With North 49 Home Inspections you will generally have 2 or more licensed inspectors doing your inspection. That's 2 sets of eyes, twice the expertise and done in about half the time.

We do a visual examination of the physical condition of a home, provide you with a complete report and walk you through the home inspection to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident knowing every detail of your home.

Home BUYERS
RESIDENTIAL INSPECTION

Though not mandatory, most home buyers choose a home inspection when purchasing a home. Not only does it protect your largest investment but also gives you peace of mind and comfort knowing your family is safe.

 

Our detailed inspections go over all aspects of a home - including structure, roofing, exterior, ventilation, heating, cooling, electrical and plumbing. We bring to your attention all maintenance needs and major deficiencies. 

 

We go over every detail of the report with you so you walk away knowledgeable and confident knowing everything about your home with no unforeseen surprises in the future.

HOME SELLERS
PRE-SALE INSPECTION

Not just for home buyers - home sellers can also benefit from getting a pre-sale home inspection. 

 

Don't be surprised when it comes time to negotiate your deal! Having a certified home inspection done ahead of time allows you to take care of issues, avoid time delays, avoid added expenses and puts you in the drivers seat when you go to sell your home.

 

As an added bonus to your buyer: we can transfer the Inspection Report to the buyer so they are fully protected!

Renovation Deficiency Inspections

We offer a renovation inspection that can identify sub-standard materials, poor workmanship or work that doesn't meet current guidelines.

Make sure everything is being done correctly before you make that final payment!

New Home Warranty Inspection Services

Before your new home warranty expires, we can inspect your home’s structure, mechanical and electrical systems to identify defects and/or other problems.

Our home inspections help to ensure that your new home was built to current standards.

WETT Inspection

Wood Energy Technology Transfer (WETT) Inspection
A Visual Inspection may be required as part of a real estate purchase, as requested by your insurer, as required by the Authority Having Jurisdiction or as part of a Fire Code requirement. It also provides peace of mind to you prior to using the appliance.

This includes a basic inspection of the solid-fuel-burning appliance and venting system components that are visible. It will include measurements of clearances, opening stove doors and all ground-accessible dampers/clean-out doors, and a visual inspection of the chimney from the ground. It will identify and note any deficiencies and red flags that may require a more detailed inspection. It will include a final inspection report, preferably on WETT inspection forms.

If there is obvious evidence of a problem with the system, a “Technical” inspection should be completed.

Home Maintenance Inspections

A home maintenance inspection can help you identify the areas of your home that need immediate attention to prevent more serious damage.

 

Our inspection includes roof, gutters and drain spouts, fireplaces and chimneys, furnaces and air conditioning, smoke detectors and other safety equipment, plumbing and faucets, windows and doors, basement walls and drains.

 

Be proactive with your home and avoid unnecessary depreciation!

 

What to EXPECT

A Home Inspection generally takes 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the condition, age and size of the house. We encourage buyers to take part in the inspections, if they can, and ask questions when needed.

We will compile a clear, easy-to-navigate report available as both a web-based and pdf report. The Repair Request Builder PDF Summary makes it simple for your REALTOR to generate an addendum to more easily negotiate with the buyer's REALTOR.

Our service does not end with your report; you can call us for advice and information for as long as you own your house. We are here to help you make the most of your home.

The inspectors that did my home inspection were very friendly, knowledgable, and went through every detail with me at the end. the pricing was very reasonable. I will be using their services in the future and reccomend them to anyone looking for home inspection services.

Brent was meticulous, pleasant, and let me know the main issues. It saved me thousands of dollars that at my age I didn't want to risk. Thank you so much.I will recommend you to anyone that might be buying a home

- Darlene

Brent and Kyle are fantastic! Funny guys who are thorough, on time and great pricing! They will definitely find things you would never find on your own, even if it’s a new home build, they will find something!

- Carmen

Jeff and David prepared a very detailed report of our house. We were doing a 1 year inspection before our warranty ran out. They found things that were more than just cosmetic cracks and loose trim. They were both very knowledgeable and knew what they were doing. Both wore their best smiles on the job and answered my questions eagerly.

They showed up before time and provided us with the report a couple of hours after leaving. The report is 74 page long with photos of all the defects and recommendations.

They came recommended by a friend, my whole communication till the date of the inspection was electronic. It was a pleasure working with the whole team. I got a follow up email asking if I had any questions. It was more than a transaction to them.

Thank you for your exemplary service.

- Zuhair

- Matt

I recently hired North 49 for a home inspection and they did an exceptional job. The three inspectors (Jordan, Megan, and Russ) arrived early and did an extremely thorough home inspection. They were all friendly and very knowledgeable, and were happy to answer any questions we had. At the end of the inspection, they prepared a comprehensive report (99 pages!) with photos of everything. I greatly appreciate the detailed report and excellent customer service. Keep up the good work!

I highly recommend North 49 if you need a home inspection. You won't be disappointed.
