Home Sweet Home Inspections

Had George do a home inspection before buying our first home. Very impressed with quality of work and all the knowledge and information he was able to provide us with about the house.

George was very thorough. He took great pics of the areas that needed work and explained orally and in a detailed written report what should be done to bring our new home up to code.allof his recommendations were fulfilled by the seller. Very happy with his inspection.

George did a home inspection of a century home in welland for me...my main concern was if the house had knob and tube wiring.. numerous times I asked him if the house contained this..every response was no...he found ungrounded plugs on the main and second floor...upon taking the cover off the breaker panel and looking at the unfinished basement..he adamantly said no knob and tube...and said electrical satisfactory in report...well...upon having an electrician in...I have found the entire house is indeed knob and tube as well as aluminum wiring in unfinished basement ..and that the entire house is wired to only one circuit breaker...long story short..I wouldnt recommend george to do an inspection...waste of money...george...thank you for your response... where do i start... the several issues you are referring to are mere capping of outside siding, a post in the ground sticking up, etc things like this.... the 400 items... wow... the house is 1300 sq not the magnitude you alude to... the 14 sub categories which are sheets preprinted which contain info on that category ie... outside of home...eg wood siding brick...etc... yes your eyes would tell you what the house was made of ...so you read down the chart and tick the correct one... same idea for the other categories ie..electricity,plumbing... etc,., so when you say you looked at 400 items.... wow.... you mention that you didnt see knob and tube in the attic... im sorry the electrician did.... he also saw it in the electric panel downstairs..... and... the asbestos... nice touch... i comment on knob and tube and you bring something totally irrelevant up to the issue.... yes there is a 26”x34” piece of asbestos type material in the basement... you said 500$ to remove or just use a piece of panelling to cover it.... i asked specifically if you would be putting that in your report... to which you replied no its so small ... to which i thanked you.... regardless the issue i came here for was the knob and tube... lastly... as a consumer i am intitled to my opinion on your services.... you denied me being a customer first... then when proof was offered you whined and complained that my comment was unfair.... i removed it... and stated “just the facts mamme”... as per your request on this site... then... as expected you come back and throw the asbestos at me... all i can say is `WOW``.... people ... reading this... please do yourself a great favour... hire an electrician and a plumber to do your inspection... 100$ each.... will save you a ton of money down the line.....

George took his time and was very thorough. He addressed all aspects and made recommendations. He was very personable which made me feel very comfortable. I was extremely pleased with George and would recommend him in a heartbeat.

The home inspection provided by Larry was very professional. The amount of detail involved was very comforting. When buying your first home nerves are always there, this home inspection eased the nervous feeling and made us very sure we were making the correct decision. I would totally recommend Home Sweet Home to any of my friends and family. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS!

George and Larry have each done a home inspection for me and am thrilled about their incredible detail and thoroughness. Both provided an extremely friendly and professional exam of the properties purchased and allowed me to buy these homes with the utmost confidence. Their insight and recommendations have been tremendous when sorting out any maintenance or upkeep, as well as useful for preventing issues which may arise down the line. These two will be highly recommended by me for all those who are in search of home inspections. You can hire George and Larry with extreme confidence.

George came out to the home inspection on time. He acted professional throughout the entire inspection. He demonstrated a high degree of respect towards the existing home owner's belongings as well as us, the potential buyers.
George required space and time to conduct the home inspection. This was gladly received by us because this way he was able to concentrate and afterwards he walked us through the entire area and answered each and every question with confidence.
George has a tremendous amount of patience and integrity. He was honest with us and took pictures to back up every recommendation. He took his time to explain everything and even if we did not understand, he rephrased until we totally understood.
George takes pride with what he does. We would definitely recommend him to everyone. We did not see any faults with George or his quality of work.
George is meticulous and has great penmanship. George's price for the inspection was well worth. If you want a top notch inspection at a very reasonable price, don't hesitate to contact him.
During the inspection, George took photos. His photos were clear and labelled correctly - in addition when he sent his photos to my email account, his message was quite personable.
*We were not referred to George. My wife searched inspection companies in or near Thorold, ON. My wife based her decision on the way in which George responded and his website and his price. From the onset of communications, George responded professionally and his entire demeanour is of good character.
Great job George! We are very happy we chose you over the rest of the inspection companies!

George was very informative and did a good and thorough job. He explained what needed immediate attention and the reasons why.
Thanks George, I would highly recommend you to anyone looking for a home inspection.

George conducted a home inspection for me last weekend. He was referred to me by my realtor. I found George to be very professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. I received all the information needed to make an informed decision based on his expertise. Thank you George for the binder, I have read all the inspection pages, and started reading the book. It is much needed info for a woman to learn all the ins and outs of home ownership. I like having the pics as well, as I can visually see the condition of various areas. Thanks George. Sandy
