Recently, we had the immense pleasure of working with Darren from Bent Nails Inspection Service for our home inspection, and it has been an exceptional experience. From the very beginning, Darren was thorough and professional. He took more than two hours inspecting our property from top to bottom, making sure that no stone was left unturned. Darren's meticulous nature and passion for what he does were evident in every minute spent inspecting our home. His extensive knowledge was incredible. From the foundation to the roof, Darren was able to identify the potential issues and explain them to us in simple, easy-to-understand language. His honesty was refreshing - he did not rush to finish or hide any potential problems but pointed out everything he observed, including both strengths and areas that might need future attention. One of the most striking aspects of Darren's inspection service was his unwavering attention to detail. He took the time to look into each nook and corner of our home, giving us a comprehensive and insightful overview. He was incredibly respectful of our home and treated it as if it were his own, maintaining the utmost cleanliness and respect throughout the process. Moreover, the report provided by Bent Nails Inspection Service was impressively detailed and easily understandable. Darren not only recorded his observations but also provided actionable recommendations. His suggestions were useful, cost-effective, and tailored to our unique situation. Customer service is an area where Bent Nails Inspection truly shines. Darren was more than happy to answer our questions, even the ones we thought were too trivial. His patience and understanding made the whole process less daunting and more enlightening. In conclusion, Darren's experience, honesty, and professionalism have left us extremely satisfied with the services provided by Bent Nails Inspection Service. It was not just an inspection but an informative session that made us more aware of our home's condition and what we can do to maintain it in the long run. We wholeheartedly recommend Bent Nails Inspection Service to anyone in need of a comprehensive, honest, and professional home inspection. Darren's dedication and expertise are unparalleled, and we're confident you'll be just as pleased with his services as we are.

Darren McClurg is a truly professional and reliable home inspector who was able to provide a thorough service during the home inspection. His deep knowledge of the critical areas that should be examined during a home inspection (i.e structural elements, safety items, grounds, exterior, roof attic, plumbing, appliances, electrical system heating and cooling systems, basement, garage, and insulation) provided us with an opportunity to make an informed decision on the quality of home we were purchasing. He was reliable, even on short notice, to assist us with a comprehensive inspection and providing tips on how to take care of maintenance required and repairs, if any, for our home so we can keep it in excellent condition. Once the inspection was complete, Darren was able to provide us with a digital copy of the inspection report by the end of the day. We are very grateful for his services.

I have been purchasing three houses from different builders so far, and took the first time to bring a professional inspector for 1 year Tarion Warranty of one brand new house. Darren is a very professional home inspector showing me very kind explanations and prompt responses for my questions. He is offering a reasonable cost for inspection service and the most professional and comprehensive report. While working with him, I have realized the main reason that people (home owner or prospective buyers no matter of the age of your houses) need a inspector, even for the brand-new houses these days are required to go through more diligently. I am willing to recall him for the next house sooner, and believe that Darren's experiences in the business will allow me to learn about fundamental knowledges on a home's inspection as well as maintenance in a good way. Thanks Darren. See you again.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Darren for a home inspection, and I couldn't be more pleased with the service. From the moment Darren arrived, his professionalism and expertise were evident. He conducted a thorough and detailed inspection, leaving no stone unturned. What impressed me most was Darren's ability to explain complex issues in an understandable way, ensuring that I was fully informed about the condition of the property. His report was comprehensive, well-organized, and delivered promptly. Darren's dedication to his work and his clients is truly commendable. I highly recommend Darren to anyone in need of a reliable and skilled home inspector. He exceeded all my expectations and provided peace of mind in my home-buying journey. Thank you, Darren, for your exceptional service!

I hired Darren from Bent Nails Home Inspection to inspect a house I was thinking of buying. I was very satisfied with his service and professionalism. He was punctual, friendly, and knowledgeable and very thorough. He inspected every part of the house, from the electrical system to the plumbing, and used infrared imaging to detect any hidden issues. He explained everything to me in a clear and honest way, and gave me a detailed report with photos and recommendations. He also answered all my questions and gave me some helpful tips on how to maintain the house. I would highly recommend Darren from Bent Nails Home Inspection to anyone looking for a thorough and reliable home inspector. He is worth every penny!

On very short notice, our real estate agent arranged to have Darren inspect a 20 year old home we were contemplating purchasing. Even though there was a very short time (a little over an hour) to conduct the inspection, we were impressed with all aspects of the professional service that Darren provided. Even with the time limitations, he was able to focus on the key issues we needed him to look at in order to make a decision. He knows his stuff and can explain the deficiencies and remediation alternatives so that it can be understood by all. Darren's friendly and outgoing personality also makes this a pleasant experience. We highly recommend Bent Nails Home Inspection.

We had our home inspection yesterday through Bent Nails. My wife and I was very happy with Darren's service. He was very professional and provided much insight into our home along with going above and beyond with explaining how the ventilation works and what needs to be serviced and when. He was very thorough with the home inspection and captured a lost of items and met our expectations. I would highly recommend his services to anyone who is looking. The report Darren sent back to us was very detailed with pictures and not a single item discussed verbally was missed on his report. I have already referred your services to our neighbor!

We had a very lovely experience with Darren. He was available to come inspect our home over the weekend which was very convenient to our schedule. He did a thorough inspection and provided much detail throughout his inspection so we could properly understand. Very professional, polite, and friendly. It’s hard to come across good service these days but I can say we were more than satisfied and he exceeded our expectations. He provided our report the same evening which we were not expecting but was very appreciative of that too. Thank you once again Darren. Highly recommend!

My wife and I hired Bent Nails for a home inspection after moving into our newly built home and it was a great decision! Darren is extremely knowledgeable, honest and doesn’t mince words regarding issues, deficiencies, builder shortcuts, etc. He conducted a thorough outdoor and indoor inspection of our home and went through everything with us, floor by floor, to make sure we understood and were aware of everything. I would strongly recommend Bent Nails to anyone needing a home inspection, as we have nothing but positive things to say about our experience with Darren.

Bent Nails really helped us understand the condition of a house we were considering. Darren provided a detailed report outlining what was serviceable, what needed repair - and how urgently. He even provided approximations for the durability of different features, like roof and windows. We really appreciated the quick turnaround on the inspection report, and the care with which Darren handled our questions. I would strongly recommend Bent Nails and Darren to friends and family.

Darren provided excellent service and a very detailed report. When possible he walked me through issues he found so that as a home owner I could get a better understanding of why something was incorrect. He also produced a list of his recommendations to protect the longevity of my home outside of the actual inspection. Darren was extremely responsive, and professional. I would and have recommended his services to friends and family.

Darren is definitely the best inspector I have ever dealt with, I wish I could give him 6 stars. The inspection was not rushed, very detailed, and the report includes absolutely everything! Darren is obviously very knowledgeable having worked in the construction industry. Knows how builders operate, shortcuts and all. I would highly recommend Darren hands down. Thank you for a job well done and for your professionalism.

If we could give six stars, we would! Darren was incredibly thorough with our home inspection, kind in answering all of our questions, and brought a great energy throughout the process. You can tell he has been doing this for a long time, and has so much knowledge and wisdom to share. He was also patient in answering our questions as new homebuyers, and that was greatly appreciated. Thanks a million, Darren!!

Darren was recommended to me by my real estate agent, Jeff Matheson. Darren did a very detailed, thorough inspection of the condo we had conditionally bought. He offered detailed explanations of each area where he saw something can be improved, better maintained, or where we can get more life out of appliances, etc. He is very courteous, polite, and has extensive knowledge. I highly recommend him.

I had concerns about the quality of craftsmanship of my new build home. I hired Darren after my neighbor referred me & recommended getting a home inspector for my 30 day inspection. Thank god I did because he found things I'd never have known to look at. He was professional & comes from the industry as his background. I highly recommend Bent Nails Thanks again, Darren!

I recommend Darren for all new homeowners because he is owner friendly and very detailed oriented in terms of inspecting your home for deficiencies. He has a vast experience and knows the builder deficiencies beforehand. He has tremendous knowledge and shares his wisdom with his clients pretty well.

Hands down the best inspector in the Ottawa region.
