Whether you
are buying, selling, or maintaining your home, our professional training,
field experience, and high quality service allows us to offer the most
comprehensive home inspections available.
We will inspect each of
these systems and components, as permitted:
Roofing: Coverings, flashings, vents, skylights,
etc.
Structure: Footings, foundations, crawlspaces, etc.
Interior: Walls, floors, ceilings, windows,
doors, stairs, fireplaces, etc.
Exterior: Gutters, downspouts, soffits, lot grading,
porches, decks, driveway, etc.
Plumbing: Fixtures, pipes, drains, venting,

Depending on the property size and age, our inspections will take between
2 to 3 hours. We request that you be available during the
inspection to review all findings with the inspector. You are encouraged
to accompany the inspector throughout the property except on the
roof, or any other area that is deemed unsafe for you, or
may damage the property. At the completion of the inspection, the inspector
will review all of his or her findings with you. The detailed inspection
report, which includes descriptions of all the systems in the home, photos
of inspected items of interest, as well as
any recommended improvements, will be made available to you online
within 24 hours. Alternatively, you may also request to receive a hard
copy printout or CD. Best of all, our services don't end with the
inspection. For as long as you own the home
, you can call us at anytime with any additional questions -
at no extra charge!

behind our inspections with a risk-free guarantee: If you are not

our inspector and you won't have to pay -- it's that simple!
Free
Consultations: You may contact us, at anytime, for free consultations for
as long as you own the home we inspected.
Inspection Fees Our inspection fees vary from $250 to $400, depending
on the type, age, and size of the property being inspected since these
factors affect the amount of time needed for the inspection. But,
more importantly, an inspection company's quality of service and expertise
should be your main selection criteria. Buying a home is probably
the most expensive investment you will ever make. This is no time to
shop around for a cheap inspection. Don't let cost be a factor in
deciding whether or not to have a home inspection or in the selection of
your home inspector. The sense
of security and knowledge gained from a high quality inspection
will be well worth the cost. Please take the extra time to
ask for a quote. For more information regarding

Buying a home?
Your offer has been
accepted and your financing is in place. As mentioned in the ‘Making
the Offer’ section of the “Buying a Home in Canada” guide found on
the CMHC Website, it’s wise to make your purchase conditional on the
home passing a professional home inspection. Inch by Inch
Inspections will make a detailed inspection of the property you are
buying, making use of the newest technology to do so. Thermography,
for example, uses infrared imaging to measure and see thermal energy
within an object or area (ie., mould). This technology is a great
option if you are currently selling, thinking of selling, or buying
a piece of real estate. When you receive the Inch by Inch
Inspections home inspection report, you and your real estate agent
will have the opportunity to discuss how required repairs, if any,
may affect the sale price that was agreed upon. Call on Inch by Inch
Inspections for your home inspection today! What you can expect is a
friendly, intelligent professional to provide you with a
comprehensive report based on the following inspection items:
exterior, interior, plumbing, electrical, heating, cooling, roofing
& attic. Most of your inspection will be maintenance
recommendations, life expectancies and minor imperfections. These
are nice to know about. However, the issues that really matter will
fall into four categories:
- Major defects.
An example of this would be a structural
failure.
- Things that lead
to major defects. A small roof-flashing leak, for
example.
- Things that may
hinder your ability to finance, legally occupy, or insure the
home.
- Safety hazards,
such as an exposed live buss bar at the electric
panel.
- Basement leak
Anything in these
categories should be addressed. Often a serious problem can be
corrected inexpensively to protect both life and property
(especially in categories 2 and 4). One thing for sure is that a
home inspection requires work, a lot of work. Ultimately a thorough
inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector's own effort.
Inch by Inch Inspections guarantees that we will give you our very
best effort. “Inspected once, Inspected right!”
