Response from FARO SYSTEMS INC
No inspector at Faro Systems performed an inspection at this address on this date or any date in the past 5 years. Based on the information posted in the review, it is not clear if Michael Kennedy has received and paid for services from Faro Systems, Inc. We have not been contacted by Mr. Kennedy regarding this inspection and any problems or concerns he may have. Faro Systems would like to address Mr. Kennedy's dissatisfaction, if he is, in fact, a past client.

Excellent
Description of Work: I have used Faro Systems over the course of 10 years. They provide comprehensive inspection of homes which is important before purchases. I had my single family home in Hyattsville inspected in 1998, home inspected in Takoma Park in 2006, and 3 townhomes I purchased in Arlington between June 2012 and January 2013. The inspection reports are comprehensive and have flagged issues that saved me thousands of dollars on two different occasions.

Charles was very informative and helpful, commenting throughout the inspection on aspects of home repair and maintenance that my husband and I would need to know as first-time home buyers (and dwellers--we both grew up in apartment buildings). In retrospect, I wish he had taken a closer look at the sump pump, which turned out to be a cheap model that disconnected itself and caused the basement to flood 10 months later, but it was working at the time of the inspection.
Description of Work: They did a home inspection prior to buying my house.
