I hired Louis twice to inspect two different homes. Louis is thorough, well informed and passionate about his work, and protecting his clients. He takes his time during an inspection, refusing to be rushed by agents, etc., and he ensures that his clients understand what he uncovers about the home. I highly recommend Louis.

I never thought I'd say this about a home inspection but I had a wonderful time during the inspection last week. Mr Csak was very professional throughout the inspection while being so personable, answering all of our questions (and there were many!). His responses to our questions were very detailed and technical, if that's your thing. And if it's not your thing, Mr Csak would ask you "do you want the long or short answer?" He was very detail oriented and walked us through what were the high priority fixes in the property vs ones that could wait. He turned around the report within 48 hours and the report was very well written, had tons of pictures, easy to understand, and had clear actionable items. I also greatly appreciate him telling us that we're free to call him up with any questions pertaining to the property after the fact. One thing I would point out to future customers is that even though credit cards are technically accepted, Mr Csak really prefers Zelle/Venmo (which is technically cash). So be mindful of this especially if you need to plan out your cashflow when purchasing your home. All in all, I would 100% recommend Mr Csak for your home inspection needs. I definitely will be hiring him again for future inspection/consulting needs.

Louise is the best in his class of work. We hired him for 2nd time and will continue to do so until we have completed our first property purchase. He will give you unbiased view and honest review along with financial review for potential profit, savings or loss which is extremely helpful. I highly recommend hiring Louise from Advant Engineering. Itâ s well worth it.

A Stellar Inspection Experience by an Expert Structural Engineer I recently had the pleasure of working with an exceptional inspector who also happens to be a structural engineer. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I was with their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail throughout the entire inspection process. Their wealth of knowledge and experience in the field of structural engineering proved invaluable, making them stand out among other inspectors. From the moment they arrived at the property, it was evident that they held a deep understanding of the intricacies involved in assessing the structural integrity of a building. Their meticulous approach instilled confidence, reassuring me that no stone would be left unturned during the inspection. Throughout the inspection, the structural engineer exhibited a keen eye for identifying potential flaws or weaknesses within the building's structure. Their expertise allowed them to pinpoint even the most subtle signs of structural issues that might have otherwise gone unnoticed. They thoroughly examined the foundation, walls, beams, and other vital components, leaving no room for doubt and ensuring a comprehensive assessment. What truly set this inspector apart was their exceptional ability to communicate their findings in a clear and understandable manner. As a layperson, I appreciated their efforts to explain complex concepts and technical jargon in simple terms, enabling me to fully grasp the implications of the inspection results. Their patience and willingness to answer my questions demonstrated their commitment to providing a thorough and transparent service. Moreover, the inspector's report was a masterpiece of clarity and detail. It included a comprehensive summary of the findings, accompanied by annotated photographs that highlighted areas of concern. The report not only served as an invaluable reference but also facilitated discussions and negotiations with contractors, as it provided precise documentation of the structural issues that needed attention. In addition to their technical expertise, the structural engineer's dedication to customer satisfaction was truly remarkable. They went above and beyond to ensure that all my concerns were addressed, providing valuable recommendations for remediation and offering guidance on preventative maintenance. Their commitment to client satisfaction and safety was evident throughout the entire process. Overall, my experience with this inspector, who is also a structural engineer, was exceptional. Their professionalism, expertise, and ability to communicate complex concepts made the inspection process a seamless and enlightening one. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a thorough and reliable inspection, coupled with the insights and expertise of a seasoned structural engineer.

Louis is incredibly thorough, enjoys teaching his clients about owning a home, how to observe any current/future issues to look out for, observes coopsâ  financials, mechanical rooms, and rooftops in addition, as well as provides expert feedback in extensive inspection reporting thereafter which can help in negotiations. He really went above and beyond and will absolutely be reaching out to him again in the future.

We hired Louis Csak to perform a structural inspection of a home we were looking to purchase in Oct 2022. Our last experience with home inspections (with a firm in Rockland County) was extremely poor and they missed several structural issues. We wanted someone certified in structural evaluations, and Mr. Csak came highly referred to us. Indeed Mr. Csak understood our concerns immediately and was extremely patient explaining what he would be looking for (and how) during our initial call. On inspection day, Louis was so thorough in his approach - explaining what he was seeing, what it could mean, and what (if anything) we would need to focus on or inspect further if we purchased the property. We learned so much about our house from this inspection. This was not a cursory check-the-box and move on type of evaluation; every area of the house was examined and detailed. It was as if Louis was buying the house for himself, he took so much care in the process. We honestly could not give Louis Csak a higher recommendation. Heâ s extremely knowledgeable, observant, and thorough. And in a world where many who are this qualified can err on the side of arrogant, he combines his complete professionalism with an affable personality and sense of humor.

Louis is an amazing inspector and you canâ t beat that you get his expertise as an inspector but also an engineer for the price of one. He performed a very thorough home inspection and thanks to him pointing out all the details I was able to determine the right decision in the home purchase process. Thank you Louis
