Real Home Inspections Ontario

We have used Rick Clayton for multiple home inspections and his level of service, professionalism and attention to detail is incredible. He is extremely knowledgable in his field which allows you to ask any question and get an answer. I would highly recommend Rick's services.

I used RHI for my home inspection when looking to buy my first house. Rick arrived well ahead of the scheduled time and had already competed the exterior inspection. Rick's insights and recommendations were very helpful even for someone who has experience in home renovations. The infared camera portion helped to identify moisture in the ceiling which needs to be further investigated and remediated. In the end the services are worth piece of mind knowing all potential issues are discovered before buying.

Rick Clayton did the home inspection for me on August 12th, 2015. It is an older home (built in '99) and he did a FANTASTIC job! I was impressed with his attention to detail, thoroughness and patience (we asked many questions!) He was extremely professional - showed up half an hour early and started right away, had numerous observations, constructive suggestions and recommendations. His follow up is great as well - I really like the report format (e-mail, contains all relevant details, pictures, recommendations, etc.) I would recommend Rick any day!

I was very impressed with Rick's professionalism - yet he is a very nice and friendly guy to deal with - go figure.
One can tell that he has worked in the business of construction and home inspection for many years.
Besides the home inspection (which didn't leave anything undetected or unexplained) the report I got included many pictures and even repair suggestions/instructions where applicable. Very pleased - from start to finish - all at a very competitive price.
Keep it up Rick

We found Rick via his website and contacted him via text to set up a home inspection on short notice. He arrived at our meeting time early and already inspecting the exterior of the property.

He was a joy to work with and extremely professional and knowledgeable. Rick took the time to answer all of our questions and explain things thoroughly throughout the home inspection. As we are first time home buyers this was very important to us.

Rick utilizes a lot of technology to help provide a better service and he explains why/how the tech helps him perform his job better. He also is very thorough in the actual inspection, not hesitating to crawl into tight spaces, dirty attics, etc.

Following the inspection, Rick emailed us an Inspection Report that detailed all the things he identified as issues with the house. He uses a lot of detailed images to explain whats wrong and how the issues can be fixed. The report came very quickly following the inspection.

We left completely satisfied with the inspection and we will be using him again when the time comes and recommending his service to all our friends.

I needed a home inspector for a house that I was buying, and found Rick Clayton with Real Home Inspections by checking the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors website. He has multiple certifications (RHI & CMI), and a very user-friendly website for information and to book the inspection. I met Rick at the house, and he started right away. He did an extremely thorough inspection, and answered all of my questions as I walked with him. He found a couple of big issues that I had the seller take care of before the purchase completed. I am extremely satisfied with Rick's work, and will definitely refer him to everyone.

Our family relocated cities, and purchased a new home in London, ON. Rick Clayton's service for our house inspection was awesome. It was super easy to book online. Rick was professional, on time, and was really detailed during his inspection. He took lots of time to answer all our questions - you could just tell that he really knows his stuff! On top of that, he was super nice and funny - which made what could be a tedious process much more fun. Highly recommended!

Mr. Clayton made a good job. He checked everything what was included in inspection plan. In case of problems he explained very clear what's the problem and what should be the remedy. He answered all my questions. I like the review report as well. I highly recommend his service.

I can't say enough positive things about Rick and his home inspection services. He was recommended to me by a friend who had enlisted his services and it was very clear why she spoke so highly of him.

Rick took time to explain the process with me, to show me exactly what he was doing and made sure I knew he was available for any questions I might have both while waiting for the report and afterward if I needed anything. He is professional, knowledgeable and so very kind.
Because I am dealing with a compromised immune system and have to be extra careful with mould, I was rather anxious about the testing. Rick was reassuring yet thorough and got back to me with the results very quickly.
He is affordable and really cares about providing high quality service.
I am so grateful for his work.

Rick was great. He showed up early and got right to work. He explained everything he would be putting in his final report and asked us after he looked at each room if we had any questions. We had his report within 24 hrs of the service. I would definitely recommend him as he is personable, professional and thorough
