"Dave Pagano did an excellent job with the inspection we needed. He showed up and was ready to start on time, was extremely professional, and addressed all of our concerns and then some. His report was extremely detailed and was returned in a timely manner. If we need any more inspections done in the area or if I know of anyone who needs one, I will definitely recommend Dave."
