TRU Inspections Offer

Buyer or Pre-Purchase Inspection

This is the best way to become fully informed about the home you are buying. You have a unique opportunity to participate in the process of inspection to become more familiar with complex life support systems in the house.

Seller or Pre-Listing Inspection

Having the home inspected prior to placing it on the market is the smart way to avoid unwanted surprises that may be associated with issues discovered during your buyer’s inspection. You stay in total control and have the flexibility to deal with issues if they are found earlier.

Peace of Mind or Maintenance inspection

It is a good idea to periodically check the condition of your house and its mechanical and structural elements. You may want to identify any existing and potential problems before they intensify and create the basis for unplanned expenses, sometimes significant.

Pre-Delivery Inspection

PDI will help you identify defects and problems in the new home, complete a 30-day warranty form and work with the builder to correct the defects. New homes are evaluated according to the Performance Guidelines of the Tarion Warranty Program in addition to the regular home inspections standards of practice.

Post-Delivery warranty inspection: First and Second Year

Ontario New Home Warranty program recommends having all new homes to be inspected before their first- and second-year anniversaries. These inspections will provide you with a report that can greatly simplify the completion of your one- and two-year warranty forms. Having your home inspected by a professional inspector with help to identify problems that are still covered by the warranty and can be fixed by the builder.

Aerial roof Inspection with drone

The most advanced modern aerial technology provides unparalleled quality and level of details of the condition of the roofs of any height and building materials. Did you know that only about 30% of roofs can be physically inspected due to their accessibility, slope angle and fragility of roofing materials? RPAS (drone) technology allows us to inspect any type of roof with the highest possible quality within a reasonable time.

Infrared Thermal Imaging Inspections

An advanced, non-invasive technology that allows identifying things not normally seen by an inspector and can’t be revealed using conventional inspection methods. Thermal imaging identifies missing or insufficient insulation, air leaks, electrical issues, such as overheated wires and devices, HVAC issues, insects and rodents’ presence and much more.

Imaging Moisture inspection

An advanced technology, similar to Infrared Thermal inspection allows to visually identify areas in the building with increased moisture levels and then take more precise measurements using the contact method.

Air Quality Inspection

Instrumental whole-home measurement of Air quality and pollution levels for Formaldehyde (HCHO), Total organic volatile compounds (TVOC), dust particulates (PM2,5), relative humidity, and temperature.

Got Questions?

We Answer!

A Home Inspection is a non-intrusive visual examination of the major components and systems of the house. These include Exterior, Roofing, Structure, Plumbing, Heating/Air Conditioning/Ventilation, Interior, Attic and Insulation.

As the result of the Inspection, during the next 24 hours you will receive a detailed report with high-quality images of every finding, defect or maintenance item. The report will help you make the best decision possible. If you are buying, we recommend keeping the Inspection report as a reference book and a to-do list.

In accordance to the regulations, a Home Inspection is not intended to provide any warranty or serve as an appraisal. The inspector is trained to visually identify the defects and recommend an action or further evaluation.

The Home Inspection process usually takes two to three hours depending on size, age and condition of the house.

Having your house inspected means protecting your largest investment from unwanted surprises, giving you a peace of mind and more control over the process of selling or buying the property. It will also protect your pocketbook and provide an extra protection for the health of your family. Any house, no matter how old it is, can have dozens of defects, most of them invisible for untrained eye.

Absolutely. There is no direct connection between the age of the house and the number of defects or problems. Newer homes often perform worse than older ones, depending on various conditions and build quality.

The most popular and frequent type is a pre-purchase inspection. This inspection is typically conducted after a purchase contract is signed and is a part of conditional acceptance of the deal.

The next popular type is seller inspection or pre-listing inspection, conducted when you want to sell your home without unpleasant surprises.

Almost all new home buyers are ordering PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection), and, consequently, one- and two-year warranty inspections of their new homes.

Maintenance inspection is also highly recommended for all home owners to help them maintain their home in a good working condition.

There is no requirement for the customer to be present during the time of inspection; however, we highly recommend to participate and proactively ask questions to learn how your home works.  This knowledge is essential for further maintenance of the house and can be leveraged in negotiations with contractors when you decide to do further improvements and renovations.
