With the
constant rise in utility cost, this is one service you cannot afford to be
without! Thermal (Infrared) Inspections can offer the peace of mind that typical
visual inspections cannot. Using temperature-sensitive, state-of-the-art
equipment, thermal inspection is simply the best method of identifying the areas
of your home that need improvement, increasing your home's thermal efficiency,
and therefore saving you money!
Energy Loss Inspections
Your home uses energy every day, all day long. The average home owner cannot
determine where the energy is being lost. An inspector can explain how to use
the energy in your home more efficiently and how to prevent energy loss.
Pre-Listing Inspections
Eventually your buyers are going to conduct an inspection. You may as well
know what they are going to find by getting there first. Having an
inspection performed ahead of time helps in many other ways:
- It allows you to see your home through the eyes of a critical third-party.
- It helps you to price your home realistically.
- It permits you to make repairs ahead of time so that ...
- Defects won't become negotiating stumbling blocks later.
- There is no delay in obtaining the Use and Occupancy permit.
- You have the time to get reasonably priced contractors or make the repairs
yourself, if qualified.
- It may encourage the buyer to waive the inspection contingency.
- It may alert you of items of immediate personal concern, such as radon gas
or active termite infestation.
- It may relieve prospect's concerns and suspicions.
- It reduces your liability by adding professional supporting documentation
to your disclosure statement.
- Alerting you to immediate safety issues before agents and visitors tour
your home.
Copies of the inspection report along with receipts for any repairs should be
made available to potential buyers.
New Construction Inspections
Do you think a new home doesn't have defects? Think again. Newly constructed
homes haven't been test driven often have more problems than older homes. As
part of a builder warranty, the buyer is responsible for inspecting.
