Some Problems Hide Behind Walls. Thermal Imaging Finds Them.
Advanced infrared technology reveals moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, and electrical hot spots that standard inspections can't see.
What Thermal Imaging Reveals
Infrared thermal inspection uses advanced camera technology to detect temperature differences across surfaces. What appears normal to the naked eye often tells a different story in thermal imaging.
We look for temperature patterns that indicate hidden problems:
- Moisture intrusion shows as cool spots where water is evaporating
- Missing insulation appears as temperature variations in walls and ceilings
- Electrical hot spots reveal overloaded circuits or failing connections
- Air leaks show up as temperature differences around windows and doors
Infrared thermal inspections are provided as an add-on for our comprehensive inspection service. Your home is truly a system that all works together, and thermal imaging helps us see how that system is actually performing.
We Recommend Thermal Imaging With Every Inspection
We recommend adding thermal imaging to every inspection as an optional ancillary service with a separate fee. Our professional-grade FLIR E8 Pro camera reveals issues that simply can’t be detected any other way, and the insights are valuable regardless of your home’s age or condition.
Thermal imaging is particularly powerful for detecting:
- Hidden moisture intrusion — musty odors, water stains, or humidity issues where you can’t locate the source. Thermal imaging pinpoints exactly where moisture is entering.
- Insulation and energy problems — if energy costs are higher than expected, thermal imaging shows exactly where your conditioned air is escaping.
- Pre-purchase peace of mind — knowing what’s behind the walls before you close can save thousands in unexpected repairs.
- Pre-renovation planning — understanding what’s in the walls before you open them up.
Optional Add-On Service
Thermal imaging works best as an add-on to a full home inspection, and we recommend it for every inspection. We can identify areas for closer thermal examination during the standard inspection process, giving you the most comprehensive picture of your home’s condition. This service carries a separate fee.
We include thermal images in your digital report with clear explanations of what we found and what it means for your home.
