"We hired Arthur for the inspection on a two-family brick home in Queens, and I am glad we did. He showed up on time, walked the whole property methodically, and did not rush through anything. The report was detailed, professionally written with photos and clear explanations of what each issue actually meant, along with helpful guidance. He was upfront that a couple of things (moisture around one foundation wall, some wear on the boiler) warranted a specialist opinion, rather than trying to guess or downplay it. He also took the time to actually walk us through the findings afterward instead of just emailing the report and disappearing. As first-time buyers, that mattered a lot. He explained things in plain language and never made us feel rushed or like we could not ask further questions. Highly recommend if you want someone who is genuinely thorough and communicates clearly, not just someone checking boxes."

"Working with John Goldberg took the stress out of getting our home inspected. He had valuable input for us that we followed and helped sell our house. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a reputable home inspector."

"My apartment is on the top floor of the building. The fire department broke through the roof, and they filled my apartment with water to put out the fire. They also broke a few walls. The insurance company sent in a fire restoration company to remove my damaged property and the damaged wall, ceiling, and floor materials. However, they were also supposed to clean the remaining walls, floors, and ceilings throughout the apartment that were not damaged/removed.
The building is old, so there is lead paint on most of the walls. As it turns out, the roof membrane contains asbestos, and some of the walls are constructed of cement. The laboratory test results of the samples collected in my apartment indicated that my apartment was contaminated with asbestos from the roof, lead dust from the paint, silica from the cement walls, and mold from water damaged sheetrock surfaces that were not removed. Residual carbon soot was also found on the windowsills in my bedroom.
The Angstrom Mold Inspection Report was very well written, and it included a detailed scope of work for the necessary additional removal and cleaning work that was needed in my apartment. The lab reports documented the presence of contaminants, which substantiated the need for additional work. I gave the Inspection report to my insurance company, and they had the restoration company return to my apartment to perform the necessary additional removal and cleaning work. Then I had the Angstrom Mold Inspection Company return to perform a follow-up inspection and testing, and the lab results came back negative. Thank God!
This company is great, and I fully trust their expertise. Well worth the money."

"The great: Inspected the roof and got the report in right away. Nice, personable and professional. The Strange: After the inspection and after they informed me of the fixes that needed to be done, they did not respond when I asked for an estimate. Maybe because they were small fixes and not worth the time? I do not know."

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.
