After completing a 3 year program in Industrial Design, Steve's career journey began in 1993 when he joined the Design and Engineering department of an international systems furniture manufacturer as an Industrial Designer. With a curious mind and an interest in buildings, Steve also dabbled in basement, kitchen, and bathroom renovations. His knowledge base expanded as he gained important in-field experience on various systems, as well as plumbing and electrical (rewiring) of residential homes.

Steve's work experience and interests of being a "hands on" type led him to enroll in a home inspection program.  After successfully completing his Home Inspection training program, Steve commenced performing home inspections in 2007. During the initial years of his home inspection career, Steve also completed the required training from NRC and performed home energy audits as a Certified Energy Advisor.  This combination of services further enhanced his understanding of a house as a system and the building envelope. 

 

Steve has successfuly completed all the required courses and practical training required by InterNACHI to perform home inspections as a Certified Professional Inspector. While being a dedicated home inspector, he completed numerous courses and additional complimentary training to excel in his field.

From our clients



“I have hired Steve Blayney to inspect our home twice - just to show how happy my husband and I were with his first inspection! Steve is very pleasant to have in your home and always arrives with a big smile. He thoroughly explains everything he is doing along the way, that my boys and I learned a lot about our house form him! He is very knowledgeable with everything from the roof to the foundation. He was able to spot for us many issues in the house that we had the landlord fix before our closing date. He also provided us with a thorough report which was very clear and easy to understand. Even after the inspection was over, he promptly answers all my calls and my emails...Words cannot express how happy we are with his work- he is definitely a God-send! I recommend him to all my family and friends. Good job Steve and keep up the great work you do!!”​

"After spending over three hours with you at our new home, I feel like we know every inch of the house. Steve was able to pick up on things that we never would have noticed on our own, and your explanations were educational and easy to understand. In addition, the follow-up information you provided is going to help us to keep our home properly maintained, and the clues you gave on what problem spots to watch were invaluable. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone who needs a home inspection. Feel free to use me as a reference if you ever need one."

"Steve conducted a home inspection on a house recently purchased by myself as an agent; he was on-time and precise with the time for the job. The inspection lasted approximately three hours and was extremely thorough - as I was in attendance, Steve took the time to explain the different items he was inspecting and why, in addition to discussing the possible outcomes that may arise for each issue. The price paid was well worth the quality of the inspection, and I would not hesitate in recommending Steve to anyone!"
