Customers say: Super punctual

"Mike Atwell of J May Home Inspection recently inspected my new condo. He was extremely helpful from our first phone conversation and throughout the inspection. He was very punctual and spent three hours looking closely at every feature of my home. He did not rush, answered my questions and patiently explained how many of the systems and features work. He sent me a detailed, preliminary report within 24 hours, and quickly followed up with a final report by US mail. My realtor said she had never seen such a comprehensive inspection report. Mr. Atwell is a consummate professional, with more than 20 years' experience as a home inspector, building consultant, teacher, former president and VP and active board member of the American Society of Home Inspectors. He is committed to educating and protecting consumers and is driving legislation to do so. Read: [*** Link removed ***] I highly recommend J May Home Inspection."

"Tim and his company, On Top Roofing, definitely went the extra mile for us.    We had damage to our roof caused by tree limbs that fell on it during  the October 2011 storm.   The original adjuster that our insurance company sent only inspected the roof from the ground and we were only given enough money to replace a few damaged shingles.
Tim (of On Top Roofing) did a thorough inspection of the roof and found quite a bit of damage to the roof.  He provided an estimate and advised us that the entire  roof needed to be replaced because of the extensive damage and the impossibility of matching new shingles with the old.  He advised that we talk with our insurance agent  to get another (roof expert) adjuster to come-out and look at the roof.  The insurance company sent a roof expert to take a look at our roof - and Tim came to our house to meet the adjuster and discuss the damage.  The second adjuster did a thorough inspection of the roof and agreed with Tim that roof need to be replaced.
Tim dropped off sample roof tiles, so we could pick out the color and style of the new shingles.   He and his crew showed-up on the agreed upon day and finished the roof quickly (two days).  They did a good job cleaning up.
He he came back a few days later to walk us through his work and make sure there was nothing left to finish up.  And,  he was good with returning calls and communicated well.
The high-end architectural shingles make the whole house look great.

"Lance was was great to work with. He was friendly, easygoing and no pressure. DaBella (Lance) was the only contractor that actually inspected the attic space as well as the roof exterior! Lance also provided pictures and explained everything he saw. Our project has yet to kick off, but I would suggest anyone in the market for a roof, to give them a call. If nothing else, you will get a honest assessment."

FAQs for home inspection projects in Lancaster, 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.
