Optional Services

INFRARED THERMAL IMAGING

This optional service is truly remarkable. Using my infrared (IR) camera, I can detect hidden issues behind finished surfaces in your building. If there are finished walls or ceilings in living areas, basements, or attics that are part of the exterior structure, my IR camera can identify insulation gaps and concealed problems—without the need for destructive testing. This advanced imaging technology captures and measures thermal energy emitted by objects, allowing me to map and interpret temperature variations. These thermal readings can reveal serious issues that are invisible to the naked eye or conventional photography.

Here is what my clients have to say about my home inspection services:

Press F5 (on your keyboard) for additional testimonials

Dave had an impressive website that seemed to be too thorough to be anything but genuine. The thing that seemed to sell me was that he says right on his website that you may pay a little more for his service, but that his quality is higher. So I decided to give him a try even though I had no reference from another person hoping for someone of top quality. I was not disappointed. He was at the home early as promised and had done an inspection of the exterior and was writing up notes so that when I arrived, he walked me through the exterior first. Even with his early arrival, we were still there for about 3 hours looking through every little corner and cubby. He would occasionally stop and fill out his inspection forms which were easy to follow and read; he gives you a full folder of his notes that are well organized.

Dave was open to all questions and concerns so every time I saw something that was potentially concerning to me, he would look, give his opinion and often shared other experiences with similar circumstances. He also had a good sense of humor which helped to lighten what can be a stressful experience (having someone pointing out problem items that you didn't see). I would highly recommend Massachusetts Home Inspections.
