Inspector Credentials


Michael Burfitt

InterNACHI Certified Professional Inspector

​When I launched Inside Edge in the Spring of 2021, I wanted to make sure that our company was built for success from day one with unmatched credentials and that we would become a trusted source of professional home inspections for buyers, sellers and homeowners alike. Our company was the result of three years of hard work and careful planning, and we continue to grow every day. I have an extensive background in my professional career that should remove any doubts that you are hiring a top-quality home inspector to provide you with the best home inspection possible.

Experience

​In addition to being an experienced and Certified Professional Inspector from InterNACHI, the world's largest home inspection organization, I have an additional 15 years' experience in Building Operations & Maintenance, where I gained my extensive knowledge of the interdependency of various building systems such as plumbing, electrical & HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning). Previous to this, I wore the "green shirt" at a major home improvement retailer, where I developed my passion for buildings, construction and helping homeowners live in a safe and healthy home, all within their budget constraints. I have also volunteered with many community organizations, most notably Habitat for Humanity Canada. With my knowledge of modern building construction and system design & maintenance it is my aim to assist everyone with their goal of having a safe, healthy, cost and energy efficient home to live in. ​
