Corona Virus Covid-19
April Service Update

     MHBI has placed restrictions on our services during this critical period, joining our society in the attempts to limit and stop the spread of the Covid-19 virus.
     Effective April 2021 we will be returning to our full complement of services. We are continuing to give priority to customers for which we have a prior relationship.
     As we wish to protect all those involved in the inspection, we continue to require all attendees to follow the set of standard CDC guidelines, adjusted to fit building inspections. We take this virus seriously and are doing our best to also protect owners' properties by wearing masks, gloves, other protective wear as necessary, and limiting contact with countertops, tables, and other surfaces. You can find a copy of our guidelines here.

I had MHBI do pre-drywall and final inspection for new construction in Loudoun county.  He gave a very thorough inspection with an eye for detail.  I was very impressed with his work, and I think the builder was as well.  He gave a detailed report covering all the issues which I could provide to builder.  Would definitely recommend.

Mr. Masters did a very thorough inspection of a deck at a property that was under contract for purchase (I represented the Buyers). He was on time, had all of the necessary materials, and was intent on checking every nook and cranny of the structure for any safety concerns. Mr. Masters provided an excellent report and educated the future homeowner about all of the structural issues that he found during his inspection. We were able to show the Seller the report and have everything repaired prior to settlement. I would 100% recommend this service.
