Description of Work: I found Ed Lampl to be a very professional, knowledgeable and focused inspector. He arrived on the agreed upon time and after introductions, immediately began his inspection. He was very thorough as he proceeded throughout the house and exterior. Provided a very detailed report and encouraged questions if clarification were needed. He offered suggestions on minor problems and supported the importance of engaging professional help to repair/replace items that needed attention. |I would classify his work as excellent.

Description of Work: Home inspection including radon testing. This was the best money I have ever spent. If you want answers to all of your questions ask Ed. We were looking at a very old house that had been neglected for decades and Ed was extremely candid with us about the things that needed to be done. He gave us all the time we needed and answered questions until there were no more questions aND believe when I say I hAve a lot of questions. If you want to have a good idea about what you are getting into before buying call Ed. It's apparent he loves his job and helping people which is hard to find these days. He's the first person we will call if we are ever in the market for another house.

Description of Work: I contacted Ed Lampl through Angie's list. He immediately responded asking me to email him with my info, which I did. He never responded. Then I called and left a voicemail. My realtor also contacted asking him to get in touch with us. He never did. No response at all. Never performed an inspection.

My husband accompanied Ed for this service. Air and tape samples were done without incident and sent to the lab for processing. Ed went through the house with an infrared device to spot water sources, which my husband said was handy in various areas to show whether there was/was not water such as around windows. We received our lab results on the date promised. However, the report was simply lab numbers. There was no follow up on what the figures actually MEANT. My husband followed up by phone and was told the extremely high levels of some forms of mold were "no big deal." However, according to EPA and related reports, these are included in the small sub-set of toxic mold. Ed never followed up on my husband's request for advice regarding remediation. We wound up having a second inspection based on the lab results to determine whether we should or should not remediate. The recommendation was to do so. Then we worked with contracted with another company to do the remediation. Further, we were told by both companies the "tape test" was an absolute waste of our money and unnecessary.
Description of Work: Conducted two air samples (outside/inside) for mold and one tape sample at attic (extra fee). Also walked through house pointing out moisture sources.

I called Ed up based on the glowing reviews here and asked him if he could come out and test some suspect paint in our house for lead. He said he could do it but that honestly we shouldn't bother -- he said "I like revenue and everything, but I don't want to waste your time. Here's what you should do..." and gave simple instructions. He didn't know me, I've never met the guy, but he took time for free to help me out. I will certainly use him when it comes time to get my next home purchase inspected.
Description of Work: Gave advice on lead paint testing and remediation.

+ -1 moreWe are relocating from out of town so needed a Saturday appointment. Ed arrived on site before we did and had already started inspecting the roof. Despite the cold weather, he went over every detail on the outside of the house. He then moved inside and went over everything with a fine toothed comb, paying particular attention to mechanical and safety issues. He found several issues that needed quick attention, patiently described the situation and recommended action. Beyond that, he pointed out details and gave tips on maintenance and upkeep. Ed is a specialist in radon testing, which he did for us and mold testing (also a "Sick Building Syndrome Specialist"). Admirably, he told us that there was no evidence of mold in the house and a mold test was not necessary - it would only be for piece of mind. Had there been the slightest evidence, we would have done the test but Ed's honesty saved us about $300. The inspection took over four hours to complete because of his attention to detail. A good motto for this company would be "the black belt of the inspection industry!"
Description of Work: Detailed home inspection including all mechanical systems and radon testing.
