PROFESSIONAL HOME INSPECTOR

Welcome to Bernier 3D Inspections for your home inspection's need. Whether you are buying or selling a home, you will want to make sure that you know as much as possible about the property.




The purchase of a home is most likely one of the biggest investment you’ll make in your lifetime. We provide you with information that will help you make the wisest investment choice.

We inspect all major systems and components of the home; a typical inspection takes approximately 2-3 hours. It is strongly recommended that you attend at least a portion of this inspection to get a better understanding of the inspection process. This will also give you the opportunity to discuss any issues or concerns. 

   

Questions and Answers:

What is a home inspection? A home inspection is an objective visual examination of the physical structure and systems of a house, from the roof to the foundation.

What does a home inspection include? The standard home inspection include a report that covers the condition of the home's heating system; central air conditioning system ( if temperature allows); interior plumbing and electrical systems; the roof, attic and visible insulation; walls, ceilings, floors windows and doors; the foundation, basement and structural components.

Can a house fail an inspection? Not really, a professional home inspection is an examination of the current condition of a house. It is also not an appraisal which determines market value. It is not a municipal inspection, which verifies local code compliance. A home inspector, therefore, will not pass or fail a house, but rather describe its physical condition and indicate what components and systems may need major repair or replacement.

How much does it cost? Our inspection's cost are very competitive with the market. The inspection fee for a typical one-family house varies geographically, as does the cost of housing. Similarly, within a given area, the inspection fee may vary depending on a number of factors such as size of the house, its age. Do not let cost be a factor in deciding whether or not to have a home inspection or in the selection of your home inspector. The sense of security and knowledge gained from an inspection is well worth the cost, and the lowest-priced inspection is not necessarily a bargain. Ensure your inspector is a member of a professional affiliation such as the Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors.

What if the report reveals problems? No house is perfect. If the inspector identifies problems, it doesn't mean you should or shouldn't purchase the house, it means that you will know in advance what to expect. If major problems are found, a seller may agree to make repairs or adjust their selling price.

If the house proves to be in good condition, do I really need an inspection? Absolutely, now you can complete your home purchase with confidence. You will have learned many things about your new home from the inspector's written report, and will have that information for future reference.

Do I have to be there? While it's not required that you be present during the inspection, it is highly recommended. You will be able to observe the inspector and ask questions as you learn about the condition of the home and how to maintain it.
