Testimonials

I reached out to Valley Home Check desperate for help.  My father had died quite suddenly and his wife was in care which meant I needed somebody to watch over his home until I made multiple difficult decisions.

I have to say that Robert McLennan was an angel sent to me at an incredibly tough time in my life.  He promptly met with me and agreed to take on the task of watching over the house and property while I returned to Ontario to plan next steps.

During the time I was away he proved to be a conscientious, careful, and warm person that treated my father’s home as if it were his own.  He sent me regular and complete check lists of the particulars regarding the house complete with photos and alerting me to issues with the house and grounds that went well beyond what I expected from him.  I always felt well informed and supported.  He arranged lawn care, met with trades people and realtors as I required.  He was always happy to help anytime I reached out to him and I can’t imagine how I would have gotten through this time without him.

Robert once told me that his goal was to be the best in the Comox Valley.  Well congratulations Robert, I’d say you’re there!

“We were very nervous about leaving our home to go on a long vacation for 5 months.  When we met with Robert of Valley Home Check, we were very impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail. We discussed a thorough checklist that would meet our security needs while we were away and he agreed to attend the property on a regular basis and send a full report by email the day after each visit.

For the full 5 months, he was at the house right on schedule and the detailed reports arrived like clockwork the day after.   He communicated with us consistently and was very accommodating and helpful when we needed a couple of extra things looked after. 

We found him to be extremely trustworthy, reliable and responsive to any concerns or requests we had throughout the time we used his services.   The fees were reasonable and he is very easy to deal with.  We had complete peace of mind while we were away, and have absolutely no reservations in highly recommending him and his company to anyone considering a home monitoring service.”
