About us

Modern Home Inspections (MHI) is a Burlington, CT home inspection company serving homebuyers, sellers and real estate agents across Connecticut . Alongside our home inspections, we offer radon, water, sewer scope, chimney and other add-on services so clients get a complete picture of the home they're buying.

The role

The Ancillary Services Technician is the field and logistics backbone of our add-on inspection services. You'll run our radon equipment inventory, coordinate appointments with agents and clients, and perform radon, water, sewer and chimney inspections on your own.
