The inspection went great. Rob was knowledgeable and very helpful. He put all my concerns into perspective so that I was able to make an informed decision. I am glad I picked HomeCore to do my inspection. We are very thankful that we chose HomeCore for our warranty inspection. Our inspector did an excellent job at answering all our questions. Rob was very thorough and helpful. We couldn't be more pleased with the inspection.
The inspection went extremely well. I was surprised and delighted that I would be given a binder with comprehensive notes and extensive support materials. He started by providing a comprehensive review of what he was going to do, and then he did just that. The level of detail was good, the thoroughness was appreciated, and the service impeccable. Rob was wonderful. Very thorough, professional, and easy to talk to. Rob was fantastic. He walked me through everything and answered all my questions, as well as giving me some great tips on things I need to consider when I move in. I have already referred him to 2 friends. Rob had done an excellent job with the inspection. He was really knowledgeable with homes and he was very patient in taking the time to explain and inspect everything. I would definitely refer rob to my friends and family. Great job! The inspection went very well, however, I did not purchase the home. Robert's opinion, explanation and report saved me from making a wrong decision of buying the property. I will surely recommend his services again and use it when I require with my next purchase. The home inspection went great. Rob answered all of our questions that we had and then gave information to things we didn't even think of. He was very informative. Definitely will recommend him to any of our friends that decide to buy. Rob was very informative and helpful in every aspect of the inspection. Since our family is not exactly the handy type, we really appreciated his advice on the basic maintenance of our house and the systems we have. Rob was fantastic. He was very knowledgeable and patient, taking the time to explain about the inner and outer workings of the house (which was great for me because I don't know much about home ownership). Sadly, I was not the lucky bidder which was mildly heartbreaking! Rob had done an excellent job with the inspection. He was really knowledgeable with homes and he was very patient in taking the time to explain and inspect everything. I would definitely refer rob to my friends and family. Great job! I
felt very confident with this inspection. The review and understanding
of the major services in the house are complicated and expensive items,
but they were explained clearly and thoroughly. We did not get the
house - it went WELL over asking. Rob
was extremely thorough and answered all my questions expertly. As
it turns out we did not put a bid in for the house. Robert, Rob
was very detailed with all his information and took the time to answer
all questions that he could answer. He is definitely one of the more
thorough inspectors that I have seen. I found Rob and the report he
provided extremely helpful. Rob pointed out some items that may have
been overlooked by other inspectors. As an example, there was a furnace
oil line that was buried under the pavement. Rob clearly indicated
that this should be inspected by a TSSA inspector and changes made
if required. As a result, the seller had to remove the line and replace
it with a new above-ground line so that it met code. Without this,
I would have purchased the home not knowing this was not meeting code
and potentially had an issue on my hands. His information and report
was excellent. Rob
was fantastic and did a thorough job. He definitely covered all the
bases and thanks to his expertise we are very confident we made a
great purchase. I will definitely recommend Rob and HomeCore to friends
and family. The
inspection and Rob were great! He is very professional - this guy
is very good! He answered all our questions with great insights. We
were very pleased by the service of your company. We should have more
house inspectors like your company. We
were VERY pleased with the level of service we received with our home
inspection. Rob was very thorough and took great care in explaining
the details to us. He gave us great tips for the future maintenance
and care of our home. I have already referred HomeCore to a friend
who is looking to buy a house! The
inspection went VERY well, exceeding all of our expectations. Rob
answered all of our questions very thoroughly in words we could understand.
We really appreciated Rob's extensive experience and sharing his past
observations as examples. We feel that the fee for the inspection
was well worth the value as we have gained understanding in how to
maintain our new home. We would definitely recommend Rob and HomeCore
to all of our family and friends looking for a home inspection (in
fact, Bonnie recommended HomeCore to her co-worker who is scheduled
for an inspection of her new home this weekend). The
inspection with Rob went fantastically! As first time home buyers,
this has been an exciting time for us but, simultaneously, very nerve-wracking.
Rob helped to settle our nerves about the house and explained everything
in language that we would understand. We
found the warranty inspection to be exceptional. Worth every penny!!!
Rob spent a lot of time going over all the ins and outs of what he
was inspecting and explaining certain functions of the home. We've
actually passed along Homecore's information as referrals to some
of our friends in the neighbourhood and around the GTA. Everyone looking
for a great home inspector and Rob fits the bill. The
inspection went quite fine. Rob’s thoroughness is exactly what we
were looking for and is the reason we chose to use his services again
(I initially used him ~5years ago while purchasing my current home). I
was thoroughly impressed and I thought the [inspection] was valuable.
Rob anticipated my questions and answered most of them before I even
had to ask. He took the time to explain things to me in terms I could
understand and, in my mind, went above and beyond by showing me some
basics around my condo. He provided his photos in a very timely fashion.
Overall, a more than valuable and also pleasant experience. Rob's
approach instills confidence and credibility, yet also makes a person
feel at ease. Rob
was extremely helpful for us. As first time home buyers there were
a lot of things that we didn't know to look for, or weren't aware
that we should be concerned with. He gave us a very technical overview
that helped us really grasp what we were doing. We were very pleased
with everything from the inspection itself, to the scrutinizing details
of the report. The book is great! Rob
answered our questions plus some! Rob was very thorough. While our
main concern was to hire an inspector for our 30day Tarion warranty,
Rob provided great advice on how to proceed with Tarion and how to
maintain our home overall for our own satisfaction. Rob was recommended
to us by a colleague of mine and we would definitely recommend him
to anyone. Rob
was very thorough in his presentation and with providing us as much
detail as he possibly could. We were very impressed with his knowledge
and his attention to detail. Rob
answered all our questions and was a true professional. The process
of selling and purchasing a new home is not an easy task. You quickly
learn to rely on people like Rob to assist. I really cannot say enough
about how honest and upfront Rob was in dealing with us. I really
appreciated it. Your assistance [Sheila] was unexpected but greatly
appreciated too! We
found all the inspection information provided relevant [for our warranty
inspection]. Also, the recommendations provided were very helpful.
Loved the binder and organizational techniques. You guys are doing
an awesome job. Thanks
again for doing my home inspection. I knew that Rob would be more
than thorough and he was. I also knew that he would look out for my
interests and take the time to explain things to me, which he of course
did. When Rob said it was a good place, I knew he was saying it from
a home inspection perspective as well as a personal perspective as
he knows me well. Just
to close the loop, Rob, my clients proceeded with the property today.
Funny story: when I told the agent about the knob and tube he said
they had [a well known company] inspect and they never found any so
there is no way there could be any. My words were polite and along
the lines of, “It’s possible they missed it just as it’s possible
my inspector misses something, but today he confirmed there was knob
and tube.” Well, the seller goes home and takes off the outlet covers
and sees that there is indeed knob and tube. His agent called me back
a few minutes ago and says, “My clients are ready to negotiate and
feel terrible about this situation - and are livid with their home
inspector.” I
would strongly recommend [a warranty inspection] to anyone that has
recently purchased a newly-built property. Rob is very knowledgeable
and experienced, and everything we could hope for from a home inspector.
We really appreciate a professional like him that takes genuine interest
in people's investment. We plan to pick up a couple of investment
properties in the next year or two, and we are definitely going to
use your service again. Please feel free to use us as your reference
(not that you guys need any!). Rob
was wonderful - professional and courteous. He took the time to go
through everything with me and explained things in a manner that I
could understand. He answered all my questions and I felt confident
going through with the purchase. I was very pleased with my HomeCore
experience. I
would like to say that Rob was great and took the time to explain
his thoughts in a matter that we, the homeowner, can understand. I
think your service is great and will 100% recommend your services
to others. Again I thought your service was grand. We
were very pleased with the whole process and Rob answered all questions
very thoroughly. I will add this is only the second time we have been
through the home inspection process, but this experience was hands
down much more detailed, descriptive / informative and overall more
professional than the first time. I would gladly refer you to anyone
looking for a home inspection. Rob
was great at going over all of my concerns and highlighting the areas
that need work. I like that he differentiated between what needs immediate
attention versus items to attend to as we go. Thank
Rob for us. His inspection was an important reason why we won the
bidding war. We had knowledge that others did not. The
[warranty] inspection that Rob did was great. He found things that
we never would have found on our own (which is why we hired him),
and he explained some of the things we should be looking for. The
great thing is the list he provided us, as well as the discussion
he had with us after he did the inspection. The binder he provided
us with is also very detailed, organized, and answers a lot of questions
that new homeowners like us have. We will definitely recommend Homecore
to all our family and friends. I
have to say Rob was absolutely terrific!! We left the house after
the inspection completely understanding the whole evaluation: the
process and the disclosure of his opinions. We will be contacting
you guys again should we buy as well as refer you guys to anyone we
know who is going through the same situation. Thank you so much. Rob
did a wonderful job with the inspection and answered all of our questions.
He was very thorough and after the inspection he emailed us pictures
to better explain what he had described to us. Overall, we had a great
experience with HomeCore! Rob
did a great job in answering all of our questions and concerns. The
inspection was thorough and very informative! It was a pleasure working
with your company and we will refer you to any of our friends that
are purchasing in the future. Spectacular
inspector. We greatly appreciate the extra tips that Rob provided. We
found the information provided to us by Rob to be extremely helpful.
He gave us a good idea of the state of the home and what needs to
be done, and clear explanation of issues/ramifications. Honestly… you
totally exceeded my expectations. I seriously don't know how you do
all this for only $483?? Easily worth $600 and I'll be passing your
name along... you can count on it. I wish everyone I had to pay for
anything was as meticulous as this. Robert
was excellent! Emily and I were more than pleased with the job he
performed. He was beyond thorough and answered many questions that
we had. He gave us excellent pointers to look out for when we move
in to our new house. He even got us back some money on the closing
price to repair a minor deficiency that he astutely found in the ventilation
system. We
were very happy with our home inspection and with Rob. He more than
covered our questions, he answered them before we even thought to
ask them. We especially liked the binder and how everything was organized
for us to look back on. Rob
certainly answered all of my questions and more. The electrical, structural
and plumbing explanations were well done and put my mind at ease.
I was very impressed with how thorough and conscientious he was! Rob
answered all of our questions and then some. The inspection was quite
informative, especially because we are from the US and inspections
there pale in comparison. Overall it was great! I will definitely
recommend your services to anyone who is buying a new home. I
wanted to thank you [Sheila] and Rob for all your help and assistance
with this home inspection. We were very pleased with the inspection;
Rob was incredibly detailed and thorough, and gave us many tips on
how to properly care for our home, such as the explanations of safety
features and which ones require the most attention. We are also very
pleased with the Home Inspection Report; it was incredibly detailed
and informative. The
inspection went well. Rob was great, he was very informative and explained
himself well. I am impressed with Rob’s knowledge of homes and
all of its components. He is very good at what he does and I will
definitely consider recommending him to my clients in the future.
Thank you for setting up the appointment so quickly and I hope to
continue doing business with you in the future. It
was such a pleasure working with Rob. He answered all questions I
had. He covered so much there was little for me to ask about. I am
still working my way through the book. It’s a wonderful resource!
I will probably have a few more questions for Rob - unless of course
I come upon the answers in my reading - but I especially want to talk
to him on the solar heating of the pool that he did so much research
on. The
home inspection was a great first time experience. Rob was very thorough
and explained as much as possible to help educate us as first time
condo buyers. As the condo has never been lived in, the inspection
was relatively quick and straight forward. Rob pointed out a few minor
areas of caution, but nothing too serious. We
really liked Rob. He has an easy and approachable manner. Most importantly,
he explained things in lay terms that were easy for us to understand
(without making it sound like he was talking “down” to
us). I liked the way that he explained all of the criteria for the
home inspection and the sections of the binder first before doing
the walk through of the house itself. I found it much easier to understand
his process. That, in turn, made it easier to understand the house – which
is the main thing. A
lot of [the decision to purchase the house] was based on Rob’s
House Inspection. He took the time to answer all of my questions along
with arousing questions that I did not even think about. Further to
that, he was able to help me understand some costs of things that
we will be performing on the house, e.g., re-shingling. Great job
on the House Inspection, I was overly impressed and will try to recommend
Rob when anyone I know going through this process. The
home inspection that Rob did for us was fantastic. Being first time
home buyers we weren’t even sure what questions we should be
asking. Rob was very knowledgeable and put our minds at ease right
from the start. He spoke on our level and was very patient with all
of our questions. We would definitely recommend him to any of our
friends. Rob
was amazing. Both myself and our real estate agent Ron were quite
impressed with Rob’s very thorough inspection. He also gave
us some great tips and advice for the repairs and maintenance of the
house. The
inspection went well and we were quite pleased. Rob seemed to be very
knowledgeable and appeared to complete a very in-depth review of the
home and its various components. He was most definitely able to answer
all of our questions and offered valuable advice about further information
we could try to obtain from the sellers. Overall, we are extremely
satisfied with the quality of service provided. The
inspection went very well. Rob was very good in explaining to us all
of his findings in detail and, when something needed some fixing-up,
what our options were and possible consequences of “ignoring” the
problem. He was very thorough and answered all of our questions. Hi
Rob, Everything
went very well with the home inspection. Rob answered all of our questions
and a whole lot more; we were so impressed with him and the whole
process. We learned quite a lot. Rob
was very detailed and thorough, and his report did make the purchase
of both houses much less stressful and more enjoyable. I appreciate
the fact that he answered many of our questions ranging from maintenance
issues to future renovations related issues, as well as some general
questions about building codes. I feel comfortable passing Rob’s
reference to anyone else that may require his services. First
of all, I’d like to say that Amanda and I were very pleased with our
home inspection. Rob provided us with a lot of useful information,
and answered all of the questions that we had. We are confident that
we have made a good choice with the help of your inspection. I
had a home inspection done by Rob and was very satisfied with the
end results. He answered all my questions, explained things to me
in a context which I could understand, and gave me tips on how to
maintain my home inside as well as outside. There
is no question that Rob is very knowledgeable and he took great care
to ensure that we understood what he was talking about. All questions
or concerns were addressed by Rob. Even so, Rob said that we could
call him if we had any more questions. Although I work in the construction
industry, I would not have been able to assess our home in such detail
as Rob did. There is definitely value in a home inspection and I would
recommend to others that they do an inspection as well. The
inspection went well, Rob was very informative and whatever questions
we had he was able to answer them. I did end up purchasing the house
and now, thanks to Rob, I know what needs to be done to make improvements
on the home. We
may sell houses and conduct home inspections, but we are both really
in the business of helping people. You've got a great service attitude
Sheila and Robert is one of the best home inspectors around. Always
my first recommendation for a purchaser’s home inspection. First,
let me just thank you, Sheila, for accommodating our home inspection
day so promptly. Everything went wonderfully; Rob answered all our
questions and then some. Thanks again to Rob for all his hard work. Rob
did a phenomenal job, which gave us the confidence in knowing we made
the right purchase decision. He was able to provide answers that had
not even occurred to us. He was thorough and very clear in his explanations.
We're very satisfied with the service we received. Rob
was very knowledgeable & did answer any questions we had (as well,
he knew the answers to questions we didn't even know we should ask).
We feel that it was a good decision to have a professional do the
PDI/warranty inspection and that we got value for our money. I
found Rob's inspection really thorough and very helpful. Especially
helpful was the inspection book he gave us. Not only does this help
to map out problems and issues with the house, but it also gives us
a map and a game plan for the future. Everything
was great and Rob was very thorough and explained everything in detail.
We were both very impressed with the depth of the inspection and are
purchasing the home with confidence that all of the work needed was
identified during the inspection. Rob
answered our questions, very thoroughly, detailed, and well explained
I might add. Our main concern was for the inspector to have the time
to do his aspect of the inspection and create an exhaustive report,
which is exactly what Rob did. Everything
went very well, better than we had expected. Rob answered all our
questions and more. He was very informative and detailed and providing
actual photos really helped explain things and verify with the builder. Firstly,
the inspection was the best 400 bucks we’ve spent in a long
time! I don’t normally write cheques that large while smiling! Truly
a pleasure meeting with you, and thank you for your patience and for
sharing your breadth of knowledge with me. I certainly learned much
in terms of important issues - and I feel more confident with the
sale of my house. Rob
was great… he answered all of our questions and even gave us
so many tips and information that we can use in the future. We think
that the warranty inspection was worth it and we are actually very
happy he didn't find very significant problems in our house and like
we told Rob, it gave us peace of mind finding that everything was
pretty much ok and that only a few things needed to get done and fixed. I
just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you again for the outstanding
service that you provided to John and I this morning. Normally a PDI
is a tense, anxious and sometimes exciting time for new homeowners.
You took the time to reassure us with the information and detail that
you provided. Additionally, you made us feel very comfortable to voice
our concerns and it was great to know that you were on our side! The
inspection ran extremely smoothly. Rob was very knowledgeable and
helpful with all his information. We will definitely refer him to
friends and family. First
I would like to say thanks for a wonderful home inspection experience.
It was our first home inspection and we did not know what to expect
from it. Rob did an excellent job inspecting our future house; it
went above and beyond our expectations. We learnt a lot about what
to expect with a house that age as well as the steps to take to maintain
it. Rob
was fantastic!! I love his approach and how he put everything into "layman" terms.
The binder will be a great reference to get a few items updated /
fixed in the near future. I would recommend Rob to family and friends
without hesitation. Rob's
report was extensive and as a result we took a long hard look at the
house and its shortcomings regarding the renovations. Some renovations
were not done to code and the vendor was unable to provide evidence
of any permits or inspections. We chose not to purchase the home.
We think Rob is an excellent inspector and will use him again as we
keep looking for the home for us. Our
inspection went very well. Rob was most informative & gave us
some very good info on the caring & maintaining a house... some
of which I'm sad to say didn't even occur to us even though we've
owned our current home for almost 20 years!!! Once again, we were
very pleased with the service we received from Rob and would not hesitate
to recommend your office to others. Rob
did a great job, he really explained everything thoroughly from any
actual issues right down to his methodology for the assessment. He
gave some helpful maintenance tips and we plan on using the binder
to help us keep on top of things at our new home. Dear
Rob, The
inspection was great. Rob was fantastic. Thanks for everything. Your
services were great and we will pass your info on to anyone else we
know who may need them. Thanks
for the advice and the tip for dealing with the fence. You are most
welcome for the referral! I recall doing a lot of research to find
you and, as you know, we were happy with your home inspection services.
The after sales follow-up is definitely appreciated as well. The
inspection went very well, as expected. Rob answered all our questions.
He is truly a professional individual. He inspected every detail that
we expected from a home inspection. A few individuals had mentioned
we do not need a home inspection, but it is peace of mind. Money well
spent. The
inspection went very well. Rob was informative and my son enjoyed
the experience with him. As a first time home buyer he was very both
excited and anxious to hear just how well the home had been maintained
in the past. Rob spoke with both Kyle and I in a way that we could
understand the needs and issues that may arise in the future. Overall
it was a great experience. Everything
went great with the inspection. Rob answered all of our questions
and had a number of helpful suggestions. I must say I was very impressed
on the emphasis Rob placed on the privacy of our information in regards
to future marketing and contact. Rob
was great and answered all of our questions. The home report was excellent
and extremely detailed. His findings led to an investigation by a
plumbing service regarding basement moisture, a problem which is currently
being corrected. All in all, it was well worth the time and expense.
We certainly appreciate your help. Rob
was excellent and answered all my questions. I was also impressed
with his extensive knowledge in the field on home construction. Maria
and I would like to say thanks for your professionalism and for the
above-expected quality of service you provided during our PDI today,
especially the things that went unnoticed by us, but not by Rob. Both
of us were very impressed. Rob
was wonderful. He certainly answered all of our questions, and had
answers to questions we never even thought we had! He also made himself
available in the future if we ever had any other questions or concerns.
Thanks again and we will definitely refer any friends or family who
may require your services. I
thought Rob was very thorough and detailed in his assessment and description
of his findings. I feel that the whole process was applicable. Each
piece of information was relevant and informative. Greatly appreciated!
I will be a return customer for sure. Thank
you for your professionalism and expertise in handling two home inspections
for which I was the buying agent. I enjoy working with you and calling
your office – Sheila is amazing. Rob
was great -- very informative! This was our 1st inspection and he
explained everything to us, including what to look for in the future
(maintenance). We're used to condo life, so "downspouts" was
just something I'd heard of on HGTV, but never really thought about.
We also appreciate that Rob gave us his card, so we can contact him
with any further questions we might have (it was a lot to take in
all at once). Rob
answered all of our questions. We found him to be sincere and trustworthy
and we really appreciated his apparent caring. We were able to weigh
the information he provided us and came to the decision not to finalize
the deal. We consider ourselves lucky to have been through this process--we
learned a lot and feel better equipped to pre-judge the houses we
continue to view. Obviously our new found pre-judging capabilities
are by no means equivalent to a house inspection so we would definitely
be interested in using Rob's services again and the no-book discount
you mentioned. Rob
answered all of our questions and more. We truly appreciated his professionalism
and assistance. He caught two major issues that we did not catch.
We renegotiated the pricing to reflect the repair/upgrade we would
have to make and, in the end, the vendors agreed to a half way point
of $ 2,500.00. Just
wanted to thank you for the great job you did for me yesterday. Your
ability to present home deficiencies to purchasers without scaring
clients makes you a great inspector! The client was extremely happy
with your services and the information you provided for him. Much
success this year and thanks again! Robert
was fantastic!! He covered all the bases and was extremely thorough.
We have already started to recommend him to all our friends and family
looking to buy in the near future. I really appreciated the information
and expert advice. We are very excited and can't wait to move in. Rob
was very helpful. He answered Danny’s questions and went over
the inspection report with him in great detail. The binder Rob provided
has a wealth of information for us to review. Thanks again for the
great service. We will always refer friends to HOMECORE. Rob
was fantastic. He did an excellent job of describing the home to us.
Sadly, we were unsuccessful in our offer to purchase this particular
home. We would definitely use Homecore in the future, as we are still
actively looking to purchase. Rob's
inspection and review with us was one of the reasons we felt so confident
in the amount with which we eventually won the bid. After his personal
inspection he took us through the house and explained each major section
of the report, his findings, and his recommendations. Thoroughly professional
and very personable, we would recommend Rob to anyone we know needing
home inspection services. The
house inspection was more than I expected. Rob did a fabulous job
and answered all my questions and concerns. Rob was very thorough
and provided me with comprehensive documentation of his findings. Everything
with the inspection was great. Rob was very thorough and explained
everything to us that was unclear to us. We had lots of questions
and Rob answered them all. Rob
was AWESOME!! He was very thorough. He answered all of Garrett's questions
and concerns. I don't think we could have gotten a better inspection
by anyone else. We are very happy with the amount of time and care
he took with the inspection. We would definitely recommend your services
to our friends (and we have). Everything
went great with the home inspection. Rob answered all my questions
to my satisfaction and did a really good job of explaining details
of the home inspection at a level that I could understand. My agent
was also very impressed with Rob. Sadly, there were 11 offers on the
house and I was not the lucky bidder. I will definitely hang onto
the report, as I fully intend to use your services the next time I
plan to put an offer in for a house. Rob
was great. He answered all our questions. Your service was excellent.
Would recommend to all my friends. You guys do a really good job!!
Really felt Rob was an extra miler in terms of service and support. The
inspection went very well. We were very pleased with Rob's service.
He answered all our questions and even more - I mean he gave us all
the details about the condition of the house and advice in terms of
future maintenance. All
of our questions were answered during the home inspection that Rob
did for us. And yes, we were finally the lucky bidders. I was very
pleased with Rob's thoroughness and patience in explaining anything
that I was not familiar with. I will definitely recommend HomeCore
to friends and family. Rob
was great help. The inspection was illuminating. It was a really great
experience, and we will be using his report to guide us through immediate
repairs and then maintaining the house in the future. Thank
you for following up. It’s great to get personalized service
and to know that you aren’t forgotten. The inspection went really
well and Rob did a fantastic job of explaining everything to me, and
answering all questions. Overall, I am very pleased with the services
provided and would definitely recommend HomeCore to my friends and
family! Rob
was very helpful and informative and thorough which was great as we
are new to the 'home buying' process. We would like you to know that
we would have no hesitations using Rob and Homecore again in the future
and will definitely refer others to HomeCore as well. Thank you as
well, Sheila, for your help and assistance... it was a pleasure to
speak with you and you were most helpful in helping us to schedule/arrange
the inspection. Everything
went very well with the inspection. Our expectations were met and
exceeded. Rob was fantastic! He answered all our questions and more.
He was very knowledgeable and really helped us to understand what
he was trying to explain. We really appreciate all that HomeCore has
done to help us make such an important decision. We feel very comfortable
with our home purchase, especially after the overall inspection rating. Rob
answered all of our questions in a very competent and professional
manner. It is obvious that Rob cares a great deal about his job, and
that is very comforting with such a major purchase. We
were both very impressed with Rob's professionalism, and his knowledge
regarding the inspection and home maintenance in general. We have
already recommended your service to friends of ours. Rob
did a great job on the home inspection for us! He was professional
but also friendly in answering the questions we had! Rob pointed out
many items and suggested corrective action options for us and gave
us some time lines that we very helpful. The
inspection went very well. I felt Rob was very thorough and provided
me with a lot of details and information (helpful for a first time
home owner). We were not the lucky bidders, however a just a few days
later we engaged Rob yet again for another inspection... this time
we were the lucky bidders. Again, I was very comfortable with Rob's
assessment. I was not able to be there for the walkthrough, but he
took time to walk thorough it with me over the phone while on site
and answered all my questions. Rob
was great. He was very thorough and took us through his findings at
a pace which made us feel very comfortable. He was great at answering
all our questions and was very knowledgeable in all aspects of the
home. He made us aware of what we needed to be cautious of and what
he thought was acceptable. Rob was very professional at all times
and we were very thankful for having him onsite to help us with the
Home Inspection. Rob
was wonderful, informative, and very patient with us. Rob answered
all our questions, and was kind enough to let us know that we could
call him in the future, and that "no question is silly". Unfortunately
we didn't get the house as another party out bid us. However, we were
extremely pleased with Rob's work - he was thorough, knowledgeable
and a very pleasant person. He took the time to explain anything we
didn't understand and I felt that he was honest with us and that he
didn't cut any corners which we really appreciated. Rob
was very thorough and detailed throughout the inspection. I showed
my boss (who is a builder) the inspection book - he was impressed
- had never seen one done like that before - also he was impressed
with the estimated costs for repairs - pretty accurate. I will certainly
recommend your company. The
home inspection was fantastic. Rob is very knowledgeable and was able
to share a lot of detailed information with us. I have never gone
through a home inspection before, but I thought he was very thorough.
I really appreciate the full service that is provided. Rob
made us feel very comfortable; we walked away at the end of the inspection
feeling very well informed. As new "old home" buyers we
didn't know exactly what to expect with an older home. Rob's explanation
of all the details, from attic insulation to plumbing and everything
in-between, was very informative and unbiased. We now feel comfortable
knowing what areas of the house will need priority repairs and which
can wait until a later date. You have provided us with the facts we
needed to know to move ahead with our decision to purchase this property.
We would be more than happy to recommend you to anyone we know requiring
this type of service. Rob
answered all of our questions and then some. He was extremely professional
and thorough in his inspection. Not only did he inspect our home and
made us confident of our decision but also gave us a time line and
plan for future maintenance and suggested changes. We are very glad
we hired him for the job. We actually know and appreciate the difference
between a 'real' inspection and just an 'inspection.' Thank you so
much for your help. I'm going to recommend you to anybody I know who
needs an inspection. I really appreciate your follow-ups and hope
to continue our relationship with your company. We
felt Rob did an excellent job of the inspection, and in helping us
make our final decision. Rob answered all of our questions, and I
would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Thanks again for all
of your help. We have a lot of peace of mind, with this property,
largely thanks to Rob's inspection. The
inspection went very well and Rob was very thorough in explaining
all the issues with the house. The seller agreed to address most of
the issues of concern and my wife and I finalized the purchase. I
will be referencing the report a lot in order to address some of the
minor issues. Rob did an excellent job and his report has proven to
be an invaluable service. We would like to thank Homecore for providing
this service. The
inspection was great and we were very happy with Rob’s services.
Rob addressed all of our concerns and we felt comfortable moving forward
based on his thoughts and recommendations. You can be sure that if
any one requests the name of a good house inspector, Rob will be the
person we recommend. Everything
went well with the inspection. Wayne was very pleased with Rob, all
questions were answered and Wayne found him to be attentive to detail.
We will refer him to others since he did such a great job. Rob
was excellent, he provided me with great information on our house.
It pays to work with a qualified/registered home inspector. As well,
I am planning on changing careers into Real Estate within the next
6-12 months and would be passing along your name to future clients
of mine. I was really impressed with HomeCore and glad to recommend
you to my future clients. Everything
went well with the inspection. Rob was professional, friendly and
very informative. He addressed all of our questions thoroughly and
without confusion. We are very pleased with the service that was provided
and will recommend his service highly. Just
wanted to take a moment to email you about how happy I always am with
your services at HomeCore. Hi,
Sheila, I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for arranging
Mr. Rob Hermann to conduct our inspection. It was our first experience
in having a home inspection. We enjoyed this experience, as Rob went
through the inspection process and provided us with tips on the maintenance
of our home. The report will be handy for our home maintenance. Rob
answered all of our questions, and answered a lot we wouldn't have
even thought to ask. Very pleased with the inspection and the supplementary
data that was provided. The maintenance schedules will be especially
helpful as we're first-time buyers. We ended up finalizing the deal
two days later and used the information from the inspection to negotiate
a lower price with the sellers, so the inspection definitely paid
off. Our
inspection was great. Honestly, it was a little scary for us as first-time
home buyers, since we hadn't really anticipated how things can add
up so quickly. Rob
was great. He answered all of our questions. As a first time home
buyer I had no idea what was about to happen and before I could ask
him, he beat me to it!! He started off introducing himself, what he
does and what he was about to do in his inspection. He was also very
helpful in explaining his findings. Rob was very professional and
I would recommend him and your company to anyone. We
have purchased a number of homes and the review that Rob undertook
was quite comprehensive, which is very much appreciated. Many have
suggested that you shouldn’t need a home inspection for a new
house, but Rob proves that advice is mistaken. While it is always
nice to know your home is well built (as he suggested ours is) it
is also very helpful to know where the builder has taken some short
cuts, or perhaps has yet to deliver what is ultimately required (and
is captured in Rob’s suggestions for the PDI). Purchasing a
house is a “peace of mind game” and Rob’s inspection
went a long way to confirm that we had purchased the right house.
The completeness of the binder should also be a very useful tool in
ensuring that we continue to get much enjoyment from our home for
years to come. The helpful hints and tips will become part of our
spring and fall cleaning rituals. We
felt that Rob was very thorough with the inspection and answered all
our questions beyond our expectations. We were very impressed with
the structured method of the inspection and the structure of the report.
The inspection report exceeded our expectations - we were expecting
a 5-page report, but instead got a very detailed report that was extremely
well organized and easier to follow than we had expected. Rob
was recommended to us by my aunt and now I know why. I will be recommending
Rob in the future. He was absolutely wonderful! He is methodical and
explains everything. He is a pleasure to work with. It’s not
too often you find people who take such pride in their work. Thanks
so much, Rob. My clients were so impressed with your services. Alex's
dad even called me later to say how grateful he was that you would
take so much time explaining everything to them. I
was very satisfied with the inspection. Rob was very thorough & took
the time to explain things to me so that I understood everything.
Because it was an older house I was a little nervous about what he
might find, and was relieved by his report. My agent, Susan Gunn (Century
21 Premier Realty) , recommended him and I felt confident in his abilities.
I would definitely recommend him to others. Rob
was excellent, he walked us through the house, pointed out any potential
problems. He was more than willing to take whatever time was necessary
to answer any and all questions. He conducted himself in a very professional
and friendly manner. I will not hesitate to use him in the future,
should the need arise and will recommend his services to others. Your
report helped tremendously and the vendor agreed to all the requested
changes and deficiency repairs. We will be recommending your service
to our friends. I
was so pleased with Rob's most thorough inspection. I feel he left
no stone unturned in inspecting my house, and I was able to go forward
and finalize the sale with confidence. I also was grateful for his
explanation of all the working/electrical/structural parts of my home.
I feel that I can now live in this house with confidence. Janny
and I would like to thank you for inspecting our home this past Sunday.
The inspection was both informative and very thorough. We will definitely
recommend your services to our friends and feel free to use us as
a referral. Thanks for the excellent home inspection. We
appreciated Robert's dedication to his role as a home inspector and
excellent knowledge in the building industry; Robert's comprehensive
detail and excellent delivery of the home inspection report; and the
comfort level one feels with Robert in asking questions and getting
direct comprehensive responses. Rob
was fantastic and very professional. As we are first time home buyers,
we were unsure of what to expect and Rob was able to walk us through
the process and answer all of our questions. The report is a great
resource tool, and gave us the confidence to go ahead with our purchase.
We also plan on recommending Rob to any of our friends and family
who require a home inspector – he was great to work with. We
were very happy with Rob's service. He was very patient, organized
and professional. We definitely will use your service again when we
make our next purchase. As a matter of fact, I have already mentioned
Rob's name to my friend who will be buying more rental properties
in the future. My real estate agent was impressed, too. Rob
was, without question, one of the most professional businessmen I
have dealt with in a very long time. He was thorough, informative
and helpful. I will no doubt recommend him to anyone looking for a
home inspection. Pass along our thanks and ask him how the TV show
is going. The
service was unbelievably superb. I learned so much. The layout of
the book and timelines and suggestions are wonderful. Rob was a wealth
of great info, over and above the inspection!! Rob gave me great all-around
advice for maintenance and safety issues. Rob
was amazing! He was so informative and he made us feel so comfortable
telling us in a simpler form all about our house. We feel like we
know our new house well!!!! That binder is amazing! Rob
was so helpful in both our decision to not complete the deal on the
first house, and our decision to go ahead and purchase the house we
did buy. Rob
was extremely helpful throughout the inspection and he offered invaluable
information about the preparation of my own home for sale. I was very
impressed and would have no hesitation in recommending his services
to my friends and family. Good
morning Sheila & Rob, just a quick note to thank you both very
much for your assistance in arranging and inspecting our new home! Rob
instills confidence when relaying information. He was very thorough
and forthcoming. Of most value we found the pointing out of work that
needs to be done immediately. We received excellent advice on directions
to go to get the work done. We appreciated learning about what aspects
can wait, allowing for prioritizing and budgeting. Rob is excellent
at what he does. HomeReport
is thoroughly organized, and will provide us with essential information
pertaining to maintenance. As a first-time homebuyer, this will be
helpful. Rob gave in-depth explanations to our questions. The
use of the video for the roof inspection is excellent. It helps to
understand. No part of the inspection was irrelevant. Excellent service,
money well spent! Thanks! I
just wanted to say a "huge thanks" for your extra visits
to verify the electrical panel stuff after I had the first visit by
an electrician. Justine & I both really appreciated the professional & personal
service - meant a lot to us as first time homebuyers. Your service
was above and beyond anything I would have expected and noting your
professional pride too, I would highly recommend HomeCore (I'm copying
our realtor, John Helfrich from Re/Max Hallmark - hope that's OK). We
were really impressed with Rob's knowledge and experience, especially
his thoroughness to inspect our future home. We loved the binder as
well as the email after the inspection to tell us about the garage
door opener. Keep up the good work. The
inspector was excellent at translating and explaining issues/situations
in a manner that was easily understood. Helping us understand insurance
troubles and repairs required was also helpful. We
were extremely satisfied with the home inspection. It was professional
and comprehensive and was above our expectations. The inspection was
meticulous and well warranted. The inspector was patient and thorough.
We put an offer on the home but did not get it. We will definitely
use your services in the future and highly recommend your company
to our friends and clients. As
first time homeowners, there was so much to know. Rob went through
everything very thoroughly - all our questions were answered. Knowing
we can be in touch down the road is very comforting. After
receiving Rob's report we were happy to purchase the property. Rob
is a consummate professional, and we are extremely happy to have used
his services, and we will definitely be spreading the word. I
have yet to see an inspector so sincere and honest as Rob Hermann.
He thoroughly covered everything I expected. I enjoyed his professionalism
and presentation. Thank you. Rob
Hermann inspected our house for us, and our realtor, who was present,
said Rob was probably the most thorough inspector he'd ever come across.
Rob raised some concerns about the aluminum wiring and advised us
to get an electrician in to tie copper ends on so that this wiring
would no longer be a concern. My initial reaction was “big deal,
a lot of houses have aluminum wiring. My parents have aluminum wring
and they have had no problems”, but after discussing the potential
risks we decided to be on the safe side and take Rob's advice. Being
a first-time buyer I was nervous before the inspection, but Rob put
all my worries to rest. He has excellent people skills. I felt very
confident in Rob's abilities - he simply lays it all out and let's
you decide. The HomeReport binder is a terrific addition. I will definitely
track my new purchase with it. Thank you for such a thorough job! We
were very pleased and impressed with our inspection, particularly
in comparison to previous inspections by others. We found the information
provided about potential maintenance issues to be the most relevant
for us. We
were very satisfied with all aspects of the inspection process, especially
as this was for our one-year warranty inspection. We were very impressed
with the service that we received and as a result would have absolutely
NO problem in recommending your service to friends and family members
should they be looking for someone. Rob
was recommended to us from a friend of ours who had just had their
warranty inspection done. Rob did our warranty inspection, and it
was fantastic! Best money I ever spent. Thank
you, Rob. Both Robert and I were thoroughly impressed and enjoyed
learning about our new home, despite the minor surprises. Thank you
for taking the time to answer all of our questions and to provide
the much-needed detail we were looking for. |
