Inspections in Colwood

Colwood pairs long-established neighbourhoods with substantial newer development toward the water. The result is a mix of 1960s-to-1980s housing that has been added to and updated over time, alongside homes finished in the last few years.

Terrain matters here. A lot of Colwood sits on slope, and water moving downhill toward a foundation is one of the most consistent findings I document. Properties with west and south-west exposure also take weather directly, so cladding, window flashing and deck structures get particular attention.

Colwood has a range of property types and ages. During an inspection, I help clients understand significant conditions, maintenance concerns and areas that may require further investigation.

My job is to help you understand the condition of the property you're considering — not simply provide a list of defects.

What I watch for here

Surface water and perimeter drainage on sloped lots

Retaining walls and grade changes close to the foundation

Exterior moisture on weather-exposed elevations

Additions and renovations of differing standards
