I highly recommend Liz Martin for home inspections. She was extremely thorough and made me feel…read morevery comfortable with the process. As an inexperienced buyer she helped me understand the house and offered suggestions on what needs to be fixed soon, how to maintain things, etc. My inspection report is already printed out as a helpful reference for the house. She clearly understands what she is doing and I feel very confident with her advice.

The inspection was thorough, and Liz walked us through every single part of our house in a gentle manner. There was nothing scary or overwhelming - she made observations and offered some suggestions on what we might want to do, or what we don't absolutely need to do before moving in. It's clear Liz's goal is to complete the inspection, while also helping us to understand how to live in the house. I'd recommend her to anyone!

The inspection was extremely detailed and took about two hours. He took air samples.. tested areas where it looked like there had been a leak and I received a very detailed and professional report with photos putting my mind at ease and allowing me to pursue mold removal with the condo board. In the end, the mold and irritants were limited to the attic and not the remainder of the unit.

I needed a home inspection in a pinch (1 week turnaround) and in a new area that I haven't lived…read morebefore. Doing a web search, Metro was one of many home inspection companies that had a straight-forward website and online booking. However, what set Metro apart from the others is that they listed the available days and time slots that they had inspectors available. They even had the name of the most probable (subject to change) inspector to make the appointment. That was important because I knew when the home we were considering was available to be opened, and I could quickly line up a day/time that worked out for both sides. After the appointment was set, I was called by one of the staff. She called to "talk me out of" the radon and pest inspection services (extra charge) because of the type of home and area it was located, those services were not valuable. The cherry on top was that for the month, they were giving a "gold" discount on the overall cost. Inspection went as planned and I received the final report by the end of the same day. I never had to state that I needed a quick turnaround, but I get the sense they knew based on the dates of our real estate transaction. Just superb service, and really made me feel I could not get as good of a service with any of the other inspection companies I was considering. If we ever buy another property in the metro Boston area, I'm using Metro 100%!

He…read morearrived right on time, let me know what to expect during the inspection, and was very knowledgeable and patient with me as I asked plenty of questions. The inspection was very thorough, and Tod took his time to ensure he didn't miss anything that could cause issues down the road. The resulting report was delivered in less than 24 hours after the inspection, and Tod prioritized the issues based on criticality/safety so it was clear which repairs needed to be done promptly and which ones could wait. I highly recommend Tod and his company for your inspection needs and will be using their services again in the future.

We had a really wonderful experience with Harold as our home inspector. We hired him to inspect a…read moresingle family home for us, and he was responsive and highly professional -- but with a sense of humor. He arrived at the house before we did, and had filled out all of the necessary paperwork to get the inspection rolling the night before. The inspection itself was incredibly thorough, which was wonderful, because as we went through the house with Harold, it was clear that the house needed more work than we had thought when we made our offer. There were many problems (costly problems that also would have grown into health hazards) he pointed out to us -- but that had been concealed to the untrained eye. Harold emailed us an extremely detailed report later that night with pictures, and clear language and recommendations. We determined that we were not going to buy the house, and we have Harold to thank for helping us to avoid huge issues down the road. Back into the housing market now, which stinks -- but we will absolutely hire Mt. Vernon Inspection Associates when we find the next house!
