Jim Angell is the inspector behind Angell Home Inspection Services. The company describes itself as a veteran-owned home inspection business and says it has been in business for 10 years, with a stated service area that includes Suffield, Enfield, Windsor, Hartford, West Hartford and Farmington. On Google it shows 5 stars from 269 ratings. A recent customer said Jim spent nearly four hours at the property and delivered a color-coded report that separated what needed immediate attention from what could wait. A customer buying a house built in the 1700s said they asked him 200 questions and he answered every single one. One recent customer said Jim gave a deeply discounted rate after the property turned out to be in much worse condition than expected, and they decided against buying that home. A 2026 reviewer said Jim walked them through septic systems, well water and boilers, and that the report was delivered within a few hours. A 2026 customer said he walked the whole perimeter of the home despite over 4 feet of snow in some areas. A 2025 customer said Jim called before the inspection to point out they had signed up online for more tests than they needed, saving them over $100. A 2024 customer said the report ran 117 pages and listed minor issues that gave them leverage for a several-thousand-dollar credit on the house. A 2024 reviewer wrote that Jim was the only one who would be performing the inspection, and said he inspected a home over 240 years old for them. A 2023 customer said Jim came to their condo within an hour to inspect only the condo deck. Its Connecticut home inspector licence, HOI.0000991, held by James L Angell, is active.
Jim is a fantastic home inspector and a stand-up guy! He was very straight-forward with us throughout the whole process, clearly VERY knowledgeable and experienced, and incredibly thorough. He also gave us a deeply discounted rate after it was discovered that the property we were having inspected was in much worse condition than expected, which may or may not have been somewhat misrepresented beforehand. While we decided against purchasing that home, Jim is now THE home inspector we will be using as we continue our home search.
I have been a full time Realtor in CT for 39+ years and Jim is one of the most honest, thorough home inspectors I have EVER found. He is extremely knowledgeable and I would not hesitate to use his services again.
Very knowledgeable and thorough, will recommend to anyone buying a home!
Great information and very knowledge
Great experience! Jim was incredibly thorough in his inspection. He took time to explain everything and talk us through not only any issues he saw, but general home maintenance as well. He is very knowledgeable and great at giving background on historical building practices. Extremely kind and personable. A clear and thorough report. Great peace of mind for a nervous first time buyer!
