My husband and I have recently bought our first home together. The process can be incredibly…read morestressful and overwhelming. However Nigel and his team including Mark (Home inspector), Matt (Sewer line inspector), Adam (Oil tank sweep) and Bradley (Chimney, roof, water and heating systems) were the highlight of the whole process. The team were very knowledgeable, in-depth, friendly, great value and super clear in their recommendations and next steps. I never write reviews but they were so wonderful and professional, I would recommend them to anyone buying a house.

Must agree with the other 2 star review. We've been in the house 3 years now and quite a bit was…read moremissed during the inspection. Obvious signs of issues that would be a red flag to a trained eye have cost us a lot of money. We've since learned that it does not take much to become a home inspector and that the wiser approach would be to get a cheap home inspection, then pay your trusted plumber/electrician/HVAC to spend an hour looking for any problems.

Guys who work/run this company are great. You want 4 things from a home inspector and these guys…read morehave them all, in flying colors: 1) Honesty 2) Knowledge 3) Competence 4) Fair Pricing I just had the worst almost home purchase ever. Almost every person involved was shady and underhanded, which is why Iucked out by having Chuck and Todd on my side. Todd did a great and thorough job inspecting the home. Because of the hoarder's clutter in the home, a dishonest seller and resentful tenants that would barely let us in, he wasn't able to inspect some aspects of the home, and Chuck volunteered to come back before closing if there was access and inspect the areas/things that were blocked on the original inspection (at no-charge). These are the most straightforward, on the level guys. Reasonable and on your side. The deal ended up going south, and the seller's agent/new buyers tried to pressure Chuck into giving them the inspection report and he immediately called to tell me, I would've never known, but he is so honest and legit--- he's that guy. This entire experience has been extraordinarily disheartening and if it wasn't for the great guys at above grade I would have 1) been doubly screwed over, and 2) lost all faith in humanity. Also, the phone support they provided me and going through the inspection report and talking through the process was beyond expectations. They are seriously great, we are still looking and without a doubt I'm going to be hiring them to inspect the next place.

Todd was excellent and went above and beyond. He provided a clear explanation of where everything was and what everything did. We would not have felt comfortable closing on our house if we did not have Above Grade Home Inspections on our side. Chuck made scheduling very easy and was very accommodating when planning our inspection. Our report turnaround time was speedy compared to other companies, which allowed us to have inspection report actions items fixed faster. I will be recommending Above Grade Home Inspections to all my friends and family.

I've had 5 home inspected in my life; Clever Inspections in by far the most thorough I've ever had…read more Our inspector was Andrew, he showed up on time and spent about two hours inspecting our two BR two Bath home from top to bottom,inside an out - roof to crawls space. 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. A few of the many photos provided are attached.

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. He also helped accommodate requests for what to look for too. 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.

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.

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.
