Ken was timely, thorough, informative, and polite. He did an outstanding job, and found issues in my new home that I never would have found myself. His report was well-written and clear with good photos to describe each issue. Very well done, and delivered within 24 hrs of the inspection.

I was looking for someone to install an antenna for my mom in her new home. Ken Barker responded and came out the very same morning. He was so fast and efficient and very reasonable. I highly recommend Ken and would hire him again for future projects.

I hired Ken Barker to do my home inspection. He showed up and completed the inspection. But then I didn?t get an inspection report from him. The final day came for me to submit requests to the sellers and Ken could not be reached all day. I missed the deadline and did not hear from Ken until 9:00 that night, hours after the 5:00 deadline. It must have been a glitch with his system, he said. And he forgot to bring his phone with him and didn?t get my calls. He did send me the report that night, but of course, it was too late for me to use it to negotiate repairs. In a phone conversation late that night, he said he would work with me on repairs. We agreed to discuss it again the next day or so. He has now ghosted me and will not respond. I get it. He doesn?t feel like dealing with it. But when you have a business, you need to be ethical and honest. Ken Barker is not. I would definitely not recommend this company for an inspection or anything else. Spend a few more dollars.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
