Modern Digital Reporting

I use state of the art software to generate a detailed report that is backed up with all my training, written with the client in mind, and not emotionally driven. My reports include high resolution images and details descriptions of my findings with a focus on health and safety, and they are completely digital so they can easily be accessed and shared.

Aerial Drone Roof Inspections

Aerial Drone technology gives our inspector high-definition photography images. We adheres to FAA Flight regulations for Drone roof inspections. FAA regulations restrict the proximity to airports and designated “no fly zones”. When a home is within those FAA restricted areas our inspectors use other methods to inspect roof surfaces.

We complete electrical inspections keeping in mind age related concerns, incorrect wiring, unnoticeable electrical current problems, unsafe wiring, corrosion, and the need for upgrading the electrical panel to accommodate today’s needs.

Foundation Inspections

We complete this type of inspection looking for evidence of pressures acting on the home's foundation causing cracks which usually appear at the weakest points in the construction. These must be monitored for movement, spreading, shifting, or widening. In a nutshell, a foundation inspection determines if your home's foundation needs repair and then provides the plan of action and cost for repairing the foundation.

Mold Inspections

Mold inspection simply identifies the presence of mold and generally defines the size of the problem, usually in square footage. Mold testing attempts to identify what specific type of mold is in your home and how many mold spores are in the air.

Multi Family Inspections

We complete inspections on Small and Large Apartment Buildings, Condo Buildings, Duplex, Triplex, as well as Fourplex. There are often requirements of multi-family rental dwellings of four (4) or more units to be inspected for code compliance in order to preserve property values, promote community safety and well being, and encourage investment in upkeep and maintenance.

Post-Closing - For those pushed to close by the builder without the builder having adequate time to remediate concerns before closing

Thermal Infrared Imaging Inspections

Infrared (thermal imaging) is an advanced, non-invasive technology that allows the inspector to show homeowners things about their homes that can't be revealed using conventional inspection methods. Ancillary inspection reports are just as important as the reports you generate for standard home inspections.
