• 2015 Super Service Award Winner - 9th Consecutive Year! • 20+ Years of Inspection Experience • Cost is determined by the job • Locally Owned & Operated • Owner, Alex Steinberg currently serves as Vice President of the Board - ASHI New England Chapter • ASHI Member- Certified Inspector #205136 • NEPMA Certified Wood-Destroying Insect Inspector • Licensed by the State of MA - License #: 483

"We used Alex for an inspection after we had already purchased our house. He was very thorough and personable. He gave us a very detailed report, which included many actionable items to improve our new house. He was very knowledgable. It was money well-spent to get to know our new house and to ensure that we met all the safety requirements to feel comfortable living there with our family. I predict that the knowledge that he transferred to us will end up saving us money when we meet with contractors. Thank you!"

Home Automation questions, answered by experts

While a strong conventional deadbolt offers enough security for most homeowners, if you’re looking for extra features beyond just simple locking, smart deadbolts are the way to go. Smart deadbolts allow for keyless entry using your phone or a code, remote access in case someone is locked out, and features like temporary access codes, automatic locking, tamper alerts and entry-exit monitoring. Smart deadbolts also come with downsides: they rely on batteries and wireless networks and are potentially vulnerable to hacking by skilled home intruders.

Smart locks offer around the same level of safety as conventional locks with keys. The best way to secure your door locks is to combine routine locking mechanisms with other home safety features, like lighting, motion sensors, security cameras, and window and door sensors. 

Smart locks have the upper hand when it comes to convenience—you won't have to worry about your key not turning in the lock or fumbling around in your bag for your keys—but beyond that, any door with deadbolts will offer a similar degree of security.

There are two budget-friendly options: You can go the piecemeal route or install a self-monitored system. The piece-by-piece option involves purchasing and installing one item at a time, such as a video doorbell, and waiting before integrating additional components. Self-monitoring systems are often wireless with minimal monthly subscription fees, and cost less than extensive, multi-camera systems.

This is the topic of much debate, though there is no “better,” as it depends on personal preferences. Some of the components of a wireless system keep working when the power goes out, as they are battery-powered. On the other hand, a wireless system typically connects to your modem and router. Wired systems use landlines to communicate, which never go out on their own unless they’re physically cut.

Yes, many services offer motorized or remote-controlled shutter options for convenience.
