Description of Work: This is the third time I have used this provider for home inspections, two multi-family homes and one condo. I have been extremely satisfied with the service. Dominick examines every part of the structure, roof to basement, electrical, plumbing, etc. He reports on good and bad points, and explains what might be a problem in the future. He supplies a very detailed report with pictures showing any problems. He has always been on time for appointments, usually early, and is always friendly and willing to discuss his inspection process as he proceeds. I have used other inspection services in the past, but Dominick is the best. I highly recommend this provider.

We were referred to Certified Home Inspections through a friend. This home will be the second one we've purchased, and there's no comparison between the first home inspection and this one. Mr. Esposito of Certified Home Inspections was punctual, professional, and courteous. He was very patient and answered all of our questions. His fee was extremely reasonable, much less than we paid for our previous home inspection. His expertise of structure, electrical, plumbing, heating/cooling, etc was beyond what we expected. His home inspection report was very detailed and thorough. We are extremely satisfied and 100% recommend Dominick Esposito and Certified Home Inspections.
Description of Work: A home inspection on a potential new home purchase.

The inspector did a great job. He was very thorough. He actually got there before we did. He took a note and made notations regarding the boiler, the plumbing, the electrical and so forth. He pointed out even the small things like a minor leak in the kitchen sink and he highlighted potential things that could be high-ticket items in terms of expenses. I liked that he gave reasonable estimates of how much something would cost. He prioritized which things need to be addressed immediately. He was very polite and down to earth.

Dominick was referred to me by his father (also on Angie's List) as his father wasn't available on the date I needed.Dominick showed up on time (my wife and I were slightly late) and was very professional from the start. This was for a 2 BR condo I wanted to buy and submitted an offer for, but I wanted someone to be completely honest and objective as this inspection wasn't meant to confirm my purchase, but to find all the flaws and determine whether there were any major structural issues that wouldn't be addressed in a normal walkthru "punchlist" or might make the building unsafe or less valuable in the future. Dominick did a thorough inspection in every room, took photos, made notes, and got us a detailed report at the end (only took 1 day). He identified several major issues and design flaws that my wife and I hadn't noticed previously - we submitted them to our attorney, who confirmed that these issues likely wouldn't be addressed by a walkthru (especially since a purchase contract would've been signed by then). We very much appreciated Dominick's work and thought he was great value for the money and would use him again.
Description of Work: Dominick did a thorough inspection of a new 2 BR condo - this meant going from room to room, testing appliances, looking for design flaws, and looking for any damage or flaws that should be fixed. The apartment was a new development, but Dominick still went room to room, testing switches, faucets, the flooring, door handles, toilets, appliances, etc. and took pictures and notes (and provided my wife and I with running commentary). He also inspected the roof since our apartment was on the highest floor. Afterwards he produced a detailed report which we provided to our attorney afterwards for additional negotiation.

Dominick was referred to us by his father, John Esposito because he wasn't available for a Saturday home inspection Mother's Day weekend. The house is old and in need of a lot of "tlc" so we wanted to ensure that we got a thorough inspection. Dominick was available to come all the way to Staten Island at a fair price and would cover the roof, plumbing, electrical, etc. When he arrived he went straight to work, inspecting the outside of the home. When he was done with the outside he explained everything that he saw, how it should be and gave estimates of what it would cost to repair. He did the same inside the house, basement and the roof. In all he spent about 2 hours calling out everything he saw in this house. An important thing to note is that the seller advised that he lived in the house for over 40 years and the house had always been gas. Dominick identified where the oil tank was buried in the front yard and suggested we request the seller have the tank removed. After more research we learned about the environmental nightmare an underground oil tank could be if not properly abandoned. I'm not sure another inspector would have called that out. Some banks won't give you a loan with an underground oil tank that has not been abandoned properly. The day after the inspection we received a report from Dominick that was approximately 47 pages long with images, details and a summary. I would recommend Dominick again and again.
Description of Work: Dominick performed home inspection services on a home prior to us going into contract. We called him on a Tuesday and he came out on a Saturday.

We are very pleased with the company and would recommend them in the future.
Description of Work: This is the first time we used a home inspector, so I signed on to Angies list to find a reputable one. We were glad we found this company. Dominck arrived to our appointment early and started looking at the outside of the house before we got there. He was very thorough and answered all our questions. The service took about 2.5 hours, not counting the time he got there. He went through the whole house explaining everything he looked at and even suggested how to rememdy things he saw that may be an issue later on.
