Independent thermal report for buyers and lenders.
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.
Air Leak is a sub-division of Leak.ca, the Greater Vancouver leak detection company trusted since 1999. Every site visit is delivered by certified technicians using calibrated equipment, with documented findings formatted for insurance, engineering and procurement use.
