"From the classic homes of Wayne and Clifton to the lake and mountain properties of West Milford and Ringwood — Frank Frasco brings 32 years of construction experience and a builder’s eye to every Passaic County inspection."
Passaic County is really two regions in one. Its southern half — Paterson, Clifton, Passaic, Wayne, Little Falls, Totowa, and Hawthorne — is densely built and historic, with early-1900s multi-family homes, classic colonials, and the mill-city heritage of the Great Falls. Its northern half — West Milford, Ringwood, Wanaque, Bloomingdale, and Pompton Lakes — is rural and wooded, part of the New Jersey Highlands, dotted with lake communities and well-and-septic homes. From two-family houses in Paterson to lakeside properties near Greenwood Lake, the county’s housing runs the full range. Frank Frasco Home Inspections LLC — owned and operated by Frank Frasco, a New Jersey Certified Real Estate Inspector (#24GI00157300) and InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector with 32 years of construction experience — inspects homes throughout Passaic County and all of Northern New Jersey.
Frank has inspected homes of every kind across Passaic County — from older multi-family and two-family houses in Paterson and Clifton, to suburban colonials in Wayne and Hawthorne, and lake and mountain homes in West Milford, Ringwood, and around Greenwood Lake. His 32 years in the construction trades give him a true builder’s eye, and every inspection follows the InterNACHI Standards of Practice and the standards of the State of New Jersey. Frank handles each inspection personally, so you always get his full experience on your home.
Buying or selling in Passaic County comes with regional challenges worth an experienced inspector’s attention. The county’s older urban housing in Paterson, Clifton, and Passaic often carries knob-and-tube wiring, aging plumbing, and multi-family complexities, while the rural Highlands north — West Milford and Ringwood — brings elevated radon potential, private wells and septic, and buried oil tanks on older properties. Flooding is a real concern in parts of the county, with the Passaic River and its tributaries affecting Pompton Lakes, Wayne, Little Falls, and Lincoln Park after heavy storms. Converted lake cottages, mature roofs, and dated systems round out the list of things Frank checks closely.
That’s exactly why Passaic County homeowners and agents choose Frank Frasco. You get a New Jersey Certified Real Estate Inspector (#24GI00157300) and InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector with a builder’s background, a clear and detailed report with photos delivered within 24 hours, radon testing and underground oil tank scans available right alongside your inspection, and an inspector who personally walks the home with you and answers your questions.

"Frank performed our home inspection this morning at the home we are purchasing in Randolph. He was friendly, helpful, and thorough. He walked with us through the entire house, explaining things that aren't necessarily immediate issues, but may need to be replaced. He pointed out issues that would need immediate fixing. His honesty and helpfulness were genuine. He was an excellent help and did a great job. Would recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent home inspector!"
"Frank did an outstanding job with the home inspection we requested. He was referred by a friend, and we couldn't be happier with the inspection & report we received. He was very thorough when inspecting the property. He answered any questions we had during the inspection & days after when we reached out. The report was detailed and precise, and we had it within a day! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get a home inspection."
