In L'Ancienne-Lorette, this inspection takes the local context into account, especially condos, plexes and homes renovated for resale. The inspector adapts the examination to that context, and the report clearly states what it means for the property and which additional checks could be useful.

Original drains, old slabs and water service lines: in L'Ancienne-Lorette, the below-ground examination focuses on the hidden components of fifty-year-old homes.

Foundation, pyrite and pyrrhotite assessment: what the inspector checks in L'Ancienne-Lorette

A foundation that was already repaired isn't a bad sign in itself. What makes the difference is the proof: who did the work, on which professional's recommendation, with what warranty. A complete file is often worth more than a foundation that was never checked.

In the basement, the inspector looks for efflorescence at the bottom of walls and water marks in corners, signs of an original drain at the end of its life. They recommend a camera if nothing shows the drain was replaced.
