I've used Darrul for 7 years. Best home inspector there is. I sell about 60 to 80 houses a year and he does majority of them. Very thorough and never misses anything.

Reviewers frequently highlight the inspector's punctuality, professional communication, and the timely delivery of detailed reports featuring photos and videos. Clients often note that the thorough nature of the inspections helps identify issues like gas leaks or mold, which can aid in negotiations or repairs. While most feedback is positive regarding fair pricing and ease of scheduling, two low-star reviews criticize the service for missing significant problems and perceiving the owner's review responses as unprofessional.

Stocks Home Inspection is my go-to inspector when determining the condition of a property prior to purchase. I have used his company twice and will definitely call him again for the next one! I recently closed on a property and Darrul performed a thorough inspection of the home, which helped me negotiate with the seller, ultimately coming to a lower final sale price. Darrul provided the inspection report the same day, which was ideal given the short due diligence period. He is very knowledgeable, punctual, and great at communicating what’s going on with a property.

My inspections by Mr. Stocks was great! I had my initial inspection last week then had a re-inspection of the repairs the seller made a few days ago. Mr. Stocks had no problem answering my questions and he is very professional. He is also very knowledgeable and has all of the right tools/technology to supplement his knowledge. Mr. Stocks was able to detect a gas leak in the basement as well as moisture getting into one of the walls (among of other items, both minor and major). Both of my inspections were at 10am and I received my very thorough report (with both pictures and videos) later that evening. Mr. Stocks has eased my anxiety of purchasing an older home (built in 1930) as I feel confident that he identified the necessary items that need to be detected prior to purchase.
I had my inspection done on 7/15 and by that evening I had an extremely thorough report emailed to me. It included highlighted pictures and a video. My inspector Darrul answered all questions as he was going thru the home. And as a bonus, I got another email today that was easy to format and send to the homeowner explaining my concerns. Stocks Home inspection report deserved every penny on this one.

Darrul was awesome. He came to our house at the time of the inspection, followed all COVID 19 mandates, and was extremely kind.
Stocks is simply the best inspection service in the business. I'm a Realtor and Darrul is always our first choice, he has literally saved our clients thousands of dollars. His pricing is also very competitive.
