Why did Kevin Sixsmith create InspectionExperts? — Our Story, Standards & Purpose

InspectionExperts was founded by Kevin Sixsmith to bring clarity, structure, and defensible reporting to Alberta homeowners. The company is built on the strength of its Calgary franchise identity and AmeriSpec’s nationally recognized training standards. This foundation gives clients confidence in how InspectionExperts approaches each evaluation, documents findings, and maintains consistency across every report. To support homeowner understanding, InspectionExperts provides transparent resources that explain its methods, training, and what modern buyers should expect from a professional inspection.

What gap did Kevin identify, and what's his approach in Calgary and the surrounding area?

Kevin saw that many inspections in Calgary and the surrounding communities relied on assumptions instead of evidence. Homes across the region vary widely in age, construction style, renovation history, and climate exposure, yet inspections were often inconsistent and lacked structured, repeatable methods. Through decades of hands‑on work in residential construction, renovation, and inspection, Kevin recognized that homeowners needed a clearer, more defensible approach—one grounded in building science, not guesswork. InspectionExperts was created to close that gap by delivering inspections built on accuracy, clarity, and documentation that stands up in Calgary’s fast‑moving, negotiation‑heavy real estate market.

Hey, I’m Kevin Sixsmith!

I founded InspectionExperts on a simple belief: homeowners deserve clarity, not confusion. Our six pillars of trust—Protecting Clients, Properties, Health, Environment, Deals, and Professional Trust—guide every workflow, training standard, and quality‑control process across our team.

My work focuses on designing and maintaining the systems that keep our inspections consistent, accurate, and defensible. I oversee the workflows our inspectors follow, the communication standards that shape every client interaction, and the quality‑control processes that ensure every report meets the same high bar. When complex findings arise, I support the team behind the scenes so clients receive clear, practical answers they can trust.

I stay connected to the organizations shaping inspection quality across North America through AmeriSpec’s national network, InterNACHI membership, and policy work with the Service Organization for NRCan, including CEIP participation. These relationships help us anticipate risks, strengthen our systems, and maintain the standards that keep Calgary’s real estate deals clean, defensible, and trusted.

Our shift from a single‑inspector model to a multi‑inspector team was intentional: personal service backed by coordinated systems, faster scheduling, and stronger quality control.
