Your Home Inspection – Protect Your Investment
Your Home Inspection – What you get. You will be receiving a professional home inspection of your new home by a Certified Building Code Official. A CBCO is a designation by the Ontario Building Officials Association after an individual has completed and passed the prerequisite Ontario Building Code Courses.
Roger Frost is also a Certified Master Inspector and has inspected over 7,500 homes in the past 15 years.
Your Home Inspection – Knowing the Basics
Free Thermal Imaging is also included with every home inspection. An Infrared Camera can detect missing insulation, hidden moisture and electrical hot spots.
We also use one of the most sensitive moisture detectors commercially available, carry a variety of electrical meters and testers and have 5 ladders available to ensure we can access any areas required.
Our Knowledge and Training allows us to determine whether a Building Permit or Electrical Permit was taken out for any renovations. If you buy a home that has been illegally renovated, you are assuming responsibility for any problems or required repairs.
Did you know that any change or modification to a homes structure requires a Building Permit. Depending on work being performed a Registered Designer or Architect maybe required to
supply Building Department with drawings detailing work. The Building Department will schedule the required number of inspections when Permit is issued. The Structural Design of your home can be a very important part of the home inspection process.
I always personally extend an invitation to prospective buyers to attend the home inspection. This is a great opportunity to show them items of importance in their new home and an any deficiencies noted while conducting the home inspection. Questions are always welcome, and we also remain available to you after the inspection for any questions you may have.
