Edmonton Home Inspections FAQ

Our base rates for property or home inspections vary between $400 for a simple apartment condo to $800 or more for a large home. The average cost for an Edmonton home inspection is $550. Property inspection costs will vary depending on the size of the home or building being inspected as well as the building type. We offer a variety of additional value-added services beyond our base standard inspection including Radon Screening, Eye Witness Services, Mold Inspections, Well Water Testing, Septic Testing, and WETT Inspections.

Cost Estimates provided in the inspection report are minimums only and they are intended to be guideline figures. They are based on the most cost effective solution to address the problem and will not include betterment. The inspector is not responsible for the cost of replacement or repair. It is recommended that the Client obtain at least three cost estimates from qualified contractors before finalizing budgets for any work. This information is listed in the REFERENCES section of the inspection report.
Under their professional code of ethics, professional home inspectors who are members of The Ontario Association of Home Inspectors are not allowed to be associated with any other construction or house related trade. All Home Inspectors should tell you what type of contractor to contact (ex Electrical Engineer or Plumber) but it is a conflict of interest for the inspector to offer his services to make any repairs or replacements.
A typical home inspection of an average single-family home size 1800 – 3500 sq. ft. will take approx. 2.5-3 hours. During this time, a home inspector can thoroughly inspect your home, provide you with a detailed home inspection report and answer any questions you may have.
You are welcome and encouraged to attend your home inspection. We encourage you to attend the inspection so you can ask any questions you may have and be educated on your home.
If you will not be attending the full inspection you will need to consider the access your inspector will need to complete his work. Be sure to keep pets in a safe location and leave keys for locked areas including storage sheds, attics, yards, garages, etc. Clear snow or debris outside and move objects from around the electrical panel, air conditioning, furnace and attic.
While the inspectors are familiar with the codes, the inspection to be completed is not a Building Code or By-Law compliance inspection. The client must acknowledge that it may be necessary to confer directly with authorities to confirm whether the Property meets Building Code or By-Law requirements.
Mike Holmes Inspections services residential homes only at this time.
Yes. Just because the home is new does not mean that everything is in perfect condition. The home could have been built incorrectly causing things to fail within the first five years. It’s always a good idea to catch problems early. An inspection is always recommended before purchasing a home (old or new).
The inspection and the inspection report to be provided to the Client are for the sole use of the Client. The inspector and Mike Holmes Inspections shall not be responsible or liable for any use by anyone else of the inspection report or any other information provided.
You will receive an emailed copy of your inspection within 24-48 hours of your inspection.
If you feel we have missed an area in your home please let the home inspector know before he leaves and he will make sure to go back and inspect that area. If you have any questions that are not answered please contact us. We will not know the personal details on your home but we can put you in touch with the inspector directly.
With the exception of BC and Alberta, Home Inspectors are not required by law to have any designation or license.
We won’t grade the property pass/fail, the home will be assessed and the facts will be laid out for you. As certain inspectors may hint on their opinion it is up to you as the potential homeowner to make your decision. A home Inspection is not an appraisal.
The law does not require a home inspection to be done. It’s beneficial to the seller to provide potential buyers with the home details. Most potential buyers will also choose to have an inspection completed on the home they are looking to purchase, just to be safe.
If you have any questions about the report you can give us a call. If the question is specific to your home we may need to put you in touch with the inspector who did your home inspection. We will do our best to educate you leaving you comfortable with the assessment on your home.
When you book a Mike Holmes Inspection we will do a Pre Authorization of payment through your credit card. Once your inspection has been completed and you have received your emailed report, the payment will be completed. We accept MasterCard, VISA, American Express and PayPal.
