Why people believe in us

Kelsey M.

We had such a great experience with Chris! We took a mini vacation before we were planning to move into our new house and Chris was so great to communicate with on times that would be easy for us when we got back home. He was honest and explained everything thoroughly about his inspection. Showed us pictures of what needed to be fixed and what he would do if this was his house. We were treated like family with honesty and compassion. Highly recommend Cotton Home Inspections! Will be using them again for any future inspections.

I've known Chris for a long time. We worked at the Sheriff's Office together, so I already knew of his dedication and outstanding work ethic. When I needed a home inspection there was no doubt who I was going to call. He's done 2 inspections for me. The 1st one uncovered hidden problems that would have been extremely expensive to rectify later, and provided me with the information I needed to make an informed decision. I passed on that house, and I'm glad I did. When I found another house, I called Chris again. (of course)  His detailed, concise report allowed me to better negotiate with the seller, and enabled me to know what items might need future attention. I bought the 2nd home, due in large part to Chris' diligence and thoroughness during the inspection process. Out of 5 stars I would rate Cotton Home Inspections 10 stars. There is none better.

We have been looking for a house for months. Finally located one we loved. Chris Cotten came out to do the home inspection and afterwards he had located so many problems we actually cancelled our contract we had put on the house.Chris is a great trustworthy guy, he answered all of my (probably stupid) questions and was patient and explained everything very thoroughly. Thank you sir and we greatly appreciate the job you did for us!!!
