Services
Home Inspections
Our comprehensive home inspections assess structural integrity, electrical systems, plumbing, HVAC, and potential safety hazards. Certified Master Inspectors identify issues affecting value or livability, providing detailed reports with maintenance recommendations. Ideal for buyers, sellers, or homeowners seeking peace of mind through expert diagnostics.
Radon Testing
Certified radon testing measures indoor radon gas levels using continuous monitoring for accurate results. This EPA-recommended service detects carcinogenic risks in basements and living spaces, ensuring compliance with safety standards. Reports include mitigation guidance if elevated levels are found during the inspection process.
Sewer Scope Inspections
Using high-resolution cameras, we inspect sewer lines for cracks, blockages, or root intrusion. This service identifies repair needs before they cause costly damage, offering video documentation of pipe conditions. Essential for pre-purchase evaluations or diagnosing recurring drainage issues in residential properties.
Well Pump Testing
We evaluate well pump functionality, water pressure, and flow rates to ensure reliable household water supply. Testing includes electrical components, pressure tanks, and system longevity assessments. Critical for properties relying on private wells to maintain safe, efficient water delivery systems.
Termite Inspections
Certified termite inspections detect active infestations, mud tubes, or wood damage caused by pests. We examine structural components and provide treatment recommendations if evidence is found. Required by many lenders for mortgage approvals, ensuring properties meet pest-free condition standards.
