Buying, selling, or maintaining a property in the Greater Montreal area? Inspecteur Gestka provides certified building inspection services, including pre-purchase inspections, pre-sale inspections, and preventative inspections. We help you protect your investment and avoid costly surprises.

Why is a qualified building inspector crucial? Because unlike many inspectors who rely on basic tools, our team uses state-of-the-art equipment like infrared cameras, digital hygrometers, electrical circuit testers, and even drones with cameras to inspect hard-to-reach areas. This allows us to uncover hidden issues like moisture, electrical defects, leaks, and structural anomalies – issues that could cost you thousands of dollars in repairs down the line.

Since 1998, our in-depth expertise in pre-purchase and pre-sale building inspections has helped numerous clients avoid considerable expenses. Our commitment to providing rigorous inspection services has saved clients substantial sums—sometimes tens of thousands of dollars—by identifying serious problems before the purchase or sale of a property.

Here are some concrete examples of savings achieved thanks to our detailed inspections:

•  

• $6,000 saved: Through the detection of vermiculite, a potentially dangerous material for health.

•  

• $15,000 saved: We identified French drains blocked by iron ochre, a problem that can lead to serious damage to the foundation.

•  

• $30,000 saved: Mold in a property can lead to health risks and high cleaning and repair costs. Our inspections helped our clients avoid heavy expenses.

•  

• $50,000 saved: Pyrite in the foundations of a house was identified during our inspection, avoiding massive repair work that could have cost a fortune.

Our Services:

•  

• Pre-Purchase Inspection: A thorough inspection before you buy, giving you a clear picture of the property's condition and potential issues.

•  

• Pre-Sale Inspection: Inspecting your property before you list it allows you to identify and address any problems, increasing its value and facilitating a smoother sale.

•  

• Preventative Inspection: Regular inspections to detect potential problems before they become costly repairs, ensuring the long-term durability and safety of your property.

Our inspections are meticulous and cover all aspects of the building, including structure, foundations, electricity, plumbing, insulation, and more. We provide you with a detailed report on the condition of the property, with recommendations for any necessary action.
