Homes in Maple

Most of Maple was built from the 1990s onward, with newer subdivisions added in the last decade. Many homes are now 20 to 30 years old, which is exactly when the original systems start to need replacing.

What I often look at here

• Kitec plumbing: used in many GTA homes built roughly between 1995 and 2007. It was recalled, and insurers often ask about it. I check the visible piping and fittings at the water heater and under sinks.
• Original furnaces, air conditioners and water heaters: at 20 years or more, they're near or past their expected life. I note ages so you can plan.
• Original roofs: asphalt shingles from the first build are often due for replacement.
• Attic ventilation and bathroom fans: fans that vent into the attic instead of outside cause moisture and mould on the sheathing.
• Newer builds: Tarion PDI, 30-day and year-end inspections.
