Put our home inspections expertise to work for you when looking for your new home in the New England area. Our customers benefit from the experience of over 12,000 inspections within the last 25 years. Our services provide peace of mind and potentially save countless dollars on one of the largest investments of your lifetime. We remove the negative chance factor from the purchase by bringing problem areas to your attention, allowing for correction before investment Certified Home Inspection will give you the substance to make your decision with confidence.loss. The inspection report will provide all the necessary information to make your decision with confidence.

The purchase of a home is probably the largest single investment you will ever make. You should learn as much as you can about the condition of the property and the need for any major repairs before you buy, so that you can minimize unpleasant surprises and difficulties afterwards.

Of course, home inspections also point out the positive aspects of a home, as well as the maintenance that will be necessary to keep it in good shape. After the inspection, you will have a much clearer understanding of the property you are about to purchase.

If you are already a home owner, the inspection may be used to identify problems in the making and to learn preventive measures which might avoid costly future repairs. If you are planning to sell your home, you may wish to have an inspection prior to placing your home on the market. This will give you a better understanding of conditions which may be discovered by the buyer's inspector, and an opportunity to make repairs that will put the house in better selling condition.

Radon testing is a service provided for our clients. A link to retrieve test results can be found at the bottom of this page. Please visit our inspections FAQ page for answers to most of your questions.
