Home Inspections
Our comprehensive home inspections evaluate all major systems, including foundations, roofing, electrical, and HVAC. We use thermal imaging to detect hidden issues like moisture intrusion and electrical hazards. Clients receive detailed same-day reports with actionable recommendations, ensuring informed decisions for buyers, sellers, and homeowners.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal imaging identifies temperature discrepancies to uncover hidden problems such as air leaks, moisture behind walls, and overheating electrical components. This non-invasive technology is included at no extra cost, providing early detection of energy inefficiencies and safety risks during inspections.
New Construction Inspections
We inspect new homes at critical stages, including pre-drywall and final walkthroughs, to identify construction defects. Our evaluations cover structural integrity, HVAC performance, and plumbing systems, ensuring issues are resolved before warranty expiration and protecting long-term investment value.

Commercial inspections assess multi-family complexes, warehouses, and office buildings for structural, mechanical, and safety compliance. We provide executive-level reports with prioritized recommendations to mitigate risks, forecast maintenance costs, and ensure operational efficiency for investors and stakeholders.
