One visit with your home inspection
Booking the WDO with your home inspection keeps everything on one schedule, with the reports delivered together.
What it covers
A WDO inspection is visual and covers accessible areas. Wood hidden behind walls, flooring, insulation or stored belongings can't be seen, and the report notes any areas that were inaccessible.
