THE LEADER IN HOME INSPECTIONS IN BRECHIN

We specialize in building inspection of houses, condos, manufactured homes, rural properties, acreages and mobile homes in the Brechin and Lagoon City area.  Our clients are presented with a very comprehensive and easy to read report.  Each property is inspected in detail according to the standards and practices outlined by InterNACHI (International Association of Certified Home Inspectors).  Many aspects are covered, including roofing, exterior, structure, insulation, heating and air-conditioning (HVAC), electrical and plumbing systems, to name just a few. An educated consumer is a smart consumer.  

Our inspection process goes beyond the standard home inspection requirements.  Our goal is to ensure you have the education, understanding and practical information you need to both make the decision and make the most of your new home.  Our expert knowledge of the Ontario Building Code and Construction Practices enables us to provide a more comprehensive inspection of your property.

That perfect new home may look great but as a professional home inspector I will help you identify potential problems. Many older homes today have problems areas that are not disclosed, such as; aluminum wiring, vermiculite insulation and galvanized plumbing.

Identifying a major problem does not necessarily mean you will lose that home, most sellers when confronted with the evidence of a major concern or defect will correct that deficiency at their own expense. Our detailed Home Inspection ensures that it is the Home Owner, and not you the Buyer who will bear this financial responsibility.

Each property inspection includes a THERMAL IMAGING SCAN at no extra cost.  The use of an infrared camera will discover areas of heat loss from within a house or condo, identifying problem areas of heat loss and therefore increased energy costs for the potential house buyer or seller. An Infrared camera can also help to find moisture in the walls ie: from a water leak or cracked foundation. It  is also helpful in finding overloaded electrical circuits (mostly in older homes).

Our detailed inspection report, complete with pictures of every deficiency and maintenance issue, can give you a heads up on what may be required today, and in the future. Save money by discovering and addressing deficiencies and problems before they become an expensive repair or require replacement.

Brechin On has become a desirable location for retirees and individuals wanting affordable waterfront property. Brechin is a growing water front community and has lots of parkland and forested areas.
