Highly qualified building inspectors

To properly inspect a building, detect anomalies, determine their probable causes and suggest appropriate corrective measures, inspectors must possess specific knowledge acquired over many years of study and practice. This knowledge includes:

  • Municipal building codes and regulations;
  • Old and current construction techniques (structure and architecture);
  • Building science and the fundamental principles of construction;
  • Construction-related trades;
  • Health and safety standards (air quality, moisture, structural stability);
  • Methods for evaluating the condition of a building’s structure and envelope;
  • Energy efficiency practices (new insulation requirements);
  • Clear, concise and complete report writing.

Far too often, people act as building inspectors while they lack knowledge of the science surrounding the construction of a structurally sound building. It is therefore imperative that you hire a professional firm with the necessary construction expertise to carry out your inspection.

Choose a reliable company that possesses a team of engineers, each with the professional and technical qualifications required to carefully determine and evaluate the overall condition of a building... because buying a building is a big investment and should not be entered into blindly!
