At Canadian Home Inspection Services we inspect from the top to the bottom and everything in between.

We inspect the following:

Roofing - flashings and chimney(s)
Exterior - gutters & downspouts, soffits & fascia, lot grading, wall surfaces, porches, decks
Structure - footings, foundations, walls, floor sills, beams, joists
Heating and Cooling Systems - distribution piping
Electrical - distribution panel, wiring, GFCI
Plumbing - supply, drain pipes, fixtures
Insulation - in attic, walls and basement areas
Interior - floors, walls, ceilings, stairs, windows, fireplaces/wood stoves, basement/crawl space

This process takes 2-1/2 to 3 hours. The Inspector goes through his findings step by step with the buyer. Be prepared to ask lots of questions. If you are planning any remodeling in the future, now is a good time to find out what can be done, how to do it and approximate cost.
