. THANK YOU!!!

We hired this company to do our home inspection while trying to move to Arkansas. Our realtor recommended him. We were in a different state and could not be present.
That was in July 2022. We're having some home improvements done in our home right now. The contractor had to go in our crawlspace, and when he came back out, he gave me some horrible news. I realize it's been two years. I hired two separate companies to come out and look at all the damage. Both have said this has been going on for several years (much longer than the two years since we bought our home). We have $40,000.00 worth of damage from black mold! I reviewed the inspection; looking for photos or anything related to the damage in my report. He checked the ac unit in my backyard BUT DID NOT check it under my house. The condensation pump hasn't worked in years! All the water has been under my home. We've been getting sick, and have developed terrible allergies and headaches.
This all could have been avoided had we known prior to buying. We NEVER would have bought this house. All the photos that were taken were taken from just barely being in the crawlspace. Nowhere near the unit under the house.
Do NOT make the same mistake we made. Do not trust these reports. Go in behind the inspector. It could save you 40K!
And this doesn't include the mold specialist coming in to treat the house!!! This is just to replace all the duct work, the unit, value barrier (etc).
The state of Arkansas won't let you go after the inspector after a year since the inspection.

We were done dirty. Don't let this happen to you too

Ben did a great job with detail and photos for each area of the home. Very timely with getting an appointment and returning the report. Would recommend him to anyone.

Ben was very professional, timely and thorough. He was so kind and took the time to explain and go over all of our concerns! 100% recommend!!!

Ben Trotter with Form and Function Home Inspection LLC provided us a very thorough and practical inspection and report on our potential home purchase in the Fairfield Bay Area. His report was thorough, useful and prompt. I highly recommend Ben for your home inspection needs.

Great communication, professional, prompt and the report was thorough and impressively presented. Thank you! We would definitely recommend and use him again!

Loved working with Ben!
He was able to squeeze us in quickly and although we ran into a few bumps (no fault of his)
He was very patient and willing to work around the issues. We'll be happy to use Form and Function again in the future. :)

Ben Trotter's home inspections and reports are the best we've ever seen. They are thorough, detailed (with pictures), and easy to understand with recommendations understandably ranked. We've had two done and are very impressed with his work! Highly recommended!!

Ben did an amazing job with our inspection with our first home in the buying process, was very detailed and thorough, would definitely recommend and use him again in the future!!!!

Ben is a very knowlegable inspector. We have trusted Ben with two home purchases inspections in the last couple of years. He is freindly and provides a very detailed report after the inspection.

Ben is very thorough and I enjoyed working with him. I will use him again if I ever need another inspection done. He is very professional and walked me through all the items that need addressing. I felt very informed and much better after all he did.
Highly recommend.

Nothing negative to say about this company. Excellent service, very informative, reasonable rates, on time, friendly and approachable, and generally an all around positive experience.

All around great experience! Amazing value for the work done. Detailed report and I would highly recommend to anyone needing an extensive home inspection.

Ben is fantastic! He has done two inspections for me and both times were great. He knows he's stuff and he very nice. I will definitely use him again if I need another inspection done!

Ben is very thorough and professional. He’s done inspections for us on two houses and gave us peace of mind about each house and potentially saved us a boatload of money by identifying a few critical items that needed to be addressed by our sellers. Highly recommend.

Ben went above and beyond for us! I could not appreciate him more. We had a couple hiccups with scheduling and he was so kind and understanding. He was very professional, helpful and did such a wonderful job! Thank you Ben!

Very responsive and matter of fact, Ben was professional and polite and right to the point. Priced reasonable and was recommended and I am glad I called him. Gave a very thorough report and I was impressed the way the report was done. Thank you Ben

Ben answered my request for a quote quickly and with a fair price. He was able to come out to the property in one business day, which is amazing because the house is in a remote location. The quality of his work is remarkable because he takes many photos and records the details down to the finest minutiae. Delivery of the report was also expedient and I can't thank him enough because a home purchase is a big deal. Literally. I was doing this purchase remotely and relied on him 100% to ensure I'm making a good investment. He answered my phone calls and inquiries with the most courteous and prompt service.

I will call him again for future dealings and I recommend him to anyone who is wanting a good inspection from someone who is honest, reliable, and with great work ethic.

Ben was able to get my inspection scheduled timely and delivered a thorough, informative inspection report with pictures of everything. I'll certainly use Form & Function again in the future and couldn't have been more pleased with the service we received!

Great experience! Quick turn around, easy online access to documents, professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I couldn't ask for a better experience!

Ben was highly professional and detailed with his inspection. He walked through the house with me and explained the majority of the issues that he found, which was very helpful in giving me a good perspective. And Ben sent the full inspection report just a handful of hours after completing the house inspection. He did an overall fabulous job, and I'd highly recommend him.

I was super impressed with Ben. From first meeting him it is quite obvious that he cares a lot about what he is doing and takes it seriously. After he went over the details of what he found, I was even more confident in our decision to purchase the home. His report was EXTREMELY detailed. If he found a wobbly toilet, then I know that he didn't miss any big stuff! I would love to work with Ben and I will be recommending him to anyone I know that needs a home inspection done.

Ben was great to work with, very prompt and professional! You can tell he truly cares about doing a great and thorough job and being open and honest as well as answering any and all questions! I would definitely recommend him to anyone because this can be a scary experience buying a home and not knowing what hidden problems or concerns there could be and having someone you can truly trust is crucial! Thank you for being so great!

Extremely helpful when we had our house inspected. He willingly answered all questions that we had. Not only was the inspection thorough, but the inspection report that was sent to us was very in-depth. The report went through every aspect of our home and explained in detail if a repair was needed. I highly recommend this company.

I was not the most experienced person on buying a new home, but I would not recommend anybody else other than this guy! Absolutely the best!

Ben , went above and beyond with our home inspection. As soon to be new home owners he made everything seem easier on us. Ben gave a date and time and followed through. He called to tell us the highlights of his report then he finished up with an email of his whole report and pictures for our records. Ben did not stop there, I asked for extra help and his opinion on what would be his top request for seller to fix. I would recommend Form and Function Home Inspection to everyone for a top rated job by and honest person.

Thank you Ben for being part of our experience of becoming homeowners

All around great guy. Very thorough inspection that sends me into my home buying process with confidence. Great turnaround time on the report. Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area.

My husband and I were so impressed! He was helpful and answered all our questions. He got us scheduled in a timely manner (in our case VERY quick). I would suggest him to anyone and everyone looking to get an inspection! Very pleased! Great job!

Ben recently inspected a property for us, and did a great job. He is very knowledgeable and thorough, and his report was detailed and complete. Moreover, Ben is very personable and very willing to discuss or answer questions about anything related to the property. I have had more than a dozen home inspections done over the past 40+ years and Ben is among the best.

Form & Function was unquestionably comprehensive with my new home inspection. I highly recommend this company. They saved me approximately $2000 in future expenses by exposing some electrical and plumbing issues that I would not have noticed until it was too late. With their help I had proof to take back to my contractors to have the issues resolved.
