Many thanks for your time in coming by to inspect our home. While the process itself was short, the peace of mind you've given my family runs long and is much appreciated. Nothing but good things to say regarding all aspects of your business. I really appreciate the complete inspection performed on the home I just purchased!
David Polo of Polo & Associates is your pool inspector with NSPF (National Swimming Pool Foundation), CPO (Certified Pool & Spa Operator) & CPI (Certified Pool Inspector) #457213 credentials! Your pool, spa and hot tub structures and systems can be assessed as a "stand alone" inspection or performed simultaneously during our home inspection package at a discounted rate!
Over the last 10 years Underground Oil Tanks have become a big problem in New Jersey! This is one reason why many attorneys request an oil tank search, scan or sweep prior to the sale of a property. This is especially important with homes more than 30 years old. Similar to lead paint, the older the home, the higher the likelihood it exists on your property.
Lead based paint has been banned since 1978. It is estimated that over 75% of pre-1978 dwellings contain lead paint. The older the home the more likely. It has been reported that 9 out of 10 homes in some New Jersey towns contain lead paint. Lead paint, dust or chips can be especially harmful to children and pregnant mothers.
David Polo from Polo & Associates is a Certified Federal & EPA Asbestos Building Inspector #55762 (#renews annually). Prior to demolishing any structure, your town requires you to submit a certified asbestos report with lab results for demo approval. We provide this service for you.

If you need suspected asbestos samples taken at or after your home inspection we are also certified to perform this service including state accredited lab results as well.Presumed Asbestos Containing Materials (PACM)/Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) may be present in any home or structure, especially if built prior to 1990.

Dave was thorough, efficient, and very quick to turn around his report. He has saved me on two home purchases by his ability to assess the situation. And has made me feel confident on my current purchase. Thanks, Dave!

David was direct and informative. He turned around the main inspection report the same day which was appreciated, and sent the radon and mold reports the same day he received them. Quick and efficient process.

Update: I am a real person, I spoke with Dave this morning. I am not a competitor, just a new home owner looking for some guidance. When I try to explain my situation to Dave, he had a bad attitude from the beginning. He quickly escalated the call and started yelling at me saying that he would not help me and just hung up on me. If this is how you would act with a potential customer, I cannot imagine actually working with this company. Dave's bedside manner is a clear indication of how he runs his business. I will not be utilizing your services.
I would not recommend Polo & Associates Home Inspections

Extremely pleased with every aspect. We spoke and were able to schedule an inspection right away. Before and after the inspection, I felt that I could answer any questions that I may have (as a first-time buyer). And most importantly, his thorough inspection and report were detailed, informative and easy to understand. Beyond appreciative.

Like many first time home buyers, I was a nervous wreck. Luckily for me, I had Dave Polo do my pool inspection. I had a million and one questions about the maintenance of the pool, its current condition, and how each item worked but that didn’t phase Dave. Dave thoroughly answered each and every question. He even gave me advice on how to properly maintain the pool. The pool inspection report which I received the next morning was detailed with pictures showing his findings. If you’re in the market for a home inspector, Dave Polo is your guy! Tell him I sent you! Thanks again Dave!

Dave Polo is THE go to for home inspections! He was quick to take me on as a client, responsive to the dates that were set to be met, he was a fantastic inspector and an overall great guy to talk to. Knowledgeable and professional. Price was also fantastic. I know it’s part of his job, but I feel he just goes above and beyond for his clients.

David performed a full home inspection for us. Setting up an appointment and communication with him was very easy and hassle-free. As first time home buyers, we didn't know much about the process and what to expect, but David was very professional and thorough. Not only did he do his job very well, but made sure it was an educational experience for us. He left no stone unturned and we felt very confident in his abilities. We had the inspection report less than 24 hours later which was very detailed. Not only is David great at his job, but was very personable and made the entire experience enjoyable

We used Dave to do our home inspection for a house we were purchasing. He was very knowledgeable and pointed out many things here and there that we could benefit from fixing. Although I took notes throughout the inspection, Dave provides a very detailed report that we can reference. On top of everything, he was very responsive and attentive with communication and was able to conduct our inspection with short notice. Would definitely recommend Dave for your inspection needs.

David was very thorough in his inspection. As a first time homeowner, also moving out on my own, his services were valuable to me. Not only did he take his time to make sure every inch of the home was inspected, he also taught me how to maintenance the home and what to look out for in certain scenarios. Definitely a great value for your money. He is very knowledgeable, and gave timely responses when I drafted my repair request list to sellers. His services extend beyond the inspection, would hire him again in the future.
