Peter is a true professional. As first time home buyers sometimes it can be hard to find people you know who are going to be honest with you at every turn. He walked us through our entire house with patient and education while also vocalizing his concerns and things that are just standard maintence. He made this process enjoyable instead of scary and we are so happy Peter did our inspection. Would recommend him to anyone.

We used Peter for our home inspection on 9/21/25 and couldn't have asked for a better experience. He is knowledgeable, kind, thorough, his inspection report was so organized, and we found his price to be extremely reasonable. He took the time to not just point things out to us, but explain their implications, potential solutions, and things to watch for. On top of all of that, we got the report back the same day as our inspection allowing us to keep our closing process moving. You can tell he genuinely cares about the work he does, and, as first time home buyers, he was exactly what we needed to feel confident in our purchase. 100000/10 for Peter!

Peter was extremely knowledgeable, professional and thorough. He spent a lot of time carefully explaining systems, issues, maintenance needs, etc. and it was greatly appreciated. He arrived before our scheduled start time to begin his work and delivered an excellent report on time. I highly recommend Peter.

Peter's home inspection was exceptional--thorough, incredibly well documented, and he took the time to carefully explain his process and observations. To boot, he is professional, prompt, punctual, and just an altogether nice guy. We intend to recommend Peter to everyone we encounter needing a home inspection.

We bought a two hundred year old house, and spent 3 hours with Peter. Incredible knowledge, well presented, thorough. He was totally focused on my house, my questions, and made recommendations that were very actionable. This is my 8th house, and I never was treated this well, never was helped this much as with Peter. Jeff

I'm a first time homebuyer and had Peter come do my inspection. He pointed out everything, and I mean EVERYTHING that I could possibly want to know, but did so with enough context that I could make informed, low stress decisions about what was important and what wasn't. His reports are full of information about not only what was wrong, but why it was wrong and what the problems could be if issues were left unfixed. I would absolutely recommend him to other first time buyers.

Peter performed a pre-home inspection for me and he was the consumate professional. His expertise and layman's term explanations were much appreciated. The 60+ page report blew me away in its' comprehensive detail. He was a pleasure to work with and I'd recommend him in heartbeat!

Peter is a true professional and a pleasure to work with. In one day, he came to our home, spent hours examining everything, taking many helpful photographs and providing explicit suggestions as to how to fix any issue he found. This exhaustive report was then produced and delivered to us within hours of his visit on the very same day! Highly recommend.

This is the 10th house that we have had inspected. We had not used DPW before but Peter did as thorough a job as anyone could. He gave lots of pictures and explanations. I walked around with him and he gave explanations as we went. If you are new to house buying or have not had a good inspector before, DPW should be a good choice.

Peter was amazing to work with. I would recommend him to anyone buying a home or just looking to get to know their home better. As a first time home buyer, I was worried about discovering issues with my home after buying. Peter helped alleviate these concerns. His inspection and report were extremely thorough; he includes detailed pictures and suggestions with every finding. He is friendly and patient, responding to my questions and explaining new concepts in a way that I could understand. He made me feel a lot more comfortable during such a stressful time, and I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Peter is qualified, responsible and was very thorough in our inspection. His 52-page report included everything discussed -- and more -- and pointed out multiple items on a checklist for repair. Peter is easy to contact and responds quickly. I reached out through HomeAdvisor in the middle of the night and received an email by 7 AM the next morning! The inspection cost was very reasonable! We highly recommend and thank him for his help on our behalf!

Peter was very thorough and very informative. He photographed every thing that came up and had our report back within a few hours. He broke down each issue and the process of resolving it and pointed out what could be possible issues in future. I would highly recommend him and would absolutely use him again for future home inspections.

I hired Peter based on reviews and was not disappointed. Shortly after I filled out the online inquiry, he called to tell me about his philosophy, background, and what he offers in inspection. He was the only person who did this, and I felt very comfortable with his depth of experience and the way he explained things. This was the first house I've bought (have purchased condos in the past) and the inspection was so helpful in terms of teaching me about the house and what I may need to work on in the future. He was clear about what was a safety issue and may need first priority, and what I should keep an eye on. He answered my many questions patiently. His report was detailed with lots of photos and clear language. I would use Peter in the future without hesitation, and already gave his name to a friend who is looking for an inspection as well.
