Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

This is the 2nd time I called Vahn for a home inspection since I trusted him and knew his quality is very reliable. He takes the time to explain things and does a thorough and excellent job on inspections. His final report is exactly what I needed to understand the home - every time I need info for home insurance or anything else, I'm thankful for that detailed report!! I Highly recommend his services.

Thanks so much for posting your positive experience with me. I put a lot of effort into providing my clients with a comprehensive report with actionable recommendations. Glad I could help! Thanks again Sunil and don't hesitate to stay in touch via facebook or twitter.

Inspector came to look for a bat in the basement and couldn't find anything and left. Charged me for the services and wasn't helpful at all. Gave me vague answers about why they couldn't find anything and were hesitant to come back. Finally they returned to the home, rang the doorbell once and just left, eventhough I told them I'd be home. They didn't try calling or ringing the doorbell again, they just didn't want to provide any service but were happy taking payment. Won't use this service ever again.

Unfortunately the bat in question was not anywhere to be found in the house on the first visit. We did go back on a second visit for no charge ( this was an extra service) inspect inside for the bat. Before we took the job it was explained that there would be a charge weather the bat was found or not.
Thanks For the review!

Really good service, thorough inspection and everything was fully explained to me. Very educated and experienced inspector and would definitely recommend him to others that need a home inspection and want someone that you can trust.

Thanks for taking the time to post a review on my service Sunil. This is a great way to get the word out on my company.

Can I shed some light on my inspection reports? From what I've been told, the quality of my reports are another aspect of my service that impress my clients. It's a full colour, easy to read (no messy handwriting) digital report (PDF format) that contains photos, illustrations & diagrams to help explain issues better, my recommendation with time frames on any repairs/corrections/upgrades/etc, a home renovation cost guide as well as other supplementary documents specific to the inspection findings. There are active "live" links to additional detailed information when a term is highlighted in blue (I call it the home encyclopaedia containing hundreds of pages). I also have a summary page at the front with what I feel are the major issues.

This was my first home inspection although I've heard many stories from friends of their not so good experiences. I was initially worried that many items would be missed or overlooked or dismissed. Let me reassure you that Vahn was extremely thorough in his inspection. His approach is very professional, he fully inspected each aspect of the home, then carefully walked me through each and every part of house. Not only did I get a good concept of the quality of the home, but found the experience very educational since I was able to ask Vahn all kinds of questions which he was able to provide answers or suggestions for. I would highly recommend anyone buying a home to use his services, however, if you are trying to sell your home you may want to look elsewhere since Vahn is a very honest guy!!!

Thanks for the review Sunil. I'm glad you were pleased with my services and that you learned a few things along the way. Yes, some of those issues were eye openers for you I'm sure. But that's some of the "fun" that comes out of a home inspection....finding out what happened in the home from observing various clues. The home inspection process is a serious and important process, but that doesn't mean we can't have some fun while we're at it:) Enjoy the home Sunil and thanks for choosing Solex Group Professional Home Inspection!
