Introduction

Thumbtack doesn't make sure that each license can be properly verified. Home inspectors in the state of New Jersey need to be licensed. Check to see that your inspector is properly licensed. If they are licensed in the state of New Jersey they are also required to have insurance. My license number is 24GI00091100. Licenses need to be renewed and verified via the state every two years. My current home inspection license is good up until 4/30/2025. My radon measurement license is valid thru June of 2024. A great deal of my works comes from prior customers referring me to their friends and family. I love the opportunity to work with a diverse group of people from all walks of life. During COVID Please also be advised: Gloves and face masks must be worn, along with social distancing guidelines that must be adhered to at all times, while at the property.

Mike did a great job. Would not hesitate to recommend him. Our inspection report was thorough, comprehensive and detailed with excellent quality photos. Turnaround time was excellent. At first glance, Mike did not appear to be competitive with other quotes, but we then realized his quote INCLUDED termite and radon testing, while the others did not. Made his fee very competitive. Super nice guy too.

Mike was very flexible during the whole inspection process. He accommodated all 5 tenants and actually came back to inspect a "hard to get to" tenant. Having worked with inspectors before, I can easily say that Mike went above and beyond to ensure that he captured all defects in his report. He also summarized the defects in the beginning of the report. The quality of the work was beyond compare. Thanks Mike!!!!

Came in, went right to Work. Didn't bother him while he worked so I can't say much for any interaction. Answered questions at the end politely enough. Received report promptly as promised. Thumb tack Quote was close enough to actual price although it went up 50 bucks for a radon test. However, I was informed well in advance. I appreciated texting as I'm way to busy for phone calls.

Mike was on time as promised and the inspection report provided on the apartment that we were purchasing was excellent with all the details and pointers around potential updates/fixes that were required in the unit.

Mike was extremely professional, straight to the point and extremely clear about what to do. As a first time buyer, I was kind of stress, but he helped my husband and I since his very first e-mail. He was very reassuring about the whole process asking precise questions and providing advice.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is based on a combination of interior square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process for working with is new customer is helping them access their needs; do they need to have a property scan for any possible oil tanks, do they need to have a septic system inspected, etc. I recommend that these items be addressed BEFORE the home inspection begins to avoid a possible major obstacle / issue.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Twenty hours of continuing education per year are required to maintain your home inspection license in N.J. This is about equal to one semester at most colleges. I am currently serving as the education director for the Garden State ASHI chapter of home inspectors.
