Services
Buyer Inspection
Our buyer inspections provide comprehensive evaluations of residential properties before purchase. Certified inspectors examine structural components, mechanical systems, and potential safety hazards. We deliver detailed reports with photographic documentation and maintenance recommendations within 24 hours to support informed real estate decisions.
Pre-Listing Inspection
Pre-listing inspections help homeowners identify potential issues before marketing their property. Our thorough assessments cover all major systems and components, enabling sellers to address concerns proactively. This service includes repair documentation and market positioning guidance to facilitate smoother transactions and more favorable negotiations.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Thermal imaging inspections utilize infrared technology to detect hidden moisture, electrical hotspots, and insulation deficiencies. This non-invasive diagnostic tool identifies temperature variations that indicate potential problems behind walls or under surfaces. The service includes detailed thermal imagery analysis and targeted moisture testing for comprehensive property assessment.
New Construction Inspection
New construction inspections ensure quality control for recently built homes. Our inspectors evaluate workmanship, code compliance, and system functionality at various stages including pre-drywall, final walkthrough, and 11-month warranty assessments. We identify construction defects that could lead to costly repairs after warranty expiration.
Warranty Inspection
Warranty inspections identify construction defects before builder warranties expire. Conducted 2-6 weeks prior to warranty expiration, these assessments document issues requiring repair while maintaining coverage. Our reports include photographic evidence and technical documentation to support warranty claims with builders.
