Ben Hall, Your Penticton WETT Inspector
Every Penticton inspection is done by me, in person.
My background is 20+ years in construction as an electrician. Today I’m a certified WETT inspector and a CPBC licensed home inspector.
Peak is based in Kelowna and I travel to Penticton for WETT inspections. I look at each wood stove, fireplace and chimney personally, and give you the detailed answers I would expect for my own house.
