Home Inspection

Brent came out to help us with our first home inspection on a rental property in Hamilton. He was professional and personable and had great advice for us, not only on our home inspection but for our renovations and first move into landlording! I would recommend Brent to anyone looking for a thorough and helpful home inspection in the GTA!

Home Inspection

What do you get with a home inspection from Brent? Everything! Brent took the time to analyze and photograph every square inch of the house and prompted me for questions throughout the process. I have close friends that are in the home inspection game, but Brent and Classic Home Inspections will be my team moving forwards. Brent's diligence, despite the homeowner being present and somewhat hostile revealed a huge health and safety concern prior to purchase: it was something that might have been easily missed by other inspectors, and would have definitely been missed by myself. My experience with Brent was an honest, diligent, highly professional one that I would not hesitate to recommend to all.

Thank you so much Michael for taking the time and leaving me a review! I am so glad that you were happy with the inspection. It means a lot to me. Boy, nothing sure beats a little hostile environment added to a dull home inspection! I have no idea what that persons problem was. That's okay, you got her back when your agent told her the roof needed replacing and there was a bunch of mold in the attic that she was now going to have to deal with. If you ever have any questions whatsoever always please feel free to contact me! Enjoy your home!!! Thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspection!

Home Inspection

#1...why?
1. Found vermiculite insulation (some contain asbestos) UNDER other insulation in the attic. That alone was worth the money we spent.
2. Was very thorough.
3. Down to earth, straight up and to the point.
4. On time (got there before we did!).
5. All around impressed with his excellent service.

Thank you so much for the kind words and review guys! I really appreciate you taking the time to leave it for me. Wasn't that the house were the listing agent knew it was there and when it was brought to his attention he mentioned that it had already been tested for asbestos and came back negitive? Then when you asked to see the lab report no one could produce it? So as it turns out it did contain asbestos! Good thing you didn't listen to him. 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

Classic Home Inspections Inc. made our first home purchase an experience to remember. We had to reschedule with Brent and he was able to accommodate. Even before walking onto the property Brent noticed chimney issues - he took the time to go on the roof to inspection (even in the middle of winter!) Well worth the time and price getting a home inspection done. We were able to save on our purchase price (which is always a plus.) We will recommend Classic Home Inspections Inc. and Brent to our family and friends for all future home buying and pre-home sales.

Home Inspection

Brent did a very thorough inspection of the 25 year old home we bought.  He is extremely pleasant to deal with.  He took his time looking at everything in the house, inside and out.  He climbed up on the roof and took his time checking it out, despite being a very cold winter day.  He spent at least 15 minutes in the attic.  He detailed any issues to us, explained how serious they were, and made many suggestions on how to remedy these issues.  We would definitely use Brent again and would highly recommend him for home inspections.

home inspection

I recently had my home inspection done by Brent and I'm glad I called him for the job. I was actually very skeptical at first about this home inspection thing and even considered opting out of it at one time, but decided to give it a try after reading many positive reviews about him on this website. Brent was very knowledgeable and walked through every inch of the house, noticing a few things that I wouldn't have noticed on my own, gave me tips on dealing with those issues. He also checked all appliances and paid special attention to any signs of water leaks. In the process, I learnd quite a few things from him and feel more confident about my new house as a result. All in all, it was a very positive experience for me and I'd say it was definitely worth it for me. Thank you Brent!

Thank you so much Seung! Thank you for the kind words. You know what Seung? You are bang on for being "very skeptical" about this whole home inspection thing. I find many home inspectors to be very questionable. I can honestly look a person in the eye and say that all of my reviews on Homestars are from "real customers"...where I'm not so sure every inspector on Homestars can. I've been doing inspections for 10 years and I've been on Homestars for 7 years and it's taken a lot to earn people trust. I am glad that I have earned yours. Always please feel free to contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever about the home. Thank you so much Seung, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

I recently had Brent (for the 3rd time over the past 5 yrs) do an inspection-as always, he was punctual/professional/thorough and his friendly, helpful manner took the stress out of dealing with all the details. I would definitely recommend Brent/his Firm & use him again if the occasion arises. Karen/Scarborough

Thank you so much Karen! We have looked at a few together haven't we! I can't believe that last home that we did, why were the homeowners trying to cover up a major issue like that? That was going to be a big time repair job. I really hope that the next potential buyer hires a inspector as well. I can only imagine what that is going to cost somebody. Oh well, it won't be you! Thanks agian Karen, thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

I have had Brent inspect two houses for me now (the first one not working out), and he is excellent at what he does. He is thorough, detailed, and honest, which is exactly what I wanted in a home inspector.

He took the time to show me everything that he was looking at and explaining it in a way that I (as a layman) could understand. He made sure I was comfortable with what I was seeing before leaving a room and was always prompting me to ask questions as we went through the house.

I will be recommending Brent to anyone I know who is looking for a good home inspector in the GTA.

Thanks again Brent. You saved me from a bad house deal in the frist place, and helped me find a great home for my family this time around.

I look forward to working with you in the future.

Well Patrick, I think you've found a gem with this home. Yes, a home that had some issues, but just your typical stuff really. It will be quite some time before I forget about the first home you hired me for, talk about shady realtors, shady home inspectors who were lying about mold that they missed on the pre-listing inspection, overall that was just going down the wrong road. I'm sure you're going to enjoy this one. Always please feel free to contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever. Thanks again, thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Not only was Brent early for the appointment he was very detailed when doing the inspection and explaining the final report to me, he also e-mailed me the pictures right away. I would highly recommend using Classic Home Inspections!
