10/10

My home had concrete roofing tiles that required the services of a specialist and we were referred to Crucial. We relied on Crucial on several occasions to diagnose and repair leaks from our roof that suffered from installation deficiencies that we learned about later on. Besides repairing leaky tiles, we used Crucial to resolve a leaky skylight and install a vent. Each of these jobs were completed professionally and with high quality as evidenced by the photos that Greg provides afterward. I can confidently recommend Crucial for concrete roof tile service.

I remember how obsessed I became about reading reviews before buying my first car. While I might spend 1-2 hours a day in my car for the several years that I own that car, I will spend over 12 hours a day in my home that I will possibly own for decades. Especially in the Lower Mainland where homes cost many, many times more than a car, I think it is sensible to hire THE Home Inspection Co to perform a thorough inspection before you take the plunge. Ted will methodically walk you through the home and identify what's good and what's bad over the course of several hours. You will then receive a detailed report with colour photos describing any defects and their severity so that you will feel comfortable moving ahead or not. With the help of THE Home Inspection Co, I was able to avoid purchasing a home that would have brought me years of trouble. I highly recommend this company.

Hi BJ,
Yes that was a interesting inspection; there were many features of outstanding appeal, fortunately that's not how I process what is actually going on with the house. What is behind all the nice, nice, nice? With many years of renovation and construction to inform my observations; in the final analysis we managed to sort out all the anomalies and histories of previous renovations, no permits, additions and Fudging. Yes that house would've been a life of hurt.
Often times the people who make alterations to their home have enjoyed the fruits of their thrift and ignorance but by the time they go to sell the sum of these improvements are often ready to self-destruct. Yes they still look good but it's a balanced act that is held together by routine, faith and bailing wire.
We can do way better!!
Happy trails.... Ted
