Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value My husband and I are in the process of Purchasing our first home together. We didn't know anything about an inspection so we asked our amazing realtor for assistance and she recommended this company. We trust our realtor and she highly recommend this one and I see why. From the very first point of contact I was pointed to the website. Someone walked me through the process. He made every part of that experience smooth. A couple days before the inspector Walter B called to confirm. Once again I was met with a Calming voice assuring me he would do everything he was hired to do. He even kindly resent the agreements, advise me to read everything and share it with the lawyer. Today, the day of the inspection Walter arrived before us and started taking pictures. When we arrived he greeted us with a smile even though we arrived a couple minutes late. Walter talked us through every step of the inspection. He even made suggestions outside of the inspection. Walter is a professional and you can tell he loves what he does much like our realtor. Walter took the time to explain when we didn't understand. He never sounded frustrated with repeat answers. He just found a different way help us understand. Walter inspected every part of the home he had access to. I would say he is an expert. Spending time with Walter today made us feel like we are almost experts with regard to this house :-). The tips alone are worth so much. I recommend this company. Every person I came in contact with are consistently professional and kind. I appreciate excellent customer service and Safeway Home Inspection is a wonderful example. I'm truly satisfied and grateful for companies like this one that still care about the consumer and are experts of their profession.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness Mike from Safeway conducted our home inspection this past Saturday and was incredibly thorough. Despite the pouring rain, he took his time outside and even lent us a spare umbrella he brings for clients. Mike was extremely patient, making sure we had plenty of space to ask questions and for clarification as first-time buyers. We received our report promptly, that same day. Highly recommend.

Steve Verger and Safeway Inspection were an absolute pleasure to work with. They came highly recommended from our realtor as a preferred inspector for their clients. Safeway Inspections responsiveness and their online portal to capture reports and create checklists was user friendly. As for Steve, he was always just a text away and super responsive.

I definitely felt much more educated about the house and what to look out for as maintenance requirements come up through years of ownership. Highly recommend Safeway and Steve!
Positive: Professionalism We had the pleasure of working with Walt from Safeway as the inspector for our home.

Michael came to our future home for an inspection this past weekend . I was so scared and nervous about what this would entail. Within minutes of meeting Michael I felt at ease. He Kept it professional but a relaxed for me. We went through the entire property and he answered the million questions I asked , in depth as well. He helped me to not only know what are things I should be looking for with a property but he helped me to understand why to do each thing. It was extremely knowledgeable for me . I couldn’t have asked for a better inspector. I highly recommend this company.
Steve was extremely knowledgeable and thorough in his inspection of our house. 10/10
Great professional service, I highly recommend.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Mike from Safeway came out to do a home inspection for me this past weekend. He was on time and professional, not only was he excellent at his craft but he was very knowledgeable and thorough throughout the entire inspection. He was very informative and explained every detail of what was going on. He inspected every inch of the house and not one small detail was missed! I highly recommend this company to anybody buying a home. They will not let you down!
Steve did a wonderful job, he was very professional and thorough in his inspection. He took his time in checking everything from roof to foundation. He did a full sweep of the yard to detect any possibility of an oil tank. He went through all the systems from HVAC, electrical, plumbing and sewer lines. He managed to access a water line that was extremely difficult to access and put a camera scope down there to give us a full picture of what was going on. In addition, he did a Radon test as well as testing out all the appliances. All in all he did great work - he did a proper inspection going above and beyond to check every inch of the house noticing any issues we may not have. We feel confident that he was the best person to have looking out for us with the purchase of our first home!
The entire process was seamless with Safeway, from start to finish. The appointment process was extremely easy to setup and they were able to accommodate our work schedule. Walt was our inspector and he was amazing - extremely thorough, went over everything explaining the issue and recommended remedy. We went with the full inspection package - home, sewer line scope, radon test (what a great deal btw). We are not well versed and had a lot of questions. Walt was so patient and explained even the basics to us, giving tips for regular home maintenance. He followed up when the radon test results were available and offered his expertise on them several days after our inspection. We left feeling confident with our home purchase and had the information needed to finalize. Highly recommend this company and thank you for everything Walt!
Excellent service, would highly recommend
The services provided for our home inspection by Safeway were extremely valuable to the purchase of our first home. Walt arrived earlier than our scheduled appointment and began the inspection right away with my husband and I, informing us of everything he was looking out for along the way, and ensuring he educated us on what fixes were required and why. The report was promptly available with the necessary repairs outlined just as described to us in person. I would highly recommend any home buyer to utilize Safeway Home Inspectors for the purchase of their future home and will certainly use them in any future purchases as well.
Had the smoothest process with Safeway ! We were definitely nervous about the whole inspection process for our new home, but was instantly eased within the first few minutes. Mike exemplified professionalism and knowledge the whole visit. He was super thorough and made sure we had every answer to any questions we had. His transparency with any issues with the house prepared us and helped guide us into next steps of moving into our home. We felt assured and confident moving forward because of his inspection. With the housing market being what it is, we were grateful that we found Mike & Safeway, and he was so flexible with getting to us in a timely manner as well as receiving our reports back. Would 100% recommend him to friends and family !
Our inspector, Steve, was excellent. He was very thorough and super personable, taking the time to answer my questions and making friendly conversation throughout. He made what could have been a very dry 3-hour inspection relatively enjoyable! I highly recommend.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Words cannot describe how thorough, professional, and down to earth Mike at Safeway is. Incredibly responsive, showed up on time, walked and talked us through every step of the home inside and out. And churned out a beautiful, easy to understand/read report within 2 business days of the inspection. Could not ask for a better experience all around. Thank you for being an amazing professional to work with!

Steve was great to work with! Very professional and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend!!
My inspector Steven was incredible! His inspection was thoughtful and extremely detailed. I bought a home that is over 100 years old, and he was able to provide detailed information on the history of the original parts of the home as well as where work was done and to what level of quality. There were some issues with the house, and he came with detailed analysis on how to fix each problem and how urgently each one would need to be addressed. I’ve purchased many homes in the past and have truly never had an inspector as kind and thorough as Steven. I would recommend Safeway to anyone who needs a home inspection!
Very friendly professional and knowledgeable
Steve, was informative and thorough. He addressed any concerns and questions I had, with a clear explanation and potential solutions. I highly recommend this service.
We had a great experience with Safeway, from our initial consultation with Michael to our thorough home inspection with Robert. Robert went through every aspect of the 100-year-old house and took the time to talk us through and educate us about what we were seeing. Not only did he provide the necessary information for the inspection, but he made us better-informed homeowners.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value My realtor recommended Safeway Home Inspections and the process could not have been easier. The inspector, Walter was on time (early) and took the time to explain everything he was doing, things he saw as improvements as well as a very detailed Inspection report. Highly recommend this company. Thank you
Positive: Professionalism, Quality
Mike completed our home inspection. He was through, professional and detail oriented. He took time to explain everything that he was doing as well as what we should be doing to maintain our new home.
We had a great experience with Walt conducting our home inspection. As first time home buyers, he took the time to help explain different functions, and also how to best maintain and care for them. He inspected everything thoroughly, and helped us feel more confident in our home purchase. Thank you Walt!
Michael Czar is a great home inspector. He is friendly, very thorough, experienced and knowledgeable. He inspects then explains details about your new home that you will probably not know about. He encourages questions and you will learn everything you would want to know regarding your new home. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a home inspection.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value I had a great experience with Walt from Safeway home inspections. He was very thorough in explaining much of the nuances of the house we are purchasing. I was very impressed and learned a lot about keeping up with a house. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
We are so grateful to have worked with Steve and Mike for our home inspection process!! Steve was super thorough and paid attention to every little detail during the inspection. He communicated professionally and took the time to patiently answer all our questions about the house. He provided us with invaluable tips about maintaining the house and went above and beyond during the entire process! He is extremely professional and very compassionate and warm as a person. We felt like we had a close friend walking us through inspection. He was also super efficient and quick in getting us a very detailed and easy to digest report on the same day! Thank you Steve for the amazing service and we would highly recommend Steve and the entire Safeway Home Inspections team for your future needs!
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Steve is the best inspection specialist when it comes to residential property. Hiring him is your luck. First, he showed on time. He checked items in your future home one by one. He did not let any details go by without notice. And he took photos for you to review. Secondly, he put all the information on the report, and he added arrows to indicate the specific areas to fix. His suggestions for repair are valuable. His report was professional with standard table of contents and easy navigation. At last, his fee was reasonable and his consulting was beyond value. Buying a home needs you to fully understand your home for the right price estimate and future maintenance. Steve is one of the best home inspection specialists you can find.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value We had a great experience working with Walt from Safeway Home Inspections. We already saw he was highly recommended and he lived up to his reputation. As first time homebuyers we are naturally nervous and paranoid to miss critical issues and Walt inspected every inch of every room and the exterior: checking every window and wall socket while explaining what he was doing and asking us if we had any questions. We came in with our biggest concerns being wiring and plumbing for an older house and he thoroughly checked the wiring, electrical panel and all visible plumbing to identify any trouble spots or quell any need for concern. We would highly recommend Walt!
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value We had the absolute pleasure of working with Steve as the inspector for our home. He came highly recommended, and the recommendations did not do him justice. He is extremely knowledgeable about home inspections and went above and beyond to check all areas to ensure we knew about any potential issues with our home. Word to the wise, you NEED to work with Safeway Home Inspections and please, please, please ask for Steve! His services are unmatched and priceless. He goes out of his way to provide knowledge on house maintenance tips that you don’t know and frankly would never know. He shared tips on how to preserve the life of our boiler and our A/C unit to myself and my husband. HGTVs “Home inspector Joe” has nothing on Steve! Trust me. You cannot go wrong by allowing him into your future home. If I could, I would invest my lifesavings in his work because I know I would get a return on my investment due to his knowledge, great personality, and willingness to go above and beyond. He is worth his weight in gold. As you go on the tour, he teaches you what wires belong to which appliance, how to care for specific items like the HVAC units, etc. Working with him is like attending a home ownership 101 class all while getting your inspection. And if his work didn’t speak for him, his personality is a breath of fresh air. He is kind, funny, warm and is willing to answer any question. He answered all of our questions and never made us feel like any of the questions were silly or unnecessary. If I could, I would gift his services to other home owners as holiday and birthday gifts just to get his invaluable education and home preservation tips.
Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Recommended by our attorney, Mike from Safeway recently completed our home inspection. He was completely thorough and fully explained advantages/disadvantages to each issue. Also, I appreciate that he erred on the side of caution to protect my interests. I would fully recommend Mike and Safeway for any home inspection.
Positive: Professionalism
