Our most common areas are around Norristown, Pottstown, Collegeville, Exton, Reading, Malvern, & Phoenixville. He also gives back to the industry by sharing his knowledge and training other home inspectors in the field.
My new husband and I were on the hunt for our first house and didn’t have a huge budget. The first home we put an offer on was a short sale (on its way to foreclosure, but not quite there yet). The bank insisted we do the home inspection within ten days, which was before they would ever possibly be able to get through the process to respond to our offer – which should have been a HUGE red flag, in hindsight. After talking it over with our realtor, I called several inspections companies for quotes
My wife purchased a home in Abington PA and the home inspection was detailed and spot on. It was a Homepath Mortgage (Fannie Mae) and no repairs were to be made by the seller but we were prepared for the necessary repairs once we settled. We were satisfied with the inspection!
Couple weeks into our house, and we are discovering things that do not work or barely work for us. This comes as a completely rude surprise after we had a thorough and complete inspection done using ARTI services. Even simple things such as the dryer are completely dysfunctional and turning it on for the first time created a whirring sound so loud as if the roof was coming down. Similar experience with the heating system, it makes crackling and popping sounds, when the heating system kicks in and closes out. Water was bypassed from going through the water softener and the cable was not even plugged in
We used ARTI for our inspection at the recommendation of our realtor and could not have been more pleased. Not only is David throughout, he is smart and beyond personable. He explained everything to us in a way we could understand and took the time to make sure he documented everything accurately for our home inspection report. The report itself was sent back so quickly. David also was able to recommend different inspections we should have done, for mold or other concerns, as well as great contractors for the work we needed. Excellent service. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
David and Tina were responsive and professional at every step of the way and worked with our contract timelines to make sure we fit in all necessary inspections in time. but also identified several safety concerns that we were able to address before moving in. Highly recommend!
Not only did he walk me through his inspection, but walked me through potential remediation of the various issues that came up. He also caught several things on a relatively new house that were subtle but important – including square footage for combustion for my furnace; undue stress put on piping (and how to fix the problem); and a wiring issue. David has over 19 years of experience in inspection, has a masters degree in engineering from Penn, and really knows his stuff. Would highly recommend.
