A detailed and thorough home inspection by a qualified, objective professional dispels buyer's anxiety, especially for those who have little experience in the construction industry. It's money well-invested and gives the buyer an honest, unbiased report before they purchase.  To know what you're buying before you own will give you peace of mind during this difficult process.
SKILL
Our certified home inspectors must complete a comprehensive, intensive course which includes both classroom instruction and field training along with written examinations upon completion. Our inspectors exceed industry standards.
PEACE OF MIND
Our inspectors are all highly trained and will help you gather the information you require to make your decision. You are encouraged to attend the inspection while following health guidelines surrounding Covid-19; this allows you to become familiar with the home and learn home maintenance tricks and tips to help you maintain your investment.

The Perfect Home

The perfect home does not exist. This is an important consideration when purchasing a home and arranging for an inspection. Fortunately, many of the problems can be fairly minor and they are all repairable. Some minor problems you may be able to live with, however there are situations which could be financially disastrous. It is important for you to be aware of the problems so that you can make an informed decision when purchasing a home.

What to Expect

​​A home inspection is a non-invasive, visual observation of the condition of the property on the day of the inspection, and can include such tools as moisture meters, drones, video scopes, gas meters, electrical instruments, infrared cameras, and temperature sensors.

​The average home inspection will take between 2 to 3 hours to complete. It is highly recommended to follow the home inspector during the inspection, as this is an invaluable educational experience to learn about the various aspects and systems of the house.

We are aware that in many real estate transactions time can make a difference. The design of our system enables you to receive your inspection report immediately upon completion of the inspection to avoid any delays.

Michael Moore CPI
Certified Home Inspector
Born and raised in Nova Scotia, Michael spent over 15 years in the trades industry in various forms. He found although he enjoyed project management and estimating, most of all he enjoyed being hands on at the work site with clients, assisting them in achieving their visions and goals.
Knowing that he wanted to try something new, and with his passion for working with people, Michael entered the insurance industry and received his full Canadian Accredited Insurance Broker degree. He soon found himself inspecting homes as an insurance broker and advising his clients on what insurance companies are looking for when they insure their homes.
Attention to detail is critical in the insurance profession so it was a natural fit when he saw an opportunity to be a part of the Canadian Residential Inspection Services family as a Franchisee in the Halifax location.
