Mr. Ciatto is a very skilled Home Inspector. I recommend him to all of my buyers. I know that when Mr. Ciatto is the home inspector, my client will receive a detailed report on the condition of the home in a timely and efficient manner. He is excellent for the first home buyer as he answers every question in terms which they will understand without being condescending. He is equally excellent for the experienced buyer or investor as he is knowledgeable about all style home structures and can answer every question with ease. For the Realtor, Mr. Ciatto is able to explain to the buyer the concerns without creating a sense of panic to your client.

He was very thorough. This is my first house that I have purchased. James had no problems with my husband and I following him around as he did the inspection, my father also follwed him around the house. He stopped to explain everything that he was putting in his laptop. He was very helpful to answer our questions. James was wonderful and I would recommend him again to my friends.

If you ever need a detail inspection of your home, you need to call James to do the job. He spent hours going over everything. Answered all my questions and wasn't in a rush to complete the job. His written report was 28 pages long and he did an excellent job. I would absolutely hire him again !! Thanks Jim for a wonderful job :} Lynn S Totowa NJ

- D.G., Sea Girt NJ, March 2011
Jim, We thank you for your inspection. Now we know why your company name is, "TOP NOTCH HOME INSPECTION"It is truly a Top Notch report. Very explicit, very defined, very thorough and VERY INFORMATIVE. We have never seen such a thorough report before. When we sold our house in August, the inspection report we received was so vague, so blotchy in the print...one phrase ran into another....it was totally a bad report altogether, but then again we did not hire that inspector, the buyers did...(the 1st buyers we had) and so, now that it's time for us with buying a house, we are so glad we had you do the inspection. We thank you! Sincerely, Olga and Sam Efstratiou

Jim, I want to thank you for your continued thoroughness and, in particular, your sensitivity to my last clients' health issues. Few inspectors would have handled the homeowners with the respect that you did while continuing to be business-like and focused.
- G.J., November 2010

Gauge Attributes

Customers can Gauge service providers on the following 10 attributes. Not all attributes will apply to all service providers.

  1. Punctuality and Timely Completion: No one likes to wait or have large windows of time where service providers "might" get to them. No one likes the job to drag out because of the service provider's other projects or if it becomes apparent that the SP did not plan well.
  2. Workmanship: No one likes shoddy work, shortcuts, or tradesmen who take advantage of the customer's lack of awareness of what is good quality work.
  3. Responsibility: Many home owners do not wear shoes in their home and service providers should wear covers over their shoes when necessary. SP's should not travel into rooms that are not in the work scope. They should not use the toilet without asking. If the SP soils or breaks something, they should try to replace it.
  4. Professionalism: A Professional does not try to add unnecessary work to the contract. Nor do they try to make themselves look good by demeaning their competition or by discussing religion or politics. Professionals stand behind their price and make the experience pleasant with the customer.
  5. Cleans Up Daily: Customers like to know that each day when service providers leave the room, it is in a broom swept condition, meaning nothing laying around loose, dangerous, all cords are rolled up, and trash or debris is contained or removed. SP's should clean up at the end of the job.
  6. Friendly: No one wants to hear service providers' personal problems. The service provider should be pleasant to be around.
  7. Responsive to a Customer's Call: Call backs should be made in the same day and the service provider should do what was promised.
  8. Well Organized: Generally speaking, from start to finish, the process went well, any concerns were addressed or corrected, and the repair or project ended well with everyone satisfied.
  9. Hygiene: The service provider should look clean, smell clean, and wear shoe covers indoors when needed.
  10. Recommended: Would you recommend this individual or company?
