Home Inspections
Our comprehensive home inspections follow Tennessee Standards of Practice to assess property condition. We examine structural components, electrical systems, plumbing, and HVAC units without additional charges. Our detailed digital reports include photographic documentation and moisture testing to identify potential issues while maintaining strict adherence to professional boundaries regarding warranty claims.
Radon Testing
We offer premium radon testing using NRPP-approved CRM devices for accurate air quality assessment. This service follows strict scientific protocols to measure radon levels in residential properties. Our testing process includes proper device placement, monitoring duration, and certified reporting to help homeowners understand potential health risks associated with radon exposure.
Thermal Imaging
Free thermal imaging is included with every inspection to detect temperature anomalies in building envelopes. This technology helps identify insulation gaps, moisture intrusion, and electrical hotspots that may indicate hidden problems. Our inspectors interpret thermal patterns to provide actionable recommendations for maintaining energy efficiency and structural integrity.
Termite Inspections
We provide specialized termite inspections to identify evidence of infestation or damage. Our assessment follows industry standards for detecting visible signs of wood-destroying organisms. While we don't perform pest control services, our reports document current conditions and recommend appropriate follow-up actions when potential issues are discovered.
Short-Term Rental Inspections
Our STRP permit inspections ensure short-term rental properties meet local regulatory requirements. We assess safety standards, structural integrity, and compliance with zoning regulations. This service helps property owners prepare for STRP permitting while identifying maintenance needs to ensure guest safety and regulatory compliance.
