Chinese Drywall - In Vancouver?

I have been assured by the group Americans Watchdog that cases of Chinese drywall have been confirmed in the Greater Vancouver Area.

If you know or suspect that you have a problem with Chinese drywall and you live in the greater Vancouver area, I would like to hear from you. I would like to document at least one case of this material in use so that I can elevate the story in the media and with local advocate groups. Right now all of the building organizations are discounting that there is a problem and in my view ignoring what I think is a real liability for BC residents.

I am not looking to charge you a fee to inspect, I am only after confirmation that the problem exists in the Vancouver area.

Please contact me if you suspect a problem.

Thanks

Home Inspection Tools

The two most important tools an inspector has in their arsenal is their brain and their eyes.

I do not know but will tell you when I see it.

Realtor referrals for inspectors

At SENWI, we insist that any inspector that provides services for us be independent from Realtors and usually maintain a membership in the Independent Home Inspectors of North America and must take the “No Conflict of Interest Pledge”.

It is critical that the inspector provides an unbiased evaluation free from any influence. Even a good/professional relationship between a Realtor and Home Inspector can influence the service that a client receives as the relationship between the Realtor and Inspector can become stronger than the relationship between the Inspector and Client. We believe this type of relationship is not in the best interests of the consumer.

Our inspectors do not solicit Realtors for referrals, do not direct any form of advertising to Realtors, and do not provide or receive any form of compensation to or from Realtors,

When you hire a SENWI inspector you are guaranteed an inspector free from all Realtor or other Third Party influences, an inspector who is working solely for you and in your best interests.
