Our Inspectors
All SENWI inspectors are members of the BCIPI (British Columbia Institute of Property Inspectors) and have been accredited by the ASTTBC (Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of British Columbia). Our inspections also meet or exceed the strict BCIPI Standards of Inspection and the institute’s Code of Ethics.
We are proud members of the North Vancouver Chamber of Commerce and maintain a membership with the Better Business Bureau, meeting both organizations’ code of ethics and business practice requirements.
Our principal inspector, Sean Wiens, completed the BCIPI Sponsored House Inspection Program at BCIT in the spring of 2007 and has been a proud member of BCIPI since Sept 2007. He has an exceptional understanding of building systems design and how this affects the maintenance and durability of building structures. Sean keeps current in the industry by attending industry seminars, technical courses, and continually researching the new products being used in the housing market and the new (or old) problems that seem to be prevalent in construction today.
Sean’s background includes a 10-year term as Strata President for a 59-unit multi-family dwelling where he was responsible for performing a majority of the day-to-day maintenance on the building. During this time, he also worked with the property manager to vet contractors for the larger jobs and to ensure that they performed their duties to the required standards. Sean has also been involved in building renovation industry over the last 2 decades and his jobs include gutting and the complete remodelling of a condo-style apartment under permit in the City of Vancouver.
Sean now stays involved in the construction industry in a casual capacity and has been seen at most of the “neighbourhood” projects in his area lending a tool and a hand. Sean’s passion includes working with various organizations and levels of government to try and improve the minimal codes for building in BC and to raise the standards for home inspections in BC.
Sean is also a member of the Independent Home Inspectors of North America and as such guarantees you an inspection and report free from any third party influence. Visit Our Guarantee for more information on this subject.
