The local factors behind wett inspection in Mississauga
Two houses on the same Mississauga street, built the same year, can need completely different wett inspection work — and usually do.
Wind loading off Lake Ontario pushes driving rain against the south and west faces of a house, which is why water entry so often shows up on one side of a Mississauga home and nowhere else.
Many Mississauga properties were re-roofed at least once without the flashing being re-detailed, leaving a cosmetic seal doing structural work.
Across Fairview Meadows, Central Erin Mills, Sheridan, Cooksville and Sheridan Park, the housing stock changes street by street, and the correct method changes with it. A century home with a soft-brick stack does not get the same treatment as a 2010 build with a factory-built vent — using one method on both is how systems get damaged.
If you live anywhere near Square One, the practical takeaway is that a wett inspection visit should start with an assessment, not a tool. Any crew that begins work before telling you what they found is guessing on your behalf.
