Services
Home Inspection
Our comprehensive home inspections cover all major systems including roof, foundation, electrical, and plumbing. Using thermal imaging and drone technology, we identify hidden issues and provide same-day reports with hundreds of detailed photographs. Certified inspectors evaluate structural integrity and system functionality for informed real estate decisions.
Commercial Inspection
Specialized commercial property inspections assess structural components, mechanical systems, and safety compliance. Our certified inspectors follow commercial standards of practice while identifying maintenance needs and potential liabilities. Reports include detailed documentation of roof conditions, HVAC systems, and electrical infrastructure.
Thermal Imaging
Included at no extra cost, thermal imaging detects moisture intrusion and electrical hotspots invisible to the naked eye. This technology helps identify energy inefficiencies and potential safety hazards during standard home inspections. Our inspectors interpret thermal patterns to reveal hidden building defects.
Drone Inspection
For roofs that cannot be safely walked, we use FAA-certified drone operators to capture high-resolution images. This non-invasive method provides complete roof coverage without physical contact, identifying damaged shingles, flashing issues, and drainage problems while maintaining safety standards.
Sewer Scope
Using specialized camera equipment, we inspect sewer lines for cracks, root intrusion, and blockages. This ancillary service identifies underground pipe issues that could lead to expensive repairs. Our inspectors document pipe condition and provide recommendations for maintenance or repairs.
