During a home inspection, your inspector will thoroughly review the safety and functionality of your electrical system.

Thermal imaging helps the inspector to uncover problems that aren’t always visible to the human eye. The thermal camera employs a process that translates the heat signature in your home on a gradient scale, ranging from bright red to dark blue. Higher temperatures will translate as red, while darker colors are triggered by lower temperatures in wet areas.
In analyzing these images, the inspector can detect sources of energy loss, pinpoint dangerous electrical hot spots, flue leaks in the chimney that can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning, locate wood-destroying insects and detect moisture intrusion (which can be a catalyst for mold).
In short, thermal imaging can be an important preventative measure in protecting your home from potential hazards.
The inspector will evaluate the attic and roof structure of the home.

Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring silicates. They have properties that make them useful for insulation or binding materials in buildings. When asbestos becomes damaged or disturbed, the asbestos fibers become airborne and can be inhaled. When inhaled, they enter the respiratory tracts and damage the lungs by leaving scars in the lung tissues.
We provide asbestos testing to determine whether a material in your home contains asbestos. Find more information here.
