Tim was great! Home inspection went smoothly and was patient and educational with me as I bothered him with dumb questions about the house we were purchasing. I got the report very quickly by email/text once he finished. Highly recommend to work with Tim for a home inspection for your new home.

This was our second time having Tim do a house inspection for us, and it did not disappoint! He is such a pleasure to work with - thorough, knowledgeable, friendly, and great at answering questions. He definitely wears multiple hats (licensed electrician, previous realtor, contractor, etc) so he really bring a wide scope of experience to each inspection. I was also so grateful that he brought coffee and snacks to the inspection, but more importantly he had construction-themed coloring books and crayons available for my toddler! Such a small but awesome gesture and a testament to his excellent service and kindness. We will never use anyone else for a home inspection! Thanks Tim and RoAnna!

- Eli Labinger - May 08, 2023

We are buying a house and had to get an inspection done. The inspector was amazing. He was very thorough and detailed.
He made sure to take pictures and video. When we reviewed the report, there was no questions on what or where he was talking about. I would recommend this company to everyone that needs their home inspected. Thank you for an amazing job well done.

- Nonie Hansen - May 08, 2023

Tim is fantastic! He worked with me on 2 houses and has helped me avoid over $100,000 in repairs. Each time I worked with Tim I was on an expedited timeline, and when I couldn't make one of the open slots on his online self scheduler work (which is very easy to use), I called and he was able to fit me in on days that I could be there with him at the inspections. He noticed details that I am sure other instructors might miss (multiple trades people confirmed this when I had them follow up on things he pointed out) and helped me determine issues that were catastrophic versus just big headaches. Both of my inspections were thorough and completed in a timely fashion. Additionally, the blue ladder website is well organized and hosts all of your inspection info under your profile - I look back on the website for reference to the inspection a ton. Final thoughts: Tim is great! Highly recommend his service! Most importantly, Tim has a great sense of humor, and we shared some good laughs through the process!

We recently received our detailed home inspection report from Tim at Blue Ladder. Wow! This guy did not cut corners. He throughly reviewed/inspected our future home from foundation to roof. Having gone through a similar inspection in California recently, we were not expecting the level of detail provided by Tim. Great job!

Tim at Blue Ladder was more than helpful! We asked for his help a year ago with our new construction home, and came back for our one year inspection. He was quick, kind, and knowledgeable. Eased my fears of anything being wrong with our home - it’s normal to see some wear as a house settles. Thanks Tim!

We had the opportunity to own a number of homes over our lifetime and have never received the exceptional level of service from an inspection company that Tim provided to us. Tim’s unmatched thoroughness, willingness to answer all questions with great detail, same day written report with comprehensive videos and warm/customer focused style is absolutely unparalleled!! Tim even set up his own coffee machine and made my agent an me a great cup of coffee and snack! Hats off to Tim 😀

Extraordinarily friendly from the moment I called, Tim was on time, and handled a sensitive inspection thoroughly and professionally. He even provided a few breakfast goodies since it was an early morning inspection! Who does that?? Tim does! Without a doubt, I’ll call Blue Ladder the next time I need a home inspection (which I hope will be a long time from now!).

Tim was a terrific inspector that not only made sure our new construction home was up to standard, but also provided us with important information about how to take care our home for the years to come. Despite already inspecting similar homes to ours in the neighborhood, Tim made sure to leave no stone unturned and provided us with a detailed report with pictures for our records. Hiring Blue Ladder was vital to us as new homeowners.

In dealing with so many people when purchasing a home, we were so surprised Tim showed up on time and with a complete positive outlook.

Despite Blue Ladder being in located Aloha, we had a home inspected in Yamhill County. We were so fortunate Tim had time to work with us. We bought our first home during the 1980’s so we had no idea what to expect this time around. None of our friends have had such a thorough inspection done so far. Tim even uses thermal imaging!

Tim & RoAnna are extremely transparent even letting a customer know the fees & pricing to expect. Their reports are so detailed & Tim encouraged us to ask any questions. We were surprised to view multiple pictures of items reviewed along with suggestions on what to worry about or how to approach repairs. Not only that, but Tim went out of his way to offer sound advice for keeping things working in the future.

Blue Ladder explains everything at the end of the inspection, following up with a detailed list of everything tested & checked. We were plain blown away with his professionalism making the entire process easy from our viewpoint. We were not aware Tim has dozens of years of experience in the home building field prior to being an inspector.

Tim was totally honest stating a licensed plumber had to lift the toilet to put a scope in for the sewer inspection. Tim refunded a portion of our payment & went into detail about who to contact for this & why it needed to be done.

No question…Blue Ladder Home Inspections is THE company to use.

- sherry ardinger - Aug 09, 2022

Tim's professionalism is evident in his personal presentation, his customer-centric approach to his work, and most importantly, his grasp of construction history. I have owned homes across the country for decades, and his service is the easily the best I've ever experienced.

My realtor referred me to use their services and Tim had a very welcoming and bright personality. After the inspection was over he walked me through the major findings on the home, relaying transparency and relief for me because any normal person would be worried.

Their inspection documents are very well formatted, easy to read and they provide quality photos to reference from.

Tim and Roanna, at Blue Ladder, are incredibly educated, thorough and efficient with their inspections and reports.

Tim at Blue Ladder Home Inspection is THE best home inspector I have ever worked with; I have worked with him 3 times. He is thorough, transparent, friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and detail oriented. He saved my partner and I from buying a lemon of a home! If you want to sleep comfortably at night knowing that the biggest investment you may ever make is secure and safe, then Tim is your guy!

Bonus, if it’s an early morning inspection and you’re a bit bleary eyed, don’t worry, Tim will have his coffee machine set-up for you, with breakfast cookies to boot!

The experience I had with Blue Ladder Home Inspection was a good one. We had someone come and inspect a house we were buying and our inspector (Tim Damm) did a great job of looking over everything and relaying to us all the major details (crawl space, sewer scope, Radon levels, and overall house condition) with us in person. Then, after the inspection, he gave us a very good write up consisting of all the key things we should know and fix both major and minor. As a bonus, he also included some helpful first steps in fixing some of the major problems as well as some tips on some of the minor fixes. He brought a mobile k-cup coffee maker and some snacks for us to eat/drink while he was going through the house and was very nice, polite, and professional. 10/10 would recommend.
