What We Look For in Coquitlam Homes
Coquitlam has a high number of detached single-family homes alongside major condo development near Town Centre, and the city's hillside neighbourhoods bring considerations that flatter areas don't face. Our inspections are shaped by what's actually common in each part of the city.
Sloped LotsBurke Mountain Drainage
Burke Mountain has a number of sloped lots that can suffer structural damage or moisture intrusion if rain and ground water aren't handled properly. We pay close attention to surface grading, foundation drainage, retaining walls, and signs of water intrusion at the base of the home.
Established NeighbourhoodsMaillardville & Town Centre
Older homes near Maillardville and the Town Centre core have been through multiple owners and renovations over the decades. We check carefully for outdated electrical, older plumbing materials, and signs of unpermitted basement suite conversions.
Newer ConstructionWestwood Plateau & Burke Mountain Builds
Newer homes on Westwood Plateau and Burke Mountain are generally well-built, but new construction isn't defect-free. We check workmanship on rainscreen wall assemblies, window and door flashing, and mechanical systems — items that matter for 2-5-10 New Home Warranty claims.
High-Density CondosTown Centre Strata Buildings
Coquitlam's Town Centre is one of Metro Vancouver's designated regional growth areas, with significant condo density. For strata units, we review accessible common areas like roofs, boiler rooms, and parking levels alongside the unit itself.
