Home Inspection

I purchased an old detached house in Scarborough. Before the inspection, I was anxious about those hidden issues that are commonly existed in old houses such as mold or water leakage.
Brent was extremely thorough on his inspection and gave me a lot of useful suggestions. He even told me how to prioritize my renovation to do list. He is very knowledgeable and detail oriented on pointing out several minor repairs.
I feel very safe to waive the condition after Brent’s inspection. This is the second time we hire Brent.
I will highly recommend Brent to my family and friends.

Brent was very easy going, receptive to our questions, and extremely thorough in the home inspection. He had some great suggestions for maintaining elements of the home that came up in the inspection. I would definitely recommend his services to friends and family.

Brent really did a decent job for my new home closing. Provided a list of things to look out for during PDI, point outs the things I would never be able to catch by myself. Good job!

Home Inspection

We received Brent's referral from another friend of ours who had just purchased a home. Brent was prompt and on time, and took care explaining to my husband throughout the inspection all the things to look out or needed to be replaced in the next 3-5 years. He also went up to the roof and attic which we hear not a lot of inspectors do in the winter time. Brent found something in the attic which we took back to the previous owners, and we were grateful for his expertise and patience.

Home Inspection

Brent did a great and thorough job with the inspection and it was entirely accurate as 5 months afterwards, we're in this house with no surprises in terms of things that need to be fixed. He helped us make an informed decision on whether we should buy the place and also provided suggestions in terms of rough estimates on the things that needed to be fixed and how much those things would cost. His report was thorough as well. I highly recommend Brent if you need a home inspection.

Thank you so much Nick for taking the time and leaving me feedback! I really appreciate it! I’m glad that you were happy with the inspection. I'm also glad that you took the time to write a review 5 months after you've moved in telling me (and the reader) that everything is a-okay. If you ever have any questions whatsoever, always please feel free to contact me. Thanks again and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home inspection

I never had a great experience with home inspector in the past however Brent changed the perception on the inspectors for me. He is careful, thorough, honest and friendly. He takes his time to check the house like if it was his. I would not hesitate a second to hire him as an inspector again.

Thank you so much for the kind words and for taking the time to leave me a review Leo! You don't know how much I appreciate it! That's too bad to hear that you've had bad experiences with home inspectors. You're not the first person to tell me this. It's just like any other industry though, good and bad inspectors. I will admit, I do personally find my industry does have its fair share of questionable inspectors out there. Some of the stuff people tell me with what their previous inspector missed and I'm like, “yikes”, and I'm speechless. Many inspectors do love to play the "lame excuse as to why they didn't inspect that" card. Nonetheless, I am glad that you were happy with me! Thanks again, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

I hired Brent to do a home inspection on a newly built townhouse, and I am extremely happy with the service he provided. He found several issues that we would have never noticed ourselves, or would have never known that we can ask the builder to change. He was very knowledgeable and professional, and seemed very honest. Since moving into a newly built house, I realized that 'new' doesn't mean 'perfect', by a long stretch. Brent's inspection did wonders to lift our anxieties. He didn't just show us the areas that will need to be fixed (not too many thank goodness!), but also helped us understand what is normal and what we can reasonably demand from the builder (i.e. how not to get bullied!). His service is worth every penny!

Thank you so much Hanna for the kind words and for taking the time to leave me a review! Ah ha, to get an inspection on the new home, that is the question! I think most people hire me when they have a new home just for the reassuring that the home is okay. Yes, in so many cases it is. However, with homes being built the way that they are nowadays you just wouldn’t believe the things I will find. I remember going into a newly built home last week and some of the water waste lines were not even connected. They just emptied in the basement. Good work guys! Thank you so much Hanna, thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Pre-Bid Home Inspection

First of all, Brent is a professional. He answers his own phone. He is polite. He is honest. He is prompt. He is very knowledgeable. He gets right to work. And he genuinely wants you to be satisfied with his work.

My wife and I needed a house inspection performed to reassure ourselves before we put an offer on our recent house purchase. Brent came to the house, went up on the roof (!), into the attic tested all plumbing, electrical outlets and went all over the house. Not only did he perform a thorough inspection, but reviewed his findings, gave us the report/booklet on his findings PLUS gave us the 80 pictures that he took. He gave us some great advice how to address some minor improvements in insulation and other reno tips.

My wife and I would highly recommend Brent to anyone who needs peace of mind before they put an offer on a house. There is no need to spend twice as much for half of the service. Brent is the real deal. Thanks Homestars!

Thank you so much for the kind words Kent! Thank you for taking the time to leave me a review! I really appreciate it! That's too bad about the home. I'm glad you were happy with my inspection though. Most people do find the pictures helpful, esp. if they are negotiating. The pictures tell the story. Well all the best for now and good luck with your search! Thanks for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

I found Brent from Home Stars. He is very patient and helpful. He answered all my 'weird' questions and also explained all the important stuff that you need know about your future home. After the home inspections, I still turned to Brent a few times and he is always very glad to help.
