“Richard is a wonderful person and helped so much to get us a last minute report. Can't say enough about the amazing service.”

“Great experience with this company for our WETT inspection. They were professional, easy to talk to, and took the time to make sure I understood everything clearly. The whole process was smooth and informative, and I really appreciated how approachable and thorough they were. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a WETT inspection in the area.”

“Richard is extremely knowledgeable and sincere.
He took the time to answer our many questions, often providing historical context regarding building codes and standards. He was very thorough, checking our roof, attic, and all the nooks and crannies in our basement. He also gave us additional insights regarding wet/damp spots and the quality and integrity of our insulation with the thermal readings he was able to collect.
The inspection report Richard has provided us will be an important document as we negotiate our house purchase. As first time home buyers, we would be at a significant loss if it weren’t for Richard’s expertise, integrity, and generosity.

- Jeremy and Lori”

“I used Armada Inspection services Ltd. To come and check for mould in my home. Richard was very professional, kind and understanding of my concerns. He TOOK HIS BOOTS OFF ( I was grateful and a bit surprised) and thoroughly inspected everything using infrared technology. He explained that everything was fine , putting me at ease and some things I could do to help with a bit of excess humidity. I will definitely recommend Armada and Richard to anyone looking for this service.”

Vehicle Inspection Tips

Always get a pre-purchase inspection before buying any used vehicle—it's the best \$150-\$200 investment you can make
Address known issues before bringing your vehicle in for a safety inspection to avoid re-inspection fees
Keep your inspection report as documentation for insurance and resale value
Budget for potential repairs—inspection failures often involve brakes, tires, or rust remediation
Book your out-of-province inspection promptly after moving to avoid registration delays
Ask the inspector to walk you through any noted deficiencies so you understand the full scope of repairs needed

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a vehicle inspection cost in Athens? +
A standard provincial safety inspection costs $100-$200. Pre-purchase inspections are typically $150-$250. Commercial CVIP inspections range from $200-$400 depending on vehicle class.
What happens if my vehicle fails inspection? +
The inspector will provide a detailed list of items that must be repaired. Once repairs are completed, you return for a re-inspection (often at a reduced fee) to verify the issues are resolved.
Is a pre-purchase inspection really worth it? +
Absolutely. A $150 inspection can save you thousands by uncovering hidden problems like frame rust, transmission issues, or prior accident damage that aren't visible to untrained eyes.
How long does a vehicle inspection take? +
A standard safety inspection takes 30-60 minutes. A comprehensive pre-purchase inspection with a full road test takes 1 to 2 hours.
