Pillar To Post Home Inspectors - Nelson DeMelo

A clear explanation of what an inspection found matters as much as the inspection itself. Nelson DeMelo’s customers describe both: a June 2026 Google reviewer says the inspector answered questions politely, delivered a clear, precise report without a long wait, and helped them make decisions while looking for a family home. Another June reviewer names Nelson and praises his knowledge and efficient work. His official Pillar To Post website says he serves Rhode Island from Cumberland and has worked in the state since January 2014. Alongside home inspections, the site advertises radon and mold testing, septic and sewer inspections, water and well inspections, and wood-destroying-organism inspections. Google lists a 4.9-star average from 218 ratings. Several older customers describe how the findings reached them. In a June 2024 review, a customer says Nelson answered their questions and concerns in detail after the inspection and supplied the written report that same day. A July 2024 reviewer appreciated an emailed report and 360-degree pictures. A May 2023 customer, moving from another state and unable to attend the inspection, says Nelson checked the items they had requested beforehand and went over the report with them by phone afterward. A November 2023 reviewer describes an inspection that identified kitchen-ceiling water damage, roof damage captured with a drone, and a clogged drain. They say they received video, photos, a reference binder and estimated repair costs, then used the findings to discuss problems with the seller and reach agreements for larger repairs before closing. The same reviewer says the inspection cost less than quotes from other inspectors they had contacted. People referring buyers also describe his explanations. A June 2026 reviewer says their buyers appreciate Nelson’s suggestions for keeping household systems running and his general homeowner tips. In a November 2025 review, another person says he explained the findings clearly during an inspection for their buyers and provided the report right away.
