Why Choose Us

Bruce Platine, Home Inspector:  I have been in the home inspection business since 1978.  My experience
and knowledge has given my company a great reputation in the Massachusetts area.  I provide on the spot
reports so you will know exactly what issues have been uncovered during your home inspection and you
can make quick, informed decisions.

Home Inspections

We have close to 30 years of experience performing complete home inspections for potential and current
property owners. Our home inspections are always done in accordance with
MA Standards of Practice.

    Property Buyers:  A thorough home inspection is a must to make sound decisions.  Minor fixes will
    help you with a priority list after closing.

    Current Homeowners:  A home inspection will help you to prioritize your "to do" list.  We are third-
    parties who are not interested in selling you anything, so there is no pressure from us.  We help you
    make good decisions regarding the maintenance of your home.

    Property Sellers:  Obtain a home inspection to see if there are any issues that are likely to come up
    during the selling process.  Make informed decisions as to items that you should repair prior to
    putting you house on the market.  Be aware of items you may have to negotiate with the buyer if
    you don't want to make the repairs prior to getting your house on the market.

Termite Inspections

A termite inspection may be performed at the same time as the home inspection or you may hire me
independently specifically to check for termite infestation in your home.  Although I look for damage of any
type during the basic home inspection, a complete inspection for termites and termite damage are
specifically not part of the basic home inspection.

Radon Testing

Radon air testing kits are available.  I will place air vials at the inspection site for radon testing.  These kits
must stay in place for 48 hours and then sent to the lab for testing.  Once the testing kit has been in place
for 48 hours, normally you or the broker will mail or deliver the vials to the lab for testing.  For an additional
fee, I can pick up the testing vials and bring them to the lab.

Water Quality/Quantity Testing

There are many water quality testing plans from the most basic to the elaborate. I carry price lists and
water tests with me. Ask me for more information about which test is good for your situation.
