   House ownership has long been a goal for many Canadians. There are many choices to be made such as buying a new or used home, potential renovation expenses, and understanding the past history of home maintenance.


   At Rival, we focus on helping you understand safety, structural and mechanical system issues with your house. We will help you understand what maintenance will be needed on the home in the near future. Understanding these things early on could save thousands of dollars in unexpected expenses in the future.


   We encourage you to join us on as much of the inspection as possible and to ask lots of questions. We even have paper available for you to write on.

"Thanks again for taking the time to walk us through the structural design of our house."
