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.

Hi Dave,

I just wanted to write and thank you very much for doing our inspection today. You really took an awful lot of extra time to explain things to us. It was a huge help and by far my favorite part of this whole home-buying process. In addition to drawing our attention to the major projects that need to be undertaken right away or in the near future, I was glad that you were also so thorough as to point out smaller things and provide suggestions for fixes that we'd be able to do ourselves. Thanks again for all your effort. I'm finding your "Know Your Home" book a great source of information along with your report. I'll no doubt have some questions for you at some point and really appreciate your willingness to answer them. Have a great rest of your weekend!

Take care,

Sean
