As a Realtor who attends all of her buyer's inspections, you learn which ones are valuable. I was referred to Blake Putnam from a Realtor in Breckenridge. All of my expectations were met in full. His report has great pictures, detailed explanations and a summary of issues that need to be addressed. Blake has also been accessible after the inspection with referrals of contractors. Blake is the most knowledgeable inspector I have ever met...his knowledge covers electrical, plumbing, framing, mold, roofing, gutters, heating, and knowledge of the wet lands in the area.

William
Not only do I refer ALL of my clients to Blake Putnam at National Property Inspectors, I use his services for my own home. I recently had concerns about the radon levels in my house and in the basement level where my daughter’s bedrooms are located. I called Blake to inquire about radon testing. Blake is knowledgeable, trustworthy and prompt in his services. We discussed the matter, and within 24 hours Blake had set up a machine to begin monitoring the radon levels. Blake communicated with me throughout the process. When the testing was complete, Blake provided a very detailed report and summary as to the radon levels in a quick and timely manner. I would refer and trust Blake Putnam with every detail of a home inspection.
Daniel
Very impressed with Blake at NPI. He spent an enormous amount of time with the inspection and answering questions. The report is high quality and detailed. Blake loves his job and it shows.
Anand
Blake did a thorough job in a timely manner as promised. He is very responsive and provided answers to several questions that were beyond the scope of his work. I had the luxury of review his report as well as that of a previous inspector. Blake's work was significantly better while the other report contained several significant errors.
Nat
I love no-hassle, no-frills, no-excuses service like the kind I received from Blake. He showed up, did the work, fully briefed me on what he found and then provided one of the most comprehensive reports I've seen in all my years of buying homes as my personal residence.
James
Blake was fantastic from start to finish. As first time home buyers, we were eager to use the inspection as a learning opportunity and Blake invited us to join the inspection and call him prior and after with any questions. His communication was consistent and both professional and accessible, which we very much appreciated!
Erica
Blake showed great professionalism when doing the inspection for my family. We were in a time crunch and he still was able to work with our schedule. He also helped answer all the question we had. We would refer him to anyone that was looking for an inspector.
Carmany
Having never actually witnessed an inspection before, I wasn't sure what went on. Blake did an incredibly thorough job and educated me on what was important and why. I have every confidence now that not a stone was left unturned, and the property we are buying will be just what he says it is. Thank you, Blake, for that peace of mind!
Jeremy
Blake, I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you! My wife and I are both very familiar with the real estate industry and as I had previously mentioned she was very impressed by your attention to detail and knowledge of the inspections you perform from previous experience. I would now like to thank you for the same! The inspection and report were beyond expectation, our business along with any recommendations will go to no one else in the future!
