Hi all,
Does anyone have a recommendation for a thorough house inspector, or a builder that could do house inspections? The house is located in Wolfeboro.
Thanks!

Many house inspectors in NH don't have licenses or certifications.
Make sure the one you get has a some sort of certificate.
Also if you are a Veteran contact the VA and they usually keep a list of preferred home inspectors.

Today's Foster's Daily Democrat/Citizen Sunday edition ran a lead story on the home inspection business. Very interesting article that you can read on-line HERE! (http://www.fosters.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070107/NEWS0202/101070152)

To find a licensed inspector, you can inquire at the Chamber of Commerce, they may have a list of members with proper credentials. The local building inspectors office office may have a list. You may also find some on a brochure rack at a realtors office.

Good luck!

We recently used Carla Horne from Grand View Home Inspectors in Meredith. She did a detailed inspection (found things that others missed) and I had the documentation in my hand the same day. Very professional. Her office is 603-279-8619.

Sorry to be slow in replying, we've been having problems with our internet lately. We decided to go with Mike Spinale at All Lakes Home Inspection. He is licensed and I think he did a great job. He will come back to check that the things he found have been fixed before we close, which will save us an extra four-plus hour drive. We are very excited to join the Winni community! Thanks to all of you and this wonderful forum for all the information provided to us newbies!
