Our Montreal home inspection includes a visual review of the following major systems and components, where visible and accessible:

1. Roofing System

A regular roof inspection is recommended to assess the wear and damage of your roof. It is more cost efficient to find minor defects than to replace the entire roof covering. Our inspection process considers the harsh Montreal climate changes we experience. We can estimate the age of your roof covering, as well as identify the type of material used. Your chimney, roof gutters, vents, and skylights will be inspected for visible condition, functionality, and installation concerns. Read more…

2. Exterior System

The examination of the exterior portion of your house covers visible and accessible components outside the home. Our house inspector will assess the functionality and safety of the exterior surroundings of your home. This includes the driveway, decks, patios, fences, walkways, and garage. The inspection may also include siding, windows, exterior grading, doors, and visible exterior electrical components. Read more…

3. Structure System

If there is a problem with the home’s structure, other areas of the property may be affected.
