Imperial Inspection Services is an Attleboro team of inspectors — Mark Vitiello, David (Dave) Edgren, and Stephen among them — who walk buyers through the house rather than handing over a report and moving on. The same line repeats across nearly a hundred reviews going back to 2022: whoever shows up walks you through room by room and answers whatever comes up along the way. The clearest example of what that's worth: in a 2022 review, a buyer described David spending over four hours going through "every nook and cranny" of a house their realtor had called perfect, and the inspection turned up enough that they backed out — saving, in their words, hundreds of thousands of dollars. Another 2022 review describes David flagging aging HVAC systems, wood rot, a water leak, inoperable windows, inadequate insulation, and rodent evidence in a single property. More recent reviews describe the same pattern at a smaller scale — reports that arrive the same day as the inspection, often with photos attached, and buyers who come back for a second or third inspection asking for the same person. BBB rates the company A+. One thing worth checking before booking: the state registry shows the company's Massachusetts home inspector license expired on 2024-05-31 — worth confirming current standing directly before scheduling. Imperial is a strong pick for a first-time buyer who wants someone willing to slow down and explain what they're looking at as they go. It's a team operation, not a single inspector, and the reviews show buyers requesting specific people by name — so ask who's assigned before the appointment.
David is the best! He has inspected 2 houses for us and explains everything perfectly.
Mark did a great job and pointed out areas that I would have never seen let alone understood. He helped me make a decision on the purchase and in this case I walked away. His knowledge is invaluable ! I highly recommend his inspection services.
Friendly, prompt, great attention to detail and quick results with photos!
Mark was great! Highly recommend. Thank you
David was great! Very friendly and thorough on the inspection of our new home!
