Home Inspection Services

Certified professional home inspections with clear, photo-rich reports. Thermal imaging and drone roof views are used when conditions allow to improve coverage and document concerns.

Core Services

Home Inspection
(Buyer/Seller/Pre-Listing)

A thorough, visual inspection of the home’s accessible components to help you understand the property’s condition and prioritize next steps. You’ll receive a detailed report with photos, clear explanations, and recommended actions.

Thermal Imaging
(Included with every home inspection)

Thermal imaging can help identify temperature anomalies that may indicate insulation gaps, air leakage, overheated electrical components, or potential moisture-related concerns. Findings are documented and may require confirmation.

Drone (Roof and Exterior)

When roof surfaces are high, steep, or unsafe to walk, a drone may be used to improve visibility of roof coverings, flashings, penetrations, and hard-to-reach exterior areas. Weather/site conditions may limit use.

Ancillary/Add-On Services

WDO Inspection
(Wood-Destroying Organisms)

Inspection for visible evidence of wood-destroying insects and conditions conducive to infestation where accessible (commonly includes termites, carpenter ants, and wood-boring beetles depending on region/conditions).

Notes: Scope is limited to visible/accessible areas; concealed activity may not be detectable.

Septic Dye Test

A dye test can help identify signs of leakage or surfacing effluent under certain conditions by introducing dye into the system and observing the property for indications of discharge.

Notes: Results can be affected by weather, soil conditions, system configuration, and recent water usage; not a full septic evaluation or pumping.

Water Quality Testing

Collection of water samples for laboratory analysis to help assess water quality. Testing options can be selected based on the property and your concerns.

Notes: Results reflect conditions at the time of sampling; follow lab handling/chain-of-custody requirements.

Well Systems Testing (Functional)

A functional evaluation of the well system components that are readily accessible, which may include observing operation, visible components, and basic performance checks when feasible.

Notes: Not a full yield recovery test or engineering evaluation; limitations may apply based on access and system type.
