About House Detectives of New York

Meet Home Inspector Tim Gill

Home inspector Tim Gill started by assisting family and friends with buying homes during his years as a building contractor. They trusted him because of his experience designing and building his own house. Helping others made him realize how much he enjoyed the process. When he showed a Boy Scout troop how he was turning a 1939 cottage into a brand-new colonial, he realized teaching was a passion.

He earned his certifications and opened House Detectives of New York, Inc., in 2001. As a Long Island home inspector, Tim Gill is well-respected in Suffolk and Nassau Counties. His stellar reputation is based on more than 8,000 home inspections. Now his procedures exceed the standards set by:

• New York State
