Initial Review
Service: Conducted home surveys in London
I use her for home surveys in London and she has everything very good. She’s usually very punctual and the reports are good quality. No issues, all good. I’d happily use her again.

Service: Comprehensive home inspection with full-house moisture scan and report
Daniel from Ajuda Home Inspection did a normal home inspection with a full house moisture scan and sent us a clear report. He scheduled us very quickly, was flexible with our tricky agenda, and was really attentive to the details. I wasn’t present during the inspection, so we haven’t seen any improvements yet, but everything seemed wonderful. Price felt within range and perfectly okay, and overall we liked it a lot.

Initial Review
Service: Structural engineering assessments for multiple properties, provided detailed reports
I hired Pedro a few times for structural engineering review or assessment on properties we wanted to purchase. He checked a few apartments in a big four condominiums house and also a house, and then provided a very full report with pictures, very well documented with all the information about problems, issues, and conditions. The reports helped us decide if we should move ahead and what to expect in terms of renovations and reconstruction. On one house he measured the level of humidity in some sections, which showed more serious problems and was super helpful.
