We use an Infrared Camera to find any hidden deficiencies in your home that might not be visible to the naked eye.  Some of the most common items found in houses with the use of a Thermal Imaging camera are; missing insulation,  hot spots on electrical panel and moisture penetration.  Most professionals advertise that Thermal Imaging will help in identifying electrical issues; missing, damaged and/or wet insulation; heat/cold energy loss; moisture intrusion that could lead to mold; hidden roof leaks; damaged and/or malfunctioning radiant heating systems; plumbing leaks; overheated equipment, etc.

Unfortunately Thermal Imaging  technology is subject to many variables such as quality, condition of the house and, last but not least, the ability of the operator to accurately interpret the data.  Roger Frost was the first Professional in Simcoe County to offer Thermal Imaging of homes with an Infrared camera.  Thermal Imaging is important with new homes being so air tight and possible issues with hidden moisture and mould.  

A home inspection is a limited, non-invasive examination of the condition of a home or commercial building, often in connection with the sale of that property. Home inspections are usually conducted by a professional who has the training and certifications to perform such inspections. The client will receive a verbal and written report documenting any deficiencies.

The largest group of professionals are members of NACHI, The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors. Your Professional Commercial Building Professionals are usually also a member of NACBI, National Association of Commercial Building Inspectors. A professional in both Commercial and Residential Buildings is a beneficial requirement for most clients.
