What We Look For in Surrey Homes
Surrey is the largest city by land area in Metro Vancouver, organized into six distinct town centres rather than one downtown core. A condo in Whalley, a family home in Fleetwood, and an estate property in South Surrey each come with a different set of things worth checking closely. Our inspections reflect what's actually common in each part of the city.
Established Family HomesFleetwood & Cloverdale
Fleetwood and Cloverdale are long-established, family-oriented areas with a mix of housing types and ages. We check carefully for outdated electrical, aging roofs and mechanical systems, and signs of past renovations that weren't permitted or completed to code.
Newer ConstructionClayton & Grandview Heights
Clayton and Grandview Heights have seen significant new development, with detached homes and townhouses still being built. 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.
Coastal & Larger PropertiesSouth Surrey Estates
South Surrey properties range from townhomes to larger detached estates near Crescent Beach and Morgan Creek. We pay particular attention to drainage, retaining structures, and moisture conditions given the area's proximity to the coast.
Secondary SuitesBasement & Suite Conditions
Secondary suites are common throughout Surrey, particularly in Newton, Fleetwood, and Whalley. We assess fire separation, egress windows, electrical panel capacity, and moisture conditions in below-grade living spaces.
