We Inspect Homes To Keep You & Your Family Safe
We started as a small inspection company because we loved doing building projects and found that some builders were skipping and cutting corners. We are very curious by nature with our training and experience and as such will inspect your property like investigators, and we will explain our findings as if we were speaking to a family member of ours.
Our mission
Educate and empower home buyers to be better owners through thoughtful consultation and detailed reporting.
Our Mandate
We want to live in a world where people can buy homes that match their expectations in reality. If you are buying a residence, a mansion, a family getaway or a flip property your sight should be clear with iOnSight property inspections.
Our vision
Help redefine the property inspection industry by providing an in-depth inspection in a profound and meaningful way.
Our Promise to you
Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult. Different inspectors have varying qualifications, equipment, reporting methods, and yes, different pricing. A quality home inspection requires experience, attention to detail and knowledge of building systems and standards. Ultimately a thorough inspection depends on the individual inspector’s own effort. If you hire Ionsight Property Inspectors to inspect your property, We guarantee we will inspect as if we were buying for my own family.
This We promise you.
Inspectors Promise
Our strength lies in our individuality. Our experience lies in our continued education. Our results are proven at the highest professional levels.
As a proud home inspector of iOnSight Home Inspections, I'm passionate about being a home inspector. Throughout my inspections, I strictly adhere to a comprehensive Residential Standards of Practice. This ensures a thorough examination of the visible and accessible aspects of the property, covering everything from the foundation to the roof. With a commitment to the latest tools and technology, including Professional House Inspection and Pre-Purchase Home Inspection. Moreover, I take pleasure in educating my clients about their home's functionality and maintenance, just as our Tips for Homebuyers Book, provided by iOnSight Home Inspections, guides them towards informed decisions.

Quality Inspections, not quantity
We have made quality inspections our habit. It’s not something that we just strive for – we live by this principle every day. We take the time to investigate and get to know a property as if we need to move in ourselves! Using high quality technical measurements to quantify and qualify our findings brings building science to each report and each property.
