Know Exactly What You’re Buying

Buying a home is likely the biggest financial decision of your life. And most of the time, you’re making that decision without being able to see what’s behind the walls, under the floors, or buried in the mechanical room.

That’s where a thorough home inspection changes everything. Not a cursory walkthrough. Not a 75-page report that reads like a legal document. A clear, complete picture of the home you’re about to buy, so you can negotiate from a position of knowledge, plan for what’s ahead, and sign those papers knowing exactly what you’re getting into.

What Sets JBR Inspections Apart

Thermal Imaging on Every Home

Most inspectors charge extra for thermal imaging. I use it on every inspection, no upsell required. It catches what eyes can't, including hidden leaks, heat loss, and moisture problems behind walls.

Drone 4K Roof Photography

Weather permitting, the drone goes up on every property. A 4K aerial view of the rooftop catches deteriorating shingles, damaged flashing, and drainage problems that are impossible to spot from the ground. You get the images in your report.

Clear Reports, Same Day

Your inspection report is generated on-site and emailed to you and your realtor the same day. It runs 14 to 15 pages of straightforward, actionable information. No jargon. No 75-page confusion. Just what you need to know, when you need to know it.

What Edmonton Homebuyers Say About JBR Inspections

Specialised Services Available

Beyond the standard inspection, JBR offers add-ons for buyers who want a more complete picture.

Mould Investigation

I’m certified to conduct mould investigations and can perform on-site mould testing if conditions during the inspection raise concerns.

Sewer Scope

Through my partnership with Snakes and Drains, a sewer scope can be arranged for your inspection day. Strongly recommended for older homes and acreage properties with septic systems.

Post-Purchase Warranty Suite

Every inspection I do comes with 90-day mechanical coverage, 90-day mould remediation protection, 90-day sewer protection up to $4,000 in repairs, a 5-year platinum roof leak warranty, and lifetime enrolment in RecallCheck for manufacturer appliance recalls.
