#1 Local Home Inspection Company

About Our Company

Ammon Hontz, the owner and operator of A.D. Home Inspections was born and raised in the small, old town of Jim Thorpe, PA. Throughout his life, he has worked in many aspects of both construction and remodeling on both old and new structures. Along with that, he has LIVED in both old, and custom built homes, and has a unique knowledge about both types of dwellings. Many think that newer is better, while others like a home that has “character”. Well, newer is not always better, and character at times, can bring expenses and problems that would be unforeseen by the untrained, inexperienced eye. On the opposite end of that spectrum, newer CAN be better IF it is done properly. Just as character CAN add to the home owning experience, IF you are not expecting the 100 year old house to have all the modern code standards that today’s unified building code demands.

Excellent training

Committed to you

It is this experience, along with our 10+ years in the business and nearly 3000 inspections, along with the excellent training which we maintain thru continuing education as that is required by our certifying organizations, (InterNACHI, the worlds largest home inspection certifying agency, Pennsylvania Septage Management Association/PSMA, the states ONLY septic inspection certifying organization, The Department of Environmental Protection for our Wood Destroying Organism License and Department of Radiation Management for our Radon testing) that will assure you of the quality you will receive.   Add to that our  attention to detail, that has been developed throughout a lifetime careers as well as our inspection career, and the top notch customer service, and you will find you have not only hired a dedicated company that is committed to you, the customer, but people that are able to communicate the situation and status of your property in a way that you don’t have to be an engineer or construction contractor to understand.

Finally, it’s YOUR purchase. You are ENCOURAGED to attend the inspection. Customers can be with inspectors for all parts of the inspection that are SAFE for them to participate in, and explanations can be presented as we go.  We look forward to assisting you with this important transaction.
