NOTE: Whilst during the course of House Inspections all due care is taken in respect of Thermal Imaging and Non-invasive Moisture scans, it is not practically possible to be certain that moisture-related problems do not exist, even though no thermal abnormality or elevated moisture readings were recorded during the inspection.
Therefore, incorporating a Weathertightness Snapshot Inspection into your Thermal Imaging report is Extremely Important. It will point to architectural details and application/installation faults which have been identified as problematic with conventional/monolithic cladding allowing moisture ingress. Including them in the report could dramatically reduce your risk of buying a house with inherited moisture problems.
We only perform infrared inspections from the inside of the home unless requested otherwise.
LIMITATIONS: A thermal imaging camera cannot see through walls, nor does it detect moisture. The infrared camera detects infrared radiation, therefore the weather conditions, furniture presence or house temperature tampering could affect findings.

I love to take booking calls personally, but doing it while crawling under houses has proven to be a bit challenging :-). So here's a better system...unless it's very urgent, please simply use the contact form below.
Of course, I'll call you back as soon as possible to discuss your requirements. Usually in the next 30-40 minutes.
When booking, please provide contact details for yourself and your agent, the property address, inspection urgency and any other relevant information.
