Verified record
Richard Stewart Home Inspector is a one-inspector operation based on Old Sandwich Road in Plymouth, MA, and its Massachusetts home inspector licence is active in the state registry under Richard H Stewart. The written record is small and dated: Google shows 5★ from 3 ratings, and the two written reviews both come from September 2021. One homeowner described Richard listening to every concern about the property without rushing, explaining each finding in plain terms, and photographing every issue that needed attention; the other called him extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Before booking, ask what the written report looks like and how soon it arrives, and confirm his current fee and availability, since the accounts on file are several years old. A reasonable call for a buyer on the South Shore who wants a licensed inspector who walks the house with them; confirm the report format and turnaround first.
When he came to my home he took care to put on a face mask. He listened to all my concerns about the property, and didn't rush me. Richard explained everything to me in a way that I could understand. He also took pictures of evert issue that needed addressing and highlighted it to me, pointing it out with a red arrow in the picture. He was very personable and easy to deal with. He spent four hours at my property, and charged me a reasonable amount, for the report, his expertise and advice. I highly recommend him.
Richard is extremely knowledgeable, and very thorough. Excellent inspector and highly recommended.
