It is very important, that
before you hire a Home Inspection Company, that you ask for these credentials.
All inspectors must have completed a minimum level of education. The regulation also sets out the requirements for home inspection contracts - and for the inspection report - that the inspector provides to the consumer.
Home inspection businesses must have:
a licence from the Government of Alberta
a bond or other form of security
errors and omissions insurance.
Home inspectors who are working for an inspection business must have a licence. To have a licence, a home inspector must:
- be employed by a home inspection business
- be a Registered Home Inspector (RHI) or Certified Master Inspector (CMI)
