Real Feedback from Happy Homeowners

Alex is the Best! Twenty years ago when we were considering a condo purchase he did the inspection. We purchased the condo and we STILL refer back to his detailed notes. However, it IS 20 years later and now we have some major maintenance issues. We "thought" we needed to replace the roof, but Thank Goodness!, we asked Alex to do another inspection. Turns out that the roof can wait, repairs to the front of the building cannot. Alex is an expert at what he does. He's on time (early), thorough and provided us with a detailed report in record time. He's also Very Nice!

Alex is an exceptionally professional and dedicated home inspector. Whether it’s an older property or new construction, he brings deep knowledge and great attention to details. He is always punctual, patient, and takes the time to explain everything clearly so clients fully understand the findings. His inspection reports are thorough and well-organized, making it easy to reference any item later. Alex is also very responsive and reliable throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

Alex is very professional and knowledgeable, and he’s done 4 or 5 inspections for me over the past 16 years. He always does a thorough job, and gives extensive reports with lots of photos (which especially helped me with an HVAC issue on my last house). I always feel comfortable asking all my questions & I appreciate that he doesn’t rush me. I can’t imagine finding a better home inspector. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again.

Alex was highly recommended by our realtor for an inspection of our home. Alex provided a thorough and detailed inspection that covered areas that needed attention, guided us on how to care for our property, and explained how the various systems in our house worked. Alex communicated this information in a clear and straightforward manner that was easy to understand as first-time home owners. Upon completion we received a detailed and well-designed report with photographs that covered all the topics Alex discussed with us. The entire inspection felt like a comprehensive course on how to care for our home. The value of the inspection was worth the price we paid. We would highly recommend Alex Steinberg and JBS Home Inspections to anyone in the Boston area.
