How to save "Big-Time" on home heating!

Furnace_Heat Did you know that BC home owners can qualify for thousands of dollars in rebates for simply upgrading to an energy efficient furnace?

As most home owners are aware, heating one's home can be very expensive. Naturally we do what we can to save on heating costs: insulating walls and attics, sealing window frames and using a programmable thermostat. However, many of us are still hesitant to buy an energy efficient furnace because we think we can't afford it. Well, if you've been thinking about an upgrade, you might want to check out the significant savings now being offered in furnace rebates.

Quick Tip: Fire Safety Checklist

Fire_Safety In honour of Fire Safety Month, I encourage all of you to complete a Fire Safety Checklist. As a retired fire fighter I can tell you first hand about the devastation which fire can bring to home owners. Once it has the opportunity to start, a fire spreads quickly, destroys property and devastates lives. However, I also know that these tragedies can often be avoided by discovering the unseen fire hazards, in and around your home.

Standard Home Inspection for Buyers
This is the service which the majority of home buyers request. It involves a home tour or walk-through, a written report and ongoing telephone and email support.

The home walk-through involves an explanation of everything I have observed during the inspection; putting that information into perspective; what to expect for the next few years; and answering any related questions. I strongly recommend this inspection be listed in the buyer's 'subjects to sale' when making any offers on real estateChimneyInsp.

Our Client's Comments: "...highly recommend..."
"Peter Hansen was very professional and a pleasure to work with. He provided us with a considerable amount of his time (in excess of 4 hours) to inspect our new (or not so new!) single family home. He was detail oriented and thorough in his approach. Moreover, his end report was clear and organized. He took the time to review his feedback, concerns and explanations with us; which were easily understood. We were extremely pleased with Peter's services and would highly recommend him." ~ Mark and Kristen Skeans ~
