    Ace Home inspections performed a home inspection and a septic inspection as well at the end of last year. We were told the tank was concrete and routine maintenance should make it last another 20 or so years. It's in the inspection report that the tank is in good condition. We had the tank pumped in the spring by another company and found out that the tank is actually a metal tank with some concrete around the opening, it it was rusted out and needs to be replaced. I made multiple calls to Ace and they either didn't return my call or said the owner was out of town. Finally after a few weeks of calling they sent someone out to look at it and confirmed that it was indeed a metal tank and that they would follow up with me. I never received a call and let me realtor know. She was able to get a hold of them and put me in contact with Sara who told me to file a claim and sent me an email with the website. I filed the claim and it was den I ed saying the septic wasn't covered. I paid extra for the gold package that had all the warranties and it wasn't a simple thing that was missed. It was a major issue that is costing me well over $15k. I have tried several more times and the owner has yet to call me or make any attempt to fix things. The owner of Ace Home inspections also owns a septic company and deffinetly has the means to make this right.

    Beware !!! We read the great reviews and decided to go with the Ace. The inspection and everything else went smooth and nice. They said that roof is in good condition in report. And we closed the house. It hasn’t even been two weeks and the roof is leaking. I called roofing company to get estimates and all of them are saying roof needs replaced. Imagine hearing that with in two weeks of closing and that too after getting inspection done. The warranty they offer complimentary is nothing because it only covers till 3000 that too after some deductible. And when I called for that warranty on some 1800 number, the company said I am not direct customer because I don’t have policy number. We barely have any money after closing and this is a very big expense. I don’t like hurt business by posting negative reviews and maybe my review alone won’t matter but this is very unprofessional and not worth relying for big purchases as this one. So don’t make mistake which we made.
