The homeownership journey – from buying your first home to selling and moving to your next dream home as well as creating a lifetime of memories while living in each property – is extremely exciting and can definitely include some challenges. But, fear not, as your trusted property inspectors for life, we have a full range of inspection services available for all stages of homeownership. We understand that homeownership is not just a transaction – it’s a lifetime of investments – and you need to truly know each property.
Buy
When purchasing a new property, it’s important that you’re buying with confidence. Our commitment to providing thorough and detailed inspections ensures that you step into your new home with peace of mind. We look beyond the surface to uncover potential issues and provide you with a comprehensive understanding of your property. This transparency is the foundation of trust we build with our clients, setting the stage for a seamless buying experience.
All home inspections should disclose the condition of the structure, foundation, plumbing and electrical systems, windows and roofing. An inspector will alert you to caution areas based on the age of the house as well as specific characteristics, note previous renovations and specify issues that must be addressed immediately versus ones that can be remedied in future. And, furthermore, the inspection report acts as an owner’s manual for the home, detailing such items as shut-off valves and breakers.
Investing in a home purchase inspection can potentially save thousands in future repairs by ensuring big-ticket issues don’t occur down the road.
And if you’re ready to purchase a recreational/investment/short-term rental or commercial property, keep in mind that you can also benefit from pre-inspections, purchase inspections and annual maintenance inspections.
Sell
When it’s time to sell a property, your trusted home inspector’s role evolves into helping prepare your home to go on the market by conducting a pre-listing inspection. Having a pre-inspection completed prior to listing that highlights the sound investment buyers can expect upon purchasing your property can prove beneficial – and help set your property apart from others already for sale in your neighbourhood.
You’ll have a list prepared detailing any work that may need to be done in the future that can empower you to make some changes yourself prior to listing and/or equip you with the required information to show potential buyers that only minor repairs/upgrades are suggested by a trained professional down the road. This helps take the guesswork out of the homebuying process for many buyers by boosting confidence in your property.
Live
Throughout your time in each property, your inspector is here to ensure everything in your home is running as expected, and monitoring regular wear and tear through an annual home inspection. Proactively addressing maintenance issues helps you preserve the value of your investment while ensuring the safety and well-being of your family. We also provide useful checklists for each season to help homeowners continually self-monitor properties – Spring, Summer, Fall & Winter.
Additionally, we offer a comprehensive list of speciality environmental services, including radon and air quality surveys, mould testing and Wood Energy Technical Transfer (WETT) inspections.
Whether you’re buying, selling or simply living, we have a full spectrum of property inspection services available to protect your greatest investments. And throughout it all, we’re here to provide free technical advice during your time as a homeowner. This is just one of the ways we go the extra mile to ensure we’re fully servicing all client needs.
