- D.G., July 2022
My home inspection through House Doctors was great. I’ve purchased four properties before and used four different home inspectors but Don and Mike were definitely the best ever. Knowledgeable, patient, and clear in explaining what was being inspected, I felt confident in going forward with my home purchase knowing I was getting reliable information. I would HIGHLY recommend this company. Extremely professional. Thanks Don!
- L.F., July 2022
Don was amazing. He professionally went through the entire house explaining the reasoning to all aspects. During my inspection Don was placed in some less than ideal environments and did not slack on the inspection of those areas, instead he got dirty, covered in spider webs, covered in dirt, dust, and who knows what else. Greatly appreciative of his willingness to go above and beyond even when it was not ideal for him.
- D.C., July 2022
Great job. Thorough. Attention to detail
- C.A., July 2022
The service with House Doctor Home Inspection INC. was amazing. Don went through every inch of the house during the home inspection and was very thorough. This is a large property and Don took the time to go through the home with a fine tooth comb. We received the inspection report the same day the inspection was conducted. Don is very professional, knowledgeable, punctual, reliable, and great to work with. He has a nice portal online where you can view the report which included tons of photos of the issues. You can easily create “request list” and email it directly. Would highly recommend House Doctor. A++

Don was a pleasure to work with. He is thorough and very knowledgeable. It was pouring rain and extremely windy weather and that did not stop him from doing the outside inspection, taking his time and continued being thorough. Don explained everything he was doing, what the expectations are of each item is and how to maintain the items that need maintain. I was very happy with him as he just took his time, answered all my questions, and very professional. I highly recommend Don for any future inspections you may have.

We have worked with Don Lariviere from House Doctor twice over the past five years and always find him to responsive, courteous, and professional. On our most recent inspection in September 2021, Don took the time to walk me though all of his finding in real time. We have never owned an older home (1945) and he was instrumental in explaining the potential issues to me. We would not hesitate to call on Don and House Doctor again. Thank you Don!

Im glad my Agent referred me to your company, like seeing local companies work together. Don was wonderful to work with, was on time and ready to go. He walked through every step of the house in and out, explaining and showing everything that was in good condition and what was found that needed to be repaired. Very thorough and knowledgeable, made it easy for ne to understand things. The report was just as detailed with everything explained and with pictures. I would highly recommend Don, and this company. The price supported the worth of time spent and place they have to crawl into for investigation. I appreciate what you did for me, Don. Thank you.
- L.L., July 2021
Don was excellent. He was knowledgeable and took the time to explain aspects of the mechanical systems that were new to me. His inspection turned up a few things that I would not have found on my own. He came fully equipped, arrived on time, worked efficiently and was very thorough. I would recommend him to my best friend.
- C.S., May 2021

Don was so thorough and professional. He took the time to explain each issue he found to me. More importantly, as a first time homebuyer, I really appreciated that he wanted to make sure I knew how to operate all of the utilities and he showed me where all of the shut off valves were. I really felt like he was there for me. Thank you Don!

As a Realtor, I see many home inspectors at work. I am confident that by recommending Don to my clients, each will be comfortable with his ability to inspect a home completely. Don is knowledgeable and diligent in the scope of his work. Equally as important, he thoroughly and clearly explains what he discovers to my clients. This allows each client to be comfortable as we continue with the home buying process or move on from it.

I have been wondering who a specific inspector was from a specific deal wanting to use him again; it was Donald Lariviere (lookin through old reports, i was able to confirm).

- S.E., Seekonk MA, August 2019
Donald was the absolute best. Inspected everything.. Told me the problems with my house and also gave me an idea of what I have to do to fix the problem. He also told me what repairs needed the most immediate attention because of safety reasons and which repairs don't need immediate repair. Before he inspected my house I just knew my house needed some work.. After he inspected my house I knew exactly what I needed to do have my house with no issues.
