Protection Home Inspection / Environmental Services, Cincinnati OH

Butch is great. Very knowledgeable and trustworthy

Forrest Sutherland has done 2 inspections for me. He saved me from a bad purchase in the first instance and accomplished an inspection that is now moving to a closing. He is so detail oriented and thorough, he is simply the best I have ever encountered in 9 home purchases over the past 30 years. His knowledge and attention to detail is amazing. Then at the end of the inspection, we have a thorough vetting of what is important and what is not. He really is the best! No sugar coating, no glossing over to push the sale, just the honest truth.

I met Forrest (Butch) Sutherland in 2009 on a meeting where I had questions about accomplishing an inspection of my horse farm I wanted to sell. He not only answered my questions at the time, but gave me other information and incentives going toward the future. I didn't sell my farm at that time, but I never forgot his knowledge and integrity to share ideas and information.

I have since sold and left my farm and am now buying a house as a single woman, I of course thought only of using Forrest Sutherland of Protection Home Inspection to inspect my new home, knowing he would disclose any and all information that I may need to deal with my new home going forward.

He was well known by the realtors I was working with and after his 20 years of experience has a reputation of ethics and punctuality and a very high order of knowledge and integrity. Within 2 days of my call requesting his services, he had an appointment to inspect the home I wished to purchase and 1 day later, I had a 31 page report with colour photo's included; at my disposal.

It is comforting to know there still are professionals available at this level. What a comfort; a sigh of relief, that I know he is still available to answer my questions should I have additional ones
