Services Offered
Posted by manorhome on July 25, 2008
Ok, Windsor - you have spoken and I listened. I have had many requests to add to the list of services that I offer. In addition to the regular menu of inspections (pre listing, pre purchase, condo inspection, etc.) I am now happy to offer the following:
$99 Walk Through Inspection - This by no means replaces a regular inspection but it can be useful in narrowing your search for a home down to one or two candidates. Basically what this entails is me walking through the house with you in order to identify major defects.While the Walk Though inspection will include a written report, it will not be as in-depth as a full inspection.
If you choose to have a full inspection done on a house that you have had a Walk Through done on, I will credit half of the Walk Through fee towards your inspection fee. Conversely, if you have a full inspection done and defects were identified that the seller agreed to fix, I will return and do a Walk Through to be sure that the items were repaired satisfactorily.
Square Footage Calculation - This is something that I do on a regular basis for insurance companies. I have been asked many times to do this for my inspection clients also. This can be a valuable add on to a pre-listing inspection enabling you to tell potential buyers exactly how big your home is. This service is also available on it’s own. Pricing for this service on its own is $40 to measure the home and calculate the footage, then $5 for each additional structure (garage, barn, shed, pool, etc.). My method of measurement is the same one used by appraisers and insurance companies.
Home Inventory - This is a very valuable service for people who want to know the value of the contents of their home for insurance reasons. During the inventory, I will come to your home and photograph and document all the items contained within. I then generate a report that categorizes all of your possessions. You will be provided with a paper copy of the report as well as one on a CD/DVD that you can store offsite (usually in a safe-deposit box). Just like a home inspection report, I compile all the information on site and then return to my office to fine tune the report. You will generally receive the report within 24 hours.
If you have any questions at all about these services, or any of the existing services ManorHome offers, please don’t hesitate to contact me at 519-818-9701 or via email brad@manorhome.ca. Of course you can always visit www.manorhome.ca and use the handy contact form there.
As always thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing from you soon!
-Brad Manor, YOUR Windsor Ontario home inspector.
