Your story!

Very happy with the thorough 52 page report. I have no hesitation in recommending Steven Hughes for your home inspection needs.

I highly recommend Steven if you are in need of a house inspection. He was thorough, very knowledgeable of the building codes, he clarified the issues he found and suggested ways to address them when we talked after his inspection. His written report was detailed and easy to understand.

Steven was very thorough with his review and findings. I appreciated his willingness to accommodate my timelines as I was coming from out of town. I am very confident that we will have limited surprises in our new home thanks to Steven’s inspection. Thank you!

thorough and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Steve.

Vancouver Island Hughes Home Inspection Services provides outstanding service with a well laid out, thorough and easy to understand report. Steven was in constant communication from the time I engaged his services. He is friendly, accommodating, well spoken and knowledgeable. The report laid out information on 8 major areas of the structure and appliances. The accompanying photos assisted in interpreting the report text. The "Recommendations" section provided a great overview on what repairs may be required immediately, what should be monitored and what to look for in the future. Also included in the report were pictorial representations of what may cause damage and why. Another inclusion in the Inspection was the "Recall Check". This report checked all the appliances in the structure against a recall list. Fantastic bonus! Will definitely use this service again and refer Hughes Home Inspection to my friends! Thanks Steven! Well done!

Steven was professional and went above and beyond in handling arising business vis-a-vis asbestos testing and follow-up in a very short period. Report was thorough and well documented with pictures and suggestions on what needed to be done.

Awesome job by Steve, he covered everything we needed him to and more, would highly for any prospective house buyer.

Everything went well. The inspector was on time and was thorough and got the report to me in a timely manner. The fees were in line with others. I have no problem recommending this company.

My husband and I were looking for our retirement home in Parksville. We found what we thought was a good fit, but the home needed extensive cosmetic renovations. Having bought a home once before without an inspection we had learned our lesson, so we retained the services of Steven Hughes. Steven did a walk though with us and addressed our immediate concerns. However, after receiving and reviewing Steven's very comprehensive report, we quickly realized we had bitten off more than we could chew and therefore did not proceed with the sale. We subsequently found another home and again had Steven attend for an inspection. After receiving his report, my husband and I are now confident that we have found our retirement home and can rest easy, with no surprises. We found Steven to be very professional, approachable and timely in his reporting. We would recommend his services without reservation.

To whom it may concern:.. recently completed a detailed home inspection service from Vancouver Island Hughs Home Inspection Service. On time, on budget and very comprehensive. Steven was very thorough, thoughtful and diligent. The walk through at inspection’s end was invaluable as Steven is very patient in explaining his observations and notes so that you truly understand what he is trying to convey… not just a quick gloss over. Happy to highly recommend this company‘s service. If you’re fortunate enough to utilize this inspection service you will not be disappointed. Charlie Halkett

Steven was quick, professional and through. He took the time to address and answer any and all questions I had about the inspection and even offer solutions when anything came up. Overall my experience was suburb. Thanks Steven!

It was a pleasure to have Steve Hughes complete our Home Inspection. His calm demeanor and comprehensive advice has been invaluable as we work through our house purchase and documentation provided is excellent. We would highly recommend his service.

Steven did a great job on short notice inspecting a house for us. He has a well laid out report, that's actionable and easy to understand. He stuck around (in spite of us being delayed) to give us a tour of what he had found in the inspection, which was very helpful.

Steven Hughes' house inspection was thorough and well detailed. He took time to explained what needed to be done and recommended how to address the situations. Definitely recommend.

Steven inspected my business and did a great job. He was easy to deal with, answered all of my many questions, and explained the results of the air quality tests in easy to understand formats. His report is extensive and informative. Thanks for your help. Kleja

Like many people lately, I was unable to visit the home I was buying personally. Steven provided a comprehensive report in a very short turn around and even took the trouble to talk over its finer points with me. He answered several questions about the property and the recommendations that he had made. I was very satisfied with both the quality of his work, his professionalism, and speed of the completed report. I will be using his services for my next inspection as well.

We currently living in Surrey and are purchasing a house in Port Alberni. Stephen was recommended to us from our realtor and he was very quick to get the inspection done. He was very professional and pleasant . The inspection report was laid out well and easy to read. We would definitely use his services again if we buy another property.

Nice guy and knowledgeable. Explained issues gave recommendations where needed without referring to specific contractors. It showed me he was completely honest and independent of local reno businesses. I would use him again
