Why 52/100, and not 100?
The points below are not taken away from Summit Home Inspections: they are simply not yet awarded, for lack of a public source to verify them. Payotte estimates nothing and invents nothing.
- Start year unknown. No Canadian register publishes a licence issue date. We leave these points aside rather than estimate seniority.
- No verifiable distinction found (industry award, press citation, teaching role). Absence of evidence, not evidence of absence.
- Local presence in Downtown Hamilton not confirmed. No public source proves how many files were closed in this specific sector — only the professional holds that figure.
- Licence not confirmed in the register. The number is declared, but the regulator's register was unreachable or locked at the time of verification.
Is this profile about you?
Your score is public, criterion by criterion. Up to 41 points are out of reach — not because you don't deserve them, but because no public source lets us verify them. From you, we need:
- up to 30 pts — the year you began practising — no Canadian register publishes it
- up to 5 pts — a verifiable distinction: an industry award, a press citation, a teaching role
- up to 3 pts — your presence in Downtown Hamilton: files closed there over the past twelve months, and the address of the office that serves it
- up to 3 pts — your licence number, so we can confirm it in the register
We verify, we date it, we publish. It is free, and it buys no ranking — only an accurate profile.
