Heirloom Home Inspections Services
Full Home Inspection
I conduct a thorough inspection of your home’s major systems, including the roof, structure, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and more. You’ll receive a detailed digital report with clear findings and recommendations to help you make confident, informed decisions.
Radon Gas Test
I provide radon gas testing to help protect your family from this invisible health risk. Using certified equipment, I measure radon levels in your home and deliver accurate results so you can take informed action if needed.
Infrared Inspection
Using thermal imaging technology, I detect hidden issues that aren’t visible to the naked eye—like moisture intrusion, insulation gaps, and electrical hot spots. Infrared scans add an extra layer of detail to your inspection results.
Drone Inspection
I use high-resolution drone technology to inspect hard-to-reach areas like rooftops, chimneys, and large properties. Aerial footage helps identify issues quickly and safely, giving you a clearer view of potential concerns.
Moisture Inspection
I perform moisture intrusion inspections to detect hidden water leaks or seepage that could lead to mold, structural damage, or indoor air quality issues. I'll identify the source and provide clear recommendations for repairs and prevention.
