Classic Home Inspections Inc.

Brent did a home inspection for me on a heritage house in Old Oakville that I am thinking of purchasing. He was very professional and has excellent knowledge. His inspection was thorough and clearly documented. He was very helpful and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Brent and will work with him again in the future.

As a real estate broker, I rely on dependable and honest people to help service my clients. For the past five years, Brent at Classic Home Inspections has consistently delivered excellent service.

He provides a professional and, just as important, a personable approach to inspections. Brent is one of the few home inspectors I use that is actually fine with clients asking questions during the inspection. In addition, I find he's able to explain the items in layman's terms, whereas many inspections get caught up using overly technical terms.

I've had a few deals fall apart after his inspections uncovered items the buyers were not willing to accept. I've also had deals come together after he was able to suggest solutions to seemingly large problems.

I will continue to use Classic Home Inspections going forward. Brent provides an honest and informative home inspection, which is invaluable when making what will often be the most expensive purchase in your life.

We have used a few home inspectors. Brent was recommended by a colleague and did not disappoint. He showed up on time, very patient, knowledgeable, thorough, trustworthy and has a great sense of humour. He welcomed our questions, and answered them clearly in terms we were able to understand. He didn't rush through the process and was not afraid to get into odd places. Brent said he will inspect every inch of the house and actually meant it. With his knowledge and expertise, we were able to make a very informative decision to proceed with the deal, re-negotiate the price or back out on the deal that was sold conditionally on inspection. We couldn't have asked for a better home inspector. His service exceeded our expectation and we highly recommend Brent from Classic Home Inspection.

Brent was on time, did a thorough home inspection and was able to recommend action to remedy some problems he found that we had not noticed. He was personable, helpful, and very professional. I have no hesitation in recommending his services.

I used Classic more than once for a home inspection and I have used other home inspection services as well. (including the overly expensive and worthless Carson Dunlop inspections)

Brent at Classic is by far the most knowledgeable home inspector I've met and provides advice that I will rely upon. Many home inspectors are not thorough and will report they didn't go on the roof or go into the attic. Classic Home inspections seems to understand how important a thorough investigation is and works hard to deliver this. I have walked from a home inspection based upon Classic's findings, while we had a listing home inspection that was satisfactory from the Seller.

I was in a hurry to remove subjects so I came to HomeStars and found Brent. Very happy I did. Having used 3 other home inspectors in the past 2 years (for other properties), I can say that Brent is knowledgeable and very open to questions. Not only was he professional but he was very personable. He sent the report, pictures he took and a succinct summary of "fixes needed" on the same day, which helped me negotiate the sale price down another $3K.

Brent was personable and professional. He sent my mind at ease when purchasing my home which is an exciting but stressful moment - waiting to see if the Home Inspection will pass.

I highly recommend him to anyone purchasing a new or older home as he is very knowledgeable and thorough in his ability to inspect your home.

Thank you Brent!

Brent came out to inspect our home which was a new construction. He was punctual and extremely polite. He was very thorough and knowledgeable. Brent found important defects in both the interior and exterior of the house. He took photos and completed our 30 day Tarion warranty form. I would not hesitate to use his services again and would highly recommend him to friends.

Update: Unfortunately trying to book a follow up appointment (to ensure that the work was completed satisfactorily) and to get clarification on Brent's report, has proved to be very difficult and disappointing. On the whole he has been very slow to respond or has not responded at all.

Brent was professional and very knowledgeable. He was ontime and did a thorough inspection of the property. Brent was able to spot things that I had no idea happened and advised if the repair was done correctly. He gave us a very detailed report on the property and offered to answer any questions from insurance companies. Highly recommended.

Brent was very knowledgeable. He was friendly and very accommodating. Brent was thorough in his inspection of our property. He came back when we needed another inspection for our windows. We would highly recommend his services.
