Ah yes, the classic “you’ve got 24 hours to inspect the house or forever hold your peace.” This crazy New Hampshire housing market makes it feel like you need to move faster than a squirrel at a bird feeder. When it comes time for the home inspection, it may feel like you are participating in… Read More »
Ah, polybutylene plumbing. The plumbing system that was all the rage in the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, and then turned into the plumbing equivalent of a bad one-night stand — fun at first, but now a complete disaster you wish you could forget. If your house has polybutylene pipes, you might want to grab a… Read More »
Hugel-what?! Let’s find out in this gardening post by our office admin, Tracey! She is our resident green-thumb. When she’s not busy being the friendly voice you are all familiar with on the phone, she’s up to her elbows in garden projects around her house. This week, she shares some pointers with us on how… Read More »
Growing up, many of us dream of owning a big house with a spacious lawn in a nice neighborhood. While this may be a dream, there might be a few reasons why you find yourself needing to purchase a home larger than the one you currently own. Perhaps you need to upsize because your family… Read More »
In this busy life that most of us lead, it can be very hard when something breaks in your house. It never happens on a day off M-F. Inevitably it is going to be at night, on the weekend or worse yet, on a holiday. Trust me. I have experienced the 2’ water fountain erupting… Read More »
So if you have read some of these blogs, you know that I don’t always have the best luck when it comes to my house and the systems in it. Owning and maintaining an above ground pool was no different! Although a home inspector doesn’t inspect swimming pools, we always offer recommendations for companies who… Read More »
I often find myself looking for inspiration for blog posts. Recently I have been having an issue with a large dog (not mine) roaming freely in my yard. I first learned this because it has been leaving very large “presents” for me… I find them near my entrance door, in my driveway, on the path… Read More »
An interview with Lauri Cotter of Financial Insurances Services, Inc. Being in the NH home inspection business, we have the pleasure of meeting with people on a daily basis who are in a state of transition. With the stresses of deciding to move, where to live, type of mortgage, how much to spend… We thought… Read More »
Congratulations on that new LG Signature 65” OLED TV! Did you get it for a good price? What’s that? How did I know? Well, I saw the box outside (and the giant screen flickering through the window!)… Although houses get broken into year-round, this is a great time of year for burglars! A quick drive… Read More »
Are you buying or selling a home? If not, does your house just seem to feel like it’s bulging at the seams? As someone who has lived in the same small house for 20+ years, my house has managed to hold and accumulate A LOT of “stuff”. Unless you are someone who manages to be… Read More »
What others
say about us
You get what you pay for sometimes- Nick’s expertise and friendly advice is easily worth many times what you pay for it. I’ve used a number of home inspectors but Nick is the most knowledgable about all the systems in a home. He is super friendly and took a lot of extra time to show me things during his inspection that will help me maintain the home later. He was also very prompt in returning calls, showing up on time, and providing a comprehensive report to me via email just hours after the inspection. I won’t need to shop around the next time I need a home inspection. Nick from Premier is our guy.
”Thank you very much for these reports and the general inspection report, put together so quickly! It feels a bit overwhelming, especially this being my first house, but it is nice to see that all the apparent issues are fairly minor. Having a list of them at the end is very convenient.
”Please let me know if there is anywhere I can leave a review, I loved working with Mark! He is awesome.
”Mark did a wonderful job on this home in Campton. The buyer seemed to really like his expertise and assuredness and knowledge of what to look for. Your company always produces a really great decisive, detailed report and it outshines others. Keep up the great work Premier and Mark!
”E. and I would like to thank you for the thorough inspection that you performed on this home. You are truly a professional in your work. We ultimately decided that this house would not be our best interest. As we continue our search and find another home, we will be reaching out to you for an inspection and hopefully be able to take that house to closing. Thank you again for your attention to details.
”Nick, Thank you for your help at the home site, the education on the workings of my new home and your detailed, comprehensive report!
”Thank you very much for meeting with us yesterday to do our home inspection, and getting these reports over to us so quickly! I will be in touch with any questions we might have! Thanks,
”Nick, thank you for your thorough inspection and taking the time to explain things to me. The report was very clear. I was dreading how I would share the things I wanted fixed from the report without sharing the whole report and then I realized I could go through the summary and create a specific report with my comments. That is a wonderful feature and very helpful to be able to quickly get my thoughts back to the realtors and seller. Thanks again. If I have any other questions, I will get back to you but all looks good right now.
”Thank you! Enjoyed the class and appreciate how hard it was for you to get the certificates emailed.
”Nick, I wanted to follow up on yesterdays courses and give you feedback. They were FANTASTIC! The live thermal imaging demonstration was great, and both courses were incredibly informative, especially taking them one after the other. Thank you for taking the time to offer the courses, it is appreciated!
