Le Maison Home Contractors - Home Inspector in Peterborough, Lindsay and the Kawarthas


Paul Peterson

CREDENTIALS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE

Choosing the right home inspector can be difficult to research. I trust that you will want me to inspect your home once you review my credentials.  I promise to do a thorough job with the right tools and instruments.   A home inspection requires 3 to 4 hours of work and a good home inspection depends heavily on the individual inspector’s experience and building knowledge. I am a professional contractor and know what it takes to build a good home and I can recognize defects that will cause you grief in the future.    I promise that I will give you a good inspection and a detailed report!

This is my pledge!
