Dennis and I have been in our new home for almost 1 year and wanted to get a professional home inspection done before our 1 year warranty was up so we could have the builder take care of anything that might be a problem and end up costing us money. We had A.D.P Inspections, Inc come and do the inspection. Rodney Winstead was very professional and thorough. He found things that we would have never saw that would have potentially costed us money in the not so far future. When you buy a brand new home you always assume that everything is perfect. Well, it may not always be that way. Thanks to Rodney the items he found were brought to the builders attention and they are in the process of making the improvements before our 1 year warranty is up. Thank you Rodney, you were able to save us some unforeseen headaches. I would recommend A.D.P Inspections, Inc for any home inspections jobs.
Description of Work: We had a home inspection done from A.D.P Inspections, Inc on a newly build home before our 1 year warranty was to expire.

He is really reliable, he's very good and he's prices are good, he's not too expensive. We use him all the time. He does home inspection, mold inspection, radon and other things. He gave us a report on the quality of the air and to tell us if there was any hazard in the house. I would highly recommend him. He's very prompt and he's very professional. He accommodates me with my time and schedule. He's very flexible.
Description of Work: He did a mold inspection, radon and air quality inspection in a unit in Colombia.

I contacted A,D.P. and they where able to schedule the inspection within a couple of days at a time that worked well with my busy work load . Rodney went through the property with a fine tooth comb and provided a report that was easy to understand. I highly recommend Rodney from A.D.P. and would use their service again.

I've been meaning to write a review about this home inspection service for some time so that others do not use it. My experience overall was abysmal. Home inspector was on time and spent the usual amount of time inspecting the home I ended up buying. His report, which found only minor issues with our house was part of the reason we purchased it. After over $8000 later in under a year I would say the inspection was a waste of money. The inspector failed to notice a leak in the roof and rotting wood in the roof, which a roofer later reported was obvious to the trained eye. The inspector also did not state, report, or even casually mention that our basement was filled with friable asbestos. It's true that the contract stated this inspection did not include hazardous materials, but after speaking with other inspectors it is my understanding that standard practice is to say to the buyer "this might be asbestos, you should get it checked out." Our inspector did not do that. Essentially, there was no purpose to our hiring this company, and in fact it provided us a false sense of security before buying the home. We likely would not have made this enormous purchase if the inspector were honest. There are many choices out there, do yourself a favor and do not pick this one.
Description of Work: Standard home inspection as part of the home buying process.

Response from A.D.P. Inspections Inc.
Home Inspections are intended to be a review of plumbing, electrical and mechanical systems to ensure they are working properly at the time of the inspection, and to inspect for structural and safety conditions of the home within the scope of the inspection. Safety and operational concerns were noted on the report including concerns with electrical outlets and hazardous chimney conditions. In addition, notations were indicated on the report that the roof showed signs of warping, and that there were areas where fascia board was missing and deteriorated. Photographs of these areas were provided as well. Our contract explicitly states that Asbestos is outside the scope of the inspection. Maryland has specific requirements relating to Asbestos licensing for inspecting, testing, and removal that we do not hold, which is why it is excluded from our contract. Our report did indicate that due to the age of the equipment, we recommended it be further evaluated by a licensed HVAC contractor specializing in oil fired systems. We are not aware whether or not this recommendation was taken. We were contacted in September of 2011, one month after the inspection regarding the question of Asbestos, to which we responded in a timely manner indicating that Asbestos was not covered in our scope of work per the contract, and noted again that due to the age of the equipment we had referred him to a licensed HVAC contractor to further evaluate the boiler. No further inquiries were received. This response is being made in February 2013 because this review was not previously associated with our Business Listing so notification of this review was not received.
