Buying or selling a home?
A home inspector’s report often lists plumbing, gas or heating items to fix before closing. Send us the list and we will quote each item. Common ones:
- A gas line or appliance connection the inspector says is not to code
- Poly-B water lines
- Hot water tank straps, expansion tanks and leaks
- A sewer line flush or camera check that is a condition of sale
- Boiler or furnace service before possession
When the work is done, your invoice lists each item we fixed, so you can pass it to your buyer, insurer or strata. We are licensed plumbers and gas fitters, not home inspectors.
