Services
Buyers Inspection
Our comprehensive buyers inspection evaluates all visible and accessible home systems. Using infrared thermography at no extra cost, we identify potential moisture issues and energy loss. The inspection includes structural components, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and built-in appliances. Clients receive detailed digital reports with photographic documentation to support informed purchasing decisions.
Mold Testing
This specialized inspection detects mold presence through air and surface sampling. We identify moisture intrusion sources contributing to mold growth, providing laboratory analysis of samples. Our reports include remediation recommendations and safety guidelines to address health concerns associated with mold exposure in residential properties.
Radon Testing
Using specialized monitoring equipment, we conduct long-term radon gas testing to meet EPA standards. Our inspection identifies entry points through foundation cracks and soil pockets. We provide mitigation guidance following test results exceeding acceptable safety levels to ensure occupant health and safety during property transactions.
Thermal Imaging
This diagnostic tool identifies temperature anomalies revealing hidden moisture, insulation gaps, and electrical hotspots. The imaging technology captures thermal patterns across building components to detect energy loss, water intrusion, and structural defects not visible through standard visual inspections.
Drone Roof Inspection
Using high-resolution drone cameras with thermal imaging, we safely evaluate roof conditions without physical access. The technology detects hidden damage, moisture intrusion, and insulation issues while providing detailed aerial imagery documentation for comprehensive roof condition analysis.
