Verified record
Cornerstone Home Inspection is based in Rehoboth and says it has provided home inspections for 25 years. Owner-operator Chip Grassie conducts inspections personally; the company also offers radon testing and wood-destroying pest inspections. A 2023 Google reviewer described Chip as thorough, knowledgeable, professional, responsive to questions, and worth recommending. A 2024 Google reviewer reported a serious problem after an inspection, saying basement flooding, openings, and mold were not identified; that account is specific but represents one older review alongside one positive review. Google currently shows 3.5 stars from eight ratings, while the two written reviews on file date from 2023 and 2024. Before booking, ask how the inspection scope addresses basements, moisture, mold indicators, and the specific systems in your property, and confirm the deliverables and timing for any optional radon or pest work. The website states that reports include area-by-area findings, repair or replacement recommendations, and digital photographs. Cornerstone may fit buyers seeking a personally conducted inspection and detailed report, particularly in southeastern Massachusetts or Rhode Island. Confirm current availability, the exact inspection scope, and the status of the licenses listed on the company website.

“I’m leaning towards Chip with Cornerstone Home inspections”
Never trust an inspector that your realtor sets up for you. Lesson learned. First time homebuyers suffer because of negligence and sales pushing. Not only did my basement flood in multiple spots with gaping holes that were not pointed out in inspection, there is also mold issues that were totally ignored and not mentioned.
You couldn't ask for a more thorough, knowledgeable and professional home inspector. Chip was fantastic and answered all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns. I would recommend him to anyone who needs a home inspected.
