The report was thorough, easy to read, color-coded, with detailed notes and photographs, and even provided recommendations for professional help with all reported issues.

After the inspection outside the home revealed substantial and expensive issues with the siding, roof, deck, and more that had not been previously disclosed, we determined without even finishing the inspection that there were too many safety issues with the home for us to move forward. His detailed, honest assessments likely saved us hundreds of thousands of dollars (and a lot of headaches). He even offered to charge us only a cancelation fee (rather than the full inspection fee) and wrote a summary of his findings up to the point we canceled for us to terminate our contract. As we continue our home search, we will hire Ed for any future inspections without any hesitation.

I recently purchased an 1860's house in Vermont, which I had inspected prior to buying. The home…read moreinspector, who had been recommended by my real estate agent, did not find any major issues. Nor were there any problems disclosed in the Seller's Property Information Report. After moving in, however, I discovered that the slate roof is leaking in several places, the tar/gravel roofs are beyond their lifetime, and the chimney is at risk of toppling over. I decided to have a second home inspection done to see what else the inspector "missed" - he says on his website that he is a structural engineer, is qualified in plumbing and electrical and has his Vermont Property Inspector License, as well as other accreditations. The second home inspector, Patrick Richardson, spent more than 3 hours going through the entire house, interior and exterior, with me. He found major issues with the foundation, rotting support beams in the basement, confirmed that the chimney needs replacing, the state roof is failing. He also found serious problems with the plumbing, knob and tube wiring in the attic and basement, a bulkhead well that is collapsing, to list just a few of his findings. It is beyond me how the first inspector could have missed all this... Patrick's report was well written and detailed, with clear photos of the problem areas of the house. He spelled out what needed immediate attention, as well as recommendations for future maintenance and repairs. It was not the generic and superficial report that I got from the first inspector. I cannot speak highly enough about Patrick. He does a very detailed job and is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He spends the time to answer all your questions, and it shows that he cares about doing the best job possible. Had I hired Patrick for the initial home inspection, I never would have purchased the house. If you are thinking of buying a house, you will want an honest and thorough inspection by Richardson Home Inspection. You will not have any surprises if you do move forward with the purchase.
