Ali Ban recommended Ian to us as a home inspector we could trust to do an expert job. She was absolutely right. Ian did a meticulous inspection of the entire house and then walked us through the home, pointing out not only the issues he found, but also made sure to explain where important features of the house were located (such as the main water valve coming in from the street) as well as the proper maintenance schedules for things like the water heater. He walked the roof, inspected and showed us the crawl spaces, recommended needed repairs and even inconspicuously marked which wall sockets were controlled by which switches! He was thorough and detailed, and also very good at communicating to us his findings both in person and in a written report which was full of pictures and explanations. I would highly recommend Ian to my friends and family!
