Welcome to Pillar To Post. As part of your community, we are pleased to provide our local customers, real estate professionals, home buyers and home sellers with a home inspection service that brings to the buying or selling of a home unmatched quality, precision, integrity, and professionalism.

We’re number one for a reason: Pillar To Post has been named #1 in the Home Inspections category by Entrepreneur Magazine in its Annual Franchise 500 issue for five years running … because we work to earn your trust and confidence with every home inspection we perform every day!

Pillar to Post has been conducting home inspections in the West Kootenay Region using the Pillar To Post approach, training and resources, since early 1998. Pillar To Post is proud to be a Canadian-owned company that has also enjoyed great success in the United States. We owe that success to the integrity of our training program and the diligence and honesty of our dedicated franchise network.

This franchise has completed over 1600 home inspections. The knowledge and experience we have gained is a rich and constantly growing resource for our home purchasing and selling clients. We help our buying clients to a more informed and satisfying home-buying decision; and assist our selling clients to a faster, more rewarding sale of their home. We consider it a privilege that you chose us to inspect the largest investment you will make. Therefore, we take great care in the inspection to furnish you with all the information you will need to make an informed decision. That “Moment of Truth” when emotion hits reality can be difficult. So we walk you through the entire process and go over the report with you. We show you what we found, and explain how it can be dealt with. We answer all of your questions – no “drive-by” inspection from us!

Areas to be inspected include:

  • Property and site
  • Structure and foundations
  • Plumbing Systems
  • Electrical Systems
  • Heating & Cooling Systems
  • Walls, Floor & Ceilings
  • Porches, Patios, & Decks
  • Roof , Chimney & Attics
  • Gutters & Drainage
  • Exterior and Garage

All Pillar To Post Home Inspectors undergo rigorous training at our corporate training facility and on-site in homes. Only when they have successfully completed training are individuals qualified as Pillar To Post certified home inspectors. Once certified, Pillar To Post inspectors are also required to continually upgrade their skills to keep current with new technologies and professional standards.

In addition, all Pillar To Post home inspectors must carry Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance.

Sandy Byers has completed intensive training through the Carson Dunlop Home Inspection Training Program, as well as the Pillar to Post training. She is currently a member with CAHPI (BC), and has her RHI (Registered Home Inspector). Call Sandy today and schedule your home inspection.
