Home Inspection
Our comprehensive home inspections evaluate a property's structural and system conditions, from attic to basement. We identify potential issues like electrical hazards, plumbing leaks, and HVAC inefficiencies to inform real estate decisions. Clients receive detailed digital reports with photographs and repair recommendations within 24 hours.
Infrared Imaging
Infrared imaging detects hidden moisture damage and insulation gaps by analyzing heat patterns in walls and ceilings. This non-invasive tool helps identify costly issues like water leaks or energy inefficiencies. The service is included free with every home inspection to enhance property understanding.

We conduct short-term radon testing to measure carcinogenic gas levels in homes. Results are delivered within 1-2 business days, helping clients address health risks before transactions. Testing follows EPA guidelines to ensure accurate readings and mitigation recommendations if elevated levels are found.
Pre-Listing Inspection
Pre-listing inspections help homeowners identify and resolve issues before listing their property. This proactive approach streamlines sales by reducing negotiation surprises and increasing buyer confidence. Reports highlight repairs needed to maximize market value and expedite closings.
