Services
Home Inspections
Our home inspections examine structural systems, electrical components, plumbing, and HVAC units. We identify maintenance needs and potential defects in residential properties. Clients receive digital reports with photos and repair recommendations.
Mold Testing
We conduct mold inspections using moisture meters and lab analysis to identify contamination sources. Our reports include remediation guidance for residential and commercial properties. Testing follows industry-standard protocols for accurate results.
Radon Testing
Our 48-hour radon tests use continuous monitoring equipment to measure gas levels. We provide EPA-compliant reports showing concentration levels and mitigation recommendations. Testing occurs in the lowest livable area of the property.
Infrared Thermography
Infrared cameras detect hidden moisture and energy loss in building envelopes. We identify insulation gaps, water intrusion points, and electrical hotspots. This non-invasive method reveals issues invisible during standard visual inspections.
Commercial Inspections
We evaluate office buildings, industrial facilities, and multi-family units across Ohio. Our assessments cover structural integrity, mechanical systems, and code compliance. Reports include life expectancy estimates for major components.
