Why Schmitt Engineering?

Schmitt Engineering boasts over 45 years of specialization in structural engineering , building and home inspections, with an impressive track record of conducting over 20,000 inspections for homes and commercial properties.

We are renowned as the most highly regarded home inspection consulting firm in the Long Island and New York Metropolitan area. 

Every home and building inspection is carried out exclusively by Licensed Professional Engineers or Registered Architects. 

Only Licensed Professional Engineers and Register Architects are qualified to assess structural and mechanical conditions in houses or buildings in New York State. Home inspectors do not hold this recognition from NYS for diagnosing structural issues. As licensed Engineers, our assessments are also accepted by FHA and HUD.

Our reports are comprehensive, narrative documents that precisely outline our findings in a clear and understandable manner. We also leverage digital photography to enhance and personalize each report. In contrast, other home inspection firms often provide a more generic and boilerplate check-sheet format, typically dictated by franchise organizations. (link to Reports)

Our allegiance is to you! While we maintain a solid reputation with the real estate community in New York, we understand that our primary duty is to our clients. Schmitt Engineering has no financial affiliations with real estate companies, including payments for advertising in exchange for referrals.

Choose the firm with the proven track record and the one firm that is called in by leading real estate professionals and real estate attorneys to protect their clients.
