FULL HOME INSPECTION:
A home is probably the biggest purchase you’ll ever make, so it’s important to understand the condition of your investment. I’ll provide a non-invasive evaluation of the home’s accessible structure, systems and components. While a home inspection can’t reveal every concern that exists, it will significantly reduce your anxiety by arming you with the knowledge you need to make an informed home-buying decision.
INFRARED INSPECTION:
I use a state-of-the-art infrared camera to find problems that aren’t always apparent to the naked eye. An IR camera translates the heat signatures of objects into colors on a gradient scale, with higher temperatures appearing as lighter colors, and lower temperatures and wet areas appearing as darker colors. By evaluating these images, I can detect sources of energy loss, locate areas of moisture intrusion, pinpoint dangerous hot spots in the electrical system, and uncover other problems, such as wood-destroying pest and rodent infestations, as well as flue leaks in the chimney, which can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.
ANNUAL HOME MAINTENANCE INSPECTION:
Especially if you’re a new homeowner, an Annual Home Maintenance Inspection can help you understand and plan for the demands of maintaining your home properly. Some tasks are seasonal, and some items require more frequent attention. Let me help you start on the path of responsible homeownership by identifying any issues, and educating you about what should be done each year to keep your home in top condition. Even if you’re a veteran homeowner, my inspection can verify whether your home’s maintenance is sufficient, or whether any problems have developed during the past year.
MOVE-IN INSPECTION:
Our Move-In Inspection Service gives you peace of mind when moving into a new rental property. We thoroughly assess the property's condition, provide detailed reports with photos, and ensure compliance with safety standards. It's a smart way for landlords and tenants to start their rental journey on the right foot.
POOL & SPA INSPECTION:
Your pool requires proper maintenance and regular inspection so that you can enjoy it for years to come. Your pool maintenance professional is responsible only for the pool’s chemistry and cleanliness. Let me inspect it for all the other items that will ensure its proper condition and safety. I follow a comprehensive checklist and will inspect for the following: water level; leaks; valves; main drains, grates and inlets; blockages, debris, staining and biological growth; heater and thermostat; adequate fencing and gate security; deck safety; electrical safety, switches, alarms, and lighting; and more.
ROOF INSPECTION:
Our Roof Inspection Service provides a comprehensive examination of your roof, covering shingles, structure, leaks, materials, ventilation, and insulation. Our certified inspectors deliver a detailed report with photos, recommendations, and cost estimates, ensuring your peace of mind, enhancing property value, boosting energy efficiency, ensuring safety, and simplifying insurance claims. Contact us today to protect your roof and property.
4-POINT INSPECTION:
Our 4-Point Inspection Service is a specialized assessment designed to evaluate four key components of a residential property: the roof, electrical system, plumbing system, and HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system. We thoroughly examine each component, identifying any potential issues or hazards and ensuring compliance with current safety standards. With our 4-Point Inspection, you can make informed decisions about insurance coverage, property maintenance, and necessary upgrades, ultimately safeguarding your investment and ensuring the well-being of your home.
WIND MITIGATION INSPECTION:
Our Wind Mitigation Inspection Service assesses your property's ability to withstand high winds and storms. We evaluate key features, including the roof, doors, windows, and structural components, to identify hurricane-resistant and impact-resistant measures. This inspection not only qualifies you for potential insurance discounts but also provides recommendations for strengthening your property against wind-related damage, enhancing safety, and reducing storm-related risks.
PLUMBING INSPECTION:
Our Plumbing Inspection Service ensures the reliability and safety of your plumbing system. Our expert inspectors thoroughly examine pipes, fixtures, and connections to identify leaks, corrosion, or potential issues. We provide you with a detailed report and recommendations, allowing you to address problems early, prevent water damage, and maintain the efficient operation of your plumbing, ultimately saving you time and money.
DECK INSPECTION:
Our Deck Inspection Service ensures the safety and longevity of your outdoor space. Our experienced inspectors thoroughly assess the deck's structural integrity, hardware, and overall condition, identifying potential hazards or wear and tear. We provide you with a detailed report outlining any issues and recommendations for necessary repairs or maintenance, giving you peace of mind while enjoying your deck.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM INSPECTION:
Our Electrical System Inspection Service ensures the safety and functionality of your property's electrical components. Our certified inspectors assess wiring, outlets, panels, and connections to identify potential hazards, code violations, or inefficiencies. With this inspection, you can address electrical issues proactively, reduce the risk of electrical fires, and ensure your home or business remains powered reliably and safely.
