Signs of rodents, squirrels, raccoons, and other pests that could damage your home — checked during every inspection at no extra cost.
Protecting Your Home
During the home inspection, we look for places in the building envelope, foundation, soffits, attic, and roof where pests can enter the home. While we are not licensed pest control specialists, we bring these issues to your attention in the report and verbally during the inspection walkthrough.
Rodents and other pests can carry diseases harmful to humans through contact with their waste and urine, and indirectly through mosquitoes, fleas, and mites.
Beyond health risks, pests can cause significant damage to your home — from chewing through pipes and electrical wiring to compromising insulation and structural components.
Why It Matters
Rodents chew on water pipes, causing leaks and water damage that can go unnoticed behind walls for months.
Damaged wiring from pest activity can cause power outages and, in serious cases, electrical fires.
Pests can compromise the structural integrity of your home by burrowing through wood framing, insulation, and other materials.
Insulation trampled and compacted by pests loses its ability to keep you warm in winter and cool in summer — increasing energy costs.
What We Check
We inspect these common areas where pests gain access to the home.
Building envelope gaps
Foundation cracks and openings
Soffits and fascia
Attic vents and openings
Roof penetrations
Skirting (mobile homes)

"Adam found issues that we never would have noticed. The thermal imaging caught a moisture problem behind the wall. His background in renovations really shows — he explained exactly what repairs would cost."

"Very thorough inspection of our Surrey home. Adam covered all 9 systems and the report was incredibly detailed. Only reason for 4 stars is we wished the inspection could have been a bit quicker, but quality was excellent."
