Further Information & FAQ's

JMA property inspections provide a professional overview as to the condition of the subject property and identify any concerns that will require service-repair-replacement in the near future. The information provided will help our clients make an informed purchasing decision.

Reports

Reports are based on Canadian codes and standards and are specific to the inspected building detailing in easy to understand language with assessments and recommendations of each reported topic.

JMA reports are not a “check list” franchise document.

JMA uses “state of the art” equipment for electrical, moisture and carbon monoxide testing. 

Should the client be at the inspection?

We strongly recommend, to get a full understanding of the property, that the client attend the full or last hour of the inspection.

Standard Inspections take approximately three hours.

Guarantee.

We strongly believe that a home inspection professional should provide a guarantee for their clients.

At JMA we provide a 120 day limited warranty on specified items inspected and  found to be in a satisfactory repair and service. 

Can repair costs be deducted from the purchase price?

This will depend on the purchase offer and will require discussion with the your real estate agent.  

Repair and Service Costs

JMA will provide an approximation of costs for repair and service but contractor quotations should be obtained.
