Testimonials
Rod inspected our 110 year old house and he was fantastic! He was very thorough and explained everything as he went along. He is very personable and answered all of our questions. During this time of Covid-19 he made the experience easy and he was respectful of having to wear a mask at all times. Thanks for such a great experience.

Rod,
Once again you identified key items that were not functioning or could be potentially significant problems. This allowed us to go back and negotiate getting them fixed or financed before closing on the property. Thanks for the great work. You are also very easy to work with, willing to fit us in at short notice and prompt with reports.

Rod was the perfect choice to execute our home inspection. Communication via email was simple and concise, and he made himself available for a time which suited us best.
Rod was punctual on arrival, and gave extensive care to viewing all aspects of the home and making observations on not only build quality and necessary improvements, but anecdotal background on what else we could expect from a home built in that time period.
The home inspection report was produced within hours of completing the on-site visit, and it was both thorough and clearly documented.

This is the third home Rod has inspected for us. He is pleasant, friendly and I completely trust his judgment. He was in no hurry to be done. Whenever he identified an issue he would show me the problem and potential solutions. Even when he was done he sat down with us and gave us an overall summary explaining each issue he had identified. Since we were concerned about how much it would all cost, he gave us rough ideas of how much work is involved. Now that he has done the inspection and identified what we are getting into, I have a nice list to work with using the level of urgency he suggested for each task. Thank you Rod.
- N.N., waterloo ON, February 2016
Great services, Rod really knew his stuff. We did not ending buying the house because of this recommendations. He saved us literally tens of thousands of dollars in cost we would have discovered if we did not do a home inspection. Worth every penny. Gerry
- M.O., January 2016
"Dr. Rod" was fantastic. My husband and I are first time home buyers so I brought along my mother-in-law and our real estate agent(s) for wisdom and support. Rod did a thorough scan of the house and then walked us through the areas of comments and concerns. I was worried I would forget things and was full of anxiety but Rod was great in explaining things in a way I could understand (My background is Legal Research...I know next to nothing about recognizing building issues) and he had a 29 page detailed report (with pictures) up within the same business day for us to review. His rates were very fair and I would definitely recommend him and/or use his services again. (And off the record - Rod also isn't hard on the eyes). Great job.

- M.K., August 2015
Thanks for this thorough report.
One thing to note: basement #9. "This staining is an indication of moisture on the surface of the concrete."
The foundation is not concrete, it's stone.
The stone foundation flakes away of you wash as described. It's not mold, but mineral deposits from the stone. I will wipe and paint it white again.
Thanks

He was also very helpful with determining the condition of the wiring, because the home was retro-fitted. We trust him. And we value his report.
