Great experience as a potential home buyer. Due to the property size and age, Top Notch arrived with a team of three and delivered a very thorough and detail oriented inspection and report.
Every member of the team was friendly and approachable and clearly knowledgeable in the specific areas they were each inspecting. They were willing to stop at any moment to explain not only what they were looking at but also the method they were employing in their investigation.
At the end of the inspection they provided a quick summary of immediate findings with the rest to be detailed in the formal report. The report itself was also very thorough and easily navigable to drill down into specific details and also get a high level perspective of the entire assessment. Again, each member offered to answer any additional questions related to their specific portion of the inspection.
I was contacted regularly either by phone or email during the whole process for scheduling, followups, updates on remaining results, etc...
I can genuinely say this team helped me make the correct decision with regards to a potential home purchase. I will certainly be using their services again myself in the future, so I can honestly recommend to anyone else in the area.

Very disappointed with Top Notch Home Inspection. Despite their name, the service was far from top-notch. The inspector overlooked several critical issues, including roof damage and electrical problems, which ended up costing me a lot in repairs later. The report was generic and lacked detail, and when I reached out with concerns, I got little to no response. I trusted them to do a thorough job, but they completely let me down. I would not recommend their services.

Thank you Top Notch for scheduling our inspection so quickly. Alex was definitely Top Notch! Very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and walked us though what he would inspect and gave us a good over view at the end of inspection. Alex left us with confidence that we had a good understanding of safety concerns in the home as well as things we would want to address overtime and or keep an eye on. Appreciate the resources given also for professional companies for any needs we may have.

We needed a sewer camera inspection right away with short notice because our sewer camera was in the shop and Alex was able to come the next day. He was on time, knowledgeable and friendly. We needed to video link asap and he had it to me in just a couple hours! Highly recommend :)

I've used Top notch three times already for home inspections, and they are exactly that! Top Notch. Robbie and his team are very professional, and through in the inspection. He is also super chill and willing to answer questions that you have. They were easy to get a hold of when we had and hiccup in scheduling. Luckily we still got it done on time, but still knowing they would work with us was helpful. Report also comes out by the next day, nice interactive digital report with good pictures. For your home and building inspections I highly recommend Robbie and Top Notch.

I’ve used a few different inspection company’s for my real estate clients, after only 2 inspections with top notch they have quickly become my go to! Their response time is almost immediate, they are all very friendly and professional. There’s nothing worse than a grumpy inspector and you definitely won’t find that here! I can’t recommend them enough! :)

Top Notch is an exceptional company, Robbie the owner and his crew are very professional, timely, and did a very thorough job with my home inspection. Their report was very detailed, with clear pictures and descriptions. I would definitely recommend them to anyone or any real estate agent.

Ryan Pierce

We were working on buying our first home and selected Top Notch Home Inspection as a recommendation from our realtor. 3 really skilled, informative, and friendly inspectors came out to look at home. They inspected almost 2000 SF of home, attic, garage, and crawlspace in about 2 hours. We opted for the additional sewer scope as well. To no fault of their own, they couldn't get their camera fed through the complex sewer piping and didn't ask us to pay for that.

We got a very nice, detailed report from them through their website that evening and were able to continue on with our housing purchase because of it.

Kara Hansen

I felt that the team we had to come out to inspect our soon-to-be new home was a well oiled machine. They worked well together, had great communication to be sure nothing was overlooked, they were heartfelt and honest when talking to us about things they found of concern. Their report was well written and had good detail. I was very pleased and felt that the money was well worth it. People talk a lot of crap about home inspectors. Theses guys don't fit that bill, they were fantastic! 10/10

Keenan and Top Notch are the best Home Inspectors in Centralia/Chehalis. They have a great website that made it easy to schedule an appointment. I received feedback quickly prior to making the appointment when I was getting bids. Only one other company responded but they were not as responsive as I would expect from a business.
Keenan arrived early and started immediately, he let me know what his process is and where he starts. I stayed in the house while he did the outside inspection. When something was important, he brought it to my attention immediately. While inspecting the inside we could chat while he worked. He is a very friendly and helpful person.
After he finished his inspection, he let me know when I should expect the full report which was a couple hours after the inspection.
There was a serious issue that my agent contacted him about, she asked if he could come back out to take new photos once repaired and he said, yes. I'm not sure if I need to pay more for that or not.
They are an excellent company; I highly recommend Keenan and Top-Notch Home Inspections.

Listen up friends. Not everyday you come across cool people in life and when you do it is not forgotten. If you want a professional who’s willing to go and beyond the call of duty look no further. Call him up for your inspection needs and he will deliver. He has an eye for detail, very respectful and the detailed report was on my email before I knew it. To Robert and his team thank you. A very easy 5 star general in the field. Hats off sir and much appreciated

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.
