Holmes Approved Homes Inspection Stages

Newly added to Portfolio, Illustration/Model demonstrating the different inspection stages of the Holmes Approved Homes Certification Program.

Foundation: This is a detailed inspection of the structure that supports your entire home: the foundation—from the footings to the waterproof membrane system. This inspection protects your home’s resistance against moisture and basement leaks.

Durability: Your home’s exterior building wrap is inspected to ensure maximum mould and moisture protection. Electrical, plumbing and HVAC rough-in stage inspections are also conducted to confirm they have been properly installed.

Energy Efficiency: This inspection tests every part of your home’s construction that has a direct impact on its energy efficiency, including a tight building envelope and sealed air ducts, as well as maximized heating and cooling.

Roof Inspection: A full review of your home’s roof installation is completed, including soffits, trim, gutters and downspouts. This confirms they meet manufacturer warranty conditions to protect your home for generations.

Final Inspection: Your entire home is inspected to make sure it meets every one of Mike’s specifications. This inspection verifies minimum water infiltration, maximum moisture protection and proper ventilation systems for maximized indoor air quality.

Healthy Home: As a final inspection, your home is examined to make sure safer, healthier, more durable materials were properly installed—from paints, appliances and flooring to the HVAC and water purification systems.
