Sometimes the truth hurts but if he s gonna save you thousands of dollars for a mistake over looked I would say he s well worth it.

Do not hire this man. He was negative, reproachful, and stayed way too long in my house (He sat down at my dining room table and told me about his troubles for an hour). He ripped my front porch screen with his ladder and down-played the damage. He did not pay to fix or replace it. He took paneling down to see my AC unit, then put the panels back upside down. He did not have one positive thing to say about my house. Please, dont hire him.

It is nice to feel safe hiring an HONEST individual who believes in communicating the truth whether good or bad. Mr. Marchi did an excellent job inspecting my home. He mentioned some tips to improve better drainage. He communicates well. I will use him again if needed. Thank you Mr. Marchi.

Very knowledgeable and experienced. Would reccomend this gentleman to anyone of my family or friends. Does not beat around the bush or give you any useless information. Very thorough and explained the reason for checking certain things, giving me a better understanding of the entire inspection. I personally had a better piece of mind knowing the money I spend was being utilized efficiently with such a great hire. 5.0 rating for sure.
