Do you offer any guarantee?
Yes. We guarantee that the home will pass inspection or we will pay the $60 re-inspection fee. The only exception to this would be if there was something wrong with the internal wiring of the house.
What is included in your service fee?
We will do a pre-inspection walkthrough, schedule the inspection, install any detectors needed, meet the fire marshal for the inspection, and coordinate the certificate with you. We will also take any readings you may need, such as oil amounts or gas and water meter levels.
What are the additional expenses I might incur?
The only additional expenses you would incur are the fire marshal fee and the cost of any detectors that might be needed to become compliant with current codes. You can expect to pay the same amount it would cost off the shelf at your local Home Depot or Lowes. Please visit our Pricing page for a complete list.
How do I order your service?
You can email us at Justin@RIDetectorInspector.com or call/text Justin at 401-470-6749.
How and when do I pay you?
Payment is due upon completion of the inspection. We accept CashApp, Venmo, Zelle, Cash or Check made out to Justin Ingerson.
What information do you need from me?
We need the house address, year built, closing date, lockbox code or key location, and the seller's name and phone number if they are still occupying the house.
Does somebody need to be present for the inspection?
No. As long as we have a way to get in — such as a lockbox code, alarm code, or key placement — we will meet the fire marshal for you.
What lead time can I expect?
Appointments are often available within a few days. Lead time depends on the city or town's fire department schedule, so the earlier you call, the better.
What area do you cover?
We cover all of Rhode Island and Southeastern Massachusetts.
Can you do multi-family homes?
Yes, we handle multi-family homes often.
What is the best way to contact you?
The best way to reach us is by calling or texting Justin at 401-470-6749, or by email at Justin@RIDetectorInspector.com.
