Home Inspection

As a first time homebuyer, the entire process has been somewhat overwhelming and daunting.

Phil and his colleague, were able to quickly come and do the inspection during my conditional period. They took their time to explain everything they were doing, looking at and how they were testing for certain things.

They are exceptionally knowledgeable, thorough and professional.

Home Inspection

My husband and I are very impressed with Phil's knowledge and expertise during the home inspection. He is also very friendly, patient, kind and respectful. Phil pointed out several items that we did not noticed and suggested many recommendations to remedy the problems. He also took the time to explain his concerns and why XYZ needs to be updated. It was a pleasure to work with Phil and would contact him if needed in the future. We highly recommend Phil!

Thorough and Knowledgeable Inspection

We had an incredible experience with our home inspection. The team was extremely knowledgeable and professional, explaining everything clearly and even pointing out issues we would have missed. They uncovered multiple building code violations that the builder overlooked, which could have caused serious problems later. Thanks to them, were now much more informed and confident in our next steps. Their expertise and thorough approach were invaluable. Highly recommend!

The team truly knows what they are doing.

Thorough and professional home inspection provided, great guys!

Phil and his partner provided me with an excellent walk-through during the home inspection assessment and answered all questions I had. Once the inspection was completed, the provided inspection report was detailed, easy to understand, and thorough. I'd also like to add that Phil has a great sense of humour and this made the inspection all the more relaxed. I highly recommend Phil and his team to everyone and as well, this rates are very competitive!

Top Notch Company

Acker Home Inspection provides excellent service, which is why I am a return customer and I have no qualms about referring them to others. Phil recently completed an inspection on a home I purchased, making my second home-buying experience less stressful. Phil's professional yet approachable demeanour made it comfortable to ask questions and review findings. I really appreciate how the report covers each area in an understandable manner, technical information and pictures included. The report is so helpful and will help me stay on top of maintenance after possession. Top notch service again, thank you. Julie Bourk, Stittsville, Ontario

Home inspection

Sincere thanks to Phil and Randy for doing a home inspection for our first home. I felt very supportive and informed by their inspection of the home. I felt very comfortable to ask questions and to come along for the entire inspection. We received a detailed summary very shortly after the session.
Thanks again!

Home Inspection

I would highly recommend Acker Home Inspection.

Phil was very knowledgeable and has a very keen eye. As a first-time home buyer, I had a lot of anxiety prior to the home inspection, but his calm and informative way of delivering information put me at ease.

My house was on the newer side, but he was still able to point out many minor issues the house would need remedied and provided me with a good roadmap for the future maintenance of my house.
