    Pre-purchase Home Inspection

    I had met Alan G. twice previously through professional networking events over the last 2 years. He was in leadership roles then and still is today. When I found his company on Homestars and all the favourable reviews, it made it easier for me to decide to hire him. Alan arrived early for my inspection - I arrived a few minutes late - and upon my arrival proceeded to point out all the major and minor concerns he found on the outside of the house. Although I was told the house was built in 1980, he pegged it at being built in the late 60s to early 70s. We'd soon find out who was right and who was wrong. We then moved inside to the basement and worked our way - room by room, floor by floor - up to the attic. Every step of the way, Alan basically gave me a live narrative - good, bad and ugly - of the house I was considering purchasing as he took pictures of every concern along the way. Using a reference book (for furnaces, I assume) Alan was able to tell me the exact year the furnace was built - 1974! He was correct about the age of the house. He also had a nifty moisture meter that allowed him to detect the presence of moisture behind some drywall that looked recently patched over. To top it all off, Alan accommodated our tight deadline to remove our inspection condition and delivered our completed report within just a few hours. I can't say that he'd do this for everyone, but it was very much appreciated.

    Pre-purchase home inspection

    I recently purchased a roughly 100 year old house in Toronto and my purchase was conditional upon a home inspection. I contacted Alan from AllMax Home Inspection and was able to quickly schedule a time for him to come in. He was very punctual and professional. He explained everything to me and I felt like I got a good understanding of the issues we were facing with this older house and what needed to happen to remedy them. He produced a great and very thorough report, including detailed photographs. Top-notch service!

    home inspection on an older home

    Alan G. did home inspection on a home in uptown Toronto that we ended up purchasing. It is an older but renovated home. Alan was very professional, patient, knowledgable, and approachable. I would recommend him for anyone who is looking for a good inspector.

    Mold testing (and a little home advice on the side)

    We had Alan test certain areas of our house for mold after noticing water damage and a funky smell......he came right away and quickly reported the lab results to us. The machine took a few minutes to gather air samples from each room and while we waited Alan allowed us to pick his brain regarding issues with our home (recorded in our home inspection done by someone else). He was respectful of the home inspector's report and provided a lot more detail! I also found his customer service (follow up phone calls, short time to respond to my messages, considerate messages related to my worry about the mold levels, etc.) was excellent.

    Pre-Purchase Inspection

    We were extremely happy with the service provided by Allmax. We were able to get an appointment right away and Alan sent Michael Hoy to do a pre-purchase home inspection for us. Michael was friendly and professional and he took the time to walk us through the house and explain everything to us. He patiently answered all of our questions. We were also happy with the very thorough report Allmax gave us with pictures and recommendations. We can keep the report for years as a reference guide. We highly recommend Allmax.

    Pre Delivery Inspection

    I went with AllMax for a PDI on a new home based on all the positive reviews. Alan, the home inspector was very nice and patient during the entire inspection. He went through everything and a day compiled an extensive list of work the builder needs to address. Alan saved me a lot of time and worries. I have already reconmended him to my new neighboors who are looking for someone to do there 30 day inspection and I will reconmend them to anyone who needs a home inspection. Thanks for all your help!!!!

    My Pleasure. I was happy to help and wish you the best with the builder. Alan

    Home Inspection

    Alan did a very thorough job on our home inspection. He is very detailed, extremely knowledgable and informative, which are qualities that we really value as new home owners. We found his service so great that this is actually the second time we have used him and we have also recommended him to 2 other people including my mother- which is a referral I would only give if the inspector was trust worthy. The first time I wanted to use a home inspector for our 30 day deficiency list, my husband was very reluctant and thought it would be a waste of money and time. After a rave review from a coworker, we gave Alan a call. Now my husband and I will never go without a home inspection, it was worth every penny! Alan is great at what he does, and teaches you things the average home owner would never otherwise know!

    I am happy to have converted you guys into believers :) At the very least the inspection will open your eyes to understanding the home better and learning about proper maintenance required. Congrats on your new place and I wish you guys all the best. Alan

    Pre-Delivery Home Inspection

    Alan is very pofessional and thorough in inspecting the property. He helped us navigate the inspection process and completed all the paperwork needed to ensure proper documentation was in hand for Tarion Warranty and the builder. Very happy with the service and expertise.
