FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here are a few of the more common questions that we encounter. Do you have a question that isn't covered below? Please contact us and we will get you that answer you are looking for!

How Long does a Home Inspection take?

A home inspection is typically 2-2.5 hours on site, depending on size and condition. Sewer inspections usually take about 30 minutes but can vary.

Should I Attend the Inspection?

Absolutely! I love talking homes. Many clients join for a walkthrough at the the end: it's the best time to ask questions.

When Will I Get the Report?

Unless otherwise stated, reports will be delivered by the end of the next day.

Do you Inspect Older Homes?

Yes, with the oldest I have inspected being from the early 1800s! Older homes are common in Nova Scotia, and we're experienced in identifying age-related defects.

What Payment Methods do you Accept?

All major credit cards, e-Transfers, and cash.

Can I Add a Sewer Scope to my Inspection?

Yes, and it's highly recommended, especially for older homes or properties with large trees. A scope can be completed at the same time as a inspection or as a stand alone service at a later date. A sewer scope usually takes about 30 minutes to complete although this can vary.

Are you Licensed and Certified?

We are certified through InterNACHI and have been members in good standing since 2021. As of 2025 Nova Scotia does not license or regulate home inspectors.
