Certified Home Inspections in Cornwall & Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry

Property Inspection Network provides professional home inspections in Cornwall and the surrounding Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry (SDG) counties. Cornwall's housing market has seen growing interest from Ottawa-area buyers seeking affordability — and with that growth comes increasing demand for qualified, independent home inspections.

Whether you're buying a heritage home in Cornwall's established east or west end, a newer build in the surrounding SDG region, or a rural property in Glengarry or Dundas county, our certified inspectors deliver the thorough assessment you need.

What to Expect from a Cornwall Home Inspection

Cornwall's housing stock spans more than a century of construction, from older brick homes in the city core to postwar bungalows in residential neighbourhoods and newer suburban construction on the city's outskirts. Rural SDG properties add another dimension — acreages, older farmhouses, and properties with well and septic systems.

Our inspectors are experienced with the full range of construction types and eras found in Eastern Ontario, and understand what's specific to Cornwall's housing market:

Older homes in Cornwall's established neighbourhoods may have aging electrical systems (60-amp panels, aluminum wiring), older plumbing (galvanized or cast iron), and basement moisture challenges common to homes built on the flat St. Lawrence lowlands.

Rural SDG properties require attention to well systems, septic systems, heating system type (propane is common outside municipal gas service), and outbuilding condition. We recommend pairing your home inspection with a septic inspection for rural properties.

New construction in Cornwall and surrounding communities benefits from a pre-occupancy or new construction inspection that verifies systems are properly installed and commissioned before closing.
