As a REALTOR in the area, I get to see Spencer a lot. He's a down to earth guy who lives in the area, supports his fellow agents, but keeps fair to everyone. He does not pick favorites and does not omit or include things in an inspection because he's told to. You can count on Spencer to be extremely detailed, continue to educate himself, and also keep it real. He also charges a fair rate, is easy to schedule, and returns his reports around fast. And if you ever have any questions about your report, he's easy to get a hold of on the phone. Keep being you, Spencer

Very happy with my home inspection experience. Spencer was extremely responsive and thorough. He got me a very detailed report with lots of reference photos within hours of the inspection. He even provided vendor suggestions for the recommended repairs. Highly recommended.

Thorough, detailed, Spencer took his time to examine every aspect of the home he inspected for us. Identified several issues that we successfully addressed with the sellers resulting in a significant concession. Worth every penny!

Spencer is both knowledgeable and approachable. He clearly understands his work and takes the time to thoroughly inspect every part of the building. If you have any questions, he explains everything clearly and thoughtfully, never rushing to conclusions. I highly recommend him.

Spencer was as professional, courteous, and patient as I could have hoped for. I have had dozens of home inspections while living in Fl for the last 23 years. This inspection ranks one of the best.Just moved to Hood River this year. I could not have asked for more from Spencer. He mad two additional trips to the house we are buying and was so accommodating. Highly recommended by my real estate agent,Vanessa from Remax. Now I see why.

Spencer was thorough on the inspection of the duplex I was purchasing. I was on site and we discussed (he explained) what was age related and any safety issues. Would definitely use again!

Spencer was great. Very personable, did a thorough inspection for us and gave us a very detailed verbal report and also a complete report via email. The results of his inspection revealed some dangerous conditions in the home, several structural issues which together resulted in us voiding the purchase agreement because of the high costs that would have been incurred to bring the home up to today's safety standards and building codes. We will be calling him for our next home inspection, as we are still looking to buy.

Spencer, owner of High Prairie Home Inspections, did the home inspection of the home (and outbuilding) we are in the process of buying. Not only is he efficient and thorough, but he is also very friendly and communicative. After he completed the inspection he reviewed the entire report with me in person, showed me pictures of potential issues, and provided explanations when needed. I recommend Spence without any reservations.

High Prairie and Spencer were fantastic! They were the inspector on the house we were selling and were so thorough, we decided to use them for our new home. And they didn’t disappoint! I will definitely recommend them to everyone.

Spencer was a pleasure to meet and he was extremely thorough with the inspection. I had questions and didn’t feel dumb asking him about small details. He took the time to show me how the water well pump works and I would highly recommend this company to anyone ! Thank you !!!

We are so happy we chose Spencer to do our home inspection! He was professional, thorough, and answered all of our questions. We could tell he has years of experience and knew exactly what he was talking about. He delivered the inspection report back to us less than 24 hours later and I loved that we received such a detailed report with supporting photos. This is our first time buying a home and Spencer eased a lot of our anxiety regarding the home inspection. He also did a re-inspection after requested repairs were completed and that experience was just as great as the first time he visited the house. We will definitely be hiring Spencer for all of our future home inspections!

Matt Jordan

We have had the pleasure of using High Prairie Home inspections twice in the last year. The first inspection uncovered serious issues that were not apparent when we toured the home. Spencer saved us from and expensive nightmare!
Spencer's reports are prompt and thorough. They are very easy to read and understand. Scheduling was easy and Spencer is very responsive. I hope I do not have to buy another home anytime soon, but If I do, I will 100% be using High Prairie Home Inspections again.

Wow! My experience was great. Spencer answered the phone personally and articulated the home inspection process clearly and thoroughly. He had a professional and amiable demeanor. The business management software he uses sent me a calendar confirmation and reminder of the planned visit, and allowed me to pay for the home inspection online and receive a digital invoice. He scheduled a post-inspection phone call to talk with me about his findings before he sent over the official report. The report itself was well-organized and easy to interpret for minor, medium, and major issues. His report led to our home sellers addressing the two most important issues before closing, so we won't have those surprises (or expenses) down the line.

We really enjoyed working with Spencer from High Prairie Home Inspections. He was knowledgeable, answered all of our questions and provided a comprehensive report at the end. We would recommend his services to family and friends!

Spencer is the best home inspector we have had and this is our 7th buying experience. We were not able to be present for the inspection (buying from Alaska) and were grateful for his incredible communication - professional and personable and the platform he uses to request payment and to obtain report is very easy to use. His report is the most thorough, organized, and detailed I’ve seen. Pictures AND even video clips when necessary. And the report was amazingly prompt. The sellers wanted a 10 day inspection period and Spencer made it happen. He was very responsive after inspection for any questions we had. He did not push us to do add-ons, but explained recommendations objectively in easy to understand terms and let us decide. He is an honest, hard-working, all around kind person to work with. We highly recommend him!

We had Spencer come out and do a home inspection for a new house that were were looking at buying. Spencer was very thorough, professional and knowledgeable. He took the time to walk me though all the items he found at the end of the inspection and was able to answer any questions that I had.

Spencer goes over every home he inspects with meticulous care. We can move into our new home feeling confident that it has been thoroughly checked over by a professional!

Spencer at High Prairie was fantastic for our home inspection. He was super thorough, available both during and after the inspection to answer questions, and his report was the easiest to use of any inspection I’ve ever seen. Don’t look elsewhere for an inspection!

Excellent communication and attention to detail. I needed a home inspection while living out of state and this could not have been more seamless. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a thorough, honest inspection

Kaylie Ellis

Spencer was great to work with. He was detailed and thorough with the inspection of the home I'm purchasing. He answered all my questions and sent a detailed report later the same day. As I'm not familiar with many of inner workings and structures of a house, I appreciated the pictures and descriptions in the report. I would highly recommend High Prairie Home Inspections.

Terry Kindschuh

Spencer came to the inspection prepared, with good test equipment, and a well thought out plan and order of inspection.
Once completed we walked each room with explanation of deficiencies.
The follow up report was well documented with photos and text.
A job well done

Spencer was extremely easy to work with and very quick to get our inspection and certification done. Although other companies weren’t willing to travel to our remote home, Spencer had no problem getting to us extremely fast!

We enjoyed using this business for our inspection as Spencer is very knowledgeable and friendly! He was thorough and took time to explain the details to us, made sure all our questions were answered, and is responsive. We will definitely use Spencer for any future inspections we have!

Rebecca Grable

Spencer was AWESOME! He was very professional and made sure to communicate anything with us that he came across while answering our many questions. He made a professional but relaxed feeling to the inspection which was very much needed with how stressful the home buying processcan be. I will use him for any future inspection needs. 5/5 stars in my book!

Spencer was awesome got on the job very quick and was very thorough. Followed up more than once and answered any question I had about the report!!

Couldn’t recommend Spencer from High Prairie Home Inspections enough. As a professional Realtor, I have attended countless home inspections. This being my home purchase, I was extremely pleased with his knowledge of home structures and local building codes.
He also provided me with a sewer scope inspection and manufactured home foundation certification for convenient ‘one-stop shopping’.
When the underwriter for the loan requested an additional certification at the last minute, Spenser quickly located and scheduled a qualified professional to get the certificate. Because of his outstanding customer service, I was able to close and move in my new home without delay.

I highly recommend High Prairie Home Inspections if you need a home inspection.

Spencer is a great inspector to work with. He did a very thorough job going through the home, and provided a very detailed report. He also walked us through the house at the end of the inspection and showed us anything he was concerned about. He is a very friendly guy, and has also been very responsive to any questions we've had after we received the report. I can't recommend him enough!

Spencer took his time with the inspection so that he could cover every aspect of the process, and he answered questions clearly and in detail. I especially appreciated that if he didn't know the answer to a question that was outside his expertise, he'd be up front about it, rather than making something up. His report was clear, concise, and presented in an easy to use online tool, and he was easily reachable for follow up questions during the inspection window. Thanks!

I had to put “good quality” in the remarks but that is a misrepresentation. Spencer the owner is Great Quality. We had a home inspected by him and he is extremely professional, thorough and very easy to work with throughout the inspection process. He did a fantastic job explaining in easy to understand terms what he was seeing, and what actions we should take. I would say he went above and beyond his duties. I was extremely impressed my the way he took time to review each part of the process and answer our questions ( I had many) in a very concise and direct no nonsense way that was very considerate and polite to us as new buyers. Recommend him 100%

It’s important to get an home inspection when you’re buying a house. You are usually already stressed as the inventory is limited and the prices are unreal. But using High Prairie Home Inspection was the easiest part of our process. He is extremely detailed, and trustworthy. His reports are easy to read.
Hopefully I won’t have to purchase another home but if I do he would be the inspector I would call every time

Sam Henderson

Spencer did a very thorough job and even doubled back to check something that wasn't fully accessible on the first pass. He was extremely friendly while going over the results with me and I felt there was both great rapport and that he wanted to ensure we fully understood the results. Top notch.

Spencer was the best! Was clear about the level of need/priority. On time, time efficient, just all around the best.

Spencer is fantastic! We have worked together multiple times now and I appreciate so many things about him. First of all, Spencer has a flexible schedule, which is really appreciated in the real estate transaction process. Second, Spencer is so kind and patient. I’ve had clients who want to be present for the whole inspection (which can slow things way down for Spencer), but he is super patient and kind and willing to let homebuyers get what THEY need from the process, even if it slows down the overall process. Finally, I just appreciate how Spencer is calm cool and collected when walking clients through the report—he is thorough but doesn’t scare the heck out of people, which I appreciate!

High Prairie Home Inspections (Spencer) recently completed the home inspection for our new place. He was prompt, communicative, extremely thorough in his inspection and in taking time to walk us through his findings and answering any questions we had about from his report. The turnaround time was amazing, and the comfort we felt having him look at our new home is so reassuring. I'd highly recommend Spencer and High Prairie to anyone out there needing a home inspection.

We Answer Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing questions
1. What is the average roof replacement cost for a residential home?
+-

The average roof replacement cost for a residential home typically ranges from $7,000 to $15,000, depending on factors such as roof size, chosen materials, roof pitch, and labor rates in your area. Premium materials or complex designs may increase the price.

2. How much does it usually cost to replace the roof of a commercial building?
+-

The cost to replace the roof of a commercial building typically ranges from $5 to $12 per square foot, depending on several factors such as roof size, material, labor rates, building type, and local code requirements.

3. What factors affect the overall roof repair cost?
+-

Several factors influence roof repair cost, including the extent of the damage, roof accessibility, material type, labor costs, and whether it’s a general repair or an emergency fix. Minor repairs can start around $150–$400, while major repairs may exceed $1,500.

4. What is the typical roof leak repair cost, and how is it calculated?
+-

Roof leak repair cost generally ranges from $300 to $800, depending on the size and location of the leak, the materials required, and labor intensity. Complex leaks involving structural repairs or interior damage will cost more.

5. What is the average flat roof repair cost for commercial buildings?

6. How much is the mobile home roof replacement cost compared to traditional homes?

Service questions
1. Should I stay home during roof replacement?
+-

It's not necessary to stay home during roof replacement. Roofing work is noisy and can cause vibrations inside the house, which might be uncomfortable. Most homeowners choose to leave during major parts of the project, but our team ensures safety and keeps you updated, whether you're home or not.

2. How long does roof replacement take?
+-

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?
+-

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
