    Home Inspection

    Requested a home inspection for a home we had recently offered on. Chris came out and did a very thorough inspection that led us to decide against that house. We subsequently offered on a second home and had him come buy to inspect. Again he was thorough and advised us on all the intricacies of the home. He walked us through all the concern points including the attic and garage. His report was thorough and he reviewed it with us again upon completion. I would recommend Chris for his straight forward demeanour and honest perception on what he sees and finds.

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Gil, Straight forward and honest are two qualities everyone should be looking for in a home inspector so thanks for characterizing me that way. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

    Remote Investment Property

    My boyfriend and I are located in Toronto and we were buying an investment property in Surrey. As we weren't planning on visiting the unit, we needed someone experienced, reliable, and who has great communication. Chris was absolutely fantastic. The report was very easy to read and understand, and the whole process was so smooth from scheduling to after-inspection follow-up. He didn't let us slip off the track, and kept us informed. We sincerely appreciate it. It was great.

    Answer from pro:

    Hi T.O., While we talk about first time buyers a lot helping experienced investors is also something we do at Haystack Home Inspections. Many clients just aren't able to be there at the time of sale. While Toronto is a pretty good distance away Thailand is the most remote clients to date. I am glad to hear that our style of report was conducive to helping you purchase with confidence, having never seen the Surrey condo. I hope you find great tenants. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

    Home Inspection

    Chris Thompson was very professional, personal and informative in my quest to finding my new home. He took the time and care to explain how to read the home inspection documents so that I fully understood what I was purchasing. This was great comfort to me since this was the first time I have purchased a home on my own. I wouldn't hesitate hiring Chris again for another home inspection if I find myself needing one in the future. Thanks Chris for helping me feel safe and comfortable with my purchase. Sincerely Shannon Penner-Hunt

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Shannon, I glad you felt safe and comfortable through the process. It was pleasure helping you to decide on what was right for you. Good luck with your town-home and I look forward to helping with any questions you may have after you move in. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

    first time home buyer inspection

    As a first time home buyer with no experience with this process I was very nervous and uneducated. Chris was very helpful with explaining everything in detail to help me have a better understanding. The inspection report was thorough and was easy to distinguish.

    Answer from pro:

    Hi Kelsey, Helping nervous, uneducated, first time buyers is what Haystack Home Inspections is all about. Thanks for sharing. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

    Home Inspection for Burnaby Apartment

    I'm very happy with the service Chris provided. I was able to schedule my home inspection with him on very short notice and he was accommodating. Chris took his time to inspect every tiny details of the place I was going to purchase and provided a thorough report the very next morning. He is professional and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

    Answer from pro:

    Mickey, Thanks for sharing your Burnaby condo purchasing experience. We do perform short notice inspection. We find it difficult to turn client because of the high standards we set for ourselves. We fear the quality of the inspection they may receive if we are unable to help. Thanks again. Sincerely, Chris Thompson

    New apartment inspection

    I had my new apartment inspected before I was in a year so if the builder has to fix something it was fixed before the one year warranty was up. Glad I did I missed somethings and the builder is fixing them before the year is up now. I was given some Ideas on how to keep my place safer as well and what to look for in the future as well as the building ages

    Answer from pro:

    Hi, It is nice to hear you were able to take advantage of your one year warranty and get the builder to do some repairs for free. Continue you to enjoy your new North Vancouver condominium. Sincerely, Chris Thompson
