Your Local Expert Home Inspection Service

Welcome to Home Inspections by Chris.  Before becoming a home inspector, I owned an interior residential demolition company for over 15 years, Where I was responsible for the interior demolition of homes from top to bottom.  I was also a licensed contractor, where I specialized in interior remodels of homes.  In addition, I have owned over a dozen homes in NYC, Pennsylvania, and Florida, where I have managed and repaired throughout the years. 
This all adds up to the experience you should want in your home inspector.
Why should you hire me? From the foundation to roofing I have done it all. I know how to inspect a house because I have been in the construction business for many years.

A WORD FROM MY CLIENTS

Honest Reviews

Chris was very thorough, and he did a great job explaining everything he was doing. He was also very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions both during the inspection, and after. With this being my first home purchase, she eased a lot of worries and helped me out with everything. The report was very thorough and included pictures, circled concerns in the photos, in depth findings on reports, and summarized all concerns at the end. It also categorized whether something was a major/minor problem, and possible remedies to fix. Very satisfied.

Cynthia Lopez

Chris was so nice and very efficient with his work! He helped point things out along the way and had the report to me by the next morning. I will definitely be working with him again if I need another inspection!

David Burns

Chris was absolutely awesome and thorough…I have already suggested you to people! Thanks again for everything!
