Bring Your Home to Light
Buying a home is a major investment and a home inspection is a critical part of the process. We help you better understand the true condition of a home and the performance of its primary systems.
So whether you are looking to buy, sell, or maintain your investment, we will look at every area and element in and around the home, including walking the roof, crawling into attics, and squeezing into those tight spaces to find the issues.
Coast Light Services is dedicated to providing you a professional and thorough inspection, a one on one walk through and a comprehensive report with photos. We ‘bring your home to light’ so you can make an informed decision.
I started my work career in the family business of Landscape Construction. And I went on to spend the next 30 years in business, contracting and buying and renovating 5 personal homes! I was intrigued with the home inspection process when I bought my current house in Victoria 5 years ago, and I have not looked back. With my experience in home renovation, contracting and business, this was a natural progression to residential home inspection.
Born and raised in Victoria, I know the area, the people and best of all – love this beautiful island that we call home.

Shawn was very thorough and did a great job explaining to us what maintenance items to watch out for on our aging home. He is knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. You’ll be pleased with the result. I would highly recommend.

I’ve had great experiences with Shawn of Coast Light Home Inspection as both a home owner (selling) and a potential home owner (buying). I found both sides of the coin to be professional, swift, and thorough. Shawn is really easy to communicate with (via phone, text, email) and is incredibly detailed in his walk-through and report. He’ll go the extra mile to investigate/educate which really gave us a lot of piece of mind when investing in a new home for our family. I would highly recommend his services and hire again.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value From start to finish, our pre-purchase inspection with Shawn was seamless. I love that we were able to book him online, he was quick to respond, and he was incredibly thorough with our inspection. His detailed report was easy to comprehend, and we appreciate that he spent as much time with us as he did going through the report in person. His thorough inspection put ours minds at ease when we submitted our unconditional offer!

Shawn was recommended to us and was able to help out last minute with our home inspection. He was very thorough with the inspection and informative throughout the day, he showed excellent knowledge and was able to discuss any findings. He showed up early, was well mannered, and we had our full inspection report later that evening. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a home inspection!

I contacted Shawn having received a letter from the insurance company pertaining to renewal of my insurance and the age of our roof. His response, information, guidance, inspection, and facilitation of getting the required information to me for the insurance company was impeccable. His patience as I fumble with understanding and forwarding relevant information was/is so kind. Thank you Shawn and Coast Light Home Inspection.
