The Vaughan scheduling window
We aim to complete pre-winter wett inspection on Vaughan homes by the last Saturday in October. Book by Labour Day for that window — after that we're scheduling against weather.
Best month to schedule wett inspection in Vaughan
Late September through mid-November is the sweet spot: Vaughan averages 146cm of snow starting in December, so roof access closes fast. Spring bookings (April–May) are second-best and often 10–15% cheaper.
Common questions
What warranty do you offer on wett inspection in Vaughan?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
Is wett inspection covered by home insurance in Vaughan?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
Do you offer same-day wett inspection in Vaughan?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Vaughan for most standard scopes.
Do you need a permit for wett inspection in Vaughan?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Vaughan. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Are you WETT and WSIB certified?
Yes — WETT SITE-Comprehensive #C-46082, CSIA #12408, and active WSIB #7248194. Certificates emailed on request before the job.
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Vaughan?
Yes. Condo boards in Vaughan typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
When's the best time of year for wett inspection in Vaughan?
Late September through mid-November with Vaughan averaging 146cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
