Our comprehensive pre-purchase inspections evaluate all major home systems including roof, foundation, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC. We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to detect hidden issues, providing detailed reports with repair recommendations to help buyers make informed decisions. This service helps identify potential problems that could affect property value and safety.
Termite Inspection
Specialized termite inspections examine all accessible areas for infestation signs including mud tubes and damaged wood. Our certified inspectors use advanced detection tools to identify active termite activity and potential risk areas. We provide detailed reports outlining findings with treatment recommendations to protect property investments from structural damage.
Moisture Inspection
Our moisture inspections identify hidden water damage through specialized testing methods including stucco moisture analysis. We utilize hygrometers and thermal cameras to detect elevated moisture levels that could lead to mold growth or structural issues. This service includes comprehensive reporting with remediation guidance for maintaining property integrity.

Expert evaluations of stucco and EIFS exteriors detect moisture intrusion and system deficiencies. We perform exterior probe testing and visual assessments to identify hidden decay or mold growth behind cladding.
