We are first time home buyers and Vitale came highly recommended to us through our realtor. Early on in the home search, I contacted Vitale and someone answered all my questions about what to expect in an inspection, the different inspection add-ons (radon, insect, sewer, oil tank sweep, chimney, etc) and sent me a sample report. When we finally bought a house, I scheduled an inspection with Vitale with an appointment needed within a week. They usually do inspections at 9 am or 1pm. I received reminders of the inspection prior to the date. On the day of inspection (a Saturday), Jake arrived and inspected the home thoroughly. He was personable, patient, knowledgeable, and extremely easy to communicate with. We asked him a lot of questions too. And Zack who inspected the chimney (Level II chimney inspection add-on) was just as fantastic. After the inspection, we received our reports in the time promised and when we had follow up questions a few times on the report, someone was always available to answer when we called and tried to answer our questions and offered to pass along any questions to the inspectors for further help. We sent our parents a copy of the report and they remarked that it was the most thorough report they've ever seen. Highly recommend! read more

They inspected my house and almost everything they brought up was BS. A few examples : Front water hose bib doesn't work, wrong. Mold in a closet, it was glue, wrong. Shower nooks were sloped to hold water, I put a level on it, wrong, said brand new roof had two layers of shingles, I have pics showing full rip off, wrong. Foundation is bulging, old wood along foundation yes not foundation and they said it was all cracked, wrong. Said could not find switch for bathroom fan, look on wall, wrong, said both bathroom fans may be vented inside of house, look on front porch and you will hear vent come on a feel air, wrong. Then put in report bushes need trimming! Seriously! Who ever this was should be fired as you have no clue how to do your job. Oh there's more but I'm done. read more

Hannah was amazing so friendly, helpful, and she seemed truly excited for me definitely recommend her!!

While selling our home the potential buyer chose Vitale Inspection Service to inspect our home. During the inspection 2 GFI breakers were tripped an not reset. Including the basement GFI controlling the pump for the basement bathroom. This failure caused flooding and damage to the floor. 2 plantation shutters were broken during the inspection. The report falsely stated that 3 rear windows "did not lock". All 3 lock and operate fine. The report twice claimed we had forced hot air heat which is incorrect, we have baseboard hot water. We were told the AC overflow pan was full, yet when we returned we found no water in the pan. These errors and damages materially misrepresented the condition of our home. Needless to say, the buyers backed out. We did call and complained but not sure if they even cared. read more

Thorough inspection done by Tyler. He kindly explained everything and was so helpful.

Vitale came highly recommended by both realtor and lawyer... On time, courteous and knowledgeable about all aspects of home inspection. Tom was very forward in what issues were found, as well as the overall condition of the home, which was great. I recommend them! read more

Corey was amazing. Personable, knowledgeable, and professional to the max. He made sure to explain to me everything he found in terms I could understand and was very patient when I asked questions even if he had to re-explain things to me. If you are looking for a home inspector who knows what they are doing and is also respectful, not treating you like just another customer but instead like a human being, Corey is your guy. I recommend him 10000% without reservation. read more

This is my first ever review. The inspection that Jake from Vitale Inspection did was amazing. As a first time homeowner I had a lot of questions and Jake was able to answer then and as he inspected the house and explained everything with ease. I have never heard anyone say good things about inspectors that they have had. I will recommend them to everyone. Making the appointment was easy and speaking to Jake was even easier. I feel better knowing he took him time on the house and I feel more comfortable moving in now. Thanks Vitale Inspections!!! read more

We had a presale inspection performed on our 300+ year old home and Jarred was not only knowledgeable but very patient and helpful. I feel a lot more confident about any issues that may arise during the sale process. Thanks! read more

Chris was great in my home inspection. Very detailed report and made themselves easily available for followup.

The inspection with Mr.Nick Dogias from Vitale Inspection was totally amazing. Nick was super easy-going and very patience to explain and answer all the questions , especially for a first time homebuyer like me, I learned so many things from Nick. He also provided many useful and practical suggestions.The whole experience with Nick was terrific. Also making the appointment was super easy with Kelly Iannaccone, fast and easy access to get the inspection report same day ! I highly Nick and Vitale to everyone in need of home inspection. read more

Contacted Vitale Inspection for the two houses I am buying simultaneously, and the inspection company was very helpful setting the appointment up, approximately 3 hours apart. Jarred Martinez was the inspector that day, and I have no complaint with him. He was extremely courteous, charismatic, and answered all my questions. I recommend those buyers to use Vitale when they are under time pressure because the company was able to generate the report within the day of inspection. I took one star off because I think relative to other inspection companies, they are a bit pricey. I did the typical 2-family home inspection, radon, sewer scope, oil tank sweep, termite, the total came out to be $1,200 per property ($50 off for bulk discount lol). If you do some leg work to contact another company, I think you can do $1,050 with other inspection company. If you want the convenience, just pay that $150 because the service is top notch for sure. read more

They did an amazing job on my home inspection. Dave was incredibly helpful and very thorough. He explained all the issues to me in easy to understand terms, and really put me at ease. He also got the entire inspection report over to me in just a few hours. Id absolutely recommend for any home inspection! read more

Seems to be a lot of these "great" reviews are right after the home inspection before you uncover all of the issues they DID NOT FIND. Very simple and I feel like a fool that I was not able to see some of the issues in my home, like the HOLES IN MY ROOF or the flex seal spray painted on the plywood of my attic. OR how my inspector did not even go on my roof. THREE opportunities to see that my entire roof had issues and each 3 failed, not even two months later of living in my home and have dry wall damage all on my top floor, and I had to replace my ENTIRE F'IN ROOF. All which could of been discovered by my home inspector for a simple routine inspection. I have also had significant leaks from my washer, tub, kitchen sink, and main water water line, 3 of which were not mentioned or discovered in my inspection. These issues have cost me over $7,000 and when I contacted Vitale to address my concerns, we played phone tag to ultimately not have my calls or texts returned. I expect ATLEAST the cost of my inspection back, since it doesn't even cover a fraction of how much these overlooks have cost me. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY- and my realtor/team will no longer be recommending them. Cannot believe they don't even truly attempt to right their wrong. INSANE. read more

Nick was my inspector and I was pleasantly surprised to find him an hour early for his inspection. After we met, I was instilled with great confidence in his abilities; upon receiving his inspection report, my impression was confirmed as he was very thorough, very detailed in leaving no stone unturned. I would highly recommend Nick and the Vitale team to anyone looking for a home inspector. read more

I have used Vitale on two inspections (first house fell through 3 days before closing). While not meant to reflect negatively on my first interaction or the inspector, for some reason I had a greater sense of satisfaction in time, cost, service(s) and interaction with inspector Jarred Martinez (& trainee in tow). That being said, where they fell short. Maybe it's just my luck but two for two, I requested a camera scope of the waste line and both time the equipment was unable to make a "complete" scope of the pipe. Now sure it could be the pipes but just in case you have the same experience..... On top of that, even though I let the office manager know, he completely glossed over that part and replied "Glad everything went well"....yeah but....ah. Lastly and only a minor disappointment was the $25 discount for return customer. While $25 saved is a good thing, it just seemed a bit shy when you are still spending $750x2. So over all great service, you can piecemeal the work at a cheaper price but you can get most of what you need under one roof with Vital. read more

Anyone looking for a home inspection, these company is fantastic. I have used many services over the years with much disappointment and expected the same. Much to my surprise, Nick went above and beyond and left no stone unturned. They were friendly to deal with in the office. They exceeded my expectations. read more

The inspector missed many defects while at the same time claiming problems existed when in fact they didn't. He turned many mundane and unnecessary things into a lesson (3 minutes on how to buy furnace filters. Really!! He knew I've been a homeowner for over thirty years.) But when I asked him a simple question regarding the AC unit he threw up his hands and claimed he wasn't qualified to provide that answer. I've reached out to the owner to discuss some things. He has not responded. read more

Had Jared as our inspector he was great. Took the time to explain things and went through items step by step with us. We had an afternoon inspection and the full report was done by the end of the night. He was extremely personable and could answer every question we had. Jared also was training Hannah she was great - she too reassured us with a few issues we had. She is learning from one of the best. Couldn't thank them both enough! read more

Chris from Vitale Inspection was great! As first time homebuyers, he explained the process and each area of the home. His attention to detail and safety was outstanding. The report was comprehensive, thorough and detailed. This company is extremely professional when scheduling inspections and the inspector was professional as well. This process was seamless for us a first time homebuyers. I highly recommend this inspection service. I would recommend them to family and friends and use them in the future for any need. Outstanding! read more

Helpful, intelligent, and honest. This is the first time we've bought a house, so we selected every available option. Two different specialists independently pointed out that one of the items in his area was probably unnecessary, so we ended up paying less than the estimate, and still got an excellent and thorough report. read more

My realtor gave me the names of a few home inspectors, and though the other companies may have been great, I am so glad that I went with Vitale. I was really impressed with this inspection service for a few reasons: 1. They perform inspections on Saturdays (as well as during the week), so I did not have to miss work. Excellent! 2. The price was very reasonable: $475. 3. Our inspector, Dave, was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. He was extremely thorough and answered all of our questions. 4. Even though the inspection was done on a Saturday, we had an email Sunday morning that included the termite inspection report, and the rest of the report had arrived by early Monday. I was impressed by the quick turnaround. Buying a home is a huge commitment, and after this inspection, I feel confident about my purchase. Having an inspector who inspires trust makes all the difference. I will certainly be referring my friends and family to Vitale Inspection Services in the future. read more

It is impossible to say enough good things about Vitale Inspection Services! It's an AMAZING company, and we are so glad we found them. Here are a few of the reasons why: 1) Everyone we dealt with was unbelievably friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We used Vitale for two different home inspections, plus one re-inspection, and they always made us feel like VIP's. 2) The inspector we worked with, Carlo, was not just punctual, but consistently early. Each time we got to a property, he was already there and hard at work. 3) The inspection itself was extremely thorough. We had a lot of confidence that Carlo would find anything that was going to give us problems. He explained everything he was doing in a way that was easy to understand, documented all of it, and patiently answered all of our questions. 4) We got a very detailed (but easy-to-read) inspection report very soon after each visit. Once or twice, we got the inspection report on the same day of the inspection. 5) The prices at Vitale inspections were very reasonable, and each inspection was worth every penny. Thank you, Vitale Inspections!!! You made the whole process of buying a house much less scary and uncertain. We recommend you to everyone as enthusiastically as we can. read more

We used Vitale Home Inspection when purchasing our home. They did the inspection and they obviously missed a big problem with our furnace which turned out to be costly for us. I reached out to them for them to come back and see for themselves the problem they missed. We made several appointment times but each time they canceled. I also sent a certified letter which they received and this was ignored. They were obviously not willing to acknowledge the mistake and try to reconcile or reimburse us for the repairs that had to be done. When we had the repairs done the company we used stated that the problem should not have been missed during the home inspection as it was an obvious issue. I would never recommend anyone to this company unless you want to be ripped off. read more

i cannot recommend these guys enough. they absolutely saved us from a nightmare. the house we were in love with happened to be a money pit. we kept noticing issues here and there and the owners were only too willing to "fix" them. when it came down to it, the follow up inspection turned out to be a disaster. the owner had destroyed the only well on the property in an effort to cover up, what i imagine must be a major bacteria issue in the water. vitale no doubt saved us about half a million dollars and several years of agony. we couldn't be more pleased. sad to find out that our dream home was just a dream. happy to find that out before spending the cash. fast forward to today... we used vitale for another home we're looking to buy. very pleasant. super thorough. incredibly knowledgeable. i can't offer enough praise. if you're selling your home, have carlo from vitale come out and inspect. if you're buying a home, have carlo from vitale come out and inspect. if you've lived in a home for an extended period of time, and you want to make sure that you haven't missed any important maintenance- have carlo from vitale com out to inspect. you may be sorry you didn't- you definitely won't be sorry you did! read more

My boyfriend and I recently had a house we are looking to purchase inspected by Vitale Inspection. Jarred M did a fantastic job! Answered all of our questions thoroughly and gave us great advice for our future home. Received our detailed report the same day of the inspection. Highly recommend! read more

Carlo did an excellent job inspecting our house. He was very thorough, friendly and detailed. We spent about two and a half hours in the house and he inspected EVERYTHING. I also loved the packet he presented at the end which (among other things) listed reputable contractors, plumbers, etc. in the area. I would absolutely recommend Vitale Inspection to anyone! read more

Chris was an excellent inspector. Puntual, well organized and professional. The inspection report was completed quickly and the web based report is easy to use and is set up to go to the attorney, realtor and I imagine anyone else that needs to see it. The price for the inspection was fair. I would use them again without thinking twice. read more

Carlo, the owner, handled our home inspection. He was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable; he took the time to thoroughly inspect the home, and provided insight along the way. My wife and I have a lot more confidence in our decision to purchase our first home, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Carlo's company to anyone else in our shoes! read more

My wife and I contracted Vitale Inspection Services to conduct a home inspection for a new home we are buying in Robbinsville, NJ. The inspection was conducted by Carlo Vitale, who is the owner and president. Carlo showed up early, was on the site and already taking photos and noting things down when we arrived. He was completely prepared, and even had a notepad, pen and tape measure for us to use. Carlo led us through the entire home inspection very methodically, pointing out all kinds of things from cosmetic stuff to maintenance tips as well as more significant concerns, all the while taking pictures and noting things for his report. He was polite, professional, personable and incredibly organized and detailed. We even climbed into the attic where he explained how the attic fan works. The report arrived the next morning, was very organized and detailed with photos, etc. I can honestly say my wife and I feel so much more prepared to own and maintain this home as a result of this inspection, and I know every nook and cranny of this house now, thanks to Carlo. I would recommend him and his company without reservation to anyone who needs inspection services in Central NJ - he's definitely the best. read more

Fantastic!!!!! I cannot say enough good things about Vitale Inspection I was referred to them by my realtor Terry Loda and we had Carlo. They were able to schedule us quickly and he was amazing, he inspected the house thoroughly which was a foreclosed townhouse and from my few times in the house everything looked great except for cosmetic updates and some minor changes.. BOY was I wrong.. Carlo found termites in the garage, a crack in a PVC pipe in the attack to one of the bathrooms, the AC and Heat unit was about on its last year of life, and worst of all the crawl space was flooded and the insulation was full of moisture and possible serious MOLD problems EEEK.. I cannot even believe if it had not been for their thorough inspection how much of a money pit I could have been on the hook for.. Thank God for them.. I highly recommend their services. I will definitely use them for my inspection for the next house I choose. read more
