Pre-Inspection Agreement
Below is the standard agreement signed before every inspection. A copy is sent for digital signature once your booking is confirmed.
Ottawa Full Spectrum Home Inspection ('Inspector') will perform a visual, non-invasive inspection of the readily accessible components of the property identified by the Client. The inspection is conducted in general accordance with the OAHI Standards of Practice and applicable Ontario legislation.
Roof and exterior, structural components, electrical service and panel, plumbing supply and drainage, HVAC systems, interior finishes, insulation, ventilation, and built-in appliances. Items concealed by finishes, stored items, or weather conditions are excluded.
This inspection is not technically exhaustive and does not constitute a warranty, guarantee, or insurance policy. The Inspector does not test for code compliance, mould, asbestos, radon, lead, pests, septic, or buried tanks unless contracted separately. Cosmetic deficiencies are noted only when significant.
A written digital report including photographs and findings will be delivered to the Client within 24 hours of the inspection, typically the same day. The report is for the sole use of the named Client and may not be transferred without written consent.
Payment is due upon completion of the inspection unless otherwise arranged. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled time may be subject to a $100 administrative fee.
The Client agrees that the maximum liability of the Inspector, regardless of cause, is limited to the fee paid for the inspection. The Inspector is not liable for repairs, replacements, or consequential damages.
Any dispute arising out of this agreement shall first be submitted to mediation. The Client agrees to notify the Inspector in writing of any concerns within 14 days of report delivery and prior to any repair, alteration, or replacement of the item in question.
