Recent Home Inspection Reviews in Boston
- May Indoor Air Investigation LLCIf it would be possible I could give more than 5 stars. Jeff and Connie are very nice people and incredibly knowlegable specialists. They went above and beyond, conducting inspection of our house. I invited them because of presence of mold and odors. The house was thoroughly inspected not only for those problems we concerned of, but for all other possible hazards. Jeff and Connie spent as much time at our house as it was needed to complete all the aspects of required inspection. Each room, even every little space, furnace, AC unit, stove, refrigerator were inspected. Shortly after appointment I got detailed reports with photos and multiple very helpful recommendations. Now we know what exactly should be done in the house and outside in order to eliminate negative issues found by Jeff who is an expert in all aspects, related to different systems of house. Jeff and Connie are very kind and intelligent people. It was a real pleasure to spend several hours with them at our house. This appointment was life-changing for us. I highly recommend May Idoor Air Inspections to all who would like to make sure that environment of living places is safe
- Massachusetts Home InspectionsI hired David Valley for a home inspection and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. From the moment I contacted David, he was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. He made the inspection process stress-free and easy to understand.
- Omnispect Home Inspection ServicesBob is so knowledgeable, incredibly thorough, and had very useful recommendations to share about the older home I just purchased. For my informational inspection, he spent several hours combing through the entire house, taking dozens of photos, and explaining all of our systems in detail (which was so helpful because I was unfamiliar with some of them.) He arrived right on time and was so friendly and personable. We received a very clear and detailed report. I really appreciate Bob's experience and professionalism. Highly recommended
- J May Home InspectionWe couldn't be happier with the home inspection we received. We have been through multiple past home inspections and this was by far the most thorough. Mike was easy to work with to schedule the appointment, operated efficiently, and was extremely patient in explaining his findings with us and putting them in layman's terms. He gave us great recommendations both for items to address in the nearterm as well as preventative maintenance tasks to keep our home in good working order for years to come! 10/10 would recommend
- J May Home InspectionMike did a great inspection job for us. He is very knowledgeable and very thorough. We asked lots of questions and he patiently answered them all. We particularly liked how the report identified and described major vs. minor issues. In summary - an A++.
- J May Home InspectionHe was very thorough and detailed in everything he did from outside and inside. Took consideration in his recommendations that was pointed out to us during the inspection.
- J May Home InspectionMy husband and I bought our first home and the inspection was one of the things we dreaded the most. Luckily a friend recommended Mike and we couldn't be more pleased. Mike was thorough, precise, fast and on top of everything, a very nice person to work with. He even provided us with recommendations on local contractors. We will make sure to recommend his services to our friends
- Hometech Property Inspection Services, LLCPaul encompasses everything you'd want from a home inspector. Stop looking now, you found your inspector! He is detail-oriented, thorough, knowledgeable and certified with ASHI. We've used him for 2 inspections. In our first inspection, he found a costly issue with a large backyard retaining wall that was not in plain sight and was undoubtedly missed by other inspectors. He genuinely loves his job and this shows in the quality of his work. He didn't rush through our inspections; he took the time to make sure we knew the details of our new home and to answer any questions we had. As a first-time home buyer, he was a treasure trove of knowledge. He provides very detailed reports with many pictures for evidence. We felt that we knew everything about the home after going through the inspections. Paul is also uniquely knowledgeable about older homes (before 1920) and can talk at length about the progression of standards which helped us understand the state of the older home. I reached out to Paul via the website and he was very prompt in his response. He has been very responsive throughout the process as well. Paul has been communicative, reliable and on-time
- J May Home InspectionMike was great! He did a very thorough home inspection for us and made us feel very confident with our purchase. Mike is also blessed with the ability of educating. As first time home owners, we were able to learn a lot about how a home functions. I highly recommend reaching out to him for your home inspection
- Another Level Inspection LLCThey same some people are just meant to do the job they're doing...That's Jameson at Another Level Inspection. He is with out a doubt the most thorough, acknowledgeable, friendly, professional in the business. We arrived at our future home and Jameson was already on the roof. Meanwhile our relator said she hadn't seen an inspector be so thorough in 20 years. Jameson took lots of photos, which he later sent us in a detailed report of things that needed attention, including but not limited to things that would need attention 10 years from now. I still refer to that email. My husband is not handy, to say the least. Jameson taught me things about our house that day that are still helpful now, and showed me the ins and outs and every kook and cranny of the property. He really made us feel good about the purchase we were about to make and what to expect. I very much enjoy following ALI social media pages to see his posts about particular finds and what he has going on. After spending our inspection with Jameson, even in this market we would NEVER skip a home inspection. We would recommend ALI to anyone, anytime, anywhere

"I can't say enough positive things about Gary and Mike and their team. We were looking at finishing our basement with a very limited budget and really no idea how much things would cost. We literally contacted 10-15 places off of Angies List for quotes. Burroughs came in and assured us they could do it within our budget (some of the other places were 2-3 times the price for the same work). There were a few lower quotes but Burroughs went over all the details and gave us a much better comfort level with everything. We did not set a time frame for when things needed to get done, but our preference was before Christmas (3-4 weeks) which was quite aggressive to finish our entire basement. They worked very quickly, weekends and nights, and even with some last minute changes by us they finished up Christmas eve for us!
<br /> The basement came out even better than we expected. They assured us throughout the process that things would cost one more dime than everything they outlined in the contract and sure enough it didn't cost a single dime more. I was extremely impressed with the level of work, their responsiveness, work ethic, and professionalism, and they genuinely cared about making sure the finished product was everything we asked for and more.
<br /> I'm not crazy about having people in and out of my house with my wife and two young kids but Burroughs gave us a sense of comfort the entire time, you can't put a price on how important that is.
<br /> The best part of the the overall working experience for us with Burroughs is we have now found the guys we will be using for every single one of our home improvement projects going forward. I have zero need to ever use anyone else for anything, and I'm already lining up projects for them going forward.
<br /> I honestly can't say enough about these guys and I absolutely would recommend them to everyone I know.
