Calgary Home Inspection

Inspections

Inspections are performed by myself, Daryl Mikalson, Master's Environmental Science, P.Eng, a Certified Home Inspector. I am committed to perform a comprehensive inspection using a diagnostic checklist of over 250 symptoms indicative of defects and maintenance required. The checklist is based on the collected knowledge of experienced inspectors. I will take the time required to give your home a complete assessment. My primary concern is your health, safety and peace of mind in your largest investment.

A state of the art inspection reporting system provides an easy to read approximately 50 page report, including photos, specific to your home or potential home. The report includes summaries of Defects (items over $1000 or health and safety issues) and Maintenance Requirements by area of the home with Recommendations. The summaries forms a easy to follow plan to upgrade your property prior to listing, highlights issues to consider prior to purchase, or is a checklist for ongoing maintenance. I will provide an inspection n accordance with InterNACHI of practice, see link below, and the National Occupational Standard Professional Home and Property Inspector (http://www.cahpi.ca/images/stories/pdfs/hpi%20revised%20nos%20final%20-%20june%202008.pdf). InterNACHI provides extensive training and support. A Certified Home Inspector must adhere to the most stringent code of ethics in the home inspection industry, and complete a minimum 24 hours of inspection related continuing education each year.
