Haystack Home Inspections reviews (499)

Hi A&J, It great to meet the two of you and I am happy to hear your builder is working with you to fix the deficiencies identified during the inspection. Not all builders are created equal. In my experience with new builds the worse the build the more likely the builder is to defend their work then fix it. When builders are willing to work with you it usually says speaks to their concern for their clients and the quality of the work they produce. Good luck with your new North Vancouver home and feel free to get in touch with any of your questions. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Jose, Thanks for your thoughts. As you know I am not really a boat guy. That said it is a nice change of pace for a ride to an inspection whether it is in sunshine or blowing snow, preferably sunshine. The properties are always interesting as they are a little different from the day in and out of city living. Good luck with your venture and I was glad I could help. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Meagan, Thanks for hiring Haystack Home Inspections and leaving such a nice review. I want to talk briefly about a subject you touched on in your first sentence, realtor recommended inspectors. This is a touchy subject for many people in the real estate and inspection community because of the possibility of conflict of interest. Will the inspector have your best interests at heart or the interests of the referring agent. Frankly it comes down to do you trust your real estate agent. If you don't trust your agents recommendations maybe you shouldn't be working with them to begin with. Experienced realtors have worked in conjunction with numerous inspectors and often make suggestions because of the good or bad experiences of their past clients. Be aware agents should always be passing along a number of inspectors, normally three or more. I would also suggest that you do a little research of your own on the inspectors they recommend and maybe a few more for good measure. Pick the inspector you feel comfortable with, in the end you will likely be living with your decision for quite some time. Thanks again for your thoughts and bringing an important subject to light. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Kenny, I look forward to helping your family and friends. It's true sometimes an inspection may take a little longer than expected. This is just part of the job and you will never be expected to pay more for something I failed to plan for. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

Hi Lukas, So happy we could help with your Vancouver condo inspection. It is so important for clients like yourself to get a true understanding about the building they are potentially buying into. With some buildings still holding out on getting up to date depreciation and engineering reports it becomes that much more important. Thanks for sharing you experience with Haystack Home Inspections. Sincerely, Chris Thompson
