Ripaldi Home Inspections

Ripaldi Home Inspections is a New Hampshire home and commercial inspection business. New Hampshire's registry lists an active home inspector license (No. 00370), verified against the state registry, held by Raymond R Ripaldi — though every review on file, spanning nearly a decade, refers to the inspector personally as Peter or Pete, and several describe him working alongside a partner named Zack. The written record is deep and overwhelmingly positive: 157 reviews since 2016 across six sources, 21 of them in the last six months alone, virtually all five stars. Reviewers consistently praise thorough, unhurried inspections — walking through findings room by room, answering every question, and explaining what was found in plain language. Several describe a drone used to inspect roofs and chimneys, same-day report delivery, and repeat business from past customers. Angi and HomeAdvisor each show a perfect 5.0 rating from six reviews, and Google shows 5 stars from 417 ratings. One clear exception stands out. In a May 2025 review, a homeowner said that after moving in they found loose outlets, a clogged drain, and cracks in a basement wall and garage floor that they felt should have been noted in the report, and said they would not recommend the service — a specific, detailed complaint against an otherwise consistent record. Ripaldi looks like a strong choice for buyers who want a hands-on inspector who explains findings clearly and delivers a fast report; before booking, it's worth confirming who will personally perform the inspection, since customer-facing names differ from the state's registry holder of record.
