Hope everyone had a good weekend!

Happy family day! Throwback to Niagara trip. I’m spending time with my cohorts today, what are your plans?

Thank you Natasha Eden for trusting me with your valued clients home inspection!

Have you ever put something together from IKEA and had a few nuts left over? #fridayfunny Stay warm!

Shingles should not be used when the roof slope is lower than a 4/12 pitch. This should be treated as a flat roof. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

If your bathroom fan isn’t drawing enough air to hold a tissue up, it could cause condensation damage to the interior of your house. Cleaning the fan occasionally could help. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Planters against your house is not a good idea. The parging on this house is deteriorating, and it’s just a matter of time before adding water to the side of the house will affect the interior. #homeinspectortip #homeinspector #yycrealty

Home Inspectors aren’t supposed to make changes/repairs when doing inspections. I broke this rule yesterday with this newly renoed bathroom that had pot lights not designed to be in contact with insulation. Smoke detectors were expired also. #homeinspectortip #yycrealty #homeinspector

Caulking around your bathtubs and showers should be replaced every 2yrs. Dap has a caulking product that they claim lasts 40yrs but I can’t verify that claim. #homeinspector #homeinspectortip #yycrealty

Friday funny! It’s December, have you got your lights set up? #homeinspectortip #homeinspection

Well, now the sellers know why that upstairs bedroom was so cold. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

It’s very important to stay on top of regular maintenance. This leaking tap is causing problems below the cabinet. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Nope! Can’t get into that bedroom #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Always picks up my weekend getting a 5 review! #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Handyman strikes again! This live wire is hanging down directly above a washing machine. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Tiled corners need caulking, not grout. Because of the 2 different planes the grout cracks and crumbles allowing moisture behind the tile. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty ... #yychomeinspector See more

Condensate from your hi-efficiency furnace should be directed to the floor drain. When changing your filter take the time to open the furnace cabinet. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Wood shavings for insulation used to be common. Older drafty houses breathe better, look at the condition of the roof sheathing, I’ve seen houses built in the last 10yrs in worse condition. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

Saving time! Shower while at the inspection #homeinspectortip #yycrealty #homeinspectorlife #homeinspection

This is what happens to cellulose insulation when the bathroom has no mechanical ventilation, and the homeowners don’t open the window. #homeinspectortip #homeinspection #yycrealty

$40 off the price of inspection for all military and 1st responders This is not a November special, it’s year round. Thanks for your sacrifices, and all that you do! #homeinspector #yycrealty ... #homeinspectortip See more

Below the deck isn’t the best location to have your water heater exhaust. This will cause ice in the winter, and early deterioration of the deck. #homeinspectortip #yycrealty #homeinspector

Not my favorite place to be, but I treat all home inspections as if they are for family. #homeinspectortip #yychomeinspection #yycrealty

Give me a when you find the gutter. Pruning trees and cleaning gutters is part of owning a home. Take care of yours before winter sets in! #homeinspectortip #yycrealty #yychomeinspector
