They were at the house before i got there all ready to go. They explained every step of the process thoroughly and made sure I understood if there were any issues what i would be seeing in the report. They made suggestions where they could of things they would fix or improve if it were their home. I loved that I was purchasing an old home and Gene has a lot of expertise in this area. He was so excited to do the inspection and talk about improvements it was like he was a part of the family he was just as excited about our home as we were. My 6 year old daughter tagged along on the inspection and they were so patient with her. They chatted with her about what color she would paint her room and all the renovations that the little boss had planned lol. Upon leaving they made sure to let us know to contact them if we have any questions or need recommendations for anything. We received the inspection report bright and early the next morning and it was very beautifully packaged with photos and underlining, arrows and simple explanations. Everything was so easy to locate and understand. The price was slightly more than what i paid for another inspection on a similar home a few months prior but it was well worth it as they were way more thorough and i feel that i got more out of the experience. Did i mention that they squeezed me in the next day after i initially called and was sure they were going to tell me no way. I would definitely recommend to anyone.

1-14-2025 -- Got a home inspection from Sean / Blue Line regarding potential for mold. The plan was…read morefor him to come down and take samples, get them tested, then come back to us with the report. Blue Line was a bit more expensive than other companies we'd called, but from what I'd previously learned about mold, Sean seemed the most knowledgeable. Upon looking our situation over, he found no mold to be tested but did do a good inspection of the area and found no moisture, and no rotted wood. Turns out the black discolorations in our attic ceiling exposed fiberglass was from a mice intrusion. With no testing to be done, Sean only charged us a smaller fraction of the original quote.

I would not hesitate to recommend Tim to anybody purchasing a home. He provides an analysis of his finds complete with photos shortly after the inspection.

Hi Folks, I am writing this review to apprise you of the…read more"Blessing" that Larry Smyj from Aurora Home Inspections was to me and my little family. I am a single mom and I am in the process of purchasing my very first home for my and my family. I asked several folks at Mass if they could recommend a highly "competent" and extremely honest home inspector that would guide me and direct me since I am totally clueless. Several of the men from Mass stated that Larry Smyj from Aurora Home Inspection was my "go to guy" for a highly detailed and professional inspection report. This is the 3rd time that I have utilized Larry Smyj and his professional services. Back in the Fall of 2017 I put a bid of $160K on a wonderful two story home in a historic town here in Jersey. The home was 185 years old. It is on the National Registrar of Historic Homes. No wonder why it was so low the home was falling apart at the beams. The home was originally constructed using the lumber from the local area. However, the lumber was never treated. The lumber, from basement to attic, was riddled with Powderpost Beetles. Powderpost Beetles are a group of seventy species of wood boring beetles classified in the insect subfamily Lyctinae. Wikipedia Scientific name: Lyctinae Higher classification: Bostrichidae Rank: Subfamily (Did you know: Powderpost beetles are small, brown insects usually less than 1/4-inch in length that attack seasoned hard-woods. psu.edu) The few dollars that it cost for a termite inspection could NOT possibly compare to the $160K PLUS that is would have cost me to purchase and then replace the beams in the basement, walls, and attic. Larry went to touch the beam and it crumbled and turned to sand right in his hands. Needless to the OUTSTANDING and DETAILED Inspection Report brought me freedom. I graciously backed out of the contract for said home. No questions asked! The second time I used Larry Smyj from Aurora Home Inspections was in January 2018. This home was much newer and built around 1959 / 1960. The sellers were asking $225K. This home is in the same town as the first town. It had been neglected by its owners who had filed for bankruptcy. This home was in dire need of extensive repairs. It had all the original windows and doors, a second layer of shingles, boiler - furnace, reeked of heavy smoke from both owners. The hot water heater and most of the appliances were all well past their useful life. The finished basement had been built without permits and inspections. The owners made a second and private apartment for the themselves and moved their adult son upstairs. The illegally put in an electrical box and wired the home without proper supervision. The threw a gas stove over in the corner with no ventilation, the covered the basement jacks utilizing fake columns.They called the columns "decor". Guess what? Termites were found all on the outside of the home. But they could not fool a trained inspector like the one and ONLY Larry Smyj of Aurora Home Inspection.Yep! I backed out of this home too. Yep! I received my $5K deposit back as well. I just worked with Larry Smyj again on Friday June 29, 2018 for a 3rd time. Three times a charm! Right? Right! This last (hopefully) inspection was oh so worth it! I found a good home! This home on the outskirts of the other homes. Since we love the area we wanted to stay close to our Catholic Church and school activities. Once again because of Larry's sharp eye and expertise he deemed the furnace shot and in dire need of a replacement since it was purchased in 1980, the electrical box is loaded with corrosion, the roof leaked into the attic, and a list of other items that require immediate attention. My attorney just submitted a Letter of Repair Request and a copy of Larry's 48 page detailed and professional Inspection Report to the sellers attorney today. Guess what?? No termites! This house is a keeper! Thank you Larry Smyj from Aurora Home inspection for you professionalism and expertise! Your patience is a Blessing too because you have to tolerate folks like me! God Bless!
