Home Inspection

Rick arrived early and though we were late, he used his time to conduct an inspection of the exterior. He was very through both inside and out and is very knows his trade really well. I was impressed that Rick opened by the furnace and electrical panel and took a look inside with pictures and he report he provides indicates potentail deficiencies and how to fix them. He took the time to explain everything in detail and how the hvac systems worked and what to look for. When we found something we didn't understand rick showed us his website that has a training centre for his clients. He pays VERY close attention to detail and is happyto explain anything we asked of him. I would absolutely recommend Rick for any house inspection. Our house was about 30 years old and Rcik went over it with a fine tooth comb. We appreciated all his help.

I could easily rant and rave about the vast knowledge and experience that Rick brought to the inspection, the passion he exudes for his profession, his thoroughness, sharp wit, and how he opened up a variety of possibilities and solutions to my narrow minded and limit perspective, but instead I shall simply say book him now, and see for yourself.

Home Inspection prior to purchase; Advice re. renovations after purchase

We were very pleased to have Rick Clayton do our home inspection prior to purchase. He was professional, very open to conversation/questions regarding how we might address any of the issues he encountered and, most importantly, sent an extremely helpful summary of his work for future reference. He's also been available for further consultation (as we decide which walls can come down and which can't) which has proven invaluable. All in all, very well worth the money invested. Thanks Rick!

House Inspection

Rick Clayton is personable and knowledgeable. He answered my many many questions very patiently and kindly. The report I received is thorough, and easy to understand. I had another inspector on another house that was very good, but Rick is better. I am a very pleased client.

home inspections

We were looking at purchasing an older home and found Real Home off homestars. I'm so glad I did. We found issues with foundation that would have made the place a money pit. We opted for the more thorough inspection with the infrared camera and Oliver the dog for mold. It was worth every penny. Our inspector was so easy to talk to and explained everything in detail. I would definitely recommend Real Home Inspections to anyone looking to buy a home. I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Home inspection

Rick is a professional through and through. He was flexible with timing, and accommodated the fact that we had to change the date of the inspection at the last minute. He arrived on time for the house inspection, and was very through in his examination. He used a thermal scanner and moisture detector which is a great benefit. He was very knowledgeable and personable, and all questions were answered with detail and practicality. The actual report itself was very organized, and sent to me electronically in less than 24 hours which was great. All in all, I would whole-heartedly use Rick and his services again, and recommend him to others.
