ValueGuard Home Inspection

My inspector name was Joe he did a very thorough job down to the flying Droid to check the roof i felt very secure and in good hands he was detail oriented and spent a little over an hour combing through everything i will definitely be spreading the word about this company. Thank you again !!

First-class service start to finish! Jim was great to work with through quoting and scheduling and Tyler was fantastic during the home inspection, taking the time to walk us through every detail of his findings. The final reports were detailed and gave us everything we needed address any items of concern.

Excellent job- friendly efficient and effective

I hired ValueGuard to do a home inspection for our new house based on their reviews. I agree with the many, many others! I had a quote right away, and the inspection was scheduled and completed within days. Mike was so pleasant, walking me through all of the issues as he encountered them. He explained things in ways that I could follow along, never once making me feel like I was incompetent. He offered suggestions as well, and gave me his cell phone number for any follow-up questions I might have. I found myself enjoying the whole experience, and learning a thing or two about older Philly row homes! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! This is a family company with technicians that have been working there for many years, showing how reputable and fair the company is.

Excellent service. I needed the inspection done immediately and was scheduled for the day after I reached out to them

The guy Robert Reilly is great. He is easy going and professional. He did a thorough inspection which gives me a lot of information. I would highly recommend him.

As first time home buyers, we were definitely a bit nervous for our inspection. We bought a home built in 1925, so it was very important to us to have a thorough inspection. Mike from ValueGuard was above and beyond what we were expecting! He was kind, extremely thorough and attentive to detail, and encouraged us to ask as many questions as we needed along the way. We’d absolutely recommend this company (and specifically Mike!) to anyone looking for an inspector. We had a 12/10 experience!

I have used Valueguard Inspections twice now and both times was impressed by the timelinesses of their response as well as the thoroughness and knowledge of the inspectors, Steve and Joe.

Would hire again quick and responsive thorough inspector.

Tyler came out with just a few days notice and I couldn’t be happier with the thoroughness of the inspection and overall professionalism. He patiently answered any question I had and I felt in great hands going through this process for my first time.

Had an amazing experience with Pete our inspector from ValueGuard!!! He was extremely thorough, polite and explained everything amazingly well for us!! Thank you so much!!

As a real estate agent, I have been through many home inspections with ValueGuard but I wanted to specifically highlight Michael Pistor. He was incredibly knowledgable and shared a ton of useful information with the home buyers and with me during the inspection. He was not an alarmist which is also invaluable. The home buyers mentioned a handful of times how thorough they felt he was conducting his inspection and on top of all of the professionalism, his personality was quite easy going. I would recommend Mike over and over again, and I will certainly request him in future inspections.

Valueguard was professional and thorough. During my inspection I had a lot of questions and Mike was extremely patient and pleasant. He was able to make complex information accessible and understandable for me.

We were delighted by our experience with Michael Pistor inspecting a Philly rowhouse we were looking to buy. He was thoughtful, knowledgeable, happy to share his experience and expertise, and straightforward where a question was outside of his scope. He spent hours with us on site looking at everything thoroughly and discussing his observations, and the final report was complete, well documented, and delivered quickly. We enthusiastically recommend Michael to anyone looking for an inspection.

Everything went great. The inspection was easy to schedule. The Inspector was on time and explained everything as we went through the house.

They were on time, clean, thorough, very professional. Everything you could ask of home inspectors.

Working with the ValueGuard team made everything a breeze for my home inspection. I found them to professional and thorough. Prompt responses, easy to schedule online tool, and timely team. The inspector, Mike, was especially wonderful for offering me education on the things he was catching during the inspection which made me feel empowered and confident about the process. I can't recommend - or thank -- this team enough.

Valuegard does detailed, meticulous inspections and has excellent customer service. I have used them four times and all the inspections and reports were outstanding. Inspector Reid Stevers was referred to me by my previous real estate agent, and I have used him ever since. Deeply knowledgeable, thorough and always willing to explain issues in detail to a first time home buyer like me. He provided me absolutely invaluable knowledge not only for purchase, but also long term maintenance of the house. Also, he never made me feel belittled, as no question was too basic. After submitting the report, Reid talked to me at length and answered every query. Working with Valuegard was a great experience, and I can’t imagine buying a home with them.

Michael Baltrush was very thourough during the inspection and explained everything well. The inspection report has estimates as well and that helps to understand the costs to fix any issues.

Michael Bluestein did an excellent job he was straightforward with the pros and cons of the property and what needed to be done down the road. I'm glad I chose ValueGuard for the home inspection you guys never fail and are very professional I would recommend your services to anyone that is looking to purchase whether a first-time home buyer or your next one. Thank you.

We were very impressed with and grateful to our inspector (Mike). His thoroughness inspired so much confidence. He helped us get a handle on both the high-priority and low-priority issues in the home we’re hoping to buy (an old Victorian, being sold as-is), while also making that information digestible and not too overwhelming. He was sure to highlight the virtues and strong points of the property, which was also helpful to hear. He went meticulously from top to bottom of the house; he was amazingly articulate about each detail, in a way that made clear that there was a wealth of knowledge and experience behind all his observations. After this inspection, we felt like we were able to make an educated choice in moving forward with our home purchase. While there are definitely some repairs ahead of us, we now know what we’re getting into and what we need to do. We feel confident approaching those improvements with Mike’s report in hand.

Value Guard makes scheduling an appointment EASY with its online scheduler. We were able to choose our inspector, the time and the inspections my clients wanted done. The online invoicing was swift and safe. The inspection itself was fantastic- Cory explained many systems to my first time homebuyer in easy to understand language. He was there early to get all exterior drone footage so we were able to use our time inside the home wisely. Fantastic experience and I will use him again!

Mike was extremely helpful during our home inspection. He was thorough with the walkthrough, notes, and explanations and helped my husband and I make the most educated decision for buying our home. We know exactly what the house needs and how to move forward with repairs, thank you again!

Working with this company was great. Their office staff was friendly and patient, answering my questions about what they offer or not especially considering I wanted a pre-offer inspection. When I was ready to hire them, they were able to arrange for an inspection on very short notice: I called them around 4pm one day and they had an inspector at the house before 9am the next day! The inspector, Cory, was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, and patient. He came with all the gear he'd need, including an infrared detector which was helpful. He made quick progress through the inspection but was thorough, and he took time patiently to zoom in on key areas or issues he noticed or that I asked about. He was generous with his time and knowledge, and he was clear about the limits of what he knows or can report on. In the end I had much more clarity and confidence about the good and bad of the home. To top it all off, knowing that I was on a tight deadline to decide on an offer, they got a high quality and thorough inspection report PDF over to me in just an hour after the inspection. I'm very impressed and thankful to have found this company and inspector - I would highly recommend them to anyone in southeast PA.

We hired Robert from ValueGuard to do our first inspection, and we are so thankful we did. He was able to identify a number of issues that made buying the home untenable. He walked us through every single detail from roof to basement, and he provided a fantastic report with pictures and details that we could actually understand. We ended up terminating that sale, and when we found a new home, we hired Robert again. Just like the first time, he was incredibly meticulous, and this time the house was great! Robert and ValueGuard will always be our go to for inspections. We can’t thank them enough.
