What is a Home Inspection?


A home inspection is a comprehensive visual examination of the home’s overall condition on the day of inspection. We look at the major systems and components. A trained and qualified home inspector will review your house as a system, looking at how one component of the house might affect another. Components that are not performing properly should be identified, as well as items that are beyond their useful life or are potential life safety issues. The purpose of the home inspection is to provide the client with a better understanding of the property conditions, as observed on the day of the inspection. 



Why do I need a Home Inspection?


Buying a house is potentially the biggest investment of your life. Having a home inspection done prior to purchasing can give you the peace of mind that you are making the right decision, as well as giving you an education on the property.  This can be an extremely stressful time, and we want to be able to help make it a better experience for you and provide you with the information needed to make an informed buying decision.



How much does a Home Inspection cost?


Home Inspectors set the price for their services based on their own criteria. Criteria for Technine Building Inspections pricing will be based on:

  • Type of Home (house, townhouse, condo, mobile, etc)
  • Characteristics of Home (square footage, number of living units, age of home, etc)
  • Extra Costs (detached garages, suites, outbuildings, driving distances, etc)
  • We will be able to provide a firm quote in advance of the inspection.



How long does a Home Inspection take?


There are many different factors that will determine the length of time needed to perform a thorough home inspection. Such as the size of the property; whether it is a condo, townhouse, or detached house, the age of the building. A typical inspection can vary anywhere from 2-4 hours. After the inspection, we will go over the major items found in the inspection (Summary Items) which will  take roughly 15 minutes. 



When do I get my report?


A full detailed report will be sent out within 24 hours of the inspection via email. (Usually much sooner than 24 hours)



Can I share my report?


The Report is produced specifically for you. Once you receive your report, it is yours and you can share it with whomever you wish. The report is owned by you and we cannot share it with anyone else without permission from you.



How do I prepare my home for inspection?


Homeowners should be aware that inspectors cannot move personal belongings during the course of the inspection. Here are a few suggestions to prepare a home for an inspection:

  • Remove any furniture and storage from around access panels, crawl spaces, attic hatches, electrical panels, furnaces, hot water tanks and water shut-offs.
  • If the access panel to the crawl space or attic is in a closet, you might want to remove the clothes from that closet or cover the clothes with a sheet, in order to protect them from bits of insulation and debris that might fall down in the process of removing the access panel.
  • Unfriendly dogs or other family pets can complicate the inspection process and are best kept away from the house or in a contained space during the inspection.
