Services
Standard Home Inspection
Our comprehensive inspection evaluates a home's structure, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and safety systems. Using advanced tools, we identify issues from foundation to roof, ensuring buyers and sellers understand a property's condition. Our reports include actionable recommendations for maintenance or repairs.
Thermal Imaging Inspection
Infrared cameras detect hidden moisture, energy loss, and electrical hotspots invisible to the naked eye. This non-invasive method identifies risks like insulation gaps, water intrusion, and fire hazards, providing critical data for informed property decisions.
Radon Testing
We conduct EPA-compliant radon testing using short-term charcoal canisters. Elevated radon levels, a leading cause of lung cancer, are identified through precise measurements, ensuring homes meet safety standards and mitigating long-term health risks.
Pool & Spa Inspection
Our checklist evaluates pool/spa structure, filtration, safety features, and electrical systems. We identify maintenance needs and safety hazards, ensuring compliance with safety standards and extending the lifespan of recreational water systems.
New Home Inspection
Post-construction inspections verify workmanship quality and contract compliance. We create punch lists for contractors, addressing defects in finishes, systems, or structural elements before final payments, ensuring homes meet client expectations and building codes.
