Home inspector in Brampton

Pre-purchase, pre-listing, new-home and condo inspections in Brampton, by a carpenter with 17 years in GTA construction.

Homes in Brampton

Most of Brampton was built from the 1980s to today, with very large newer subdivisions in the north and east. Many homes have a basement apartment or a separate side entrance, and plenty of buyers are looking at a home with rental income in mind.

What I often look at here

  • Basement apartments: separate entrances, egress windows in bedrooms, smoke and CO alarms, and signs of moisture. I report what I see; whether a second unit is registered with the City is something to confirm separately.
  • Newer homes under Tarion warranty: PDI, 30-day and year-end inspections.
  • Grading and drainage: soil settles around foundations on newer lots and can send water toward the house.
  • Kitec plumbing: in homes built roughly between 1995 and 2007.
  • Attic insulation and ventilation: and bathroom fans that vent into the attic instead of outside.

What I inspect

Buying a home

A full inspection before your conditions expire: structure, roof, exterior, plumbing, electrical, heating, cooling, insulation and interior.

Details

New homes & Tarion

PDI help, 30-day and year-end warranty inspections so defects get on the right Tarion form before the deadline.

Details

Selling a home

A pre-listing inspection so there are no surprises when the buyer's inspector shows up.

Details

Condo apartments

The unit, its systems and what the building's documents say about the parts you share.

Details

Roof inspections

Shingles, flashing, vents, chimneys, gutters and the attic underneath, with photos of every problem.
