Port Coquitlam sits in one of the most active parts of the Lower Mainland housing market, with a range of property types from older post-war homes to recent construction. Older homes in PoCo carry the familiar risks of their era: aging electrical panels, Poly-B plumbing, and drainage systems that were never designed to handle decades of deferred maintenance. Newer builds are a different conversation, with HVAC sizing, concrete quality, and foundation grading all worth scrutinizing.
I inspect homes across the Tri-Cities area and I understand what this climate and this geology do to properties over time. My civil and geotechnical background means I don’t just check for visible cracks. I look at the conditions that cause them and what they’re likely to cost if left unaddressed.
Port Coquitlam home inspections with Pinnacle cover all 10 major components, with full thermal imaging and moisture meter scanning on every inspection. Drone roof inspection is available where needed, and radon scanning is offered as an add-on. Your written report is complete before we walk through the findings together, so you have everything you need to make a confident 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.
