THE PERFECT HOME DOES NOT EXIST. Any comments made on specific areas of concern are not made to dissuade anyone from considering a property as a purchase option. Every property, even a new home, will have details which may require correction or attention.

THIS REPORT IS BASED ON THE NON-INVASIVE, VISUAL OBSERVATION OF THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY ON THE ACTUAL DAY OF THE INSPECTION. The condition could change. Dismantling and/or extensive review of the internal components of any appliance, equipment or system is beyond the scope of this inspection including but not limited to well and septic systems, swimming pools, alarm systems, saunas, sprinkler systems, smoke detectors. We do not operate or light gas or wood stoves or fireplaces. This report is based on the residence itself and does not include any unattached buildings or structures. The condition of certain systems and components will be randomly sampled such as, but not limited to electrical receptacles, lights, caulking and examination of surfaces for signs of moisture ingress.

The scope of this inspection is to identify major faults or problems existing in the dwelling that are visible, if any, with some attention given to minor problems. Additional consideration is given to specific areas of concern, if existent. Weather conditions may limit the extent of the inspection process with regard to the scope and the accuracy of the report.

This report is an opinion based on visual examination of all accessible areas of the building, with all its attendant limitations. Every attempt is made to ensure that all problem areas are covered, however Canadian Residential Inspection Services [which includes all employees and franchisees] does not assume liability or responsibility for any errors or omissions of the report, or any action taken by anyone arising from this report.
