Mission sits in a part of the Fraser Valley where you start seeing more rural and semi-rural properties, including homes on wells and septic, properties with crawl spaces, and acreage that may have buried oil tanks. A lot of buyers moving out this way from the city don’t fully understand what they’re taking on when they purchase a property with these systems. That’s not a knock on them. It’s just a different world from a city lot, and it requires a different level of attention.
I know what to look for on these properties because I’ve worked in environments where systems like these were part of the job. I’ll make sure you understand what you have, what condition it’s in, and what it costs to maintain or replace before you’re responsible for it.
Mission home inspections with Pinnacle cover all 10 major components, with full thermal imaging and moisture scanning at every inspection. For rural or acreage properties, I pay close attention to crawl spaces, drainage, and any signs of buried oil tanks or environmental concerns. Radon scanning is available as an add-on. Your written report is complete before we walk through the findings together so you have everything you need to make an informed decision.
I personally inspect every property. There's no team, no hand-offs, and no quality variance. You get my full attention and my full background on every job.
I've worked in petroleum engineering, electrical safety, civil construction, and concrete. That background helps me catch foundation movement, drainage failures, electrical hazards, and HVAC problems that a standard inspection course doesn't prepare you for.
I have your report ready before we do the walkthrough. We go through findings together, room by room, so you're not reading a report alone at home trying to figure out what's serious and what isn't.
