Dan came and did an inspection so we could be prepared for our upcoming 1 year warranty appointment with our builder. From the beginning, he was a pleasure to deal with. He spent 6 hours at our house and was incredibly thorough. He explained things along the way and I felt very confident in his knowledge and abilities. He also came with thermo camera to check areas that could be missed with just the naked eye and explained what it was showing. After our inspection, Dan provided us with a very comprehensive and easy to navigate report (over 100 pages with photos) the same day. I have given Dan’s info to a lot of people and highly recommend him for all inspection purposes. There is no one else to call, in my mind. He is the best! 

My family is in the process of buying an acreage in Wheatland County. Although we'd had many home inspections over the years in the city, we weren't sure where to turn for an inspection of a mobile and garage out on an acreage. Fortunately, we heard positive things about Dan Shoop and decided to give him a call. With only a few days notice, Dan was able to accommodate our busy schedule and perform a thorough inspection, which he  followed up promptly with a detailed and very readable and useful report. Dan made the whole inspection process a fun and educational experience. We would definitely recommend Dan to anyone looking to get a home inspection and have every intention of calling on Dan the next time we could benefit from his wealth of knowledge.

We were recommended a number of Inspectors by friends. After talking to all 3 we decided to go with Dan. Dan made sure we get the house inspected on our preferred day and time. He was very thorough and detailed oriented. He highlighted the main issues with the property and walked us through his findings. His inspection report was very detailed and easy to follow and understand. I will 100% recommend him to all friends and family.
We called him once again to re-inspect the fixes that were made and He made every effort to make sure that if there's problem with those fixes; he can find out in time. Overall I am extremely satisfied from his services.
Thanks Dan for going above and beyond our expectations. 

Just wanted to say thank you again for the excellent work you did for our new house. Your home inspection report (and we have had two previous home inspections on other properties) was by far the most comprehensive we have received. We particularly appreciate the pictures you provided showing where you recommend  work needs to be done and what it needs to rectify the problem. Would have no qualms about recommending you to anyone I know or for that matter even if I didn't know them because in my opinion your work was top notch.

Thank You

We were incredibly and pleasantly surprised by Dan. His ethic, thoroughness and professionalism really blew us away. He completed the most detailed inspection for us which included immediate action he recommended along with proper maintenance for areas which could present a problem if neglected. Dan was incredible and was certainly worth every penny. I would  recommend him and his service to anyone looking to purchase a home. We will certainly use him again.

 Great For New Home Warranty Review

After a great deal of research, we contacted Dan about doing an inspection of our home prior to our 1 year warranty appointment with  our builder.  While we had no real concerns about our house, but we felt it prudent to get an impartial inspection so we could report any problems or concerns to our builder.  We are so glad we had Dan come in!  His expert use of very technical and advanced equipment (especially his infrared camera and moisture meter) and vast knowledge of construction, allowed him to find several areas of concern for us to report to our builder.  He was incredibly thorough and knowledgeable and found things we had no idea were a problem, allowing us to preserve the value of our new home.  Dan spent many hours at our home and even came back once to update a finding.  We received a detailed, well organized and easy to understand report that we were able to show our builder and keep for our own records.  We would highly recommend Dan to anyone needing a home inspection for any reason! 

Dan was very professional and knowledgeable. He was open to our questions and we really appreciated the time he took to explain what he was looking for and why. We also liked the fact that he took a better part of the day to complete his inspection and was very thorough. He was quick to send us his final report. Although it was lengthy, it was easy to read, navigate (with the colour coding), and identify the more problem areas of the home. We felt we definitely got everything we needed and more out of the house inspection. We highly recommend D.Shoop & Associates and will use them again if we buy another house.

"Thank you for the home inspection you did on our potential investment  property. It let us know what we were in for before we made our decision. I  appreciated the in depth and straight forward report you provided, and it was  all done so quickly!  For  me this has been a very interesting process. The actual inspection, which I must  say, would have resulted in almost no value if you hadn't been there. The  comparison between what I have seen and remembered vs what you documented is  massive. I don't know what I would do without your report, but I guess I would  just not have known what needed to be addressed, and where things were ok. It  takes the guessing out of the process for me.

Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value

I had a fantastic home inspection experience with Dan! He is great to deal with, and SO thorough.  He had the inspection report back quickly, and included so many useful tips, and safety features I should know! I highly recommend him

I just wanted to let you know I was very happy with the inspection you performed. I feel your detail home inspection uncovered some deficiencies on the home we were going to purchase. With the detailed report you supplied after the inspection we were able to make a clear decision about the purchase of the home .   Thanks John & Kelly   

Hello Dan

You were kind enough to conduct an inspection of our new home. I have been using your report to ensure your recommendations are actioned. Both my wife and I would like to say thank you very much for a comprehensive and well laid out report; the action items at the end are very helpful. We appreciate your professional approach, the time you took and your explanations. Our conversations were great learning for us. We will be using your maintenance recommendations throughout the year. 

Thank you for the great service  - best we have ever experienced with the several homes we have bought.

SIncerely

Stephen
