Home Inspections
Professional Property Inspection provides comprehensive home inspections following ASHI standards. Our visual examination covers structural systems, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and interior/exterior components. Using infrared technology, we detect hidden moisture issues and energy inefficiencies. Clients receive detailed reports with life expectancy assessments and maintenance recommendations for informed decision-making.
Mold Inspection
Our certified mold inspections identify moisture sources and fungal growth using advanced testing methods. We evaluate indoor air quality, perform moisture mapping, and provide lab analysis of samples. Reports include remediation strategies and prevention tips to maintain healthy living environments. Our inspectors follow EPA guidelines for accurate mold assessment in residential and commercial properties.
Radon Testing
We conduct 48-hour radon testing using continuous monitoring equipment to measure gas levels in homes. Our EPA-compliant process identifies elevated radon concentrations that pose health risks. Reports include mitigation recommendations when levels exceed 4 pCi/L. Testing can be integrated with standard home inspections for comprehensive property evaluation.
Infrared Thermography
Infrared inspections detect hidden moisture and energy loss through thermal imaging. Our FLIR-certified inspectors identify insulation gaps, water intrusion, and electrical hotspots invisible to the naked eye. This non-invasive technology enhances standard inspections by revealing structural and mechanical issues before they become major problems.
Stucco Inspection
Specialized stucco system evaluations combine visual inspection with moisture testing to identify water damage. We assess window installation, flashing details, and cladding integrity to determine construction defects. Infrared analysis reveals hidden moisture patterns while electronic meters confirm wet areas requiring remediation in stucco-clad properties.
