Infrared Thermal Imaging
Infrared thermal imaging is a powerful tool used to detect issues that are invisible to the naked eye. Hidden moisture and water leaks are the most common defects found. Insulation deficient areas of a home can also be found when using thermal imaging, Lastly thermal imaging can reveal electrical components that are overloaded and are on the way to becoming fire hazards.
Crawlspace Inspections
A crawlspace inspection is a must when buying a home or for annual maintenance. A crawlspace is often out of sight out of mind, but a crawlspace is a very important part of a home. We inspect for hidden structural damage and moisture intrusion in a crawlspace. Moisture in a crawlspace can cause mold and mildew and can also attract termites and other unwanted visitors.
Roof Inspections
Roof inspections are one of the most effective ways to protect your home's value and wallet. A roof is your homes first line of defense against the elements, a small hidden defect can quickly turn into a massive expense for the homeowner. Some defects might include water leaks, damaged shingles and poor flashing. All of these issues can lead to mold and structural rot if not corrected.
Attic Inspections
Attic inspections are a essential part of a home inspection and can reveal many hidden defects. Many pests live in attics such as mice, bats, spiders, and lastly termites all of which can cause damage to the attic and supporting structural members. Condensation and water intrusion are also defects commonly found in attics. Both of which can cause mold and mildew which are both health hazards. There are insulation , electrical, and venting issues in many attics as well. Attic inspections are a must before buying a home.
Electrical Inspections
Whether you're buying a new home or just ensuring your current home is safe, an electrical inspection is one of the most critical safety checks you can preform. An inspection starts at the main panel looking for AFCI breakers, which are used to prevent fires and GFCI breakers, which are used in kitchens, bathrooms and in wet areas of the home. Inspecting for double tapped terminals and mislabeling at the panel are other items that a inspector might find as defects. An inspector will check lighting throughout the home for functionality. Lastly an inspector will check for the presence of carbon monoxide detectors and smoke detectors in the home.
Plumbing Inspections
Plumbing inspections start at the water heater which is the heart of your hot water supply in your home. A home inspector will check for a TPR valve (temperature and pressure relief) this is the most critical safety feature of a water heater. a inspector will also check for water leaks and other visual defects at the water heater. We also check for the location of the main shut of valves and the presence of any visual water leaks throughout the home. A inspector also checks for the presence of proper drainage at sinks and the functionality of the sinks and toilets located in the home.
Indoor Air Quality Testing
We spend 90% of our time indoors, yet indoor air can be significantly more polluted than the air outside. These "invisible invaders"—like VOCs, formaldehyde, and high CO2 levels—can cause headaches, fatigue, and long-term health issues known as Sick Building Syndrome. As an IAC2 Certified professional, I don't just look at the walls; I look at the air you breathe. By testing for particulate matter and humidity imbalances, I help you identify exactly what’s in your air so you can protect your loved ones.
