Pre-Purchase Thermal Audit in Burnaby

Before you close on a property, an independent thermal audit identifies hidden moisture, missing insulation and envelope failures that wouldn't show in a standard home inspection. We produce these for buyers, lenders and conveyancing solicitors, and the reports are structured to inform purchase-price negotiation or post-closing repair budgeting. The work is non-invasive, completes within a couple of hours for most homes, and delivers within 48 hours of the site visit.

What infrareds typically finds in Burnaby

Envelope failures on tower podium decks, missing insulation in 1960s split-level homes, attic ventilation issues on Capitol Hill.

Burnaby's built environment — concrete high-rises around Metrotown/Brentwood, 1960s–80s single-family residential, light-industrial in Big Bend — shapes how pre-purchase thermal audit is delivered locally. Burnaby's split personality — rapidly densifying tower districts in Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed alongside long-established residential pockets — means leak detection here ranges from 50-storey concrete inspections to mid-century bungalow plumbing.
