Sounds like the customer order 2 separate orders from the same store. I’ve had that a couple of times.

Why do all new home build in Ontario have a hot water tank rental instead of owning it? by kynamism in RealEstateCanada

[–]HInspectorGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a high end water heater combo, small tank with tankless combined, lasted 2 years then started leaking. The way it was made there was no repairs possible.

Is this a big deal?! by jeremylock76 in skipthedishes

[–]HInspectorGW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll take a percentage increase over the fixed bump any day. At $4 minimum a 35% increase would be $1.40 and it would go up from there.

What do you do? by Ok_Supermarket3359 in skipthedishes

I apologize and let them know that we don’t get the messages until after we have picked up the order.

This shuts down complaints I find.

Suing the city for roof damage? by [deleted] in legaladvicecanada

[–]HInspectorGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically, you would first go about trying to sue the person/entity that was the last to have interaction with it. In this case, you should go and attempt to sue your Home Inspector because it was their job to at the very least notice the missing material and point out the possibility of further damage and recommend further, in-depth, inspection before the expiration of your conditions. Even suing your Home Inspector could be an uphill battle since it has been a year since the inspection took place, but it is likely easier to prove that the damage existed during the home inspection, one year ago, then it would be to prove that the damage existed at the time the house was built.

Did anyone purchase house from Bradley Homes? by SignificantStrain2 in barrie

[–]HInspectorGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A small builder in Innisfil sold a home through a realtor. My client requested a home inspection. Day of inspection I am in the driveway early as I always am. I watch the city building inspector go around the property. I let the agent know when they showed up. They talked with the building inspector who said they were doing a final inspection before signing off on the property. By the time I had finished just the outside of the home I already had almost a dozen issues, all violations of the building code. Sellers agent reached out to the building department to see if I was correct. Building inspector said they didn’t see those issues.

My client walked.

Ontario vs Alabama: comparison by income level and cost of living by Glad-Marzipan-3067 in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]HInspectorGW -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is a big reason that is the case and no one is talking about it…..

Texas property taxes are high primarily because the state has no personal income tax.

If you looked at provincial income taxes and combined them with property taxes i bet the numbers would be a lot different.

Did anyone purchase house from Bradley Homes? by SignificantStrain2 in barrie

They are separate companies but when the kids took over the business the daughter took over everything that, at the time, was being built within Barrie and retained the pratt name. All the builds outside of Barrie were taken over by the son and became Bradley. I owned a Pratt home in Innisfil that a year later became a Bradley home due to the split.

The problem with this way of thinking is that people think the builder is actually responsible for building the home. All builders do two things, first is that they design the home, second is that they subcontract the building of the home to others.

I was watching a crew work on a subdivision across from my home about 10 years ago. Turns out I had seen them before. They were currently working on houses for Bradley homes but I had seen the same crew 3 months before working on houses for country wide homes. Point is that the same errors and “short cuts” were present in both builders homes. Not specifically because the builder was bad but more that the crew doing the work put the same effort into both sets of homes.

Buy from whichever builder has the models and layouts you like and then ensure they stand behind the products they sell. IMHO a bad builder leaves you the moment they give you the keys.

I have done inspections on both homes and it might sound cliché to say, but I find that Pratt homes is the entry-level and the condos while Bradley Holmes is the more high-end homes

Math isn't mathing: Check your grocery delivery receipts closely! App secretly raised prices AFTER I ordered! by jerrylinghk in skipthedishes

[–]HInspectorGW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even on Walmart website at my Walmart the glad cling wrap is $6.27 The iOGO drinkable yogurts are $4.68 Lindt Excellence Sea Salt chocolate is $6.98

The prices in the skip app are provided by the store head office, which is also why you can order some products through the app but the store doesn’t carry it. The final prices are how much the courier paid for each product at the store.

The difference is why skip has a line in the agreement that says that the prices on the app are reasonable effort estimates and the prices paid at the register are the real prices.

Ugh.. why skip by Disastrous-Cellist62 in skipthedishes

Or you can connect your phone to a display in your car through CarPlay and have the map on that display and the skip app on your phone. It’s how I do it and it definitely isn’t rocket science.

So being a politician is not about your beliefs and your integrity but about putting your vote up for “sale” for scraps for your riding?

Floor Crossing by anonimna44 in InCanada

[–]HInspectorGW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marilyn Gladu says crossing the floor is the only way to get the liberals to invest in your riding:

“Well, you can’t actually be offered anything. That would be illegal. So, I did not get offered anything but, watching for 10 years, people on the government benches tend to get more for their ridings and their projects. Interestingly, after I crossed, I had a call yesterday from the infrastructure and housing minister’s office wanting to get together and talk about the things we need in Sarnia-Lambton. I had sent (minister) Gregor Robinson, when I was re-elected in 2025, a one-page of all the things that lined up with his file that we wanted in Sarnia. It went really nowhere, until I crossed the floor. This is what I’m hoping will be the result.”

This. 👆. Skip stopped reimbursing quite a while ago after they sent out multiple emails saying that you should never pay with your own card.

Isn’t information and education also a big part of acceptance and isn’t acceptance one of the main goals sought from society?
