Constraction reviews in Chattanooga, Tennessee

Do NOT hire this inspector.
Their report gave me confidence to buy my home, but it completely missed serious hazards. The house had extensive cat urine and feces contamination, including on top of kitchen cabinets that were pulling away from the wall. They missed a crack in the bottom of the bathtub because their inspector couldn't be bothered to lift a rubber mat in a completely vacant home with only one bathroom. Three weeks after moving in, someone actually fell through the floor in one bedroom.
When I raised these issues, the company did nothing to address them. Instead, they tried to pressure me into signing a nondisclosure agreement in exchange for a refund of the inspection an amount that doesn’t even come close to covering the emotional, financial, and health impact on me and my child, who has allergies.
They also refused to enter the attic through accessible side vents, leaving that entire area unchecked.
Homebuyers trust inspectors to protect them from exactly these types of hazards. This company failed completely. Avoid them and hire someone who actually takes accountability and does a thorough job.
UPDATE: This company most definitely lies, the photos of my joists and subfloor in my report are NOTHING compared to what I found after moving in and they most definitely sent me an NDA to sign in exchange for ONLY a refund on my inspection. Their inspector Iran Arango did not tell me anything close to the extent of the damage I was going to be dealing with and their lead inspector was just as useless, when they sent him out to review Irans job, all he did was stand around and take maybe two pictures, he didn't even actually look at anything unless I got down and pointed at it for him. I have had lawyers review everything from start to now of the purchase of this house, this company thinks they can get away with what they do (more like DON'T do). They can keep my $809 inspection money because it doesn't even put a dent in what their sad excuse of an inspection has put me through. -
I was shocked to see the level of detail provided in the inspection report. The inspector was very well educated on all aspects of homes and I have no doubt he captured any current or future issues. Matt did a fantastic job in the inspection process and took the time to explain potential problems each issue can cause. My expectations were exceeded. I am speechless. In a world where it is difficult to find contractors with integrity, I am so thankful to have found the best inspection firm I could ever imagine. Thank you so much!

Shawn, one of My City Home’s inspectors, truly deserves ten stars. His professionalism, thoroughness, and overall quality of work were exceptional from start to finish. I could not recommend this company—and especially Shawn—more highly to anyone in need of a reliable, meticulous home inspection. Thank you all so much.

I had a home inspection done by My City Chattanooga Home Inspector for my upcoming house purchase. They were very timely, professional, and great to work with. Joseph, who performed the inspection, called me immediately after the inspection was done (I could not attend the inspection), and gave me a very thorough report. And then later that day, send me the written report. I highly recommend this group!

Scott was thorough, an expert, and a great guy. We even had the pleasure of having Katie stop by during our inspection! They sent us a 62 page report with TONS of photos within 24 hours of the inspection. Not only did they send this but Scott spent a long time explaining what he was putting in the report to us before he left. He asked multiple times if we had anymore questions and gave us his cell number to text/call if we had any after he left. Above and beyond. We felt very taken care of for such a big life purchase.
This is well worth any cost (and it was very affordable). It is one of the biggest purchases someone will make in their life and the inspection is the sole thing you can have done that makes you know if it is a good or bad decision. Do not hesitate or shop around for inspectors, THIS company is the smart choice! -
"I highly recommend chattanooga home inspectiors for anyone looking to buy in the Chattanooga area. Sierra was incredibly thorough and took the time to explain everything to me in plain English, not just jargon. She caught a few things I never would have noticed, which gave me huge peace of mind moving forward with the purchase. If you want someone who actually looks out for your best interest, give them a call."

Amazing company to work with. The process was not only easy and pleasant, but also saved us from making a bad deal. We received lower quotes on services, but the price was matched! Our inspector, Matt Williams, was patient when we asked questions and/or did not fully understand the issue. We were welcomed to be present for the whole inspection and he even apologized for giving us bad news! He helped us understand the definite, the probable and the maybe issues. Even a vendor he recommended for a quote was fast, kind and efficient. Do not hesitate to use this company. We are still on the house hunt and we will use their services again when we make our next offer. Thanks for helping us through our house hunting!

The inspector was very thorough with his work and took the time to explain to me what he thought were the major issues as well as giving recommendations on who to contact for making repairs. I appreciate the service and have confidence in my home purchase because of their work.

Jase was very knowledgeable. He not only took his time and was thorough in his inspection of my soon to be forever home, he took his time in explaining, to me in detail, his inspection of the residence.
Thank you Jase for your time and professionalism -
Had to have 2 different home inspections done. Sierra did the 1st one and did a great job explaining everything to me and answering all my questions. I would highly recommend her to anyone. I did not get to speak with inspector but his report was very informative and I was able to understand it. Will recommend this company to anybody needing a home inspection done.

Scott Walters with MyCity Chattanooga Home Inspector was AMAZING!
Everything about the inspection went great. The intro videos on their website were helpful.
I chose to call to request the inspection (rather than schedule ) so I could talk over the options. The person in the office (Jessica), was knowledgeable and pleasant.
As Malcolm Godwin says on their website, they are more expensive, but they do a better job. The house we had put an offer on was just at the age where HVAC, roof, etc. needed to be replaced. There was also evidence of termites, and I wanted to check for radon, etc. I’m the kind of person who values quality. And I had a high-quality experience with this company.
Text and email communication went great!
The thing I am most excited to tell about was working with Scott Walters. The house had three stories, a huge crawlspace, attic spaces. Scott was super thorough, focused, and expert.
The house took longer than expected to inspect, and he worked into the evening to get it done thoroughly, despite the fact that I overheard him say he had some personal appointments to get to that evening.
He didn’t talk much during the inspection, (he was hustling), but at the end he took time to show us the most pressing issues. Everything else he put into a very detailed 80-page report, complete with pictures to back everything up.
We were armed with the information we needed to make wise decisions regarding the house. We called a roofer and HVAC guy to give us a second opinion. Scott was right!
We tried to negotiate with the seller, but eventually decided not to purchase the house. We feel so relieved that we didn’t get in over our head.
I highly recommend MyCity Chattanooga Home Inspector! -
Sierra was SO incredible to work with during my home inspection. She went through every part of the report with me and clearly explained and recommended solutions for every issue she found. She was so accommodating and such an expert. Cannot recommend her enough!

“Shawn with Chattanooga Home Inspector did an exceptional job on my multi‑unit inspections. He was extremely thorough, checking structure, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and everything in between. He pointed out several issues I hadn’t noticed and explained everything clearly. Beyond his professionalism and expertise, he was genuinely easy to get along with — we even shared a few laughs along the way, which made the whole process comfortable and stress‑free. I highly recommend Shawn and Chattanooga Home Inspector for anyone needing a detailed, reliable, and friendly inspection experience.”

Great work by Matt in pointing out things that needed repaired in our new townhome. He also advised us of radon issue after placing approved radon testing kit in our townhome.
Recommend using this company and doing a radon test. Better to live in a healthy new home than suffer possible future consequences!
Thanks Matt. -
Scott was incredible for our inspection! Not only was he incredibly thorough, but he talked us through everything in a way that easy for us to understand. The guide he created helped us not only identify repairs but what we want to work on once we get in the house. Truly a great experience, thank you Scott!

We were very happy with the Home inspection that was done on our newly built home. It is a big investment and to have that piece of mind is priceless. We not only rec'd a detailed copy of the inspection but a phone call after it was complete to go over the report. Shaun was great as was the whole team. Thanks to Lindsay who checked in with us to schedule the inspection. Would recommend this company.

These guys are awesome and definitely know their stuff, especially Scott! The report we got after the house inspection and sewer scope was very thorough and detailed. It included pages and pages of high quality pictures and videos with detailed descriptions explaining everything. I would definitely recommend my City Chattanooga Home Inspector for anyone buying a home or even if you're concerned with something in your own and don't know where to start. If I need another house inspection, I know where to go!

We got the house on which we had made an offer to purchase inspected by My City Chattanooga Home Inspector. We were not considering them for the home inspection because they were more expensive than most other home inspection service providers. In talking with their sales person we changed our mind after realizing the depth of their service, attention to the details, and their independent nature. I shadowed the inspector from start to finish. This inspector, Shawn Sandberg, was very thorough, methodical, and took his time in checking out every little details of this house. We received their report the same day. I would highly recommend them if you want to get your future home inspected. Will you spend a little more? Yes, but missing some deficiency can potentially cost you much more than that amount.

Lyndsey, who was super friendly and kind, set us up with Shawn S. He was excellent and thorough in his inspection and report. We attended the very end of the inspection and he took the time to communicate and show all the most important discoveries and things that would need attention. I can absolutely recommend My City Chattanooga Home Inspector It's is every bit worth what you pay.

I recently had my home inspected by Jase Brown with Chattanooga Home Inspector, and I was very pleased with the thoroughness and professionalism of his work. Jase took the time to explain the inspection process, walked me through key findings, and provided a detailed report that was both easy to understand and extremely comprehensive. The inspection covered every major system, roof, electrical, HVAC, crawlspace, and more, with clear photos, safety recommendations, and practical repair suggestions. I especially appreciated his attention to potential moisture and electrical concerns, which gave me confidence in planning needed maintenance. His balanced approach highlighted both the positives and areas for improvement, helping me make informed decisions about my purchase. Overall, Jase’s communication, professionalism, and depth of knowledge exceeded my expectations. I would strongly recommend him and My City Home Inspector for anyone needing a reliable and detailed home inspection.

Scott was absolutely amazing! He inspected my house top to bottom. After he was done he not only sent me my report but discussed it with me in detail. I truly would not recommend anyone else! Once again thank you for everything you’ve done for us!
