Working with Corry has truly been a privilege. What stands out most about him is his integrity. He consistently leads with honesty and strong values, never allowing money or pressure to come before doing what is right. That consistency and character are rare and deeply respected. Corry is also extremely knowledgeable and skilled in his work. He knows what he is doing, communicates clearly, and approaches each project with confidence and care. His experience shows in both the quality of the work and the way he guides projects from start to finish. He is patient, thoughtful, and genuinely kind in how he works with people. He creates a professional and welcoming environment, and it is clear he truly cares about his clients and the people he works with. Every project I was involved in with Corry was handled with respect, professionalism, and attention to detail. If you are looking for someone who values integrity, knowledge, and quality, Corry is someone you can trust.

Brian is professional, and responsive. I want to mention specific service which I didn’t see from other inspector. That is heat sensor (with display of color spectrum of different temperatures) . With that, he was able to easily identify a water leak from roof. That was very helpful and otherwise would have taken long time to detect. He is very responsive. I have requested small change in the report and he immediately updated and sent new copy to me.

I am in the process of purchasing my first home. Brian, with Built Right Homes made it very easy, affordable, and stress free. First, he was able to get out there the next day and get a very thorough inspection done on my soon to be home. The results were better than expected. He was able to find things that would have been missed. I look forward to closing at the end of the month! Thank you so much Built Right Home Inspections!!!

Scheduling was a breeze and up front cost was clear. Payment was made very easily and hassle free. Inspection itself was very thorough and smooth. He verbally explained everything clearly and the written report was also just as clear and easy to understand. Highly recommend them.

FAQS

How long does a home inspection take in Bakersfield?

Most home inspections in Bakersfield take 2 to 4 hours, depending on the property's size, age, and condition. Larger properties or inspections that include add-on services, such as mold testing or a sewer scope, may take additional time.

What does a home inspection cost in Bakersfield, CA?

Built Right's full home inspection starts at $295. Pricing varies based on property size, age, and requested services. Call us at (661) 377-7777 or book online for a specific quote based on your property.

Do you offer same-day or next-day inspection appointments?

With our multi-inspector team across the region, we offer scheduling flexibility that single-inspector firms cannot match. Next-day appointments are standard for most properties, depending on the inspection scope.

What is the difference between a licensed general contractor and a standard home inspector?

A standard home inspector is trained to identify and document property conditions. A licensed general contractor understands how buildings are constructed, so they evaluate findings with greater technical context, more accurate severity assessments, and a clearer understanding of what repair work actually involves. Cory Wright's dual credentials give Built Right clients both perspectives in every inspection.

Do you offer inspections in English and Spanish?

Yes. Built Right has dedicated English & Spanish-speaking staff to ensure clear communication throughout the inspection process, from scheduling through report delivery for every client in the Bakersfield community.
