Gadget Home Inspection Services

Gadget Home Inspection Services is a home inspection company based at 210 Park Ave in Worcester, Massachusetts, hired mainly by people buying a house who want the property checked before they close. BBB records list it as a Massachusetts limited liability company started and incorporated on 27 September 2020, with Wandy Barosy as owner and NEWBURY GOWLD LLC as an alternate name. Alongside standard home inspections, the company's own directory listings say it offers radon testing, mold inspection, water testing and commercial building inspection. Angi and HomeAdvisor describe roughly six years of experience and state that estimates are free and credit cards are accepted - the business's own claims rather than independently checked facts. What customers who actually hired the company praise, consistently, is the paperwork and the explaining. A July 2022 reviewer described an excellent report with photos of the issues found plus recommendations, and a March 2021 reviewer called the inspection report meticulous and said the inspector took the time to explain every step to her as a first-time buyer. Another March 2021 reviewer said he answered all her questions - five pages' worth - and stayed available for follow-up questions after the report had been sent over. A few accounts also point to flexibility on price and timing: one April 2021 reviewer said the company matched a competing quote and was flexible about the date, and a June 2021 reviewer said the inspector made himself available on short notice. Reviews are filed almost entirely under Complete Home Inspection, so residential buyer inspections are clearly the core of the work rather than the commercial or testing add-ons. The main thing to weigh is how old that record is. Google shows five stars from just four ratings, and the Angi and HomeAdvisor profiles show 5.0 from 14 reviews - but those two profiles are byte-identical mirrors sharing one profile id, so it is one set of 14 reviews rather than two, and those reviews run only from March 2021 to July 2022. The newest written account anywhere in the file is from June 2023, so nothing here describes how the company operates today. Before booking, ask about the state licence. BBB's file lists a licence number of 1068 issued by the Division of Professional Licensure, but that is BBB's own listing rather than a verified registry match, and BBB itself advises confirming licensing directly with the agency. BBB has also not issued a rating, saying it does not have sufficient information to do so, and the business is not BBB accredited - worth knowing, though neither is a complaint against the company, and no complaints or government actions appear anywhere in the record.
