"Very satisfied with the whole process. Gerald did an excellent job. Arrived punctually and observed COVID protocols. Explained clearly what he was going to do and how. Showed us preliminary findings, and obtained our permission to take samples for lab testing. We felt he listened to, and responded to, our concerns. Overall a very professional experience. We’ve now received the written report and feel we got what we wanted: an objective analysis of the problem and information we need to remedy it."

"We had pest and ant problems in a 1930’s home we recently purchased. It had been vacant for some time. Part of the solution was to redo the crawl space. Andy Construction gave us a very reasonable quote for removing what was there and installing the vapor barriers, replacing spotty floor insulation, sealing cracks and new access doors. The crew was courteous, on time, and left no mess. We haven’t seen a mouse since and the ants are getting under control. Our floors and home are so much warmer! We heartily recommend Andy’s Construction."

"Patriot Roofing is an excellent company. Everyone that I came in contact with were very professional and helpful. I had an old shake roof nearing the end of it's life span, and it was not cost effective to repair and maintain. After several bids from other companies, I decided on Patriot Roofing, even though it was on the high end of the price scale, there were several things I considered in choosing Patriot. Keith, my roofing consultant did an excellent job in providing all the information needed for me to make a decision. He did a preliminary inspection, provided me with a binder which showed pictures of the old roof, and evaluation about the roof's condition. It also provided me detailed information on the scope of the project to replace my roof with a new one, and a lot of other useful information. Another thing I took in consideration was that Patriot does not subcontract the actual work on replacing the roof, they will provide a lien release from their supplier. They also provide information on the company's license, insurance coverage, and contractors bond. I was given a start date, delayed by weather, common around here at this time of year. I was informed of the new start date, by phone, and by letter. Miguel my project manager, arrived with his crew, made sure that barriers were set up to protect my property, addressed any concerns I might have. At the end of the work day the roof was protected against unforeseen elements, the driveway was cleaned and construction debris was put in the trailer. Miguel kept me updated on the progress status through out the project. He was very easy to talk to and answered all my questions. The crew was without a doubt very professional and hard working. They worked together as a team, and obviously were well trained. The project was completed in four days, I expected it to take a lot longer. Miguel made sure that the clean up was done, showed me pictures of the completed roof which looked amazing. A few days later Eberardo came out and inspected the roof. He was very thorough and answered all my questions. I was given a copy of the Patriot roofing warranty, and later received the warranty from the shingle manufacturer. "Great Company," I would not hesitate to recommend Patriot Roofing to anyone."

"Curtis is an anomaly among contractors. He arrived exactly when he said he would. Did a thorough inspection of the job. Provided a reasonable quote and had the work done in a timely manner. Half the contractors I contacted never replied and two never showed up for the appointments they set. I highly recommend DHT Construction and Roofing."

"We were so impressed with Blake who inspected our home today. He worked for a couple of hours and determined our home was safe and sound, and very dry. We were so thankful that he gave us an honest answer, even though it meant no sale for him. We would highly recommend them for an honest thorough inspection."

Home Inspection questions, answered by experts

Full home electrical inspections are mandatory if you’re buying a new home, but if you’re just looking for a safety checkup, you have some flexibility. If you don’t have any concerns and your property is relatively new, a basic inspection is usually sufficient. If it’s been a long time since your home was last inspected, or it’s an older home, a full home inspection can help catch any concerns that may fly under the radar.

There are some instances where a buyer may want to skip a home inspection, but this is not usually recommended. While home inspections are not always required as part of the homebuying or selling process, they are in the best interest of buyers. If you choose to skip the home inspection, be prepared to discover a home’s hidden secrets on your own over time.

Generally, no. Most homeowners insurance policies will not cover polybutylene pipes because they are considered defective and high-risk. Damage from these pipes, such as leaks, may not be covered as it often doesn't fall under the category of "sudden and accidental" damage. Some insurance companies may even threaten to terminate a policy if the pipes are not replaced. While you should review your personal policy for specific details, you will most likely need to pay for the pipe replacement yourself. It is advisable to prioritize repiping your home to avoid costly, uncovered water damage.

Crawl spaces are prone to issues caused by excess humidity and improper ventilation, but that doesn’t mean you should avoid buying a house with a crawl space. A home that is encapsulated and well-maintained shouldn’t have any more issues than a slab or basement home.

Do a little background research on a few certified HVAC companies before choosing the best one for your job. Look for things like how long the company has been in business, and check their online customer reviews.

When choosing an inspector, also ask to see a sample inspection report. A professional inspection report should detail all the areas and components of an HVAC system, provide findings, and include any recommendations for repairs. Finally, find a contractor you’ll feel comfortable with who can address any questions or concerns you may have after the inspection.
