PCL Inspections
Make the Most of Our Experience with Our Home Inspection Services
At PCL Inspections, we offer a complete range of inspection services using the latest technologies and experience, including:
Pre-Purchase Inspection
Ensuring Confidence Before You Buy
Buying a home or property is a significant investment, and making an informed decision is crucial. Our Pre-Purchase Inspection goes beyond a simple evaluation, delving into every nook and cranny to assess the property’s condition thoroughly. We understand that the details matter, which is why our inspection covers structural integrity, electrical systems, plumbing, roofing, insulation, and more. Our goal is to identify both major and minor issues that could affect your investment or become costly surprises after the purchase. You will receive an exhaustive report that not only highlights immediate repair needs but also points out any aspects that might warrant further consideration. Armed with this information, you can negotiate more effectively, plan for future maintenance, or make an informed decision about your purchase.
WETT Inspection
Ensure the Safety and Efficiency of Your Wood-Burning Systems
At PCL Inspections, we understand the warmth and ambiance that a wood-burning appliance adds to a home. However, the safety and efficiency of these installations are paramount for your peace of mind and the well-being of your family. Our WETT inspections in Central Alberta, including Red Deer, Lacombe, Blackfalds, Sylvan Lake, Innisfail, Ponoka, Wetaskiwin, Edmonton, and Rocky Mountain House, are designed to ensure that your wood-burning systems are installed correctly and meet current safety standards.
Sewer Scope Inspection
Preventative Insight for Your Sewer System
Our Sewer Scope Inspection service is designed to offer a preventative and detailed view into the state of your property’s sewer lines. Utilizing high-resolution camera technology, we meticulously inspect your sewer system, identifying any potential issues such as blockages, tree root intrusions, cracks, or other damages that could lead to costly repairs if left unaddressed. Suitable for any type of sewer line material, our inspection provides you with a visual assessment and a detailed report, outlining our findings and recommending the best course of action to address any issues. This proactive approach can save you from unexpected disruptions and ensure the longevity and efficiency of your sewer system.
Septic Inspection
Comprehensive Evaluation for a Healthy Septic System
A malfunctioning septic system can lead to significant problems, from environmental hazards to costly repairs. Our Septic Inspection service is thorough, assessing every component of your system, including the tank, drain field, and associated pipework. We look for signs of backups, clogs, or leaks and evaluate the system’s overall health and efficiency. Recognizing the importance of a fully functional septic system, we provide detailed insights and actionable recommendations to address any issues. Whether you’re experiencing slow drainage or are due for a routine check-up, our experts ensure your septic system operates reliably, protecting your property and the environment.
Well Inspection
Ensuring the Purity and Safety of Your Water Supply
Water is a crucial resource, and the quality of your well water directly impacts your health and well-being. Our Well Inspection service evaluates your water system’s volume, pressure, and quality, ensuring it meets health and safety standards. We test for contaminants, including bacteria, nitrates, and other harmful substances, and assess the mechanical components of your well system to ensure efficient operation. Our comprehensive report provides you with a clear understanding of your well’s condition and any necessary recommendations for treatment or maintenance, ensuring your water supply remains safe and reliable for use.
Thermal Camera Imaging
Innovative Detection of Energy Efficiency and Moisture Issues
Our Thermal Camera Imaging service uses advanced technology to reveal what the naked eye cannot see. By detecting temperature variations in your property, we can identify hidden issues such as poor insulation, air leaks, moisture intrusion, and potential mold growth areas. This service is invaluable for homeowners looking to improve energy efficiency, address hidden water damage, or prevent mold. Our detailed imaging report highlights areas of concern and provides recommendations for remediation or improvement. With our thermal imaging inspection, you can take proactive steps to enhance your property’s comfort, safety, and energy efficiency.
ESDC Inspection (Employer Compliance Review)
Ensuring Compliance with Temporary Foreign Worker Regulations
The ESDC Inspection, or Employer Compliance Review, is a critical service for businesses employing temporary foreign workers in Canada. This inspection is designed to verify compliance with the conditions set by the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and the International Mobility Program. At PCL Inspections, we understand the complexity of these regulations and offer our expertise to help employers prepare for and navigate through the inspection process. Our service includes a thorough review of employment practices, wage distributions, workplace conditions, and record-keeping practices to ensure they meet government standards. We aim to equip employers with the knowledge and documentation needed to successfully pass an ESDC Inspection, minimizing the risk of fines, penalties, or prohibitions on employing foreign workers.
