I highly recommend David and wish him success in his business.

My husband and I used Gary and his services twice, and will be using him again on our next home…read morepurchase! Unfortunately the first home we had Gary inspect we did not purchase but we made this decision based on Gary's inspection services of the home. His inspection likely saved us $50,000 + and a head-ache of problems with this particular home. We enjoyed his approach and extreme attention to detail within the report / follow-up explanation that we used him for the second home we set out to purchase. His second report was just as fantastic as the first! Gary really takes his time yet is super efficient and delivered the report to us within minutes of finishing the in person inspection. He spent another hour or so meeting with us in person to explain every detail and made recommendations on how to address each of the items he had pointed out as potential fixes. We would recommend Gary to any of our friends and family!! Great price, great service and overall super pleasant person to do business with. Thank you Gary!!!

Flushed toilets, ran bathtubs, checked all visible outlets for electrical power, and properly wired outlets (of which many were incorrectly wired), checked the electrical panel innards, garage door opener, lights in entire house. Gary got up on the roof (as he saw it safe to do so), inspected it, took pictures. Gary got up into the attic, and checked the underside of the roof, and everything else up there. did i forgot anything?..yes i did..did Gary?..NO HE DIDN'T !

At the recommendation of our real estate agent, we utilized the services of Bloodhound Home…read moreInspectors to inspect a home that we had made an offer on. Our entire experience has been exceptional! All communication has been super-fast, both prior to and after inspection. We communicated mostly through email, and response time was within minutes! Though not required, we decided to be present though the entire inspection. James was on-site early, very friendly, and extremely helpful in answering all our questions during the inspection. He was clearly thorough and observant with his inspection. And agile too! He was up on the roof of the four-story house, in the rain, without batting an eye. And he navigated the crawl space and attic with ease. He pointed out several things as he was going through the house, and was very patient with our questions. After the inspection, our minds were completely at ease. While we were expecting the report the following day, we actually received it within hours after the inspection. The report was very thorough and professional. He also sent along the full 261 pictures he had taken. After inspecting the photos we noticed a bit of insulation that looked a bit dark, and were worried it might be mold. We talked to James about the photo and our concerns. Just to be certain it wasn't mold, he returned to the house, removed the insulation, and inspected closely (sending additional photos) showing that it had just been some dirt. Truly above and beyond all expectations! We're now buying our home worry free!

I hired Bloodhound Home Inspectors on the recommendation of my realtor during the recent purchase…read moreof my future new home on Salt Spring Island. She said they were the best and honestly, I could not have been better served. James the owner came over from Victoria to conduct the home inspection himself. He was prompt and professional and made himself available to answer all my questions on site as the inspection progressed. This was followed by a thorough and comprehensive report three days later as promised, with photographs and clear assessments of existing issues as well as potential future ones to keep an eye on. But the best part was not just James' clear competency but the sense of personal integrity and care that he took. This allowed me to feel confident that what I was seeing was really going to be what I was getting. Since I was buying a property that I only got to see a few times and in a different country than where I currently live, this gave me a lot of invaluable peace of mind. Great recommendation from my realtor!
