Your story!

So many good things to say about Michael! We were recommended Icon Home Inspectations from our real estate agent, specifically Michael Balaban. We didn't get an inspection when we purchased our home and found ourselves needing to do one now, a few years later when we're thinking about making a move once we grow our family. Not only did Michael answer all of our questions patiently and professionally, he also was thorough and gave us general information that'll be helpful for years to come, in this home and future homes. He was easy going and friendly, making the whole process a lot less daunting. Michael explained things in ways that were easy to understand. Rather than using confusing terminology, he really broke it down well for us. 10/10 would recommend Icon Home Inspections and Michael.

Amazing service. Inspection has never been entertaining but Michael made it happen by keeping the parties involved by his unique way. Everything was thoroughly explained and easy to access your report.

This was my first time with Michael for a property for my client in London. We were extremely satisfied. He is full of knowledge and takes the time to explain and educate clients. My first time home buyer client really appreciated him for sharing so much knowledge. Hope I can find someone in Kitchener Waterloo who is equally good :) Thanks Again - Sid Bhutani with EXP Realty in Kitchener Waterloo

My Inspection experience with Michael was excellent. He is a through professional who knows what he is doing and at the same time keeps educating and highlighting important things. A thorough report in the end makes it even better and simple to take the big decision. Best valued and educational session especially for First time home buyers!! Thanks again Michael! :)

Excellent service and very educating and engaging experience

We hired Michael for the inspection of our first home purchase. Knowing that it was our first home, he invited us to join him on the inspection and gave us an exciting crash course in home ownership. He devoted several hours to teaching us what to do in emergency situations with the furnace, water heater, water meter, and carbon monoxide detectors and gave advice to help us be proactive in preventing expensive problems. Make sure you pay attention because he will quiz you. After the inspection, Michael provided us with a detailed report with pictures, comments, and suggestions. He also offered ongoing support with referrals to contractors. Michael even gave us a discount as first time home buyers! Thanks to this inspection we understand the needs of our century home. Do not miss this opportunity to gain insight into the biggest purchase of your life.

Very professional and so knowledgeable. Explained the entire process. We will definitely use this company again.

Michael is a thorough and professional home inspector. He has provided inspections for us on three houses and we wouldn't hesitate to use him again. Not only that, he has been readily available well after our home purchases to recommend other home services professionals in a variety of fields who adhere to his high standards.

Michael expertly handled a mold issue in my home. The problem was diagnosed thoroughly, and the roots of the problem uncovered. He managed the remediation process as well as the projects needed to prevent the issue from happening in the future!

The best home inspection experience I ever had! Thanks, Michael!

Michael was great and very informative! As a first time home owner, I have a lot to learn and he walked me through everything and answered my questions. Highly recommend!!

This is the first home inspection i’ve had and hands down was fortunate to deal with the best man in the industry- Michael Banabas. He’ll ensure you learn everything and a life saver for first time HB.

Mike was very informative, resourceful and professional. We were very pleased and felt more confident about our purchase after having him go through everything with us. I would also note that I loved my pen ;)

Passion to help and went above and beyond what Mike was asked to do. Thank you.

Great service! Very detailed home inspection with lots of photos and recommendations. Best in the business 10/10

Michael performed an home inspection and was fantastic. He was very detailed and thorough and even had tons of maintenance advice. We would recommend him to others and would definitely use him for future inspections.

Fantastic and knows his stuff. Very professional and thorough.

Michael is a very professional. Very knowledgeable in terms of asbestos and lead testing. I would use him again for future homes/projects.
