Veriguard holds the 'Certified Master Inspector' designation: The housing industry is ever-changing, and the homes we live in today differ greatly from those of yesterday. As time goes by, construction methods and technologies evolve, requiring the entire industry to adapt-including home inspectors. At Veriguard Home Inspections, we offer a property inspection that will clearly illuminate the condition of any home. We set our standards high, aiming to provide our clients with specific details rather than generalities.
Services
Phil Vitanzo is the owner and certified home inspector of Veriguard Home Inspections, where we offer the most experienced inspection services to the Hackensack and Bergen County NJ areas. These include certified home inspections, pre-listing inspections, re-inspections, mold inspections, termite inspections, radon inspections, and new construction inspections.
Veriguard Home Inspections offers investigative home inspection services to Northern New Jersey. A quality home inspector is a valuable asset to prospective homebuyers, and we take our responsibility seriously. We pay close attention to every detail of a home's condition, communicating precisely what effect a discovered defect may have on a home's integrity.
Mold can be a burden on both your home and your health if it's able to go unchecked. Our Bergen County NJ mold inspections will assess a home for any signs of established mold or moisture penetration that could pave the way for a future mold problem. As your Mold Inspector, Veriguard will not only take the time to thoroughly inspect your property but to answer any questions acknowledging your concerns for a potential mold problem.
If you haven't heard of radon, it's a good idea to do some research so that you can fully understand the risks. Our certified Bergen County NJ radon inspections will allow you to feel confident in your home's quality and safety. If the gas is able to rise up into the circulated air of a home, it can cause numerous health problems, including lung cancer.
The seller of a home should have a comprehensive understanding of their property's condition before listing it. Veriguard certified home property inspections will evaluate the most readily accessible components of a home, cluing you in to safety issues or other defective areas. With this information, you can make repairs as necessary and communicate honestly with prospective buyers.

Philip Vitanzo from Veriguard was excellent. His home inspection was thorough and highly detailed. He treated the whole process as if his family was moving into the home. After the inspection, Phil gave us a tour and pointed out areas of concern. He answered all of our questions, and he was straightforward. Phil is extremely professional and highly recommended.

Phil is a great home inspector. He was very honest and thorough. He was honest when he told us that we really did not need a termite and radon inspection. He was also very patient as my mom was with him and I was present through Facetime. He was always quick to respond and answer all my questions. I would definitely use his services again and would recommend him to anyone!! A++

We got water in the basement during the recent storm and I smelled what I thought was mold after the carpet dried so I looked for the mold inspection company with the best reviews. Smart move on my part because I found Phil. He responded to the message I left within the hour and came 2 days later. After inspecting all 3 floors he assured us there was no mold anywhere, just a little mildew that he told me how to get rid of myself. What a relief! Before you call a mold remediation company, call Phil and find out if it's really necessary to spend so much money.

What can I say that others haven't already said about Phil? During Summer 2020 (peak pandemic) he came to inspect not one but two houses for us. He was extremely forthcoming and honest with both inspections. He gave us clear feedback in a way that was easy for us to understanding. Buying a house, especially for the first time, can be very daunting. Let alone 9 months pregnant, as I was. It is hard to know who to trust in the process. Phil is truly that neutral third party you need to help you figure out if a home is right for you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Adding the the list of 5-star reviews. Phil's manner, work ethic, experience and even his language on the report are all top-notch. He was able to clearly explain more complicated issues to someone like me who knows very little about building/code/materials, etc.
Most importantly, his report clearly demonstrates major issues that become issues for buyers. This greatly helped us to make our ultimate decision on the property. His report also demonstrated life cycles of everything and how things should be maintained for the sake of property's value and life span which is really helpful for the buyers

Phil did a fantastic job with our home inspection. He was very thorough and detailed. I appreciated his follow up and the recommendations he provided. He was also great in providing us tips on how best we maintain the home going forward. I would have no hesitation recommending Phil for any future inspection.

Phil’s 5 star reputation is no mistake. I was under a lot of pressure to have an inspector come under very short notice. I had no experience getting a home inspector and I decided to shoot my shot with Veriguard. Even though it was later in the day, he called me immediately and we were able to set something up within the tight time frame we had to work within. As I mentioned I had no idea what to expect and on our initial phone call he explained what he offered in the most simple straight forward way possible.
When we got off the phone he set me up with a login to the Veriguard tool where I

Being a Real Estate Agent and having gone through many home inspections, I can say without a doubt Phil's was the most extensive and thorough. Not only that, he gave an honest and informative opinion on the severity of problems he encountered and told the buyers what mattered the most. Definitely will call Phil for my next inspection!

Phil is a very professional and knowledgeable individual. He has a vast amount of tools to help bring to light any problems a home may or may not have. He explains things clearly and gave us a lot of information that could potentially help / make our lives a lot easier. His whole business setup is easy to use, up to date and the whole experience made us feel really confident. His process is quick but detailed. He moves and talks in a way where you can tell that years of experience and hard work got him to where he is. He did not skip over a thing. Phil is who you NEED when you need a pre purchase
