1st Time Home Buyer

George and Larry are a great team. They worked very well an efficiently together. Having two sets of eyes inspecting my potential new home was very comforting. The professionalism with which Home Sweet Home Inspections operates their business is top notch. As a woman, and a handy one at that, I am used to how condescending some contractors can be towards women. George and Larry were definately not in this category. Their explanations and recommendations were communicated perfectly. My Realtor was impressed as well. We will both be recommending Home Sweet Home Inspections to friend and clients. Thank you guys for taking some of the stress of home buying off of my shoulders.

Hi Christy,
I want to thank yor for the very, very positive feedback! Larry and I take great pride in what we do and try and work well together covering every square inch of a home. I hope that you were able to negotiate and have all of the rusted galvanized pipping along with the other plumbing issues covered by the seller of that home. It was a pleasure working for you! If you need me to come back and rein spect the work after its complete please call me for a complimentary revisit.

Kudo's to George for the wonderful, professional job. He was able to perform the inspection on a days notice.... on a holiday weekend. His thorough, expertise manner placed us at ease. Was happy to answer the many questions we had with expert advice and patience. The photo documentary will allow us to perform the minor fixes at our own pace.

Thanks again!

Home inspection

True professionals, well organized while showing real expertise. They were honest and affordable, going above and beyond with follow-up email (same day) complete with detailed photos (I received 50-ish) and general sound advice. They've put this first-time home buyer at ease, buying an older home. Highly recommended!

Hi Sara,
Thanks for the great review! After getting your email this morning I am sincerely thrilled that my thermal imaging camera found all the moisture in the walls. I'm glad you've already taken our advise and had a restoration company open up the walls as indicated and found the mould!! You are one step closer to a healthier home!!

All the best for your family!

Home Inspection

We needed a house inspection done on the weekend in short notice so we called Home Sweet Home and found George Mendes. George agreed to meet us at the house on Sunday morning. He showed up on time and did his work in a professional manner, politely explaining the process to us, answering our questions and writing a thorough and comprehensive report. I highly recommend George to anyone seeking a home inspection. Thank you George for helping us and making it an enjoyable experience. Richard and Josefina

George was punctual and very professional. He was thorough and explained or showed the things that needed attention. The price was reasonable for the time and attention he spent in inspecting the property. I would recommend him highly to anyone as he made us feel comfortable with the decision in purchasing our home.
