Home Sweet Home Inspections

George did a home inspection for the house we purchased last month as an investment property. He identified a number of safety issues that we are correcting before we advertise the house for rental. He was very thorough - he even wriggled through the cramped crawlspace to find the municipal water shutoff valve. We highly recommend George and would use him again.

George recently did a pre listing inspection for us. We had heard that if we had the house pre inspected it would reduce our liability for any future issues and attract more offers. Boy were we right. We had over 20 offers with several asking to see the inspection report. We were able to address some of the issues prior to listing and provide proof of professional repairs. I would recommend George and this type of inspection to anyone.

Last year I had water coming into my basement and didn't know where it was coming from. My floorboards were all wet in a certain area, so I knew it was probably coming from one side of the basement, but didn't know which wall. After looking around I was told that a home inspection company should have the tools to help pinpoint the source of the crack. This would then make it easier to get the problem fixed. George from Home Sweet Home Inspections came to check the problem and was quickly able to identify two areas as the entry source for the water. George took out a small piece of the drywall and indicated that by pinpointing the source this way, that we would keep the drywall damage to a minimum. Possibly a small portion of a wall as opposed to multiple walls. George was very professional and was even able to refer a company that came in and repaired the cracks for a very reasonable price.

Great inspection for our walkthrough of our first home purchase! George took his time, explained everything he was looking for and provided an easy to understand list of projects for us to maintain and improve our house in the coming months/years.

Would recommend to anyone!

We got connected with George through Homestars for our newly purchased house in Hespeler, Cambridge. We bought our detached house built in mid 80's without pre-inspection. We were worried about the condition of the house as a first time buyer of an old house. George was quick to respond and set the inspection on closing day. He was very detail; basement, roof, garage, shade, attic, water, furnace, electric- everything you name it. After his inspection for more than 2 hours, George took us walk through the whole house and pointed out his observation. He provides a detail inspection report with pictures. We are very pleased with George's inspection and highly recommend his service.

I hired George to do a home inspection on my first home. He was very professional and helpful. Not only did he point out things that need fixing, he went above and beyond with recommendations of how to fix them, even sending me pictures of a relevant product he saw in a store. He also took the time to show me things I would have had trouble finding myself such as the water shutoff and how to adjust the temperature on the hot water tank. Thank you for your help and valuable tips!

My clients were very satisfied with their home inspection. The inspector was very thorough and documented all the area that require attention in the home. Job well done!

George did a home inspection for us. He did an exceptional job. From the start, he explained everything thoroughly and he was informative and professional. Excellent presentation with the inspection binder!!

George was great and I would love to work with him again. Very professional and very knowledgeable

Before placing an offer on a property in St. Catharines, I wanted to get a quick pre-inspection done to avoid any surprises.

George was very responsive, professional and showed up on time and was efficient in his use of the limited time we had by focusing on the highest risk systems within the house. He identified a key finding in the process which helped us tremendously in our decision-making.

I wouldn't hesitate to use George again for any future inspections!
