Services
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging detects hidden issues like missing insulation, electrical faults, and plumbing leaks. Our inspectors use infrared cameras to identify temperature anomalies that indicate potential hazards or inefficiencies in walls, ceilings, and systems. This non-invasive technology ensures comprehensive evaluations without damaging property.
HVAC Inspection
We evaluate heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems for proper function and safety. Our inspectors check temperature differentials, filter conditions, compressor alignment, and electrical connections. Reports include equipment age assessments and recommendations to optimize efficiency and prevent costly breakdowns in Texas' extreme climate.
Structural Inspection
Our structural evaluations examine foundations, roofs, walls, and load-bearing components. We identify cracks, settling issues, and material defects that could compromise safety. Inspectors assess pier-and-beam, slab, and basement foundations, providing detailed guidance on maintenance and repair priorities.
Electrical Inspection
We inspect electrical panels, circuits, and outlets for code compliance and fire hazards. Our team identifies outdated aluminum wiring, recalled breaker brands, and improper grounding. Reports highlight safety risks and prioritize repairs to ensure systems meet modern standards for residential properties.
Pool and Spa Inspection
Our pool inspections verify structural integrity, equipment function, and safety compliance. We test filtration systems, check for leaks, and evaluate fencing regulations. Inspectors assess tile damage, drain covers, and chemical balance systems to ensure safe operation and identify costly repair needs.
