Services
Standard Home Inspection
Our standard inspection evaluates structural components, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and appliances. We include thermal imaging and drone surveys to identify hidden moisture issues and roof problems. Clients receive a detailed report with photos and repair recommendations for pre-purchase or pre-sale decision-making.
Mold Inspection
We conduct air quality testing and surface sampling to detect mold presence. Our inspectors examine moisture-prone areas and provide remediation guidance. This service is recommended for properties with water damage history or visible mold growth, helping protect occupant health and property value.
New Construction Inspection
Our team inspects new construction homes during final build stages. We verify code compliance, identify construction defects, and check system functionality using infrared technology. Early issue detection allows timely builder corrections before warranty expiration.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Using thermal cameras, we detect energy leaks and moisture intrusion in walls, ceilings, and foundations. This non-invasive technology reveals hidden issues invisible to the naked eye, supporting energy efficiency improvements and preventing water damage.
Drone Inspection
Our FAA-licensed pilots use drones to inspect high or steep roofs safely. HD aerial imaging captures roof surface conditions and hard-to-reach areas, identifying damage requiring repair while eliminating risks associated with manual inspections.
