I had Ian over for my home inspection and he was super helpful and went beyond the basic inspection and taught me a lot of professional information about the home. Later on, I hired him here and there for my house renovation. He was always very quick on my call, he did my tree and concrete removal for a very reasonable charges and I was impressive and happy with the work.

We found Mr. Derksen to be a real asset to our business with his background as a Inspector, he offered many informed ideas and directions to improve our client services. His design services were exemplary and very reasonable. We would heartily recommend him for any of construction requirements.
