I too recommend Brent...

This was our first experience buying a home in country side with its own sewer and well system and Brent did an amazing job with the inspection..Though it was away from the city, he turned out at the promised date and time and did a thorough job..At first I was skeptical to select someone based on a review in Homestars.com but now I'm glad I did that..He turned out to be exactly the same person as described :-) squeezing into every little corners, attic, crawl space and doing a thorough job..call him and you wont feel disappointed!

Thank you so much Bernie for the kind words and review! I told you that I was going to go through every square inch of the home. It's funny, it's like people don't expect me to such a though job. With what people are paying for their homes these days, you gotta know everything about it! Bernie if you ever have any questions about the home, always please feel free to contact me! Thanks again Bernie, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home inspection

Brent arrived early and got right to work.

Open to all of our questions and sent photos that very day.

Advised what items had normal wear and tear and when they would need to be repaired [realistic time not manufacture guidline].

Thanks Brent.

Thank you so much for the kind words and review! You know, I try to be as practical as possible. I don't downplay things but I am very realistic. I think this is why people like to use my services. If people are expecting me to be like the big guy on TV that runs around fixing everything with a wrecking ball and a bulldozer, I tell them that's TV, that's not me. Yes, I will sometimes tell people things I know they don't want to hear, but hey, I've got to be honest with you! In the end, that’s what you’re paying me for. Again, please feel free to contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever about the home. Thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

Brent did a very thorough inspection for your new home. We need to have someone inspect our place in 2 days and we were fortunate to have Brent do our inspection at such short notice. He explained everything in great detail and took us to each part of the house to show us his findings. At the end, he summarized everything again and provided a detailed report. We are first time home buyers and home inspection is critical for us and Brent just did an excellent job showing us what we need to do in a few years. It was peace of mind.

Home Inspection

We had Brent out to help us with a townhouse inspection back in November of 2011. Brent arrived early and immediately started examining the exterior of the house. He was very friendly, answered any questions we had, and didn't mind my dad tagging along for part of the inspection asking a bunch of questions. Though the house inspection was fairly uneventful, we both felt that Brent knew exactly what he was doing and would find any problems if there were any. A very detailed and thorough report was provided to us after. We will definitely be using him in the future and would recommend him to friends and family!

Thank you so much Lauren for the kind words and for taking the time to leave a review! I really appreciate it! No I did not mind your dad "tagging" along! I actually prefer it when people do! He was very easy going! Heck, sometimes I show up to an inspection and the father is there as if I'm picking up his daughter as my prom date. But that okay, the parents only want the best for their kids! All seriousness, I do like it when someone is there that is well versed with a home. Please Lauren, if you ever have any questions about the home always please feel free to contact me! Thanks again, enjoy your new home, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

Found Brent / Classic Home Inspections on homestars through a quick Google search. Of course there was short notice and Brent came out the property on a Sunday Evening! He is a true professional in every sense of the word and did a great job of explaining everything and answering any questions. He did a very thorough job of inspecting all aspects and areas of the home including plumbing, electrical and structure. He provided his report at the end of his inspection and sent photos the same night! Although the home is only 7 years old and almost brand new, Brent found foundation problems that came up to several hundred dollars worth of repairs. We used his report to successfully get the seller to do the repairs. He responded in a timely manner, is well organized, on time and punctual. His pricing is very reasonable and service top notch. You really do get piece of mind with Brent, and it is not surprise why he’s at the top of the list. What can I say? Don’t mess with a Classic. Thanks Brent! I will definitely be using you again in the future.

Thank you so much Andrew for taking the time to leave a review! As well, the kind words. Hey, this home inspector works 7 days a week! Morning, noon, and night, I'm ready to go! Yes, the new homes can have their problems...like you wouldn't believe. Although this house had a few issues to be addressed, I've seen much bigger problems with much newer homes! Always please feel free to contact me if you ever have questions about the home. Thanks again Andrew, and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home Inspection

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

We hired Brent at Classic Home Inspections. In the inspection he found mold in the basement, went into the attic and informed us there was very little insulation, and showed us that new windows would be required. When he was up on the roof he noted that it would require some repairs. At the end he left us a report and sent us pictures of the property. Thanks.

Thank you so much M in Scarborough! I really appreciate the review! I very nice home indeed! Yes, it had its issues like all homes, however, nothing that can't be fixed. The windows are definitely a bummer. Even inexpensive ones are a lot of money. Fortunately not all of them require replacement. Always feel free to contact me if you ever have any questions whatsoever! Thanks again and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!

Home inspection

Brent recently did a pre-purchase inspection for our new home. We were extremely impressed with his professionalism, thoroughness, as well as his clear explanations of the issues he noted with the house. He was also very available for follow-up questions and answered emails and phone calls very promptly! We would not hesitate to recommend him, and I know our realtor will also be recommending him to his clients from now on. Thanks for the great job!

We had Brent do two inspections for us. We wanted to have our current home inspected before we listed it, just so there were no surprises for us or the new homebuyer. Then we had him inspect the home we just purchased. Both were done with such detail. Brent is so meticulous when he is inspecting. A friend had recommended him and told us he was good! He provided a fantastic report and supplied us many photos that we found to be very useful. Thanks Brent, we will definitely be recommending you to our friends and family.

Thank you Maria for the kind words and review! I really appreciate it! As I mentioned in previous reviews, many home sellers seem to be bringing me in to check out their home before putting it on the market. Not a bad idea really. In some cases I will even tell people how to fix the problem so it is not an issue when selling the home. So many things are such an easy fix it's just so much easier to show a person than to have someone come in and rip you off trying to make more money. Better yet, it's no longer an issue with the home. All the best with your new home! Thanks again and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!!!

Brent at Classic Home Inspections did what he said he was out to do, go through every single square inch of the home...and he delivered! On a newer Milton home, we were unsure to get an inspection, esp. with the pressure of other offers on the table. We insisted on the inspection, and are we glad that we did. Brent gave us the peace of mind that we were looking for. Thanks Brent, we will gladly recommend you to others with confidence.

Thank you so much Dave for the kind words and review! I really appreciate it! Hmm Milton. The town that was built overnight. Unfortunately many of the homes show it. As I was telling you, the first phase of the new homes were not really very good. However, the second and third phases are much better homes. Fortunately, yours falls into that category. A beautiful home indeed! If you ever have any questions whatsoever always please feel free to contact me! Thanks again and thank you for choosing Classic Home Inspections!
