Smart-Hammer was great to work with. We had a water penetration problem and over the course of…read morefive+ years we attempted to remediate it, including a failed French drain and a retaining wall/regrade of the opposite side. Jorge came to evaluate our property right at the appointed time and immediately identified the cause of our issue. The original construction of the garage was not correct and was missing a concrete curb on top of the slab which the wall should have been built on. It was encouraging to hear his assessment, as it matched the assessment of an independent architect as well. Jorge and the Smart-Hammer team provided me two quotes which he was confident would resolve the issue. One was to dig a trench and apply a waterproof membrane (which he mentioned would be a good solution). The other was to correct the construction by cutting the wall, building a concrete curb, and sealing the opposite side with waterproofing material (which he considered the best option). The first quote was the same as other quotes I had received. However the quote to rebuild the wall was far less expensive than anticipated (the other projects we had done in the past cost the same if not more). If we were going to go through the process, we might as well have it done right. We agreed to have him rebuild the wall which only took three days (weather did disrupt their schedule). The team showed up right on time (if not a few minutes earlier) and got straight to work. They were tidy and cleaned up as they were working. I was thoroughly surprised at their speedy performance, and at how detail oriented they were. The wall looks great and they completed the task excellently. Fortunately/unfortunately we haven't had heavy rain to confirm that the issue was resolved until just recently. Finally, I can say that we're not getting any water in the garage. The concrete blocks are dry and I don't have to worry about the wood sill plate in the house rotting any further. I really wish that I had known about Smart-Hammer before going through all our previous projects to have it corrected earlier and save money in the long run. Thank you, Smart-Hammer for knocking this project out of the park and giving me peace of mind for years to come.

However, they both went into the apartment and failed to take one of my pieces of luggage inside, which was left on the street. The luggage, with hundreds of dollars of clothing inside, was stolen. After the manager told me to place a claim request for the stolen property about a month ago, I have inquired about the request and have not received a response from the company. Even though the move was exceptional, I'm reviewing this company based on their accountability when making a mistake.

The job was half done. I told him and asked him to come back and complete the job and he said it's normal for the weeds to come back and that a lot of his customers have him weed on a monthly basis... maybe a weed here or there, but I paid well for weeding and mulching to eradicate weeds and this was not our arrangement. Did not seem to understand that to keep weeds from growing back, he should have put down weed mat or sprayed - he did not do either and did not raise either as 'extra'. So, $300 for these areas and 2 weeks later it looks like my yard bed is heading back to where we started. Spraying here and there is reasonable as a homeowner, but as a landscaping company, I expected better service and more knowledge. He told me he did his job well and isn't coming back. I wanted to give a chance for someone to come back and correct, but he said no, so I want to leave an honest review for other yelp users looking for a similar project.

Chuck Itte and I met at a property I manage this week. The inspection went really well, he chatted with the tenants and told me what he thought were important issues to work on within the home. For a single-family home, the inspection did not take too much time - another plus! I highly recommend Chuck and Lisa of Itte Associates for your upcoming home inspection. They are a great team who's professional, prompt, honest and friendly! Itte Associates is the best home inspection company I've ever worked with - hire them today!

Chuck Itte performed a home inspection for us for our most recent home purchase (as well as for a…read morehome where our offer was not accepted). Chuck is thorough, professional, and honest with his clients about the quality of the home being purchased -- the positives and the negatives. When he found out it was our first home, throughout the inspection, he mentored us on various preventative maintenance tasks we should do over the years to keep our home in good condition. The day after the inspection, we received a comprehensive digital report. Weeks after the inspection, when we had questions about an item Chuck found, he was more than happy to spend the extra time over the phone helping us talk through our various options. Check has an extensive knowledge of building materials and construction techniques and how they have changed over time. His knowledge is so extensive that he was even able to explain to us, in simple terms, the science behind some of the discoloration of bricks in the basement of one of the houses he inspected for us. If you're looking for a top quality home inspector in the DC area, Chuck Itte is the way to go.
