Twin Lights Home Inspection is a one-inspector operation out of South Hamilton — Matt Walsh does the walkthroughs himself, and the reviews are strikingly consistent about why. Across 216 of them going back to 2021, the same beat keeps repeating: he narrates what he's finding as he goes, then leaves buyers with a report that's easy to actually use. Google puts the business at 5★ from 391 ratings, and Houzz shows a perfect 5.0 from a smaller pool; the last six months alone added 20 reviews with no negatives among them. The specifics back this up — one reviewer called the report portal easy to navigate, with detailed photos that made a dense inspection simple to digest; another, out of state at the time of the sale, said Matt walked the property with them over FaceTime and had the written report ready the next day. Some buyers keep coming back — one family wrote that this was the third home Matt had inspected for them, and a reviewer who described themselves as a contractor said Matt's attention to detail held up under a peer's own scrutiny. Scheduling gets flagged often too: one buyer got an inspection booked within a day or two of first reaching out. The one dent in an otherwise strong run of reviews is a single-star review from August 2022, whose author said the inspection missed a leaky roof along with mold and structural damage and warned against using the service — worth asking Matt directly what an inspection does and doesn't catch, even against reviews this consistent since. Matt Walsh's Massachusetts home inspector license is active and registry-verified. Twin Lights suits buyers who want the inspector to talk them through the house in real time rather than hand over a report cold — first-time buyers especially seem to come away with a clearer sense of what needs attention now versus later. Before booking, ask about turnaround for your closing timeline and confirm scope so you know exactly what gets checked.
A rare mix of professional, knowledgeable, and instructive. Matt was wonderful to work with.
I called Twin Lights for a house inspection before finalizing the purchase of a house I had put a deposit on. Matt responded quickly to my call and did the inspection a few days later. He did a very thorough inspection, with my son taking notes, and shared all his findings with us while we were there. I'm expecting the final report today. (inspection was yesterday.) Very professional and open to all questions, concerns and solutions. I highly recommend Twin Lights Home Inspection.
Outstanding and thorough service. Really took the time to explain what he was doing and why.
Matt was friendly and very thorough with his inspection of the condo, and answered all of my questions.
Matt was really knowledgeable and took time to explain things as he went through the inspection process. It was very helpful to know what to expect in our new home.
