Westmount Home Inspection FAQ
How much does a home inspection cost in Westmount?
A standard residential inspection costs $300 to $600. Older and larger homes take more time than a condo or a smaller house. Call (514) 561-4515 for a quote based on your property.
Is the inspector RBQ-certified?
Yes. Farzin Sedaghat holds RBQ certificate 5888-0246-T1, which you can look up in the Régie du bâtiment du Québec registry. RBQ certification becomes mandatory for every building inspector in Quebec on October 1, 2027.
Do you test for mould, radon or asbestos?
No. A home inspection is visual and follows the APCHQ Standard of Practice. We note visible signs of water infiltration, condensation or suspected mould with photos, and we refer you to a qualified specialist when testing is warranted.
Can you inspect a condo in Westmount?
Yes. We inspect the private unit, including its interior, plumbing, electrical, heating and ventilation. Common areas such as the roof, garage and hallways are inspected only with written permission from the syndicate of co-owners.
Do you inspect older homes in Westmount?
Yes. Older homes are a regular part of our work in Westmount. We describe the visible condition of the foundation, roof, electrical panel, plumbing and heating, and recommend a specialist when the signs point to a larger problem.
Can you tell me how long an older roof or boiler will last?
No. Under the APCHQ Standard of Practice we do not predict how long a component will last. We describe its visible condition, note its age when it is shown on a plate, and point out anything that needs repair or a specialist’s opinion.
