Indoor Air Quality Ottawa

We were in the process of buying a property and decided to contact IAQ Ottawa for the Home Inspection, when we called their office they were very kind and despite off being overbooked, Marie their office manager opened an extra space for us and we were able to get the inspection done according to our time frame
.
Shawn Rankin, the home inspector was amazing, he was very professional and satisfied all of our needs he arrived on time and went through all the areas of the property providing with tons of accurate information that help us making a decision. It was not only his knowledge, it was the way he explained it to us in simple words.

He did a mold testing and suggested that since the property was located in Alta vista, it could contain Asbestos. We got freaked out since had an idea about how expensive could be to deal with asbestos. But he calmed us down, explaining us about the possible solutions in case that the materials were confirmed as positive. Anyway we decided to expend some money in order to make a wise decision.

When the results came back, they were negative for asbestos but positive for mold. During the inspection and in the written report, he pointed some construction issues found, and considered them as potential problems which made us not to purchase the property.

I really appreciate his help and considered that it was the best that we could have done, we won’t hesitate to call him back for future inspections. He saved us from having big problems and headaches.

I would certainly recommend IAQ Ottawa and will use them again.

Thank you Shawn Rankin.
