How long does an inspection take?

Timing depends on the size and age of the property and the scope of the service or package, but these are general guidelines:

- Property inspections: about 3 hours

- Diagnostic testing (Sewer Camera, Mold, Asbestos, Radon, etc.): about 1 hour

- Energy audits: about 2 hours

- Solar System Inspection: about 1 hour

- Packages: about 3 to 4 hours

These are only broad estimates. Your inspection may take longer or shorter depending on access, conditions, and the level of detail required.

How long does the report take?

Report timing is different for each service, so please refer to the service‑specific section for exact delivery commitments and report samples. For example, diagnostic testing or energy audits follow their own timelines based on lab processing or program requirements.

For Buyer’s and Seller’s Home Inspections, we specialize in same‑day reporting.

What should I do after the inspection?

Our report gives you the clear, unbiased information of the condition of the property. you need to make the right decisions for your purchase, negotiations, or next steps. It highlights safety concerns, major defects, and recommended actions so you can move forward with confidence.

Start by reviewing the full report and noting any items marked as safety concerns, major defects, or recommended repairs. If anything is unclear, reach out — we’re always happy to walk you through the findings.

Next, discuss the results with your realtor, contractor, or other professionals to decide whether you want repairs, further evaluation, or negotiation. The report is a decision‑making tool, not a pass/fail grade.

If repairs are completed before possession, you can request a re‑inspection or follow‑up visit to confirm the work. Remember that the report reflects the condition of the home on the specific day and time it was inspected, and conditions can change afterward.

How should I prepare?

Sellers / tenants should ensure access to all areas, secure pets, and keep utilities on. Keep mechanical room, attic hatch, and garage free of personal belongings so that we can inspect.

Buyers usually don’t need to prepare anything, it is a good idea to ask your real estate professional to coordinate with the seller.

How do you handle bad weather?

We continue inspections in all weather conditions. If something becomes extremely unsafe, during bad weather, please allow extra buffer time for the inspector to arrive or complete the work, as travel and on‑site conditions can slow things down. We do our best to communicate any delays quickly so you always know what to expect.

How do I pay?

Payment is due on the day of the inspection or in advance.

You can pay by e‑transfer. We also accept Visa / Mastercard, fee may apply.

How long is the report valid?

A home inspection report reflects the condition of the property on the day and time of the inspection. Homes can change quickly due to weather, occupancy, maintenance, or new issues that develop over time. Because of this, the report should be considered time‑sensitive, not a long‑term guarantee. If significant time has passed or the property has changed, a re‑inspection or updated assessment may be recommended.

What happens if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Please contact us as soon as possible. The easiest way is to text our office at (403) 257‑4820; we monitor messages 7 days a week. Early notice helps us adjust the schedule and offer your spot to someone else. We’ll work with you to find a new date that fits.

Please keep in mind that a cancelation or rescheduling with a short notice would be considered a no-show and fees may apply.

Can I attend remotely or get a virtual summary?

Yes. If you can’t attend in person, we offer remote participation. Your inspector can call or video‑chat with you at the end of the appointment to walk through the major findings and answer your questions. You will still receive the full written report, and the virtual summary helps you understand the key points right away.

Do you offer re-inspections or follow-up visits?

Yes. If repairs or corrections have been completed and you need them reviewed, we offer re‑inspections or targeted follow‑up visits. These are scheduled as separate appointments and focus only on the specific items you want checked.

Availability may vary based on location and season, and standard fees apply.

Do you keep a copy of my report?

Yes. We keep a secure digital copy of your report in our system. This allows us to resend it if you misplace your copy at a later day. A gentle reminder that the inspection report reflects the condition of the home on the specific day and time it was inspected. Homes can change after the inspection due to weather, occupancy, maintenance, or new issues that develop over time.
