Our inspector, Robert
G. MacArthur, has spent many years in the Carpentry business
since graduating in 1979 from a 3 year course at PEI’s
Holland College. From framing, roofing cabinet building,
to high rise construction he then moved on to operate
a successful proprietorship of carpentry services in
PEI. Through the years, Robert developed an interest
in further education. This of course leads us up to present
RGM Home Inspection Services.

 We
are a member of CAHPI Atlantic & 100% Island
owned and operated. Canadian Association of
Home and Property Inspectors or CAHPI (Atlantic) is a
self-regulated body of Home and Property Inspectors,
that is a part of the Canadian Association of Home and
Property Inspectors. The Canadian Association of Home
and Property Inspectors (Atlantic) defines the qualifications
and performance requirements; regulating its members
and granting the designation "Registered Home Inspector" to
qualified practitioners in the provinces of Nova Scotia,
New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Price Edward Island.
Home
inspections began as a consumer service in the 1970's
in direct response to the growing demand by the home
buyers, and it soon became apparent that for the consumer,
selecting a qualified Home Inspector was becoming as
important as selecting a qualified Real Estate professional,
or even the right home.
The Canadian Association of Home
and Property Inspectors (CAHPI) was formed in 1982, and
is the national organization of duly recognized provincial/regional
associations. The CAHI (Atlantic), formed in 1997 is
the Atlantic member of CAHPI.
One of the major goals
of the Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors
(Atlantic) is to enhance the technical and professional
performance of home inspectors through education. It
is also devoted to promoting the Standards of Practice
and Code of Conduct, as the broadly accepted requirements
for home inspectors.
