What Customers Say
Nick G.
Josh was incredible to work with. I truly mean that. He was attentive and was able to get our home inspected the next day.
Additionally, he allowed us to attend while he inspected and gave his honest feedback. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a home inspection.
Olivia C.
Josh is an extremely knowledgeable inspector who produced a very detailed report, which I really appreciated as a first time homebuyer for an older home. He was very efficient and able to accommodate my short turnaround time, while also wonderfully patient when some inconvenient external factors out of his control arose that delayed his ability to access the property. His attention to detail, enthusiasm to answer my many questions, and experience in the construction sector gave me a lot of confidence in the thoroughness of his report!
Michael A.
Josh was a pleasure to work with. He was on time and thorough. Even though the builder made things difficult, he kept on top of it, and communicated with me.
He found a lot of discrepancies that both myself and the contractor had missed, saving both headaches and money. Well worth the cost. Thanks Josh!
Follow up inspection verified that several important issues were addressed by the builder. I will definitely use Josh again for the 11 month warranty inspection. Thank you sir for your excellent inspection and follow up!

Joshua Farren
Owner & Inspector
I started my home inspection company in 2023 after years in the "fix-and-flip" world. My path here wasn't exactly traditional. I served as a Navy medic for six years, and after spending time working in a fast-paced ER, I realized I was never going to be someone who could sit behind a desk all day. After the Navy, I headed to Clemson University to earn my civil engineering degree. After graduation I moved to Atlanta. While I was working on the Grady expansion project downtown, I was also renovating the house I was living in. After selling that house, I realized that’s where my heart was. I spent the next several years doing my own "fix-and-flips." That knowledge and experience allowed me to obtain my Georgia residential GC license. Eventually, the grind of flipping took its toll, but I realized I didn't want to leave the industry, I just wanted to change my focus. I’ve seen all the tricks that contractors and homeowners use to hide shoddy work, and I want to use that "insider" knowledge to help buyers and sellers.
