This man saved us from two frightful disasters. Period.
We have recently moved to Calgary from Ottawa and hired James to assist us in inspecting not one, but three homes which we conditionally purchased during our house hunting process. James's manner is very frank and forthright - and he works expertly to cover every inch of your prospective new home. He explains building codes in a very clear manner and is able to assess quickly what idiosyncrasies are 'typical' and which ones mean trouble. James's inspection reports are similarly very clearly laid out with plenty of photos illustrating what needs fixing which is essential for communicating back to the seller exactly what the issues may have arisen. Not only this, but James's reports are delivered within hours of the inspection so you are able to get (and keep) your purchase on track. Not only were James's inspections fantastic, but his up beat personality and accessibility were remarkable. James does not leave you high and dry once the inspection is finished, he answered many questions for us on his own time and was always available to weigh in on questions which we weren't sure how to answer. Thanks to James, we (finally) found the right home, which, and you quite literally, saved us thousands of dollars in what would have been hidden disastrous repairs down the line (think mold and rotting window panes - just to start). In short, after 3 home inspections with James, we can't recommend him enough. He really sets the standard, and you can feel confident knowing that if James gives your home his seal of approval that the house is definitely worth buying!
