Fairbairn Home And Building Inspection

My husband and I are in the process of purchasing our very first home. It is an older home and being a new home buyer, I was worried about what can go wrong once I move-in and live there for the long-term. I looked up a few home inspectors and narrowed them down to three. Within the first 1/2 hour of meeting David at the home inspection, I knew we chose the right guy to do the job. He was able to identify areas of the house that are riskier for damages and he spent a lot of time inspecting those areas. I was along his side when he did the inspection and he walked me through every detail by explaining what and how he was inspecting an area. He is very knowledgeable and I learned A LOT about the house from top to bottom, inside and outside (especially after walking through the house with his thermal imaging!). David took his time to do the inspection. He would probe until he was able to better understand whether there could potentially be an issue or not. David helped identify serious damages in the house and he explained the matter and impact very well to me, as well as to my realtor and to the sellers' realtor when they inquired. He provided me with recommendations and the next steps to take with respect to the more serious matters. We are in the process of getting a contractor to do an estimate of the damages before removing the subjects. My husband and I can't thank David enough for his high level of attention to detail and expertise.

We will definitely choose David as our home inspector again in the future (buying or selling) and we'd be happy to refer him to anyone else.
