"Jim Vriend is the home inspector that I put at the 'top of the list' whenever I recommend home inspectors to my clients. I have found Jim to be honest and friendly with my clients; and above all he is objective in his analysis/inspection of homes. His background experience in construction and home warranty insurance, along with his attention to detail ensure that he provides a thorough evaluation of every home. Jim evaluates each home carefully, finds the good with the bad, and reports honestly and objectively to his clients. Jim is a pleasure to work with; and, he is simply the best home inspector around!"

- Ian Hornby, Real Estate Specialist, HomeLife

"Jim Vriend is professional and thorough in his work. We have called on him for an inspection several times. Every time we have felt that he gave us an unbiased and sound evaluation of the house, pointing out the positive as well as the negative aspects without pressuring us to decide one way or the other. He is unhurried and takes time to answer your questions. We heartily recommend him."

"I've worked with many inspectors over the 16 years of my real estate service and am pleased to say Jim is a man of integrity, he has convenienced realtors and my clients have advised me that this is an inspector they felt comfortable with and trusted. I like an inspector that can make suggestions to clients on simple matters that can help and extend the life of the home they are planning on purchasing and this is something Jim does. He can work with clients to help them understand the working of some issues of thier new home and property for example air quality. Jim provides not only a thorough inspection, along with a written inspection report but a maintenance list that will help you care & maintain your home. Jim keeps up his education and brings his experience and teachings along with him to teach others. There is no doubt in my mind and my client's mind, Jim simply enjoys what he does because he truly cares about the people he works with and does an exceptional job for them."

"Jim Vriend conducted himself in a confident, competent manner. He was patient and punctual. Jim Vriend was very thorough, he looked at areas of the home that I did not even think would need to be inspected. His explanations were clear and explained in a 'construction way' for a homeowner. The report was nicely laid out, including pictures and illustrations and gave a good oveall picture of the house."

- Carter Niddrie
