We're so glad the inspection gave you the clarity and confidence you needed. If you ever need anything down the road, don't hesitate to reach out.
Happy with DS Inspects
I’m so happy that my husband and I decided to utilize DS Inspects services for our new construction home.
Mr. Ditanyan completed our pre-drywall inspection and was so thorough. He took the time to speak with us as the customers and ensured we understood his job and how he inspects homes. The report afterwards was very easy to follow and thorough. Mr. Ditanyan reached out after sending the report to ensure it was clear to us. He has a good report with our project manager and that just makes everything better.
He will be completing our post drywall inspection in about 45 days and then our follow-up at 11 months.
Do not hesitate to utilize the services this amazing company provides. You won’t be disappointed.

Amazing Services from DS Home Inspection Services
We recently had the pleasure of working with DS Home Inspection Services LLC, and we cannot recommend them enough! Specifically, Ditanyan Sye provided an incredibly thorough inspection for my new construction home. His attention to detail was remarkable, and his vast knowledge of both residential and new-construction inspection processes truly set him apart.
Mr. Sye took the time to explain each step of his process, from the initial walkthrough to the final report, making sure that we fully understood everything. He went beyond just checking off a list of items; he actively identified potential issues that could affect the long-term integrity of the home, such as areas where builders sometimes overlook small but critical details—like flashing tape around windows and other touch-up elements.
His deep understanding of how homes are built and his insight into common builder practices gave me the confidence that no stone was left unturned. His recommendations were clear, practical, and demonstrated his dedication to ensuring the property is both safe and in optimal condition.
If you’re looking for a home inspection service that combines professionalism, expertise, and genuine care, Ditanyan and DS Home Inspection Services are the clear choice, bar none. Mr. Sye has been featured in over 200 publications and awarded "Best Comprehensive Home Inspection Services in Maryland and Virginia of 2024", credentials (Certified Master Inspector - CMI) are active and searchable, and would highly recommend his services.

Thank you so much Dontre for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review! It was truly a pleasure working with you on your new construction home inspection.
We're thrilled to hear that Ditanyan provided the thorough, comprehensive service that we strive to deliver with every inspection. Your recognition of his attention to detail—especially regarding those critical elements like flashing tape and builder oversights—means a great deal to us. These "small" details can make a significant difference in a home's long-term performance, and it's exactly why we take the time to explain our process every step of the way.
We're particularly glad you found value in the Foundation Elevation Inspection add-on. You're absolutely right that establishing that baseline for new construction can be invaluable for future warranty claims and gives homeowners important documentation and peace of mind.
Your confidence in our services and your willingness to recommend us to others is the highest compliment we could receive. We're committed to continuing to provide this level of expertise, professionalism, and genuine care to every client.
Thank you again for choosing DS Home Inspection Services, and congratulations on your new home!

Short Notice - Very Impressed
Luckily, I was able to book DS Home Inspection Services, LLC on very short notice due to the builder. Although it was short notice I did receive a prompt response and communication about a Pre-Drywall Inspection. Communication involving what to inspect, notification of arrival to the site and notification once the inspection was over. Regarding the inspection, the inspector Ditanyan was extremely thorough in his inspection finding items of missing window flashing and a framing member that was not secured. This led to discussions with the builder and saved me money down the line. Very experienced, knowledgable and professional. I appreciate the items that were discovered and will be using his services in the future for the pre-settlement inspection.

An Exceptional Educator & Home Inspector: Ditanyan Sye Goes Above and Beyond
Ditanyan Sye is an extraordinary educator who's truly passionate about teaching. I'm so impressed with his class that I felt compelled to write this review even before completing it. Coming from a completely different field, I was initially overwhelmed by the complex subject matter. However, Ditanyan's extensive background and expertise allow him to present even the most challenging concepts in a clear and engaging way.
His classes are dynamic and interactive, a far cry from the monotonous "textbook reading" style. He challenges us to think critically and fosters an environment where every student actively participates. Navigating the dense textbook could be daunting, but Ditanyan masterfully breaks down the material, highlighting key points for both the exam and real-world application.
He goes above and beyond, sharing invaluable insights on building a successful career as a home inspector - knowledge you won't find in any book or online. He even generously invites students to shadow him during actual inspections, providing unparalleled hands-on experience.
It's evident that his home inspection clients are incredibly fortunate to have him. His thoroughness during inspections, coupled with his ability to explain complex findings in layman's terms, sets him apart. Not to mention, his rates are remarkably reasonable, offering exceptional value.
Ditanyan's dedication and passion for teaching are truly exceptional, and he deserves the highest praise.

If I could rate DS Home Inspection Services with a 500, I would! I called this business with some questions about some current ceiling and basement floor issues that we are having, and Ditanyan Sye returned my call within the hour! He recommended that we look for a foundational specialist instead, and told me that he would much rather save us some money, since that would be the advice he'd give if he came out to inspect our home. He was a TREMENDOUS help, esp. since we had no idea where to start in finding solutions. We HIGHLY recommend Ditanyan if you are looking for an incredibly exceptional home inspection. Thank you, Ditanyan!
