AVOID THESE PEOPLE AT ALL COSTS! The most simple item for Pillar to Post to accomplish was to take a radon test out of the box, plug it in and turn it on... Yet the inspector, Vince Ferrar, failed miserably in completing that task. He placed the detector within 2 feet of a block exterior wall, on top of a washing machine, next to a drain and a sump pit/pump and right in front of a floor drain. If you know anything about radon testing, this IS THE WORST POSSIBLE PLACE TO PUT IT. It offers inaccurate results and drastically elevates levels. Let alone an incoming storm with both rain and winds over 35mph, OF COURSE it showed high levels!
So we move on to the mold test- he takes the control sample in high winds with a storm front approaching.. It showed low levels of mold, so OF COURSE it makes the house look bad in comparison!
Idiots. I see Tom Capuano "apologizing" over and over, yet it seems he makes no changes and continues to hire and foster incompetent employees with no remorse for his actions (It's his name on the door, BTW- He's responsible for this)
Tom, I advise you to clean house, including yourself. You are obviously ignorant when it comes to training and maintaining a competent workforce.
PEOPLE ARE DEPENDING ON YOU and you let them down. You post inaccurate information to the buyers and cost sellers money. You are inept when it comes to home inspections and should look for another franchise to buy.
Our house?? The buyers walked. Due to the bad information, they chose to pass on our house.
Me? I had the house tested for mold and radon.
Results? Normal levels.
Idiots. Plain and simple, Pillar to Post is to be avoided. Unless you want a fictional report. Idiots.
Edit- I'll add this- Inspection time was 10:00AM. I showed up at the house to make sure all was OK at 9:15 to find Vince Ferrar already IN my house, explaining he "came early because he had to use the bathroom".. So we talked for a few minutes and I left. I returned later that day to find that he had cleaned us out of toilet paper. Classy.
