Safe Homes Canada

It was a very good experience with Safe Homes. I will use them again and again.

Very professional and thorough. Andy took the time to inspect all aspects of the home, inside and out. He pointed out a number of items that I'm sure would've been easy for other Inspectors to ignore. Not all items identified were deal breakers on the purchase of the home, for example a misplaced water shutoff valve that although will work, will cause excessive delay waiting for the waterline to purge after shutoff. And then there were other good to know concerns in the event that we undertake renovations in the future.

Andy is personable and friendly. He is focused on making sure you are buying a safe home and have the information you need to purchase you home at a fair price.

Andy did my home inspection on my last home and I was happy to call him again for my latest house inspection. Andy is thorough and isnt afraid to get into small spaces or roof tops. He spends the time needed to get to know the space and keeps in contact once its all completed to make sure the homes deficiencies are looked after by trusted professionals.
Great experience, thank you

Im a realtor and new to the Simcoe area. I hired Andy to inspect a house that my parents were looking at purchasing. Even though the house was less than 2 years old, I know from my line of work that an inspection is always worth the cost. Andy came highly recommended. Now I know why. Andy is a rare breed of house inspector. Not only does he love what he does, but hes absolutely thorough and isnt afraid of getting dirty or crawling into tight spaces. For example, the insulation in the attic was measuring approx 18 inches by the opening, but Andy took the time to crawl in all the way to the rear and was able to see that the insulation was actually measuring only 14 to 11 inches throughout. Because this home is still under Tarion warranty, Andys discovery enabled us to put an amendment into the purchase agreement which ensured the builder topped up the insulation to meet code. This alone will save my parents a tonne of money in future heating costs. Most other inspectors I know would have taken the insulation measurements at the opening and called it a day. Not Andy! This is just one example of his dedication and quality of work. If youre reading reviews because youre looking for a home inspector, you can stop your search now because youve just found the best there is!

We recently had the pleasure of working with Andy for a home inspection on a century home. From start to finish, his expertise and attention to detail were outstanding.

Andy spent nearly six hours meticulously examining every nook and cranny of the 150 year old home. His commitment to a comprehensive inspection was evident, and it ultimately saved us from potential headaches down the road.

Not only did Andy identify existing issues, he but also provided practical solutions and recommendations. His knowledge of historic homes was invaluable.

Throughout the process Andy communicated open and honestly. He patiently answered my questions and ensured we understood the implications of each finding.

Thanks to Andys report, we discovered significant issues that would have been costly to us. while it meant walking away from the purchase, we are grateful for his diligence.

If you're looking for someone who goes above and beyond, he's your guy. Highly recommend.

Thanks Andy!

Andrew did a very thorough job with the home inspection. He identified a few deficiencies that we were able to get the builder to address. Highly recommended!

Our experience with Andy from Safe Homes Canada was amazing! We reached out to him for an inspection for our first home, and we felt we were in safe and honest hands from day 1. He spend nearly 4 hours with us in our home, inspecting every inch. He explained every single detail about our house with us, detailed any issues he thought may be concerning, and made us feel confident in our purchase. Additionally his written report was incredibly comprehensive, complete with photos of everything he referenced. He assured us we were making the correct purchase at the correct price. Andy has a great personality, we had wonderful conversations throughout the inspection and left feeling like we had made a friend, not just a business decision. We would, without a doubt, recommend him to anyone moving forward.

We had a very professional and comprehensive home inspection done by Andy at Safe Homes Canada. I am familiar with construction and home maintenance - but Andys depth of knowledge and attention to detail was greatly appreciated. The inspection allowed me to make a proper decision on a major real estate investment for my family. As well he provided a detailed list of general maintenance and improvement items (as one will find in any home purchase) that provided me with a template for future improvements to the property. He was honest with his findings, thorough in his inspection and accurate and detailed with his report. Highly recommend his services when making an investment in a newly constructed or re-sale home.

I was moved to the area by my employer, and they paid for this inspection. With time and market constraints, I wasn't able to see the house before putting in an offer. Andrew inspected the house with a family member present, and guided us through key points of the property over a video call on that family members phone. The inspection was very detailed, including going into confined spaces to check key areas that often go unseen. The inspection report was also extremely thorough and personalized to our needs, and included detailed photographs of every detail that was inspected. With Andrew's thorough inspection we were comfortable with closing on a property we had never seen, and still hadn't seen until the pre-close inspection. We are very happy with our home, and the services provided by Safe Homes Canada.
