    Home Inspection

    The home inspection was thorough, showed good knowledge of historical construction methods and typical issues, as well as a solid, methodical inspection technique that revealed several hidden major issues and risks. I would unhesitatingly recommend this inspector to anyone.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks for the review Chris. We had some fun in that small town house inspection. I think I have inspected over 10% of the homes there now!

    Inspection saved me a headache

    DHI did a very thorough inspection of the outside of the house first and then we moved to the inside for more detailed investigations. The final result was that we found some major issues which were not obvious and caused me to back out of the deal. We did love the house. Second house I hired him back again and we had the same thorough inspection. This time there was nothing major found that could not be solved with a bit of negotiation with the seller. The difference negotiated will go directly to the repair of the issues. So I spent $1000 but likely saved many times that. Plus I got to walk around with the inspector and learned what to look for. Before my own home is listed I have been repairing many of those questionable issues that have been identified on the other houses.

    Answer from pro:

    It was a pleasure working with you in Olds. They are always challenging inspections when its a Permanent Wood Foundation. Glad I could help you find one that worked for you.

    Best Equipped Home Inspection

    I conducted a few home inspections by another company for myself and helping my friends. Due to availability of the other company, I hired Diamond House Inspection this time. I am so glad that I made the right choice. Egbert is so well equipped, and was able to put his equipment all in good use. He worked solid 5 hours to cover all the important aspects of the inspection, and further spent 30 minutes to go through the findings with us. Due to the urgent nature of this real estate transaction, he worked hard to deliver a detailed report on the same day. Diamond House Inspection will be my first choice and I highly recommend this company.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks for the great review Eric. I think you guys got a house with lots of potential and not too many drawbacks. And I thank you for sharing my report with the seller...now they are hiring me to look at the property they want to buy! Let me know when the pool party is!

    Home inspection

    Extremely thorough and detailed inspection. He took the time to answer all of our questions and explain everything in tons of detail, I have never learned so much about a home during an inspection! Loved the jokes too :)

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Karen, sorry for the delay in thanking you for the review! I know I like to talk a lot, glad you found it useful. Parts of the inspection process can be a little boring, and real estate transactions can be a little stressful so I like to add a little humour.... okay... a lot of humour. :D

    Absolutely Excellent Home Inspection

    I have not had a lot of home inspections, but I knew right off the bat that Diamond Home Inspection was going to be great, as he came highly recommended. He went through everything with me, wasn't rushed at all, in fact, he was very thorough and sent a very detailed report afterwards. Egbert's inspection is worth every penny and highly recommended!

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks Kari. I think you'll find a house in Inglewood that fits your needs. Glad we found the problems we didn't and you avoided ugly surprises down the road.

    Home Inspection

    Egbert has been recommended to me by my realtor in a recent home inspection. This referral is well deserved and I can recommend Egbert to anyone that wants to use his services. You can guarantee that the inspection will be through and any concerns will be answered. I would add that you have a good stock of corny jokes in your repertoire.

    Answer from pro:

    Corny? I suppose I deserved that! Glad I could help make the process less boring. Let me know when the open house in Okotoks is!

    Hands down the BEST home inspection we have had

    Having had experience with 4 separate home inspectors in less than 5 years we have finally found a keeper and someone who we would highly recommend to anyone. Moving is a stressful time as is one year inspections (which is why we recently used Diamond Home Inspection) and you need someone you can trust and someone who genuinely cares about your investment as if it was their own. Egbert is your guy! He came prepared with all the tools and gadgets to do a thorough inspection, and even investigated items further that were outside his scope. We have a concerns with our front portico not being structural sound and Egbert took all steps he could to investigate and to prepare us in addressing our builder. He is thorough!!!! What more could you ask for? The price is fair, his company is pleasant, he is extremely knowledgeable, answers your questions and prepares you for the next step in your investment. RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND! RECOMMEND!

    Answer from pro:

    M'Liss. So glad you took the time to write a review. Always glad to buttress a homeowner who has problems. I suspect you'll be in this home for a while, but call me for the next one.

    House Inspection

    The job was done professional and with direct input from Edgert. I recommend him to all that will want to use him for a home inspection. You can use him in confidence.

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks for the review. I think you learned a lot during the first inspection as the second home had so much less stuff to find! Enjoy the home and Okotoks!

    House Inspection

    Egbert is a great inspector, professional and friendly. He pointed out number of items needed to be fixed or improve. I really appreciated that he spent time to explain those items in details. Thanks for the great report too. Will recommend Diamond Home Inspection!

    Answer from pro:

    Thanks Linda. Always interesting to do revenue properties, especially when the tenants are so co-operative. I think you found a good one, I look forward to helping you again in the future.
