Pre-purchase home inspection

We hired Manjur to do a home inspection. He was very professional to deal with and thorough as he went through the home. He answered all our questions and provided clean and concise responses. He went through the home meticulously and provide a detailed report of his findings. He even listed what sort of maintenance that I need to do to keep my house in good condition. He explained everything in great details and ensured that the I understood all the issues. I was very impressed to see Manjur using a thermal imaging camera and the fantastic part is at no extra charge. This was great as he could tell me exactly how my insulations are. I think all the other companies would charge extra for this service where-as he simply did it for free. Even after the purchase of my home I am still seeking his service in terms of upgrades and maintenance issues. I have a lot of respect for the great service he provides to his clients. In conclusion It was a pleasure to deal with Manjur and would recommend his services. Thanks, Manjur!

Home Inspection

Mr. Manjur was very throrough in his inspection of my house. He is very passionate about his work and treated my house as if it were his own. I had no clue that the builder was hiding so many faults in my house. Thankfully Mr.Manjur caught everything. He has all the equipment(some very advanced thermo device) to do the job necessary. Thanks!

One of my colleagues referred Manjur Ahmed for home inspection while I was looking for a home inspector before finalizing the purchase of my new home.. I spoke with Manjur and quickly realized that he is a knowledgeable, professional and friendly person who can help me achieving my goal.

On the inspection date Manjur showed up at right time with all his inspection tools including the infra red camera (for which he doesn't charge any additional cost). He started inspecting the house and explained to me the status of each and every item he inspected and suggested some items that needed to be replaced immediately and gave me an idea about the rough estimate for the replacement cost.. He checked the energy efficiency of the most of the items and explained how the replacements will save energy and money.. With his infrared camera he was able to track the extent of crack in the foundation and mould growth in the plywood under the roof sheathing.

I found Manjur as a hardworking, and detail oriented professional who has sound knowledge about the building code and who is able to suggest cost effective ways of replacement of items that need to be repaired or replaced. His rates are reasonable compared to other home inspectors.

I would recommend Manjur as home inspector for those who have been looking for an inspector for inspecting their houses for selling or buying.

Home inspection

I requested Mr. Manjur to inspect our first home for 30-day Warranty as he came highly recommended by one of my family member. We found Mr. Manjur to be very informative about housing issues; knowledgeable about house building codes; efficient in finding hidden issues and professional in conducting inspection. For each issue, he explained using the terminologies that we understand and about the consequence if it's not taken care of. The Tarion report was prepared on time. It was very detailed and included pictures for each issue found. We also took the opportunity to ask him questions to improve our electricity and heating efficiency, and he was very helpful in his response. I will definitely recommend Mr. Manjur to any home buyer needing an inspection.

Home Inspection

Manjur did excellent job and was very professional. He went above and beyond by explaining maintenance and improvement tips which will save me lot of money and headache in future. He was very patient with my questions and through with the answers.
By using Infrared camera he was able to confirm that there are no isolation and mold issues that are not detectable without the tool. There was no extra charge for this service.
I would recommend Reliable Home Inspection Services to everyone who wants to buy home with peace of mind.

Manjur performed a through job. He clearly describe to me the problem areas and what I need to watch for. The owner has acquiesced to some of the issues highlighted by Manjur and as result the final purchase price was reduced.

Home inspection

Mr Manjur is an experienced engineer who has been in the field for many years. He inspected three houses for us, and in each case the feedback was excellent. He uses state of the art instruments in inspections. I was impressed by the thermal imager which he now uses, and enabled him to identify several cracks in the roof of a new house. This would not have been detectable otherwise and helped us to significantly negotiate the purchase price. He took the time for further followups and has always given us valuable advice on home maintenance. I strongly recommend Mr Manjur for home inspection.
