Home Inspection in Whitby

I had the privilege of having my prospective new Whitby home inspected by Gordon. He was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Since it was the first time that I would be living independently in a house, Gordon took the time to explain everything to me in a way that I could understand. Gordon has given me the confidence as a home owner to know what to expect. He was open to answering all my questions and it was worth every penny.

Home Inspection

I was pleasantly surprised by Andy's expertise and the amount of attention he gives to each aspect of the inspection. He identified issues in areas of the home that could easily have been missed and provided some helpful suggestions when we asked. The overall experience has been professional, thorough, and has given me confidence that the inspection was the best that I could've gotten in Toronto. I would definitely recommend this company to all my friends. Thank you for the fantastic customer service and detailed report.

Home Inspection

The process of working with this company was very calm and relaxed, which was a saving grace during such a hectic time buying our first home. Walter came to inspect our home and was very informative, professional and helpful. I felt very taken care of, knowing he had our best interests at heart. It was a pleasure working with Carson-Dunlop from start to finish and I feel they helped us make a safe and educated decision about our purchase.

Buyers Home Inspection

I recently had a great experience with Carson Dunlop when they completed a buyers home inspection for me in Oshawa. I am really pleased with the experience from booking all the way to the report and even after the fact when I had a few questions for the inspector who called me back right away and answered everything for me. They are a great company and i will be recommending in the future.

home inspection

As new home owners we were really unsure of the house we were buying. We called Carson Dunlop because we were referred by a friend. The customer service people were amazing, super friendly and answered all our questions. Carl was our inspector he did a fantastic job. We brought my wife, small child and brother along and he took it all in stride. He was well spoken, informative and we even got our inspection report a few hours later! great experience overall!!

Home Inspection

Being new to the Toronto real estate market, my realtor suggested I use Carson Dunlop to inspect any homes I was interested in. I am so glad I did as their thorough inspections steered me clear of two lemons. I have now chosen my dream home and with Carson Dunlop's extensive report in hand, I feel confident I have made the right choice. The inspectors I worked with were both professional and took the time to answer all my questions. I feel that the money I spent on inspections has been saved many times over and would never consider buying a property without an inspection by Carson Dunlop. Thanks for the great service!
