Meet Harrison Schwartz

Brentwood Inspect is owned and operated by Harrison Schwartz, a Virginia-licensed home inspector. Every inspection is performed personally — the person you book is the person who shows up, crawls the crawlspace, flies the drone, and writes the report.

How We Inspect

The most expensive problems tend to be in the places that are hardest to reach. When it’s safe to, we go there.

Backed by Brentwood Solutions Group

Brentwood Inspect is part of Brentwood Solutions Group (BSG), a structural engineering firm that Harrison co-owns. Brentwood Inspect is a home inspection company, not an engineering firm: Harrison inspects and documents, and BSG’s licensed engineers make the engineering calls.

What that means for you: when an inspection turns up a defect that needs an engineer’s judgment, we can document it during the same visit. BSG’s professional engineer reviews and signs off on Engineering Add-On assessments and HUD foundation certifications, usually without the cost and wait of a separate engineer visit.
