Home inspector in Markham

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

Homes in Markham

Markham mixes a historic core in Unionville and Markham Village, established 1970s to 1990s neighbourhoods, and many newer subdivisions and condos. Each age group comes with its own checklist.

What I often look at here

  • Homes from the 1990s and 2000s: original furnaces, air conditioners, water heaters and roofs reaching the end of their life, and Kitec plumbing in homes built roughly between 1995 and 2007.
  • Older homes: aluminum branch wiring in some late 1960s and 1970s homes, poly-B water lines, and renovations over the years.
  • New builds under Tarion warranty: PDI, 30-day and year-end inspections.
  • Condos and stacked townhouses: unit systems, windows, balcony doors and signs of water entry.

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.

A full check-up for homeowners: before a renovation, after a storm, or just to plan the next repairs.
