Customers say: Super punctual

"J May Home Inspections is probably the best in New England. All aspects of the inspection were done in a timely, efficient, knowledgeable, professional manner. Mike first provided a summary of the relevant issues and then quickly followed up with a comprehensive report. The price was fair and the inspection done to the highest standards. He patiently and clearly answered all questions during the walkthrough of the home and property. I would recommend J May Home Inspection and Milke to anyway needing a home inspection in this area."

"Estimate was quick and simple. Didn't try and sell me too much such as doing the whole roof at a discount (which others did), and advised against extra work I asked about due to it making worse past issues with ice dams. Took care of everything else themselves. Followed up with me; but didn't try and chase me down for sale either which was nice. Price was good and very competitive, considering many places only do a full roof (other half was done with a new addition 5 years before). Scheduled a few weeks in advance and came on days and times scheduled. Payment was simple and easy, and communications with support staff went well. Only reason for not giving them an A is they missed a small part of a bay window they said they would do to match up with other shingles and seemed to leave in a rush as they left a couple of tools and extension cords there. Also did a good job cleaning up; but wasn't spotless either and found a bunch of leftover nails on roof, driveway, and in bushes (less so old shingles). Just left extra shingles in pile by driveway door and didn't hear anything else from them on job. But after inspection and winter job seems well done and these are minor issues. Not enough to call about, just not A level. Would recommend them.

"I recently had insulation installed with Avid Energy, and the entire experience was outstanding from start to finish. The best part was that the insulation was installed at zero cost, which made a huge difference for our home and budget. The installation crew was professional and extremely efficient. They arrived on time, explained the whole process clearly, and made sure everything was completed neatly and thoroughly. The crew worked hard, cleaned up after themselves, and treated our home with care and respect. Since the installation, we’ve already noticed the house feels more comfortable and energy efficient. It’s great knowing we’ll also save money on heating and cooling costs moving forward. I highly recommend the Mass Save insulation program to anyone looking to improve their home’s comfort and efficiency."

"This was a replacement of a 25 year old roof on a 100 year old home on Lake Winnipesaukee, Wolfeboro, New Hampshire.  There were many challenges with this project which included re-roofing many intersects brought about by the architecture of the building.  Complicating the process were protruding dormers, skylights and many chimney and wood stove flue and penetrations through the roof structure.
This contractor provided a thorough work specification and performed the services as described.  As this building is occupied by three unit owners, it was important to get and review three competitive bids.  After discussing the bid details, this contractor was unanimously chosen for the job.
The job was scheduled for the first full week of November and a crew of ten started promptly as scheduled on Monday November 4.  It was estimated to be a two day job (which I thought was very unlikely).  By the end of the first day, all of the old roof had been removed and most of the new roof installed.  The second day was used to complete the detail trim and was subject to a thorough review and quality check by the owner.  The entire crew then walked the property to ensure all debris and nails were removed.
I have used this contractor previously on another property I own.  I then provided this contractor as a reference to a friend of mine, who was also very happy with all aspects of the job.  I would not hesitate to use or refer Adam Vaillancourt, LLC in the future.  I thought I was picky about making sure jobs get done on schedule, on time and on budget.  Adam Vaillancourt, LLC is one of the best contractors I have ever dealt with!

"After an unusual situation arose at my home, I was concerned about the possibility of structural damage caused by drilling and new construction at an adjacent lot. After receiving a recommendation for Veitas Engineers from a trusted source, I called and scheduled an appointment. I am so thankful that I did. I continue to be impressed with the amount of time that the two engineers spent at my house, closely inspecting the exterior and interior. Within days, I received a 16-page detailed report which included drawings, photographs, recommendations, and action items. I was so pleased when I saw that the action items were categorized as structural and non-structural, that is, that the engineers included items beyond my actual structural concerns. I used the report when working with a contractor to follow up on the recommendations and action items. The contractor was impressed with the quality, clarity, and scope of the report. I am so happy that I chose Veitas Engineers!"

FAQs for home inspection projects in Ashby, MA

Most mobile home inspections require two to three hours to complete properly. The timeline varies based on your home's size, age, and overall condition. Inspectors need sufficient time to examine all major systems, document their findings, and compile their observations. 

If the inspector discovers concerning issues that warrant deeper investigation, the process may take longer. For the most thorough assessment, try to schedule your inspection during daylight hours when visibility is optimal.

Pay close attention to water damage indicators like ceiling stains, warped flooring, or musty odors. Structural concerns, including uneven floors, sagging rooflines, or doors that won't close properly, suggest potential foundation issues. Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards. 

Impromptu modifications or repairs performed without proper permits often signal deeper problems. Windows that don't seal properly may indicate structural shifting or water infiltration.

Yes, professional inspectors evaluate the foundation components and anchoring mechanisms during a thorough assessment. They examine support piers, blocks, and tie-downs for proper installation and condition. The inspection includes checking for appropriate ground clearance and adequate ventilation beneath the home. 

Proper anchoring is essential for stability during adverse weather conditions. Foundation issues can affect everything from door alignment to plumbing function, making this a critical part of any comprehensive inspection.

Industry professionals recommend scheduling maintenance inspections every two to three years for manufactured homes. Homes in regions with extreme weather conditions may benefit from more frequent evaluations. Consider arranging an inspection after significant storms or if you notice any unusual changes in your home's condition. 

Regular assessments help identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Maintaining documentation of these inspections also provides valuable records for insurance purposes or future sale considerations.

Search for inspectors with certifications from recognized professional organizations in your state. Specialized training or experience with manufactured housing is particularly valuable for these unique structures. Ask potential inspectors about their familiarity with HUD standards for manufactured homes. Professional membership in industry associations often indicates commitment to ongoing education and ethical standards. Request sample reports from prospective inspectors to evaluate their thoroughness and clarity of communication.

Many insurance providers consider inspection results when determining policy rates and coverage terms. A positive report demonstrating well-maintained systems and the absence of hazards may qualify you for better rates. Addressing issues identified during inspection demonstrates proactive maintenance that insurers often reward. Some companies offer specific discounts for homes that meet certain safety and structural standards. 

Contact your insurance provider before scheduling an inspection to understand exactly what documentation they require for potential premium reductions.
