GL InspectionsHome inspector in Thornhill
Pre-purchase, pre-listing, new-home and condo inspections in Thornhill, by a carpenter with 17 years in GTA construction.
Homes in Thornhill
Thornhill sits across Vaughan and Markham. Much of it was built in the 1970s and 1980s, with backsplits, sidesplits and two-storey homes, many on ravine lots, plus newer homes and condos along Yonge and Bathurst.
What I often look at here
- Homes from the 1970s and 1980s: aluminum branch wiring in some homes, poly-B water lines, and original or second-generation furnaces, roofs and windows.
- Ravine and sloped lots: grading, drainage, retaining walls and decks, which I know well from years of building them.
- Renovated kitchens and open-concept layouts: how removed walls were supported.
- Condos on Yonge and Bathurst: unit systems, windows and balcony doors.
