Haystack Home Inspections

Lance, It was great juggling the two inspections for you and your father in Delta. It made for a long and pleasurable day. It’s nice to hear you enjoyed the report and all the work that goes into it. Client care is really a top priority at Haystack Home Inspections. A prime motivator of starting the company was to help people; getting paid for it is a definite bonus. When it comes time I am here for more of your questions. Thanks again. Sincerely, Chris Thompson.

Hello Lloyd, Real estate in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland is happening really fast these days. At Haystack Home Inspections we understand and try to respond to our clients’ needs. A quick turn around on an inspection or report is sometimes what’s required. That said quality is our top priority. A quick inspection is worthless if the quality of the inspection is compromised. It is always important to keep the primary need of our clients in focus. I am glad to hear you will be calling us for your next home inspection because really that is the highest compliment a client can give, happy hunting. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Jeff, Unfortunately a fresh coat of paint can hide many sins. As a home inspector it is our job to try and see past the façade and determine the true condition of a place. Often times there are other clues that may lead us to conclusions of whether a fresh coat of paint is simply good maintenance or used to deceive. In your case we were lucky enough to have a sister building undergoing a major renovation because of an exterior cladding issue. While not conclusive these kinds are clues definitely help in making the decision that you are comfortable with. Thanks for trusting your condo inspection to us. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Joe, Thanks so much for taking the time to write your review. It’s too bad your targeted house was not to be. So often timing is important in real estate transactions. Haystack Home Inspections is very aware of this and work hard to meet your needs. When you’re ready to try again I’ll be more than glad to help. Sincerely, Chris

Hi Bessie, All our clients are appreciated and cared for, referrals from past clients are that much more rewarding. It says Haystack Home Inspections did something right the first time. When that client uses us on multiple inspections it re-confirms this. So thanks for vote of confidence and we look forward to helping your friends and family. May joy, peace, and good fortune find room in your new North Vancouver town home! Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Steve, Focusing on you and what you are having inspected is a must. Too many people call only worried about price. While our prices are quite reasonable I always wonder if people go to the cheapest doctor, dentist, or lawyer. Price has very little to do with a home inspection it is all about the quality of the person performing the inspection and if they care more about you then the paycheque they are collecting at the end of the inspection. Going above and beyond when opportunities present themselves are part of the service at Haystack Home Inspections. We were happy to help with your Vancouver condo inspection and look forward to helping you again when you find something more appropriate. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hello Suna, I would highly recommend you as a client, thanks for your kind words. Communication is an important part of any inspection. It starts with the first call, to the inspection, report, and any further conversations. That you love our graphic report is very rewarding as much time was spent developing a system that could convey a lot of information simply and effectively. I hope you enjoy your Vancouver condominium. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

James, At Haystack Home Inspections we realize that not everyone is a builder and technical words while impressive do little to help most people understand the condition of their home or condominium. I enjoyed helping with New Westminster condo inspection. If you have any questions in the future please call. Sincerely, Chris Thompson
