Around the house, the final grading, window wells, downspouts and backfill against the foundation are checked. A lot that sends water back toward the house is one of the most common causes of leaks in recent construction.

In a Victorian house in Sherbrooke's Vieux-Nord, the inspector examines porches, cornices, wood windows and the steep roof. They also check rear extensions, common and often less well built than the main body.
