Certified Master Inspector on each Muskoka home, cottage or commercial  inspection to ease your concerns when you are buying, or selling. We understand your schedule is hectic and a real estate transaction is time-sensitive. I offer appointments seven days a week  Whether you’re a home buyer or home seller, a real estate investor or a Realtor, I’ll get you the information you need when you need it to have the answers to make a confident decision.
 

  • What, if any, are the issues with the property?

  • What is the cause and effect of the issue?

  • What is involved in fixing the issue?

  • What is the importance of the issue in the overall picture of the property?

Advising clients having a home, cottage,or commercial inspection in Muskoka, Barrie, Orillia area we explain the importance and implications of sags in the roof sheeting such as the one shown here in this cottage inspection. The interior beam in this renovated Muskoka Cottage we inspected has several problems. As home inspectors we explained what they were, how they affected the structure, what was needed to repair it and how important it was to the structure. This view of attic sheathing in a Muskoka cottage we inspected shows dark mould like growth covering 2/3 of the sheathing. Clients of our home, cottage, and commercial services in Barrie, Orillia, and all Muskoka are not just advised of issues like this, but also what caused it, how important this is, and what it will take to fix it.
 
Photos from three different Muskoka inspections show: (1) A sagging doof deck from moisture intrusion into decking,
(2) Incorrectly and underbuilt beam from a homeowner renovation with no permits (3) Mould on underside of sheathing from poorly designed roof structure with incorrectly done venting.

 

Experience That Works for You

Most home inspectors can not answer the last two critical questions. They do not have the years of hands experience in the building industry or the many hundreds of hours of inspection specific education I do. With five decades of experience in home-building and renovations from the ground up, and thousands of property inspections for satisfied clients, Done Right gets it done right. I can spot problems with materials, installation and workmanship that other inspectors might miss.

 As a member of the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors—InterNACHI—I perform through inspections as laid out in the InterNACHI Standards of Practice for homes and commercial inspections, which exceeds those of: CAHPI, the Canadian Association of Home & Property Inspectors; OAHI, the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors; and ASHI, the American Society of Home Inspectors. I also abide by a strict Code of Ethics, which puts clients’ interests first.
 
I am Certified Master Inspector®s  and have earned the inspection industry’s highest professional designation. 
Done Right Home Inspections has other experts on call, when necessary, such as a licensed electrician and licensed HVAC technician. Let Done Right put its experience and expertise to work for you and be assured that there will be no big and costly surprises from undisclosed issues the property may have
.
