Ekan provided us with the confidence to navigate our new home purchase. Eugene is professional, courteous and detailed. In addition to a thorough walk-through of their inspection, we were provided with a detailed report that has proven very helpful in managing insurance and future plans for the house.

I would like to thank Eugene from Ekan Inspections for doing a wonderful job on our home inspection. Eugene is a friendly gentleman with a wealth of knowledge when it comes to inspecting homes.
He performed an extremely thorough inspection of the structure, roof, deck, plumbing, electrical and exterior items such as driveway, retaining walls and drainage around the foundation. He also provided information on aspects of the house that will require ongoing maintenance as well as changes that may lead to problems that are brewing. Eugene’s sent me a complete report. He listed any deficiencies including

Eugene completed a home inspection for us on a 40 year old home in Gibsons, BC. He was very responsive to our request and was right on schedule for the inspection. He is thorough and attentive to detail. He really knows what he is doing supported by his engineering knowledge and hands on inspections of industrial and commercial sites.
His report was very complete and he followed up on the questions that we posed to him post inspection.
I would highly recommend the services of Ekan for inspections.

We used Eugene to carry out an inspection of a West Vancouver condo that we were considering buying. He did an excellent job, focused on all the relevant issues, and took the time to explain everything to us - both inside the condo and throughout the building. His knowledge, experience and professionalism were apparent from start to finish. I would recommend him to anyone needing a home inspection.

I am a first-time home buyer, and so have never been through this before and didn't know what to expect.
Eugene arrived on time, which is always a good start!
The inspection was informative, detailed (photos included) , and very thorough.
He was patient in terms of his explanations.
The report arrived within a day and was clear, concise. and easy to understand.
Everything was top-notch from beginning to end, and I would not hesitate to recommend him to a friend.
Thanks for the pleasant experience, Eugene!

My wife and I recently had Eugene preform an inspection on a house we were considering purchasing. He was both thorough and informative and was able to pick up on several items we had missed when we walked through the house previously with the agent and owner. His expert knowledge, attention to detail and kind patience with us was appreciated and helped us immensely. Thank you Gene!

I recently had the pleasure of meeting Eugene Kanciar of EKAN Project Inspection & Consulting when he inspected a cabin on the Sunshine Coast (Nelson Island) that I am in the process of purchasing. I was extremely impressed with his thorough approach and his familiarity with off the grid systems. He spent several hours inspecting the property and had a detailed and easy to understand report to me within the day. The information provided was clear and concise. Eugene’s professionalism, experience and attention to detail made the entire process much easier that I expected and I would recommend
