REACTIVE AIRWAYS/ALLERGEN INSPECTIONS
A Registered Respiratory Therapist performs all Reactive Airway inspections. We assess living spaces, ventilation systems, crawlspaces, and personal belongings to optimize the air quality of those with complex asthma, COPD and fibrosis. We evaluate your home or work environments for allergens and irritants. The primary step for control of your reactive airways is controlling your environmental exposures.
New construction inspections
Newly constructed homes need an objective third-party to inspect. The city or regional district inspectors often don’t catch everything, but we’ve been trained to have a keen eye for anything that could compromise a new home’s lifetime or safety.

Frequently Asked Questions
Buying or selling a home can be a stressful experience, but we’re here to ensure you know what to expect during your home inspection.
A home inspection includes checking for any structural issues such as foundation cracks, roof leaks, plumbing issues, electrical wiring, heating/cooling systems, insulation, windows, doors, chimneys, etc. Depending on how big the property is, a home inspection typically takes 2-3 hours.
Ensure all inspection points are free from clutter, including any closets that might lead to a crawlspace or attic, and clearing some space around your home’s perimeter. It’s also important to check the functionality of all built-in appliances, electric, and gas. If you don’t plan to attend the inspection, make sure your inspector has access to the home, and all pets are properly contained or moved.
A home doesn’t pass or fail an inspection. Instead, it is a thorough audit of a home’s components. In most cases, there will be concerns marked on the inspection report, but these are strictly informative.
While you can legally skip a home inspection in many cases, doing so could mean you may end up buying a home that has major issues that need to be fixed.
While a home inspector may recommend some minor repairs, they are not qualified to make major repairs. He or she can provide information about what needs to be repaired — and it might be helpful to know that information — but the decision to actually do the work lies solely with the homeowner. Not only does this give you the freedom to choose your contractors, but it also helps prevent a conflict of interest.
For sellers, it allows you to get out in front of any potential issues, which can help prevent contracts getting canceled at the last minute. For buyers, a home inspection will identify concerns and red flags and can give you peace of mind before purchasing a home.
