Ed came by to inspect a property that a myself and 8 others (9 total) rented for a week. Now I am…read morenot a buyer or property owner in any capacity,so I will not be speaking on his capabilities as a home inspector (Other reviews do that, and you can take a look at them for more info on that.) What I will be speaking on is Ed's lack of safety precautions while investigating a property during a global pandemic, with, may I remind you, several thousand active cases in the state of New Jersey alone. Ed was prompt and on time and pleasant enough. We were informed by the property owners that the individual doing the inspection would, in fact, be wearing gloves and a mask, but Ed neglected to wear either a mask or gloves while performing his inspection. When provided a new mask by one of the current tenants of the property, he wasted little time in expressing his distaste for the masks, and was very vocal about the facts that he did not wear a mask on a day-to-day basis, and when he inspected the property of an older couple (in their late 80s) and he was asked to wear a mask, he did, but only after expressing his discontent with wearing one. After being provided with a new mask, he put in on briefly, and removed it only a few minutes later. He continued to inspect the property without any PPE, and without stopping to sanitize or otherwise clean his hands and arms at any point during the inspection. Of the 9 individuals staying on this property, nearly half are either immuno-copromised, or have a pre-existing respiratory issue, if not both. While Ed spouted off about his beliefs regarding COVID, 3 of our tenants were left to shut themselves in one of the bedrooms in order to avoid possible exposure through him. After he left the main space, we were left to disinfect every surface in the rental. As a side note, Ed also stopped the washing machine mid-cycle, and didn't say anything about it, luckily one of us noticed it fairly quickly, but we were left to fully restart the cycle, causing us to have to abandon a portion of our afternoon plans as the restart set us back almost a full hour. Each of the tenants who was present was, in fact, wearing a mask, out of courtesy to the individual who had to enter a space filled with other people. In short order, Ed's lack of professionalism in regards to ignoring federal, state, and local recommendations in order to guard against COVID, is horribly apparent, and honestly baffling. As an individual, whose career relies on entering the living spaces of others, temporary or otherwise, one might think that Ed would have the basic sense, if not simple courtesy, to follow a simple, and unobtrusive set of protocols in order to ensure both his own safety, as well as the safety of the individuals living in the spaces he is inspecting. We will be contacting our rental company to inform them of Ed's possible breach of agreement.

True to his word he showed up around 4pm and started by inspecting my central air unit. When he didn't find a problem with anything there, he walked my entire home, went into the attic and checked out the crawlspace- when he couldn't ID the exact problem in my home he ran a gas analyzer just to make sure no CO or other toxic gases existed. I will hire Ron again in a heartbeat - he cares & goes the extra mile to make sure you're home is safe. Thank you!

We knew the backyard needed a major overhaul. After seeing so many pictures of Rainmaker's work on Facebook, we thought we would give them a call and we are so happy we did! First, we were greeted by friendly staff at the office and quickly scheduled our appointment. Soon after, Brian was out to survey our yard and give us suggestions on what he thought would look nice. After a few exchanges of ideas, we found a perfect design for our backyard. Fast forward to last week the John and the Rainmaker crew started sculpting our backyard. By the end of the first day our ground was level and graded to perfection. Within a short period of time the backyard really came together. We had irrigation put in, established an area for a fire pit, planted privacy shrubs, sod laid and stones surrounding our shed and pool equipment. From start to finish the Rainmaker team made our backyard paradise a reality. They really took pride in their work and listened to any concerns we had. The entire Rainmaker team was courteous, accommodating, and diligent in their craft. We could not be happier with the entire process and results! We highly recommend Rainmaker for your landscaping needs!
