    We worked with Essential Home Inspection this past winter and had a great experience. Steve allowed me to join him understand what I was looking at as well as the causes. He also came back out once the snow melted to check our roof(s). I appreciat their professionalism, care, and expertise. I would recommend!

    Highly recommend.
