Home Inspection

We were concerned about the whole Home Inspection process as this was our first house, and we were unsure of who to go to. I found Brent on Homestars, it turned out our realtor also had used him before and had good things to say about him and his sevice. So we decided to go with him, and we were extremely happy with his service. He took the time explain all the work that needed to be done, and he was able to also point out some faulty electrical work that was done that enabled us to go back to negotiate a better deal on our house. I have already recommended Brent and Classic Home to our friends.

Thank you so much Khobie for the kind words and review! I really appreciate it! Yes, I know your realtor very well, but you probably did the wise thing by also doing a little homework and looking elsewhere for your inspector. Homestars is certainly a good starting place. I'm glad that you found the inspection to be helpful when making the decision on making the purchase. All the best, and please contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever. Thanks again and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

Brent is probably one of the most thorough home inspectors around. He went through the house in much detail, and was willing to explain things to us throughout the entire inspection. He answered all our questions objectively and made practical suggestions to improve on any of the house's shortcomings. We highly recommend Brent --- it is no wonder that Classic Home Inspections gets the rave reviews it gets!

Home inspection

We had conditionally bought an older bungalow and i had found brent on homestars, he was able to come out the next day. When he arrived he started by touring around the outside of the house and foubd some minor issues but things that are easy fixes. He did an extremely thurough inspection. When finding issues, he explained the serioussness of them and in the end outlined what has to be done now vs something that can be taken care of later on. He made both my wife and myself feel very comfortable about purchasing our new house. We would recomend him to any of our friends looking to buy.

Home Inspection

I was looking for an honest opinion on our house before we renovate or put it on the market. I shopped around and asked for quotes from different home inspectors, some of the 'best rated' were ridiculously overpriced and asked for extra money to perform services they considered 'additional'. Brent provided a full inspection and his pricing was very reasonable. He's VERY helpful, and very informative. He will take the time to sit with you and address any concerns you might have. When I purchase a home, I'll be calling him again. I would recommend him to anyone who's looking for a good home inspector.

Thank you so much Tania! I really appreciate the review! First off Tania, I never like to bad mouth my competition, but that one competitor you are talking about has always been very controversial with his reviews since the day he jumped on board with Homestars. Which wasn't that long ago. Anyways, I'm glad you were able to see right through it. All the best with sale of your home and in looking for a new one! Always please feel free to contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever! Thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

Not only was Brent informative, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful, he delivered all that was promised and more. I've had two home inspections with Brent already and he will be my 100% go to guy for any home inpections and questions for the future as well. He is honest and on time, which highly influenced by buying choices! Great work.

Aw thanks so much Michelle! I really appreciate you taking the time and leaving me a review! I am so glad that you were happy with the inspection. I remember the first home we looked at, there was a part of me that was thinking, "this home is not for them"... the second one, "yes, this home is much better". Enjoy the home, all the best, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Love these guys! They're not what you would expect. They're super friendly, knowledgeable and very patient. It felt like Mike Holmes was performing my home inspection, except Brent and Elie are better! Plus their prices are very reasonable. I would definitely call them again!

Pre-purchase home inspection

We were going into a bidding war and wanted the reassurance of a home inspection given the current owners decided against one. Brent was the first company I called given the reviews on here. He had a cancellation and was able to come the next morning! Brent arrived on time and was incredibly thorough. He took his time going through everything and at the end, sat down and walked me through his findings. He provided a well-organized binder with his notes and additional information for homeowners and also emailed me access to over 65 photos he took of the property. Highly recommended.

Thank you so much Matt for taking the time and leaving me a review! I really appreciate it! Those type of inspections can be tricky to schedule but we were able to do it! It seems insane this is how many people have to make an offer, sending me in before they even make the offer because of the market being so crazy. Well, you're not the first to hire me like this. I'm sure there is a beautiful home out there for you, just have patience! Thanks again Matt, all the best with your search, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

This is the 2nd home inspection that Brent did for us. His first very fair review saved us from making a costly mistake in purchase.

As usual his inspection was very thorough and he is honest but very fair. He will not say 'Do/don't buy this house.' Instead, he will tell you the issues he sees and let you make the educated decision on your own on what you'd like to do.

One fantastic thing about Brent is that you can email him any time and he will get back to you. 2 1/2 months after our inspection and before our closing I took some pictures and emailed them to Brent and he promptly answered and gave great insight. I'm sure I can email him in a year and he'd still respond and still welcome questions.

Highly recommend and so far his inspection has been accurate. Thanks again, Brent!

What could this company do to improve their services?
Nothing that I can think of.
Any advice to offer fellow homeowners facing a similar project?
With any person you hire, check their credentials (on here, forums, BBB) and call more than one person.

Wow Duane! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a review! I really appreciate it! Second time a charm for you! I remember the first home we looked at. It was nice but had its issues. I remember how the homeowner was so mad when you opted out of the deal; he all of a sudden starts accusing me of breaking things around his home. This one seemed so much better and was a much better fit for you guys. I'm sure that you will enjoy this home much more. All the best, and yes please contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever! Thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!!!

Home Inspection

Brent was professional and personable as he assisted us in the inspection of a 24 year old home. He was detailed and thorough in ensuring that everything was checked out - even the pool in the middle of winter! He took plenty of pictures to support his report and we would gladly use him again and refer him to our friends and family.
