TLDR version: I'm very glad I chose Green House Home Inspection (GHHI) and was incredibly impressed…read morewith Jared's thoroughness during the walkthrough. Highly recommend him if you need a home inspection as a buyer! Now, for the lengthier review. My agent provided me with a list of home inspection companies, and after reviewing each company's website, GHHI stood out. I quickly understood what the inspection included, that the team had the necessary qualifications and certifications, and that they were a BBB accredited business with an A+ rating (I verified!). My husband and I had a laundry list of inspections we wanted done, and GHHI was able to provide most of them for reasonable, additional fees; at the time of this review, they also offer wood destroying organism inspections, radon air tests ($150), and comprehensive water tests ($250, includes water quality and radon). The total cost of the home inspection + all add-ons for a 2-story home with an unfinished basement was $1,125. This felt incredibly reasonable, and it was also very convenient to schedule so many inspections with one company. I've only had one other home inspection experience as a buyer, and while I remember that report being detailed and somewhat helpful, the inspector did everything himself for 3+ hours, so we had no context for the details he shared and we felt quite disconnected from the process. Jared (the owner of GHHI) takes a totally different approach, and I'm here for it. Jared arrived early and started to walk the property, and once I arrived, he explained his style and how he prefers for folks to walk with him. I was impressed with how thorough he was and his multi-tasking; not only was he performing the inspection, but taking photos and notes, educating me, and answering my questions. As an aside: I'm interested in learning about my future home but this is absolutely not my wheelhouse, and I think Jared did a great job of explaining things in layman's terms. The inspection took roughly 4 hours; I had a septic inspection at the same time, and Jared was very accommodating (and helpful!) when we needed to stop and chat with that inspector. Jared conducted our home inspection in the morning and we received the report that night! I appreciated that photos were included (for evidence purposes but to also jog my memory) and a rating system was employed. A Table of Contents made it easy to jump around. I think the report provided helpful general information as well as notes about recommendations and issues. While the amount of text was more on the concise side, I felt it was adequate and professional. Jared really went above and beyond during the inspection itself, so I think a review really needs to take that process and those conversations into account. I will take Jared's combo approach, which includes a thorough inspection with the client + conversations + a report with photos, over another inspector's approach that is quite removed and only includes a report. Again, I highly recommend Green House Home Inspection, specifically Jared. He was incredibly personable and ensured the inspection process was educational, and dare I say, enjoyable!

I am a real estate agent and have seen Tom Pelletier at Alpha perform inspections both for my…read moreclients and for buyers of my listings. After seeing how thoroughly he inspects every inch of the house and how detailed his reports are I chose Tom to inspect a house I am purchasing for myself in Manchester, NH. It felt great to know I was getting the best assessment possible of my new home's condition. Aside from the inspection itself, Alpha is very easy to work with and has an easy-to-use online system for scheduling and payment. I highly recommend their services.

I hired Alpha Inspection for a commercial property inspection about 6 months prior to this message…read moreand paid approximately $2,000 for what I expected to be a professional and informative evaluation. After closing on the property, I discovered during the permitting process that the entire electrical system had to be replaced to meet building code requirements--resulting in an unexpected cost of approximately $52,000. When I contacted Alpha Inspection, I was told they "do not perform code compliance inspections." That response was shocking. The report I received largely consisted of observations that were already visible to anyone walking through the building and failed to identify or even warn about a major issue that led to a massive financial loss. For a $2,000 inspection, I expected far more than a surface-level report with no real value. Even more concerning is the complete lack of professionalism in their follow-up. After I spoke directly with the owner, he told me he would investigate and call me back. That never happened. I waited a week, sent a follow-up text, and still received no response. As a business owner myself, I understand that mistakes can happen--but ignoring a client after such a serious issue is unacceptable. This experience has cost me $52,000 in unexpected upgrades and left me with zero confidence in the value or accountability of their services. I strongly advise anyone considering Alpha Inspection to think twice and to hire licensed specialists separately for critical systems, because this inspection did not provide the level of diligence or responsibility one would reasonably expect.

If you want your home inspection to be done thoroughly and professionally then these guys are your…read morebest bet. They did the home inspection for the house we just moved into and they surpassed my expectations with the time they took, the helpfulness in regards to not just the items that needed to be addressed, but they also took the time to explain how some complicated systems (to the untrained person) in the house run, and how to maintain those systems effectively. I had two guys spend over two hours inspecting every nook and cranny of my new house, and I also cannot say enough about the excellent demeanor both inspectors took while explaining an issue. Rather than making the process of inspections terrifying and upsetting (which trust me it can be) they were to the point and very straight forward. They presented the problem and the suggested solution all at the same time. Advanced Home Inspection, both Mike and John were super nice to work with and the report was prepared super quick! I highly recommend them!

I highly recommend Debbie Martin of Premium House Inspections, Northampton MA to do a buyer home…read moreinspection. We have purchased 6 different homes over the past years, and we totally know the huge importance of a detailed home inspection prior to purchasing a home. This last inspection was especially important to us because it involved a home that is 170 years old with a septic system, a well system, and four chimneys! We have never purchased an antique home before, and we wanted all the details we could get on how the home systems function. At this time of Covid-19 concerns, Debbie allowed me to be present for inspection, which was an absolute must for us to be present due to us never having owned an antique home. Debbie came completely prepared with multiple sets of gloves, a face mask, as well as antibacterial wipes to accommodate cleaning of gloved hands and any touched surfaces. She also required only one person in attendance, with safe distancing at all times. As for the inspection, Wow! It was a staggering experience for sure! We absolutely appreciated the extreme detail of inspection that Debbie provided us. She combed through every detail of the original house and addition , she had great equipment to measure heating in each room, she was extremely knowledgeable about existing antique structures, as well as the 50 year old addition that comprises the house. We had seen the house three times before inspection and we did not notice some very major issues. We also had a building contractor in to look at the house the day before our inspection, and he noted two areas of major concern. I did not share any of that with Debbie, and she immediately saw those same issues, and a few others! She gave excellent perspectives, and recommendations for issues that need immediate attention. She gave us a comprehensive 60 page report with excellent photo documentation for easy reference of how to proceed. Lastly, Debbie was congenial, even tempered, and was patient with all manner of persistent questions. I also appreciated Debbie's humility in areas outside of the scope of her legal obligations as a home inspector! I very much appreciated Debbie's thorough inspection so that we can proceed in the purchase of this home with a reality based knowledge of what it takes to maintain an antique home. We highly recommend Debbie Martin Premium Home Inspections, and we are glad she was recommended to us by a highly reputable realtor.
