Services
Home Inspections
Our comprehensive home inspections evaluate all major systems including electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and structural components. We follow ASHI standards while incorporating our best practices for thorough assessments. Our inspectors use advanced tools to identify potential issues and provide detailed reports with actionable recommendations for buyers and sellers.
Mold Testing
We conduct professional mold and air quality inspections to identify allergens and contaminants in residential properties. Our testing process includes detailed analysis of indoor air quality factors and provides clear reports with remediation recommendations. This service helps homeowners understand potential health risks associated with indoor pollutants.
Water Testing
Our water quality testing identifies contaminants like arsenic, lead, and bacteria in residential water supplies. We test for multiple parameters including pH levels and total dissolved solids. Results come with unbiased treatment recommendations and cost estimates to help homeowners address water quality concerns.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging technology helps detect heat loss and air infiltration through building envelopes. This non-invasive technique identifies energy efficiency issues in walls, windows, and insulation systems. Our inspectors use this data to provide targeted recommendations for improving home energy performance.
Pool Inspections
We perform visual inspections of pool and spa systems including equipment functionality and safety features. Our assessment covers structural integrity, water circulation systems, and safety compliance. This service helps buyers and sellers understand maintenance requirements and potential repair costs for aquatic facilities.
