This was an amazing experience.

Checked every corner of the home.He was also very kind to arrange our water test in the same visit and saved us time!The inspection report came a few hours later. We couldn’t believe how fast it was!Thank you for everything.It was a truly amazing experience.

We had a great experience working with our home inspector, Kevin Travis, CPI, A Buyer’s Choice Home Inspections Saint John & SW New Brunswick. We’re purchasing a rural two-story Cape Cod in New Brunswick and, since we’re moving back from BC, the entire process had to be done by email and phone. Kevin made that distance feel effortless.The inspection report was detailed, clearly organized, and full of helpful photos and practical recommendations that made it easy to understand what needed attention. His focus on safety and structural issues gave us real confidence in moving forward with the purchase.Kevin also took the time for a long phone call after the inspection to walk us through the report, his findings, and his recommendations. He went through every part of the property—inside, outside, attic, basement, the double garage—and all the quirks that come with an older rural home. He explained what was typical for a house of this age and style, what might need attention soon, and what was simply worth monitoring. His explanations were clear, patient, and never rushed, and he answered every one of our questions.Overall, the experience was professional, honest, and genuinely helpful. We’d happily recommend Kevin to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy home inspector—especially for rural properties or older homes.

Kevin was very helpful and made the process of booking an inspection smooth and stress free. The findings of the inspection done saved us from buying a house that seemed in decent shape on the exterior, but had lots of hidden costs. He gives a detailed report and pictures to support any findings he presents if you are unable to attend the inspection in person.

Kevin’s inspections report covered all aspects of our proposed purchase with detailed comments in all areas.We found this very usefull as there were a number of issues identified that were unaware to us and and would have cost us in excess of inspection fee to fix.We are very pleased with Kevin’s service and have no reservations recommending Kevin to others.William LemoineGloucester,MA USA

Cory Richards

Kevin’s exhaustive inspection of the home in Saint Andrews was more than I expected. Even though the home we are purchasing is only 960 square feet he spent nearly three hours inspecting the home and went over with me all the findings that I should be made aware of. His written review on top of suggestions for the the future made for easy reading but also, a great reference when deciding what updates or minor concerns should be investigated or addressed in the future. No doubt, I would not have a second thought hiring his services again.

Kurtis Sisk

We just received our home inspection from Kevin and we cannot state how impressed and pleased we are. I’ve been in the development industry for 30 years and have worked around builders most of my life. Kevin is very thorough and honest in his opinion about what is being looked at and reviewed. We currently live 14 hours away from the home we are looking at and have only seen the place through a video conference call with the realtor so needless to say our desire for someone to provide a true inspection and report on the structural and mechanical components of the home was imperative. Our concerns were answered and nothing too major was reported that we didn’t already expect from a 100 year old home. However he was able to see components that we were not able to through the walk through and he was able to provide the life expectancy of the mechanical equipment that we needed which will set us up for no surprises. Absolutely down to earth personality and very open to discussing any aspects of the home. I would highly recommend Kevin for anyone to use for their home inspections

If you have the need for a house inspection, I can’t imagine that you would find anyone more thorough and professional than Kevin Travis. He spent several hours in the house and then an hour or so with us explaining his findings. I was amazed at the detail that he covered during his visit and he brought forth even very minor issues; nothing was omitted. I would HIGHLY recommend Kevin and his services!!

Kevin was very responsive and able to fit us in for a home inspection on little notice. He was very thorough in his report and went through any questions we had. He also assisted with questionnaires/confusing insurance quotes, which was much appreciated! I highly recommend Kevin for your home inspection!

We hired this company to do a home inspection, service was great, very in depth inspection (70 pages plus a video) he went above and beyond the normal expectations of an inspector. Unfortunately the house was a total loss, and we couldn’t make a deal. But the inspection showed us what we weren’t seeing. I would gladly pay for 5 more inspections through these guys rather then spend flight fair to view properties constantly. I would highly recommend.We have since hired this company 2 more times, different inspectors. Very pleased in general with the company and 3 of their inspectors.

Chris made a very thorough inspection on short notice to help us meet the closing date for our purchase. Been told he’s known as the “Deal-Breaker” for some realtors, so if you’re making the inspection conditional, he’ll find whatever issues there are if any are to be found.

Chris Melanson did our home inspection before buying our first home. He was responsive to emails, did a thorough inspection and provided a detailed report to us by the following day. We showed up at the end and he took his time going through his findings and answering all our questions. He did not rush us out the door and even had a great sense of humor. We highly recommend this business and Chris.

I could not have been more pleased with the inspection that Chris did. His paperwork was very detailed, and thorough, flagging many concerns and considerations. He was quick to respond when communicating and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the job. He was flexible, competent, and made the entire process painless. I highly recommend hiring Chris Melanson from A Buyer’s Choice to take care of your home inspection.

Chris was very professional and thorough with our home inspection. He went over everything in great detail and made sure all of our questions were answered. He gave advice and recommendations on how we could fix/improve things and suggested cheaper alternatives that would end in the same result as a more expensive option. Highly recommended.

Chris was extremely accurate and thorough. He was easy to talk to and patient while answering all of our questions. We highly recommend him and would absolutely hire him again to do a home inspection before purchasing our next home. We’d never buy a car without a proper safety check, so we can’t imagine buying a home without a proper home inspection either. Chris perfectly accomplished that.

Can’t say anything bad about the price, and speed of service it all went smooth and quickly. However I am now into several major structure repairs, ones which were in plain site. The terrible smell of mould in the bathroom somehow didn’t get mentioned which has turned into replacing an entire section of exterior wall framing. Entire bathroom floor joists and subfloor And exterior rim joist. All this was visible from the basement by simply looking up. Chris had extensive knowledge in electrical but I felt not nearly enough in structural.

Chris arranged and conducted a home inspection promptly and professionally. Thanks to his diligence we were able to recoup more than the cost of his fees as he identified a problem which we were able to use to negotiate a reduced price with the seller. His thorough report also gave us peace of mind that our new home is in great shape. We highly recommend him.
