Pre-Purchase Inspections in Burnaby

Standard home inspections are visual surveys. They don't include thermal imaging, acoustic testing, or moisture metering. For a buyer concerned about hidden water issues — a stain in the basement, a previous claim, an older home with suspect history — a targeted pre-purchase leak inspection delivers data a home inspection can't. Reports are designed to support purchase negotiation or post-closing remediation planning.
