About Rick McCullough
Colorado does NOT have any exisiting laws requiring licensing of Home Inspectors. This means that you will ultimately have to make your hiring decision with other means. How can you tell if your Home Inspector is really qualified, knowledgeable, unbiased and working for YOU.
My Promise to You
Choosing the right home inspector is a difficult, but very important decision. Unlike most professionals, you probably will not get to meet me until after you hire me and we meet for YOUR inspection. Furthermore, different inspectors have varying knowledge, experience, qualifications, equipment, reporting methods and yes, different pricing. One thing for sure is that a home inspection requires an overall intimate knowledge on the workings of your home. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort. I understand that this is probably the largest investment you will ever make. If you honor me by permitting me to inspect your new home, I promise you that I will inspect your new home as if it were my son or daughter buying it.

I have been Inspecting Denver Metro Area homes since 1990 and have performed over 15,000 in that time. I have always held myself to the highest standards through continuing education, being honest, never cutting corners, providing the best possible service to the Client. That's why I have become a member of the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors (NACHI). As a NACHI member, I:

As a NACHI member I must adhere to NACHI's Standards of Practice. This means I will attempt to inspect all of the following (when accessible):
Review the NACHI Standards of Practice for complete details or contact me with any specific questions. Or call 303-464-7026 to set your appoinment.
The Client receives a detailed, printed and bound, Inspection Report with an easy to understand Summary Page(s) upon completion of the Inspection. No waiting until the next day or two to receive the Report. Then if you do have questions or concerns they can be addressed then and there while the inspection is fresh.
What Really Matters
Buying a home? The process can be stressful. A home inspection is supposed to give you peace of mind, but often has the opposite effect. You will be asked to absorb a lot of information in a short time. This often includes a written report, checklist, photographs, environmental reports and what the inspector himself says during the inspection. All this combined with the seller's disclosure and what you notice yourself makes the experience even more overwhelming. What should you do?
Relax. Most of your inspection will be maintenance recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These are nice to know about. However, the issues that really matter will fall into four categories:
Anything in these categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property (especially in categories 2 and 4).
Most sellers are honest and are often surprised to learn of defects uncovered during an inspection. Realize that sellers are under no obligation to repair everything mentioned in the report. No home is perfect. Keep things in perspective. Do not kill your deal over things that do not matter. It is inappropriate to demand that a seller address conditions already listed on the seller's disclosure or nit-picky items.
You should also consider a Walk Through Inspection to find if the items requested and agreed to be fixed, replaced or removed are done.

I have done business with Rick McCullough at Alert Home Services for over 10 years. I always feel comfortable recommending Rick and his company for many reasons. First and foremost, he is a professional! He really knows his stuff! Buyers feel comfortable with him. He explains the inspection report in a way to inform the buyer but does not alarm them. Secondly, the report is delivered to the buyer and myself, the agent, at the time of inspection. This is a real plus to me! Next, Rick is prompt and can always accommodate a time request that works for everyone, even a last minute rush! Lastly, but defiantly not least, price! Alert Home Services is a true value. I will always recommend this inspection company.

I do not hesitate to recommend Alert Home Services. Over the past three and a half years, I have used Rick for about 95% of the inspections required by my buyers. The other 5% was when the buyer had someone else who had been referred through a friend or family member. I know that both my clients and myself appreciate his thoroughness and willingness to explain to us in "lay mans" terms the actual condition of the home inspected. His common sense approach helped both myself and my clients understand which issues needed to be addressed in the Inspection Notice and which items, were simple ongoing "homeowner" maintenance issues.

As a Realtor I am frequently asked for recommendations for service providers. Most often people want to know who I recommend for electrical, furnace and air conditioning, roofing, remodeling, structural evaluations and landscaping. Over the past fifteen years I've worked with what I consider some of the best in the industry and have no reservations recommending those individuals to my clients. One of the most important professionals my clients need first is the home inspector they will use both in the purchase of their home or in preparing it for sale. I've known Rick now for about twelve years and I've recommended him to my clients as one of their first choices to conduct their home inspections. My criteria for his services are that he be knowledgeable and objective in evaluating the major systems in a house; furnace and air, electrical, plumbing, roofing, basic construction and foundation. He also has to be capable of conducting testing for radon and mold. I expect a thorough inspection and I expect it to be reasonably priced. Rick and Alert Home Services meet those demands.
Bottom line, the professionals that I recommend know that they have to take care of my clients right, the first time and every time that I recommend them. They don't get second chances and to date, Rick and Alert Home are my first recommendation for home inspections.
