Meet your inspector

Hi, I’m Ben Hall

The person you book is the person who shows up.

I’m a certified WETT inspector and a CPBC licensed home inspector, with 20+ years of construction experience as an electrician behind me.

Peak is based right here in Kelowna. I inspect every wood stove, fireplace and chimney myself, because Okanagan families deserve the same detailed answers I’d want for my own home.
