Residential Inspections
Our residential inspections evaluate all major home systems including roof, foundation, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. We provide detailed digital reports with photographs and repair recommendations within 48 hours. Our CREIA-certified inspectors use thermal imaging to detect hidden moisture issues and offer the CRL feature for buyer-seller negotiations.
Commercial Inspections
We conduct comprehensive evaluations of commercial properties from small offices to multi-family complexes. Our inspections cover structural integrity, mechanical systems, and potential investment risks. Clients receive detailed reports with photographic documentation and analysis to support informed purchasing decisions and property management strategies.
Moisture Intrusion
Specialized moisture assessments include thermal imaging scans and moisture meter readings. We identify sources of water intrusion, evaluate irrigation systems, and test for mold contamination. Our reports provide actionable solutions to prevent structural damage and health hazards associated with excess moisture.
Digital Reports
All inspections include comprehensive digital reports with annotated photographs and clear explanations of findings. Reports are delivered within 48 hours and feature the Create Request List (CRL) tool for easy repair tracking and negotiation. Our format meets CREIA standards for clarity and technical accuracy.
