Gaby Pina :
Advice needed: my house is a 2 story (not selling it) I have a leak from one of a bathroom shower or tub upstairs because I see a stain on the ceiling downstairs. To find out if it’s something more serious like a pipe or exterior wall crack or window sealant or something simple as a grout issue do I need to hire an inspector? If so, which tools should I ask the inspector to have/bring besides the thermal imaging/ flir/ infrared to find out if it’s a pipe or wall or window or grout issue? I’m trying to avoid an insurance claim. Or should I simply rely on a plumber to do the leak test?

City does framing inspection. Don’t need you. Final walk through city and home buyer already does. One year warranty goes through tarion in Canada.

Do the 1 yr at 11 months so you can file any warrant issues before the 1 yr is up.

I work in new construction and I can't express enough how much people need to babysit their builds. Crews are going too fast and quality is suffering

Do this. We built and didn’t do all these and we have found some major issues like bad roof install and improper HVAC.

Is it possible to be present for said inspections? I know around my area, some inspectors are friends with contractors, and will do literal drive by.

Hire an engineer for new construction! They see everything an inspector sees and way more! They live and die by the residential and building codes!

Good advice before the walls are closed up. A lot of the county inspectors are on the take and will approve electrical when they shouldn't.
