"Hired Arthur for my pre-purchase home inspection and he was nothing short of fantastic. I gave Arthur a days notice for the inspection and he professionally accommodated his schedule for the appointment. He supplied a very detailed and descriptive home inspection and provided his final report a day later."

"We hired Arthur for the inspection on a two-family brick home in Queens, and I am glad we did. He showed up on time, walked the whole property methodically, and did not rush through anything. The report was detailed, professionally written with photos and clear explanations of what each issue actually meant, along with helpful guidance. He was upfront that a couple of things (moisture around one foundation wall, some wear on the boiler) warranted a specialist opinion, rather than trying to guess or downplay it. He also took the time to actually walk us through the findings afterward instead of just emailing the report and disappearing. As first-time buyers, that mattered a lot. He explained things in plain language and never made us feel rushed or like we could not ask further questions. Highly recommend if you want someone who is genuinely thorough and communicates clearly, not just someone checking boxes."

"I hired Mr. Csak as a consultant to advise me on structural improvements for my home. He did an excellent job. He had a very organized approach. We walked the exterior of the property first and along the way he pointed out all the key issues. Then we did the same with the interior. Louis didn’t just focus on the site of the proposed improvements but he evaluated the entire property, so that he could give me reasoned, detailed advice about my project. He understood the big picture, but he also got down on his hands and knees to take very precise measurements, when necessary. He was very focused on my safety in the home and made sure to test for radon, even though that was outside the scope of the engagement. Since Louis is a professional, licensed engineer you are getting someone with deep technical expertise who also has years of practical applications. Louis is very honest and forthright. He is a true pleasure to work with and I would use him again. I recommend him most highly."

"Bob was very thorough during the home inspection. As a first time home buyer he did an excellent job explaining his process and what he was looking for. He gave helpful tips regarding maintenance and management of a home. While I did not utilize this service, he does provide information sessions for first time home buyers and gives a step-by-step process in what to look for and expect when buying a home. I had post-inspection follow-up questions and his response was timely and very helpful."

Home Inspection FAQs, answered by experts

Replacing older chimneys or fireplaces, like wood-burning stoves, with something more eco-friendly can actually increase the value of your home. Some homeowners opt to remove chimneys as they pursue LEED certification, which may also increase the value of your home. But in general, many potential buyers actually look for operational fireplaces in homes, so removing a chimney and fireplace could decrease your home’s value by up to $5,000.

Any unexplained smell in your house should be investigated. However, some home odors are "red flag" worrisome because they pose immediate health and safety risks. Odors should be taken seriously when accompanied by headaches, nausea, or lightheadedness. If you smell an egg-like aroma, this is probably natural gas. You should leave the home immediately, and  contact your gas company.  

A standard roof inspection typically takes one to two hours. The exact duration can vary, ranging from as little as 30 minutes to as long as four hours, depending on several factors. These include the roof's size, complexity, condition, and accessibility. Inspections for very large homes or those with extensive damage will take longer. It's a good practice to ask for a time estimate when you hire an inspector to ensure enough time is allotted for a thorough evaluation.

Homes should be checked for mold annually, especially if you live in an area with high humidity or frequent rainfall. Inspections are crucial following flooding, roof leaks, or plumbing issues. More frequent checks are necessary if your home has a history of mold problems or water damage. Regular inspections help detect mold early, preventing costly remediation and minimizing health risks, especially in moisture-prone areas such as basements and bathrooms.

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it. 

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required.
