Services
Residential Inspections
Our residential inspections evaluate all major property systems including foundations, roofing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. We identify safety hazards, maintenance needs, and code compliance issues. Clients receive detailed reports with photographic documentation to support informed decision-making about their home purchases.
Infrared Thermography
Using advanced infrared technology, we detect hidden moisture issues, electrical hotspots, and insulation deficiencies. This non-invasive method reveals temperature variations in walls and ceilings that indicate potential problems. The imaging provides visual evidence to support repair recommendations and maintenance planning.
Well & Septic Systems
Certified evaluations of private water wells and septic systems ensure proper functionality and safety. We check for contamination risks, structural integrity, and regulatory compliance. Our reports include maintenance recommendations to prevent future system failures and protect household health.
Termite Inspections
Specialized inspections identify wood-destroying insects and structural damage. We examine accessible areas for active infestations, previous damage, and conducive conditions. Our reports meet lending requirements and help property owners address pest-related risks promptly.
Commercial Inspections
Comprehensive assessments of commercial buildings cover structural integrity, mechanical systems, and safety compliance. We identify maintenance needs, potential liabilities, and code violations that affect business operations. Detailed reports help investors make sound commercial real estate decisions.
