High Rated Home Inspector in Ajax

As a real estate agent, I have had the pleasure of working with many home inspectors when I first started, but once I met Dave who stood out from the rest, I decided I didn't need to call anyone else but him for all my clients.

Dave is a top notch home inspector and a true professional! I had a 1 day inspection clause on a property and Dave accommodated a request with under 24-hour notice.

Frequently Asked Questions

Home inspector clipboard brand sketch illustration

Do you inspect homes across Ajax neighbourhoods?

Yes. Dave covers Ajax from Pickering Beach and Lakeside through Downtown, Midtown, Westney Heights, Nottingham, Meadow Ridge, Audley South, and nearby streets. Send the address and he will confirm a time that fits.

Do you inspect Ajax condos and townhomes?

Yes. High-rise Condo visits focus on the unit systems you own. Townhome Condo visits cover the shared-wall scope that fits that property. If you are not sure which package fits, ask when you book at (905) 409-0498.

What is a home inspection and why do I need one?

A home inspection is a non-invasive visual examination of a property’s readily accessible components, designed to identify deficiencies and maintenance needs for the buyer.

Being as informed as possible about the property you’re purchasing is always in your best interest. Understanding the typical lifespans of its components - and how to maintain them properly - is an important part of that knowledge.

How much does it cost & how do I pay?

Home inspection fees vary widely depending on the property's size, location, type, age, and other factors. For the most accurate quote, please provide details about the property so we can discuss it directly.

Payments can be made by credit card, cheque, e-transfer, or cash.

How long is a home inspection?

The length of a home inspection typically ranges from 1 to 2 hours for smaller properties, but can extend longer for larger homes.

Do I need to be there?

While it isn't required that you be present during a home inspection, it is recommended for clarity and to answer any questions you may have about the property.

When will I get my report?

You'll receive your detailed electronic report on the same day as the inspection.
