I've previously bought a house and condo and used other inspectors. Walsh was a far superior experience. Our inspector was friendly and VERY thorough and the report was comprehensive and very easy to understand. They had a lot of availability for the same week too. Highly recommend-worth every penny for peace of mind. read more

Excellent experience with Cameron inspecting an old house for my partner and I. Paid for an 'antique house' inspection which was a little bit more than the normal inspection but seemed to be incredibly worth it! Cameron went EVERYWHERE in the house, crawlspaces under the house and into every crevice of the attic. The report produced was lengthy and very helpful in evaluating the house. His advice and knowledge was very much appreciated and I feel incredibly confident in his report especially with the MANY pictures provided. If you're looking for an inspection, request Cameron! Our realtors set this appointment up so I can't speak to that but the experience in our house was superb. read more

Claudio was fantastic. He was extremely professional, thorough, and detailed. He took the time to walk us through every piece of the property both internal and external. He addressed all of our questions and made it a point to tell us any issues he saw that would be in the report and whether or not it was something to worry about (there wasn't). We received the inspection report the same evening and there were no surprises. We highly recommend Walsh HI and Claudio is the best!! read more

We had set up an inspection for our first home we are buying. We had arrived at the appointment time and Cameron had already been there getting things set up for the inspection. He explained clearly what we were going to cover during the inspection then lead us on the walkthrough. He clearly went over things he was looking for that looked great, and things to look out for in the future. This was so informative and helpful as first time home owners. My wife and I left the inspection feeling confident in the home and more informed. We said it would be great to have Cameron come out every few years to check in on things as it was that helpful. I will be recommending Cameron and Walsh Inspections to everyone I know who needs a home inspection in the future. read more

We had an excellent experience with Walsh Home Inspections. Our inspector, Cameron, delivered exceptional service--he was courteous, personable, and knowledgeable.  He explained everything clearly and we felt confident we were in good hands throughout the entire process. Highly recommend! read more

They inspected our house. They departed and neglected to reattach the two large furnace panels they removed. As a result of this, the furnace did not work and the residents went without heat for the night until someone else came and noticed their mistake. read more

Walsh Inspection came to inspect our home for our buyer in June, nothing unusual was reported. When we went down into our cellar a few days later we discovered that the insulation in the ceilings had been pulled down in places, and actually some pieces were thrown on the cellar floor. Our realtor discussed this issue with Mr. Walsh asking them to fix the mess they left. Walsh refused and even stated he didn't do the damage. (Yet our realtor had walked walked through the cellar prior to his inspection and all insulation was intact.) He was told that his company would not be used again and would not be recommended to another client, his response was he didn't care. I do not recommend this inspection company. My own inspector was shocked to hear what was done to our home and said he would never be so invasive, as it opens up many other issues that can come back at you. Michelle M. read more

This was the 3rd inspection I have had with Walsh and they have all been exceptional. The Inspector we had on our most recent one this week was on a 200 year old colonial, certainly many issues but the Inspector; Brian was realistic about some of the issues you can find in an old home BUT still pointed them out for me each time. Our Inspector was thorough and detailed he was, personable, competent, helpful and pleasant. He went to great length to explain things, the level of severity of issues and things to focus when we buy the home. This was probably the best experience I have had with a Home Inspection and the report that I received will be a document that I will use to update the various aspects of the home. It was forty pages with a ton of reference pictures and was well worth the money. I have had inspections in the past from "franchise" type companies and they have missed a ton of stuff and taken shortcuts, you won't see that with Walsh, great outfit and refreshing to be able to recommend a small business with such consistency. read more

We worked with both Louie and Mike for our inspection process. We also had our radon checked with Walsh Inspections as well. The whole process was so seamless. The customer service was great when trying to book the inspections, and prompt responses when we had additional questions. The radon testing was very detailed and used the updated electronic inspection versus the cannister. The results were very detailed and allowed us to see the radon levels in the home on an hourly basis versus other companies that only provide one number that is an average over the 48 hours. Our overall average passed standards however we saw fluctuations in our results with their detailed reporting which came over higher than the standard. These results confirmed our decision to install a remediation system, whereas if we had only recieved the average like most companies provide, we wouldn't have know some hourly levels were over the standard. We did have some questions about the reporting and the inspector took the time to speak with us over the phone and answer any questions we had. Both Mike and Louie were part of the home inspection. Both were extremely personable and very knowledgeable. Rather than just doing the inspection they also spent time walking us through the mechanics of what they were looking at, things we should be looking for as first time home owners, and maintenance we should be performing on a yearly basis once we move in. The inspection paperwork was promptly provided to us the same day of the inspection, with very detailed descriptions and photos. I would highly recommend this company for both the home inspection and the radon inspection. read more

I just recently purchased a home and our realtor recommended that we use Walsh Home Inspections. After reading the reviews I made sure we had Mike come for ours and he was wonderful! He walked me though everything as he was going through the house and explaining everything that he found. He was able to answer all of my questions and made it much easier to understand the report when it came (within 24 hours!). I have recommended them to friends, and would absolutely use them again! Thanks, Mike! read more

Just had a home inspected by Walsh Home inspections, inspectors name was Louie. I was very impressed with his knowledge, interest, and effort put into the inspection. He was very thorough going above and beyond my expectations. Im confident knowing that he didnt leave any leaf unturned. Wasnt afraid to pull out his tool box and take things apart or crawl into tight spaces to get the answers. Poked the entire sill plate and found some rot that otherwise couldnt be seen. He took photos of all his concerns even if they were minor and emailed us with his results. Well rounded knowledge in all trades. I would highly recommend this inspector and would plan to use him again in the future if needed. read more

Paul MacDonald was our home inspector, he did a fantastic job! He was on time, personable, very knowledgeable and thorough. I am in the construction industry, but still learned a lot of useful information from him. I will undoubtedly recommend both Paul and Walsh Home Inspections to friends, family, and coworkers. read more

My wife and I are first time homebuyers and didn't know what to expect with a home inspection. After researching a few different home inspectors, I found Walsh Home Inspections to have competitive and fair pricing. The day of the inspection, there were two inspectors who worked diligently and efficiently. They would inspect an area of the house, explain everything they looked for, what they found, and then give instructions for how best to fix any problems. What I found especially useful were all the tips they gave to maintain the home. They even gave us a professionally published guide on home maintenance that will definitely be helpful in the future. Our inspection was at 1:00 and by 8:00 that evening they had emailed us a full, detailed, pictured report of the inspection. Highly recommended. read more

I've never had to go through a home inspection before as this is the first house my husband and I have purchased, so I can't say how Walsh Home Inspections stacks up against other companies, but I can say that we had a great experience working with them and were very happy with the service we received. As first-time home buyers were were obviously a bit nervous and apprehensive about the inspection and weren't sure what to expect. Our inspector, Louie, was wonderful. He explained everything so thoroughly and answered any questions we had. The full report we received a day later was comprehensive and easy to read and really gave my husband and I a sense of relief that we knew everything about the house we were buying. I highly recommend Walsh Home Inspections to anyone in the Rhode Island/Southern Massachusetts area. They also offer easy online booking via their website. read more

Everything seemed to go OK. The inspector was very personable, but he was not thorough at all. After I moved into the house I discovered all sorts of issues that should have been caught by the inspector. I understand they can;t find everything, but he didn't find some very basic things! Things that according the contractors I have had to hire should have been caught. Do not use OMAR from Walsh home inspections! read more

i have a home for sale, walsh home inspections did in fact view my home. although "louie" was professional and did a fine job inspecting the home HE FAILED TO REPORT PROPERTY DAMAGE CAUSED BY LOUIE DRIVING OFF A RETAINING WALL. he at the end of the inspection, witnessed by a tenant of my own, drove off a retaining wall causing damage. his vehicle had to be lifted onto the driveway by a tow truck. after this incident you would think he would feel obligated to report any/all damages caused by this incident. to date i have not been contacted. read more

We just recently moved to Massachusetts from California and are purchasing a home here. We were lucky enough to contact Walsh Home Inspections to conduct our home inspection. The inspector was excellent. He was very thorough and gave us excellent information and recommendations. If you're in need of a home inspection, we highly recommend Walsh. They respond quickly to requests and have a very professional staff. Call them! You won't be disappointed. read more

I had my new condo inspected by Michael Walsh in the beginning of May. I highly recommend his services. He was very thorough and explained things in an easy and informative manner. He was on time, actually early and had already done the outside inspection before I got there. His website is very user friendly and confirmations are sent immediately. I also got the inspection report emailed to me within hours of the inspection. He's the type of guy that I could easily call with any questions or concerns. Also, I had prepaid with a credit card and during the inspection he advised that I did not need a service that I had prepaid for. My c/c was credited for that amount. Good guy! read more

Walsh was great! Did an inspection with Paul M. who was very detailed and thorough, patient with our questions, and took a lot of time explaining things to my husband and I (we are first time home buyers). He did a great job with the inspection, as well as educating us on how to care for and maintain our home. The online booking system was easy, and they even sent me a reminder text the day before. Plus, we had a detailed report complete with photos in our email that same evening. Would definitely recommend! read more

I would highly recommend them, they got into every crevice of the house and gave a very detailed report after. The inspector also gave great recommendations to remedy things. read more
