The More You Know, The Better Your Decisions
 That's why I offer a wide range of testing services that go beyond Home Inspections. Here's a list of all the services I offer and a brief explanation of why they're important. All of these services are available on the Inspection Request Page. In addition to home inspections I offer condominium, duplex, apartment buildings, limited commercial and mobile home inspections, as well as these additional services:
Mold Inspections and Sampling
Anywhere there is moisture, even inside a wall, there is potential mold growth. Mold is known to cause problems for those with Asthma and other respiratory ailments. I can identify all areas that have existing mold growth and also point out areas that need to be monitored regularly. Mold is not always readily visible, yet can still cause the associated health problems by infiltrating the air handling system in the home. If you're considering purchasing a home, and notice any stale or musty odors in the house while touring it, it is highly recommended that you have a mold inspection before purchasing. There is much to know about mold. Read more about how it affects your health and well being here.
Radon Testing
Radon is a radioactive gas which has been linked to cancer. It comes from the natural decay of uranium that is found in nearly all soils. It can be easily controlled if it is present and the first step is to determine whether it is indeed a problem. I provide Carbon Canister tests for Radon. This type of test accurately determines whether the levels of Radon present on the property are safe or unsafe. Most of the United States has some level of Radon present in the soil. The levels vary depending on the geology of the region. Even so, homes tend to trap the gases as they rise from the ground. So it is very important to have your home tested.
