A Thermal Imaging Inspection is a great way to uncover potential issues that could, if corrected reduce your monthly Cooling and Heating expenses & potentially avoid dangerous electrical safety issues. Thermal Imaging may detect things like missing insulation, over-heating electrical breakers, loose connections, even some pest activities. From the outside it can help detect potential roof leaks & moisture intrusion. See some examples in the photos below.
We live in South Louisiana so Mold is abundant but can be problematic inside your home. So, if you smell that musty, damp scent, have had a water leak or see something suspicious, be sure and get a Mold Inspection. We can offer a Limited Mold Inspection that is concentrated around a certain area of your home or Limited to only taking samples and a more inclusive Mold Screening of your home. We can include both Air Sampling, so you can get an idea of what type of mold is in the air inside your home vs outside and Surface Sampling using Tape or Swaps.
If your roof is too steep to walk, wet from rain or has debris like leaves, pine needles, etc. making it unsafe to walk...no worries. Chip is a Certified Drone Pilot with the FAA. We can take beautiful High Def photos of your roof using our Camera Drone! Chip also has a Thermal Drone for flat Roof inspections! Aerial Drone Videos/Photography can also be a great way to showcase your home or property!
A home is made up of different systems that all work together to provide you with that all important Shelter for you and your family.
We check the major systems that make your House a comfortable home.
We can help with Pre-Purchase Inspections, New Construction or just a general home "Check-Up".
We know we need to get to all accessible areas, even the tight spots to check as much as possible.
We take the time to inspect residential properties as per the La Board of Home Inspectors Standards of Practice, or "SOP".
We typically double check our findings before we deliver the finale report.
This example shows where missing insulation can add heat to your home and can cause your AC system to work harder to keep you cool. These areas of missing insulation increase your cooling costs in the summer.
Using a Thermal Drone allows us to detect Potential Roof Issues before they become larger problems. This image indicates potential moisture intrusion in the valley of this roof. This was confirmed by using a moisture meter from the inside of the attic.
This example shows where a home is loosing heat during the winter as the cool air is visible just below the door handle. Again, this could cause your Heater to work harder and increases your energy costs during the winter months.
Unfortunately this example happens far too often and can result in electrical fires. Over-heating circuits, breakers or connections can be identified with Thermal Imaging and if corrected can prevent disaster.
