Recibí un trato muy profesional es una persona muy agradable

Carlos was so amazing to work with! He helped explain everything to us throughout the inspection process and got the report back to us in less than 24 hours! Very friendly and easy to work with, would absolutely recommend. He also did not rush through the inspection and felt he conducted a very thorough look over the entire property as well.

Excellent service by Dean Murphy at Shoveltown. Very knowledgeable, professional, and courteous. Provided valuable service and clear explanations!

Dean and his team are very professional, knowledgeable and easy to work with 🙂 Dean is extremely thorough. It was because of this that he noticed a major issue with the HVAC system that prior inspectors missed and which could have proved a major hazard to myself as well as my new home. There were several other items caught and will now be remediated prior to closing. Dean also followed up immediately after providing his report to go over all of it and fully answered all of my questions and concerns. I cannot express enough of how happy and reassured I am that I chose Shoveltown to do my home inspection, and I will definitely recommend them to everyone I know! Thank you Dean!!!!

Dean was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and honest throughout the entire process. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience with Carlos from Shoveltown Home Inspections. He was very thorough and happy to explain his process as he went through our multi-family home inspection. His report was very detailed, and was sent to us in less than 24 hours. There were a couple of items noted by a plumber who visited after the fact that were omitted from the report, but other than that we were very pleased with the service we received.

Always excellent!

Dean completed a single family home inspection for us. His expertise is incredible, we had a great experience. I highly recommend his services.

I had Carlos Moreno for an inspector he was detailed and accurate he did an excellent job.

We had a great experience with Foster! He was thorough, professional, and took the time to carefully explain everything he found during the inspection. He was knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and made sure we understood both the major issues and the smaller things to keep an eye on. We really appreciated his attention to detail, and we felt much more confident moving forward with our home purchase. Highly recommend Foster & Shoveltown Home Inspections!!

Very detail-oriented and thorough. They identified and addressed many minor issues as well as a few major ones. The service was excellent, and the work was done very professionally. I truly appreciate the great service and a job well done!

Dean missed some obvious things. After moving into our beach home we turned on exterior shower and had burst pipes in 8 places outside. He never turned on water and that work cost us $2500 to redo. Will not use Shoveltown again.

Very knowledgeable and did a really complete job, bravo. Even the small details were shared.

Excelente trabajo 👏

Foster provided a thorough, thoughtful and insightful inspection of our home. The purpose of our inspection was to identify areas we should focus on repairing as we are thinking about moving in 5 years or so.

Shoveltown Home Inspections is the only choice

The inspector came way before the scheduled time and gave a very informative and detailed inspection. He was great answering any questions we had and very helpful at referring us to what steps we need to take after. He was very respectful and very friendly.

We are so grateful to have had Dean conduct our home inspection. We were buying a very old home—originally built in 1660—and were understandably nervous about what we might be getting ourselves into. Dean was incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process. He took the time to walk us through everything he found, explain what was important, and answer every question we had along the way.

His knowledge of old homes was invaluable and gave us so much confidence moving forward with the purchase. The final report was detailed, clear, and incredibly helpful as we thought through both immediate priorities and future projects. Beyond his expertise, Dean was also just a pleasure to spend the day with—kind, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping us understand our new home!

We couldn’t recommend him more highly, especially to anyone purchasing an older or historic property. Thank you, Dean!

Very informative and professional

I highly recommend Dean. He was super thorough and really knew his stuff. He was fully booked and squeezed us in because we really wanted to work with him after reading his reviews. He showed up early and inspected the outside of the house with his drone. The inspection report was very detailed and included pictures for visual purposes. We feel at ease going into a new home with the proper knowledge needed to move forward. Thank you Dean!

Foster is a fantastic home inspector. He does a thorough job and explains and prioritizes any repairs or problems he sees along the way. He is the guy to call!!

We needed an inspection for a very old home. Shoveltown produced an extremely thorough report, utilizing a drone to see the chimneys and other technologies to check for water damage. Dean's report was extensive and he spotted a potential issue that other less experienced inspectors might have missed that has the potential to cost us hundreds of thousands to mitigate.

If you have an old and/or antique home, I recommend Shoveltown. They did a great job working with our schedule to book the inspection and offered a great referral for a lead inspector. He was also very communicative through the whole process. Thank you, Dean!

Foster was punctual, thorough and honest. Very detailed and specified some items that were really not necessary and optional.

Extremely thorough! Foster in particular was great to work with! Made the process extremely easy and explained everything very clearly and easily!

Excellent home inspection. Nice, honest and very thorough and professional. Had a full write up done the next morning. If you heed a home inspection, I would definitely recommend him if he is available 😊

Great experience working with them. They were thorough and communicative. Ensured that we knew and understood everything they observed/found and gave us their honest take on the level of seriousness of the issue. Also helped us understand all of the appliances, systems and switches. Their expertise on Hingham homes and buildings in general was clear- would recommend!

Very detail oriented pre purchase home inspection. Gave us great insight into the property.

As a buyers agent, its always tough to make a call on who to reccomend for an inspector. Dean/ShovelTown did an amazing job on a recent inpsection and was a huge asset as part of the purchase process for my client.

Dean was great. Strong attention to detail and enjoyable to work with.

A very good home inspector.

Dean was very focused and detailed inspecting every inch of the 3250 sq ft home my son and daughter in law were considering. He found a lot more issues that were not apparent when we first toured the home. I'm very satisfied with his inspection and will call him again.

Foster was very thorough and professional throughout our inspection process. Thanks again Foster
