Why wett inspection works differently in New Tecumseth
Nearly every urgent wett inspection call we take in New Tecumseth began as something a homeowner noticed months earlier and reasonably decided to watch.
Infill and renovation work in New Tecumseth frequently reroutes venting without re-sizing it, and undersized or over-long runs are the single most common cause of poor draft we see.
Older New Tecumseth stock was built when soft lime mortar and clay liners were the standard; modern high-efficiency appliances vent very differently, and the mismatch causes condensation the original builder never planned for.
Across Colgan, Treetops, Tecumseth Pines, Briar Hill and Beeton, 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.
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.
