Taking the mystery out of the Home Inspection

A home inspection is one of the many things to consider when purchasing a new home or simply re-examining your present home. This broad-brush investigation is key to identifying significant repairs or simply preparing a plan for upgrades. When purchasing, think of a home inspection as experiencing the home at hyperspeed. When re-examining, it’s your planning tool.

So whether in Niagara Falls Ontario, St. Catharines, Welland, Thorold or some other town in the area, ask us about the various ways a we can help.

If you intend to buy a new home, you are given the chance to check out lighting, faucets, doors and windows... as though you have lived there for years. Visitors to a home rarely get this opportunity. If you are examining your own home, the inspector helps you plan the most advantageous repairs to maintain the home in a comfortable state or to prepare for its re-sale.

If the correct steps are not taken, buying a home can lead to a very unhappy outcome. One’s usual approach is to select the size, style, floor plan, the neighborhood, and the price, but what about the other critical questions you need to ask: “Are any big repairs needed?” “Is the house structurally sound?” “Does the roof leak?” “When will it need a new furnace?” and so on. If you were to close a house deal without knowing the answers to these simple questions, you may be throwing your money away. It can temper some of the emotion associated with a very stressful event.
