Phil was a great inspector from start to finish. The first time I called him he asked for a bunch…read moreof details about the house and immediately started walking us through what he will be taking a look at given the age of the house. He walked us through all of the services he provides and the cost and answered all of our questions in detail. Other inspectors gave very brief descriptions of services provided, so we felt more comfortable going with Phil. We had the general inspection, wood destroying insect, radon, sewer camera, and oil tank sweep all done through Phil. On the day of the inspection, we were half an hour early but Phil was already there looking at the exterior of the house. He explained his process and invited us to shadow him and ask questions about anything we didn't understand. He was very detailed in his inspection, and took the time to explain to us any issues that needed immediate attention. The inspection lasted almost 4 hours, which I guess is uncommon because both real estate agents thought it would only take 2 hours. We closed on the house last week and have used the report a number of times when hiring contractors. Phil pointed out some structural issues in the basement which we are now getting fixed, and are slowly working through the rest of the items in his report. His detailed report makes it easy for us to send to other contractors so they know the scope of the issue. We would highly recommend Phil for any first time homebuyer with lots of questions about their new house!

You can't get any better than Veriguard when it comes to home inspectors. Phil is prompt,…read moreprofessional and totally knows what he is doing. I like that he categorizes items into what needs to be Fixed immediately and what should be fixed down the line. In our case, the sellers agent was on Phil's back, almost sort of pressuring him- Phil was unbothered and focused on our questions and concerns and buyers. Would recommend Phil to anyone purchasing a home in the area and would definitely use him again if I purchased another home.

WARNING!!!!! The inspector raced through the inspection of my home before purchase and failed to…read moreidentify major issues ... corroded wiring and rusted electrical panels, exposed chimney vent (easily visible). Now I'm stuck with thousands of dollars of bills to repair after the purchase of the home. When I asked the company to compensate via insurance, they stated I signed an agreement which I can only claim damages up to the amount of the inspection fee $450!!!. They screwed me and cost me money on the home price as well as repair and refuse to make me whole! Mark Bendit, shame on you! Please check the agreement before you sign. It says you waive your right to be compensated above the inspection fee if they are negligent!! Do not sign! Do not use their services!!! UPDATE!! Based on owners response: The owner didn't refer me to his insurance as he claims. He referred me to his lawyer, who stated they were not obligated to pay me for their negligence. They will only return my inspection fee if I sign a release form. Mark, please don't make me post the release form next. Having your insurance fix the damage would have been the honorable thing to do.

I am in the process of buying my first single family house. On top of a home inspection, my friend…read moreand real estate agent also recommended that I perform an oil tank sweep and a radon test. Finding a vendor that can 'do-it-all' was a head-pulling process until I found Mikhail (he goes by 'Michael') who said yes to all three. He showed up on time, immediately ran a ground scan performing the oil tank sweep, thoroughly went through the house for the inspection, and left a radon test kit in the basement to collect an air sample, all for about two hours. Very next day, I received three reports at 9pm: 1. Inspection 2. Termites 3. Oil Tank Sweep Currently awaiting a radon test result. Since collecting a sample takes two days and the sample has to be shipped to a lab, several more days are needed. He's done a great job and I highly recommend hiring him for your due diligence. Thanks, Michael! Dan

Accurate Inspections and Michael have a reputation of a very thorough inspector, which sometimes…read morecauses controversy, so I hope I can clarify the situation a little. Michael provides a super thorough inspection and pays attention even to the smallest details. He points out loose stones in the stairs, narrow parking spots that claim to fit more cars than it is realistically possible, stair handles placed uncomfortably, among other things. He also points out important things that are done not up to code and can cause serious issues down the line. It is a responsibility of a buyer to evaluate the findings and apply them, whether in negotiations with the seller, or just for your own reference later to understand what requires fixing and how urgent it is. And knowing that in advance, I think I received a superior service, because thanks to Michael, not only I received a concession from a buyer to fix an improperly installed, though working, garage door, but also avoided troubles with insurance company later by requesting asbestos removal and obtaining corresponding certificate. Michael's commission may be a bit higher than the market, but it's well worth it.

I hired this home inspector after putting an offer on a house. The home inspector shows up and…read morebegins the inspection. After some time I notice that the inspector is wreaking the smell of alcohol. Inspector concludes, creates reports and so forth. Owner of the inspection company asked me for a review so I brought all this to his attention including the fact that no one ever answers the phone when I call. Commenced with closing and moved in and found 1) 3fl tub was never connected to a drain after opening ceiling 2) 2nd floor tub doesn't drain, completely blocked 3) 3rd floor radiator valve leaking at valve. 4) 1st floor tub draining very slow but draining 5) The Y on sewer drain pipe leaking and lastly Found waste sitting idly in the sump not draining to outside to the sewer. Yes, a home inspector absolutely must check that sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets are draining properly, as slow or backed-up drains indicate potential clogs, venting issues, or problems with the main sewer line, which can be costly repairs. They run water, flush toilets, and check for adequate water pressure and flow to identify these issues, along with leaks, cracks, and proper fixture securement, ensuring the drainage, waste, and vent (DWV) system functions as expected. It's my belief that this company was negligent and also I forgot to mention the owner's response to his guy coming in inebriated 8:00am in the morning was that they have a side business making wine SMH. I asked the guy for a refund because they obviously didn't do the job in which he explained that he would have to go to his insurance. This guy came here inebriated didn't do his job, charged me for a radon test which they never came back to pickup. The cost of the repairs for these plumbing issues are going to be in the thousands and I asked this guy for a simple refund and he basically said no. This was my fist purchase and I definitely don't recommend this business to anyone and in addition I would suggest carefully familiarizing yourself with the process for a successful home inspection. Words can't express how disappointed I am. None of this even includes the price of dry wall, labor and paint do your research before settling and don't end up like me.

He then went over the key points with us and provided a detailed 95 page report with pictures and description of each and every issue, as well as a separate short 7 page summary report. I would recommend Clever Inspections to my relatives and best friends. I am sure you will be satisfied with the service. I compared prices with three other providers and Clever Inspections, though not the lowest, provided the most thorough estimate and they more than lived up to their promise.

He came on time, communicated clearly, checked everything in the unit very carefully, and delivered us a high quality report with not only a list of any things he found but also recommendations on how to maintain or fix findings.

On top of this, once we moved in to the unit we had some questions about his findings and tips for fixing some home issues and he thoughtfully helped advise us. Value (5/5): The value and price for the service was competitive and I highly recommend him.
