stuff.
A home inspection is kind of like an annual check-up at the doctor. It’s used to make sure things are working properly & it can be useful in spotting things that might eventually become a problem Some people actually think we come equipped with a crystal ball, a flux capacitor or even X-Ray vision! Unfortunately, we can’t go into the past, go “Back to the Future” or, like Superman, see through walls.
Disclaimers are boring so I won’t get into that but please understand we can only visually inspect what we see today. Every house is different just like every customer has different expectations of what a home inspection should be. However, we know some people like to read the report in its entirety. We’ve provided you with a full copy of our Standards of Practice & Disclaimers. HIT THE LOGO.
If you are reading this then obviously the details matter to you. You’d make a great home inspector.

The Roof Disclaimer
This roof section is based on what we could safely see at the time of inspection—whether from the ground, a ladder, or drone, depending on access and conditions. It’s a visual review only, and we follow InterNACHI and ASHI standards, which don’t require walking the roof or predicting how long it will last. Flashings, underlayments, and hidden areas aren’t fully visible. Weather, slope, materials, and roof age all affect what we can observe. For full limitations and scope, please check the disclaimer page found in the intro section of this report.

|
The Drone Disclaimer
This roof section was inspected using a drone to capture visual images from above. As per InterNACHI and ASHI standards, this is a visual-only review, based on what could be safely seen at the time. We do not lift shingles, walk on the roof, or predict remaining lifespan. Drone photos help give a broad overview, but they may not reveal hidden issues like flashing defects or early membrane failures. For full limitations and inspection scope, refer to the disclaimer page located in the intro section of this report.
|
|
Additional drone shots
We always prefer to see Metal in the valley. There is a bit of a choke point. Please consider heat trace Cable where the roof widen to where it narrows to prevent ice jamming. DAM’n. Some could call this architectural defect, you see it all the time, let’s just take preventative measures now.
|
|
|
Additional shots
Minor damage, not sure if this is just bruising and or blisters or from when the roof is installed. It’s typical to see some construction debris, and/or footprints, etc. Let’s have a roofer get up there and double check given with the holes that we saw on the lower roof over the garage.
|
|
|
Additional shots
Railing was being installed when we were on site double check how they fastened and anchored it through the duradeck. Either the patio door should be locked or there should be some kind of construction safety railing place.
|
|
|
Additional shots
I ran this one by Diaz and sons and Mike Ford at foothills roofing about whether or not it should have to go flashing. Both of them said yes. Also, please remember to extend the one downspout over top double garage past the post not before.

Gram-Shot
**Bonus Aerial Views** We’ve included a few additional drone shots to provide a broader perspective of the property and its surroundings. These images offer a unique vantage point, showcasing the home’s placement within the neighborhood, nearby features, and the overall landscape. While not part of the formal inspection, we thought it might be helpful to give you a better sense of the area from above. It’s just a little extra context to support your decision-making and help you visualize the property’s full potential.

Otherwise known as the “The Heavy Lifter”. Your garage door is the largest moving part in your home & is used multiple times daily. It’s very important that you take the time to perform regular maintenance. Check cables, spring coils, lubricate moving parts, replace the weather gasket, replace the rollers, tighten up the hardware & ensure the pressure sensor has been adjusted for safety. No time for a check-up? Call a garage door professional to schedule a tune-up.

Insulation Depth
There's no getting around it: If your house is in cold weather, keeping it warm in winter is expensive. Having the correct amount of attic insulation can help you maintain a comfortable temperature throughout your home & help save $$$ on your energy bills. *Plus, it could help prevent major issues like ice dams or even attic rain. QUICK FACTS: Attic insulation is the easiest & most cost-effective upgrade to a home. A properly insulated attic can save you an estimated 10-50% on your heating bill.

The Attic Disclaimer
This attic section is based on a visual inspection of accessible areas only, in line with InterNACHI and ASHI standards. We assess insulation, ventilation, structure, and signs of moisture or damage. Tight spaces, low clearance, or stored items may limit access and visibility. We do not disturb insulation or move stored contents. Some areas may not be safely reachable. Conditions can also change seasonally. For full limitations and scope, refer to the disclaimer page found in the intro section of this report.

Inspections Explained
A home inspector is like a house detective, methodically walking through the home, inside & out, to assess key systems such as the roof, structure, plumbing, electrical, heating, & cooling. We don’t guess or make assumptions, we look for visible signs, use specialized tools when appropriate, & take photos to document what’s functioning properly, what’s showing signs of wear, & what may need further attention. It’s important to understand that this is a visual inspection. We won’t be opening up walls, dismantling components, or moving furniture or personal items. We inspect what’s accessible & visible. Our job is to provide you with a clear snapshot of its current condition, & help you understand what’s typical aging versus what might require repairs or further evaluation.

The Thermal Disclaimer*
Thermal imaging and moisture meters are used as tools to help identify temperature differences or elevated moisture in select areas. These tools do not see behind walls or guarantee hidden issues will be found. We scan accessible, high-risk areas, but this is not a full infrared or leak detection survey. Readings depend on surface conditions at the time. For more on the limits of thermal and moisture tools, see the disclaimer page in the intro section of this report.

Better Reports
Every photo we take has a purpose.
Some show defects that need fixing.
Others show components that are in good shape, working as intended.
And some? They just help tell the story—from a different angle, a wider view, or a close-up that captures the details. Together, they give you a baseline.
A visual reference you can return to months or even years later.
When someone asks, “Was that like that before?”—you’ll have the answer. This isn’t about overkill. It’s about protection.
Because when it comes to your home, clarity always costs less than guessing.

Framing 101
Behind every wall is a framework — much like your own skeleton. Vertical studs form the bones, while cripples support around openings. King and jack studs work together to hold up headers over doors and windows, spreading the load. Top plates cap the walls and tie everything together, while bottom plates anchor it all to the floor. This unseen structure is critical to the strength, stability, and alignment of your home. Just like a healthy body depends on solid bones, your home depends on this framing to stand true.

Basement Slab
I can imagine that this was hoarded before poor. Cracks noted. Keep your eye on them.
Radon Rough-In
This consists of a porous layer & a barrier beneath the slab & radon piping that extends from below the slab.

Radon Canada.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas produced by the decay of uranium in soil and rock. It is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, making it difficult to detect without specific testing. In Canada, radon can accumulate in homes, particularly in basements and ground floors, through cracks in foundations or gaps around pipes. Exposure to high levels of radon is a major health risk, significantly increasing the likelihood of lung cancer, making it the second leading cause after smoking. Regular testing and mitigation are recommended to ensure safety. Conduit for main waterline open and exposed, which could lead to radon intrusion be aware. Like we spoke about this morning, let’s just get it done for the kids and their health and safety.

Sump Pump.
These prevent basement flooding by removing accumulated water, directing it away from the home's foundation. Maintenance tips include regular testing by pouring water into the sump pit, cleaning the grate, and checking the power source and backup system. Ensure the discharge line is clear and directs water away from the property to prevent recirculation. Install a battery backup to keep the pump operational during power outages and consider a water alarm for early flood detection.

Backflow Preventer
This allows water to flow in one direction & aids it preventing it from coming back. Not tested. Outside of SOPs: also noticed a couple clean cover plates missing. Have Builder install.. Not Inspected

|
|
Back Flow Preventor.
Prevents sewage backup into a home during heavy rains or blockages. It automatically closes when water flows backward, sealing the sewer line. This protects the property from costly damage and ensures wastewater flows away from the home as intended. Regular maintenance is essential to keep it functioning correctly.

Inspection Address
133 Sunstone way
Rocky View, Alberta
This Agreement is Between
Gregory Johnson as ("Client") and Twenty20 & Co. as ("Company")
1. Preamble
Subject to the terms and conditions of this service contract (the "Service Contract"), dated as of the date signed by the Client on the signature page, the Client wishes to engage Company and the Inspector, agree to perform the inspection at the address provided above (the "Dwelling") on the date and time noted above ("Inspection Date") in consideration of the payments, covenants and agreements set out herein:
2. Purpose / Scope
The purpose of the Inspection is to take reasonable efforts to endeavor to detect the presence of home defects in the Dwelling by performing a visual, non-invasive inspection of the readily accessible components of the Dwelling and provide a same-day written report (or within 1 business day) containing high-level findings and identification of the defects observed and deemed material by Inspector (the "Report"). The scope of the Inspection is limited to a visible, non-invasive inspection of the readily accessible components of the Dwelling existing and apparent on the date and time of the Inspection, utilizing, where applicable and appropriate, the InterNACHI Standards of Practice as a guideline unless otherwise noted or not possible. The Inspection excludes latent defects that cannot be reasonably detected by Inspector in connection in a one-day inspection aimed at producing a same-day report. The Inspection is not a building code, title, or by-law compliance inspection. As a courtesy only, the Inspector may note conditions that contribute to possible home issues or offer other commentary, but such comments are not part of the Inspection.
4. Client Responsibilities / Exclusivity
It is the responsibility of the Client to obtain from the Dwelling owner a disclosure of any known defects on or before the Inspection Date. The Report is intended for the exclusive use and benefit of the Client. The Client agrees to give the Inspector permission to discuss observations with real estate agents or other interested parties. INSPECTOR AND COMPANY (AND THEIR SUPPLIERS) ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR USE BY THIRD PARTIES AND IF THE REPORT IS PROVIDED TO ANOTHER THIRD PARTY BY YOU OR ANY PERSON ACTING ON YOUR BEHALF, YOU RELEASE INSPECTOR AND COMPANY (AND THEIR SUPPLIERS) FROM ANY LIABILITY AND AGREE TO PAY ANY ASSOCIATED COSTS.
agreement
7. Assignment / Litigation
This Agreement is not transferable or assignable by the Client. The parties agree that any litigation arising out of this Agreement shall be filed in Alberta. If Inspector and/or Company is the substantially prevailing party in any such litigation, the Client shall pay all costs, expenses, and legal fees of Inspector and Company in defending said claims.
8. Excluded / Included
The Inspection will NOT address environmental concerns including, but not limited to: air quality, water quality/quantity, sealed/underground fuel storage tanks, asbestos, radon gas, molds, toxins, lead paint, or soil contamination. The inspection report will also NOT address infestation by wood boring insects, rodents or other vermin. The Client understands and acknowledges that it may be necessary to call on specialists in these areas to identify and evaluate these risks. The Inspection contract does not include an inspection of any outbuildings or other structures not attached to the dwelling other than a garage or carport. The Inspection will include an inspection of the following components of the dwelling unless access is limited, weather or other conditions do not permit it: roofing; flashings or chimney; exterior including lot gradings, walkways, driveways, retaining walls, patios and decks; structure; electrical; heating and cooling systems (inspection of which shall be limited to external visual condition only); insulation; plumbing; interior.
10. Release / Disclaimer of Warranty
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE CLIENT HEREBY RELEASES AND WAIVES ANY CLAIM IT MAY HAVE AGAINST THE INSPECTOR AND COMPANY (AND THEIR SUPPLIERS) FOR DEFECTS, ISSUES AND OTHER THINGS THAT MAY NOT REASONABLY BE DETERMINED DURING THE REGULAR COURSE OF A VISUAL INSPECTION OF READILY ACCESSIBLE COMPONENTS OF A DWELLING. THE CLIENT EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE INSPECTION AND REPORT ARE NOT MEANT TO REFLECT OR CONSTITUTE A COMPREHENSIVE HOME INSPECTION (WHICH WOULD REQUIRE AN INSPECTION OF THE DWELLING BEYOND A VISUAL INSPECTION OF READILY ACCESSIBLE COMPONENTS). ACCORDINGLY, THE CLIENT EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE SERVICES AND REPORTS ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS WITHOUT ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. NEITHER THE INSPECTOR OR COMPANY (OR THEIR SUPPLIERS) REPRESENT NOR WARRANT THAT THE INSPECTION OR REPORT WILL MEET THE CLIENT'S REQUIREMENTS OR THAT THEY WILL BE ERROR-FREE. THE INSPECTION AND THE REPORT ARE IN NO WAY A GUARANTEE, WARRANTY OR INSURANCE POLICY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE FUTURE USE, OPERABILITY, HABITABILITY, SUITABILITY OF THE DWELLING OR THAT HIDDEN DEFECTS DO OR DO NOT EXIST.
11. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (I) IN NO EVENT SHALL COMPANY AND INSPECTOR (OR THEIR SUPPLIERS) BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR FOR THE LOSS OF THE USE OF THE DWELLING WHATSOEVER; AND (II) DAMAGES OR LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO DIRECT AND PROVABLE DAMAGES AND SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAYABLE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT BY THE CLIENT.
agreement
12. Entire Agreement
This Agreement represents the entire agreement between the parties. No statement or promise made by Company or its respective officers, agents, contractors or employees shall be binding.
13. Payment / Report Delivery
