I was very pleased with Crest Home inspection. Peter was very thorough. He took the time to explain things to me I... didn't understand. The report was well done and in very good detail. The inspection was well worth the money and very affordable. I highly recommend Crest Home Inspections.read more

Peter was very quick to reply, super thorough and undoubtedly quite experienced. Answered all our questions and made us... feel comfortable with our next steps and asks of the Seller. Not to mention, he seems like a great guy; ask him about his journey across the North Atlantic!read more

Peter Harley from Crest Home Inspections did an excellent job with our home inspection. I had reached out to a few... inspectors to understand their home inspection process and received varied responses. Peter talked with me at length prior to scheduling the inspection and took time to answer all my questions and concerns upfront. He was quick to respond even before I had requested his services. He also assured me that in order to not rush himself with the inspection he schedules only 1 inspection per day.On the day of the inspection Peter arrived on time ~ 9.30am. I had planned on being present for the inspection and go along with him. Peter finished his inspection at 3.30pm- a full 6 hours. He took his sweet time and also explained/showed things in the home that I need to be careful about in the future. I accompanied him into the attic, crawlspace, porch and other locations. Along the way he took multiple pictures and also videos to highlight the issues on his report. He also has a Thermal Imaging camera that will show problems that may not be quickly visible via naked eye, and this service was for no additional charge.Peter's inspection report was clear to read and understand. He uses an online software tool that lets you access the home inspection report. You can also download a PDF file and send it across. The online tool is quite intuitive to use.Overall getting the home inspected from Peter at Crest Home Inspections was a good experience and I would recommend using Peter's services to anyone.read more

I needed a home inspector at the last minute for an investor purchase. I have to say I was impressed! Peter was... extremely responsive; he got back to me right away, I was able to book my inspection immediately on his website. On the day of the inspection he was on time, very professional, courteous and best of all I got my inspection report the same day. I will definitely be referring him to anyone that needs a home inspection.read more

I can assure my clients of the same ethics and standards that highlighted my construction career.I look forward to performing your next inspection.
Peter is professional and exceptionally reliable. He always provides same day reporting.
We needed a home inspection for our home sale. Peter was very professional and thorough. He provided us a detailed report that enabled us to get our house sold quick.
Peter doesn't just do home inspections, he does mold, pools and more, which was helpful when we were looking to purchase a fixer home.
