EMMA from Calgary

Rick was introduced to us through a friend who wanted him to be his inspector but couldn’t since Rick was fully booked at that time. We feel so lucky to have worked with Rick! He works independently, avoiding any influence from any realtors. He came a couple of minutes earlier to start from house surrounding. Then he climbed the roof. He checked through every corner of the house. Meanwhile, Rick is so skilled and he scared us, my husband and me. He is really PICKY! He checked totally 3 houses for us until we found the good 3rd one. The first house on which we had an offer had a crack on the foundation wall from basement window down to the basement floor. One month later was the 2nd house but it didn’t work out either, because the suite bathroom leaked and also the hallway bathroom showed leakage stains. From then on, based on what we learned from the home inspections by Rick, we carefully checked through the houses before making an offer, and finally we found a good one! And the inspection confirmed it that the 3rd house is worth to buy! And we didn’t regret at all not taking the previous two houses. We used to be scared of Rick but we appreciate so much his help! From Rick we learned a lot, for example, how to deal with negative grading, what is Poly B, how a deck should be built, what is the recommended hot water temperature for safety if you have kids, etc. His report is informative and very clear to read with all the photos to show and explain. IN a word, we surely recommend our friends to book Rick to be their home inspector!!
