Paid for a home energy audit Report

Clyde arrived on schedule, conducted a thorough check of the house and gave some verbal feedback re draftiness, things we should think about replacing etc but he said his findings and recommendations would be detailed in the written report. We paid $350 in full and it took about 3 weeks to get the report. The recommendations were very helpful.

Home assessment and Classroom Presentation

Last year, I contacted Mr. Johnson to see if he would be interested in presenting, about improving energy and heat efficiency within our homes, to all of our grade 7 students. He came out and spoke with over 180 students for the day. His understanding and credentials gave the students an opportunity to see how our science topic areas had real world connections. He was gracious enough to allow the students to use tools of the trade to assess the insulative qualities of different materials used in their popsicle stick framed homes. He enthusiastically agreed to come to our school again this year to share his time and knowledge with the students. Since most homes in our school community were constructed late 1990's -2000's, I agreed to have a inspection of my 70's built bungalow to help show differences in building envelope styles, to help lend more real world connections to his presentation. His evaluation process and techniques were thorough and effective. He then provided a very detailed report that included ways to improve efficiencies around the home and reduce energy costs and consumption. Even though my assessment was to benefit student understanding, if the government every reinstates the renovation process, I would gladly pay the full amount to have my home inspected again. I have already recommended friends and colleagues to get their homes assessed by him.

Energy audit

Clyde was a wonderful inspector to work with. He examined our home, gave us helpful advise and was able to diagnose the problem and provide recommendations. We received the energy audit report the same week that he was here!

Property inspection

That was great pleasure of having Johnson Probe inspect my newly purchased home. Clyde was very a professional and hard working person. I had Clyde inspect my first home in November 2014. I was impressed by Clyde's services. In this August, after the second home was purchased, I decided to have Clyde again to inspect the property. Clyde's service and advice was very valuable and helpful to me. Clyde was friendly, punctual, easy-going and dedicated. The inspection report was very detailed. Clyde did a Great job. I would like to recommend Johnson Probe to all of clients. I will sure to invite Clyde inspect my home again in future.

new (to us) home inspection

The inspection itself was good, and thorough, but we found the inspector to be rather condescending about most things.
I invited my father to come along, as he is very experienced in most sides of construction, and would likely be helping with any work required. I am also in the home industry. We both felt like he was treating us like children.
However, I am sure we did learn a thing or two...

We as inspectors are proud to be the Teachers and we will always have Condescendence, [Scot.] "listing the particulars" repeatedly, over and over, as we do our inspection. I am truly sorry that we showed this in a patronizing manner. We graciously assent to Clients even Fathers with Dignity and Respect.

Adjustable door seals on garage doors and front doors were easier to explaining the energy loss while adjusting. I was also showing you that energy savings with the small home owner maintenance items. It was my pleasure to meet you and make your house a little warmer.
