Noel was extremely professional and knows what he’s doing! He completed an inspection on my house and explained everything along the way! Highly recommended if you are a buyer/seller wanting a pre sale/purchase inspection.

Noel was able to accommodate a short notice inspection, was very thorough, easy to talk to and spent more time then scheduled to ensure every issue/detail was covered.

Noel performed a thorough and organized home inspection, the results of which were clearly and logically summarized in a comprehensive follow-up report. It was reassuring that Noel was open to (and even encouraged!) questions about his observations as we walked through the house. He was communicative in terms of what he was doing and why he was doing it, which made the home inspection process easy to follow. His timeliness in responding to my initial inquiry and in producing the report, coupled with his professional demeanour made this a highly satisfactory experience. I have no reservations in recommending Noel at Irongate Inspections to anyone looking for a high quality home inspection. Thank you Noel!

We had Noel out to do our 30 day tarion warranty, he was very thorough. He encouraged us to walk through the house with him as he did the inspection and took the time to explain what he was doing and seeing all while documenting for us. By the end we were very well informed and will gladly being using Noel again when our next tarion inspection date is due.

Noel was great – personable, very professional in his business dealings, and knowledgeable in home construction/mechanicals. He was able to squeak me in for a last minute inspection with less than 24 hours notice. Recommend him to anyone in his service area and beyond to help get a quality inspection

Noel did my inspection and was great at providing details and recommendations on how to proceed with the few issues that was found during the inspection. He is very quick at responding to emails or text and very flexible with scheduling the inspection. All around great experience.

I really appreciated working with you Noel, from Irongate Inspections. You took the time to walk me through every step of the inspection—from the exterior to the upstairs and down to the basement—carefully checking everything and thoroughly answering all my questions. I’m happy to recommend you 100% for your professionalism, knowledge, and meticulous work. Thank you!

Noel went above and beyond to carefully assess and explain the major issue with my roof (leak), providing a detailed plan to resolve it. Thanks to his expert advice, I was able to take proactive steps before the problem worsened. I truly appreciate his professionalism and responsiveness and would highly recommend their services to anyone in need.

Cannot say enough about this company. Very professional in both timeliness and conduct.

We had recently purchased a house in the Brockville area and requested an inspection to get a general idea of prioritizing where to start on the home, or areas of greatest needs. Noel was knowledgeable and provided an excellent break down of his assessment. He went a above and beyond what was expected, after he identified water issues with one of our showers he provided advice and recommendations on repairs and maintenance to avoid similar issues in the future.

Five star, would 100% recommend.

Response from the owner 23:51 18 Feb 25

Noel is professional and relatable. He answers questions quickly and doesn’t make you feel like you’re asking something stupid.

He accommodates his schedule to fit his clients needs and respects his clients time.

Couldn’t find a better home inspector!
