Chris was friendly and through.
He helped us make the decision not to buy a condo which was very nicely renovated but whose building had maintenance concerns we anticipated would be too troublesome.

I had 2 home inspections at 2 different properties.
Chris is very thorough. He puts together an amazing package for you to review. He is super personable and I completely got my monies worth!!

Chris did a good job and answered many of my questions. I am happy with his service and would recommend him for anyone looking for a house inspection. Happy holiday.

Chris did an exceptional job on inspecting the home we wished to purchase. He was extremely knowledgeable and very thorough. After completing his inspection, he walked us through identifying all strengths and possible issues, explaining the difference between the major and minor issues. After sending us his report, Chris followed up with a courtesy call a couple days later to see if we had any questions about the report. He went above and beyond our expectations. He was extremely professional and we would definitely recommend him to anyone in search of a trusted home inspector. Thanks again Chris for giving us the confidence to move forward with our home purchase.

Chris was an exceptional, trusted partner in our house buying experience. He was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Before the inspection started he gave us an overview of the types of items he'd be focusing on for a home of our style and ages. Onsite he covered all those areas and more. He left us with a very detailed report with photos and assessments. We felt extremely confident that we knew exactly what we were buying.

Chris did an amazing job, in assessing our 4-year old duplex in North Vancouver. He was prompt, and thorough. He prepared a great report, and walked us through the strengths and limitations of the duplex that he identified. He explained things well, and clearly identified the difference between big and small issues. We would highly recommend his services.

Hi Chris
I just had to charge on-line to give you the best review possible. I went through our new home twice before you were called in for a home inspection. Your two Red Light signals made me hesitate for sure. The first one, i had the seller remedy. The second, i was appreciative of, the after the fact phone call to discuss in depth from many points of view how best to deal with the issue. Your advice was invaluable. Thanks for helping. Alex Andrews

I would like to say thank you to Chris for providing us a great quick and thorough information about our new place. Highly recomended for your next home inspections. Great work ..

Chris conducted a thorough inspection of the new home we wished to purchase. As he worked, he took the time to explain the issues he was finding and answered our questions. He noticed a number of things that we would have missed. Even though this was a new home, I’m glad we contracted with Haystack to inspect the house. Chris provided us with an immediate list of deficiencies and sent a full typed report with photos the next morning. The report was very helpful when we met with the developer the next day to review deficiencies.

Unlike some of the reviewers here who relied on their realtor's recommendation to hire a home inspection company, I decided this time to find one myself. I have contacted half a dozen inspectors including two I have used in the past. During our initial conversation Chris of Haystack Home Inspections stood out from the rest thanks to his friendly telephone manner, professional knowledge, and readiness to accomodate our time frame and certain specific requirements. On the day of inspection Chris gave me a brief yet comprehensive summary of his most important findings and later the same night sent me a clear detailed report with a lot of pictures taken in the process of inspection to illustrate the text. Unlike the other inspectors I hired in the past, Chris then followed up with me to see if there are any items in his report requiring further clarification or explanation. Haystack's price was not in the lower part of price range among other quotes I received (albeit frankly the prices did not vary too much) , I do not regret spending a little extra money considering a lot of extra value received. Recommend wholeheartedly.
