Old House Home Inspectors®
We are the old house specialists
At Old House Home Inspectors®, we specialize in providing investigative home inspections for older residences and historic properties throughout Rhode Island and Massachusetts.
There Is Something Special About an Old House
An old home is a special place, rich with memories, history, and often a rustic charm that simply can’t be replicated in modern home design. At Old House Home Inspectors®, we have a passion for understanding the way old houses were built, from the construction techniques to the materials used- and most importantly for you as a prospective buyer, our expertise enables us to identify the unique issues which can be associated with older properties.
From 120-year-old Victorians to 40-year-old bungalows, we’ve inspected homes from all eras and of every style, and we are prepared to help you safely invest in an old home for which you hope to live in and care for.

Knowledge, Experience, Passion
Old House Home Inspectors have a true passion for older homes and a healthy obsession with historical architecture- previously renovating several properties, including 3 properties that went on to win awards from the Providence Preservation Society.
Between our many years of training, certifications, and hands-on experience, we’ve developed a systematic process for inspecting old houses which leaves no stone unturned, providing results that you can rely on.
Unanticipated repairs to the structure of an older home and a pressing need for upgraded systems can quickly become a financial burden—which is why we go the extra mile to provide knowledge about potential areas of concern well before you make a final purchase.
Timely Inspection Reports Provide the Facts You Need
We review, organize, and add remarks to our findings immediately after a home inspection, delivering the completed inspection report within just 24 hours. Every component that was evaluated will have its condition thoroughly described, including straightforward explanations about defective areas that will benefit from repair, replacement, or other improvements. Photographs and videos from the inspection will be attached throughout the report as necessary.
