NEW CONSTRUCTION AND
BUILDER'S WARRANTY INSPECTIONS
Many items can be over looked and that is where an inspection will give you peace of mind. If you have a 12 month builder's warranty, a full and complete inspection at 11 months would be beneficial to have your builder fix or repair any defects. We find leaks under sinks, improper electrical or loose connections and fixtures, damaged roof shingles, disconnected flues, and one time even an unfinished chimney.
Infrared Thermography Inspections
Infrared thermography (IRT) is the science used to capture and process thermal information using non-contact measurement tools. This is done by analyzing infrared (IR) radiation emitted from an object whose temperature is above absolute zero. Because this wavelength exists outside of the visible spectrum of light, infrared measuring devices are required to capture and process this information.
