John was prompt to the appointment and very friendly throughout the entire process. He was thorough and explained things to me in a way I could understand. He wanted to make sure I understood anything that was a potential problem and what would be in the report. Not only was he amazing during the inspection, his report was extremely helpful. It was detailed, organized, and includes pictures which are so helpful. I’d absolutely recommend Home Quest to anybody looking for an inspector!

I recently purchased a home and I worked with John and Home Quest Inspection. I could not have found a better inspector. John is a thorough, thoughtful inspector and very generous with his knowledge and experience. The new home had a few things I wasn’t familiar with, like well water, and John did a great job at explaining the ins and outs, pros and cons, which I greatly appreciated given my lack of experience. Another thing I appreciated very much was John’s availability after the inspection, answering many questions I didn’t have during the inspection. I would recommend Home Quest Inspections in a heartbeat.

This was my first experience with having a home inspection. I will recommend Home Quest to anyone who asks who to contact for an inspection. John is excellent. He is professional, courteous, knowledgeable and caring. He patiently answered all my questions and explained different items. He even helped this old lady negotiate a set of stairs which do not have a railing... Thank you, John!!

John was incredibly thorough and helpful. We are first time home buyers and he was extremely patient, taking his time to explain every question we had and was super clear and explicit when we wanted to better understand parts of the inspection. He spent over three hours at our new home and didn’t mind us walking along with him, even into crawl spaces and the basement. Even after receiving the formal report, he spent another 45 minutes on the phone with us to re-explain a few things and give us advice based on his decades of experience. He did more than the job asked of him, sharing personal recommendations for people who could help us with some updates/repairs. Totally trust him and treated us as if he was giving advice to his own kids! Thank you, John!!

I recently had the pleasure of working with John from HomeQuest, and I can’t speak highly enough about the experience. From start to finish, the service was exemplary. The thoroughness and attention to detail demonstrated was truly impressive. They didn’t just scratch the surface—they delved into every nook and cranny, providing a comprehensive and clear assessment of the property. The communication was top-notch, with prompt responses and detailed explanations of their findings. Their professionalism and expertise instilled a great deal of confidence and made the entire process seamless and stress-free. I am very satisfied with the quality of their work and the level of service they provided. Without a doubt, I will be using HomeQuest again for any future inspection needs. Highly recommended!

What You Can Expect From Our Inspections:

Whenever you are buying a home, you need to have the property thoroughly inspected before you close the deal. If you neglect this important task, you could end up discovering that the home has many problems that you were unaware of. These problems could be quite expensive to repair. Learn More About Buyer Inspection.

Whether you are selling your home on your own or working with a realtor, it’s always a good idea to have a professional home inspection. Knowledge is power. All homes have strengths and weaknesses: we help explain how serious the problems are and which should be addressed immediately and which can wait. The more you know about your home, the more prepared you will be for negotiation. Learn More About Pre-Listing Inspection.

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas found in soils, rock, and water throughout the U.S. Radon causes lung cancer, and is a threat to health because it tends to collect in homes, sometimes to very high concentrations. Learn More About Radon Testing.

Water contaminants (Well Water or City Water): Drinking water, especially well water, may contain several contaminants, some hazardous and some not. Nevertheless, even when the water supply appears safe, problems can be present. We always recommend testing well water during a real estate transaction for bacteria, Physical and inorganic Chemicals, and Radon. City water should also be tested periodically. Learn More About Water Testing Quality.

Home Quest Home Inspection will visually inspect the well system equipment and observed the performance of the equipment. However, we do not dismantle the well equipment to determine the condition of the well pump or perform well water recovery tests. Well water system repairs can be expensive. Learn More About Well System Inspection.

Septic system repairs can be expensive, therefore we recommend that our clients have an independent septic system inspection.

An independent septic contractor will locate and inspect the septic tank, and check the flow throughout the system. Learn More About Septic System Inspection.

A typical homeowner’s insurance policy does not cover destruction caused by termites, even though they cause over 1 billion dollars in damage to homes throughout the United States each year. It’s important that homeowners understand the threat of termites, and take the necessary steps to protect their homes. Learn More About Termite Inspection.

Our builder’s warranty provides coverage for a full year from the date of closing, ensuring that you’re protected against unforeseen issues that may arise during your first year in your new home. Learn More About Builders Warranty.

The Most Comprehensive Shelton, CT Home Inspection Company

Now that you’ve found a home that you love and want to buy, here’s a thought: Let your head take over for your heart. Make certain this is really the wonderful place it appears to be.

The last thing you want is to move into a home unaware of existing or potential problems. Problems that could be costly to repair or, worse, beyond repair.

If for some reason you can’t join us, don’t worry. Of course, we prefer you to be present at your inspection, but sometimes it’s just not possible. We take pictures and LOTS of notes. We’ll email the full report to you by the end of the inspection day, and we can schedule a time to speak by phone to answer your questions.
