Its own site describes a locally owned Pillar To Post home inspection franchise, The Andrade Group, based in Charlton, MA, offering home inspections plus mold, radon, water quality and wood-destroying-organism testing for Worcester County. The site says Robert Andrade runs it, with inspector Mark Fortier on the team. Its Massachusetts home inspector license, 980-HI-1, is active on the state registry, held by Robert A Andrade. A recent customer says Robert showed and explained each item he flagged, and showed that their concerns about water infiltration were not supported. A first-time buyer writes that the report was detailed and that Robert went over everything with them. A customer using his services for the second time says he put flaws into simple levels of risk, and calls the price very fair. A buyer purchasing in another state says Robert Andrade advised on the longevity of equipment and provided a written report with photos. One recent reviewer says the inspector brought an extra pair of indoor shoes and helped estimate the longevity of the furnace and roof. A 2025 customer said Mark alerted them to a significant issue with a home they were interested in purchasing. A 2024 customer said the inspector caught several major deficiencies, which they took to the seller to have fixed before closing. A 2023 customer said they sent the 360 degree walkthrough to family and friends. A 2026 customer posted a 1-star warning: they said the inspection gave little or no mention of major structural and safety issues, that they were ghosted when they had questions afterward, and that they were dealing with a leaky roof, water in the basement and a water heater leak.
Robert was great to work with throughout the entire home inspection. He was extremely open and straightforward about everything he found—whether it was good, bad, or somewhere in between. I really appreciated that he gave honest feedback without trying to make things seem worse than they were. He also provided practical options for mitigating issues and even recommended contacts for people who could help with the work, which was incredibly helpful. Overall, I had a great experience with Robert and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a thorough, honest, and straightforward home inspector.
Excellent inspection. Robert was extremely thorough and showed and explained each of the items he flagged. He also provided clear evidence that my concerns about water infiltration were not supported by any evidence.
