Just because a house hasn’t been lived in yet, doesn’t mean that it is in perfect shape and structurally sound. There are a lot of parties in and out of a new home when it is being built and defects or mistakes often get overlooked. Integrity new construction inspections are completed in multiple phases, ensuring that you are aware of problems before construction is completed.
Commercial inspections are important for business owners because they need to know that the building will fit their needs, is safe for staff and customers and that the building can accommodate their future growth. It is also vitally important to a company’s bottom line to know the condition of the building structure and it’s major components, before making the investment, so that they are able to modify, improve, or enhance the building while meeting sensible budgeting goals.
Thermal scans are a non-disruptive method of scanning a surface to find potential problems like heat escaping through cracks & crevices, frigid incoming air or moisture that may be leaking inside. The temperatures captured by the camera are measured and calculated. The results give the homeowners or buyers a clear picture of the home and how that relates to its condition or overall efficiency. Thermal imagery can reveal rafters not up to code, water and moisture penetration, insufficient insulation, improper installation of plumbing, breakers and outlets and can even detect pests.
Radon is a harmful carcinogen, and a leading contributor to lung cancer. Since it is odorless and tasteless, the only way to know if it’s present in your home is with professional testing. Radon can be found in brand new homes as well as older residences in Northeast Ohio. Integrity Radon Testing uses the most comprehensive technology to ensure your peace of mind as well as provide recommendations for radon mitigation.
Mold inspections are a routine part of our home inspection process and we make sure to look for places where mold could potentially grow. However, the naked eye isn’t always enough, so we have specialized equipment and send in any samples we find to accredited laboratories. While not all molds are toxic, they can cause issues with breathing and make allergies worse. If you suspect that you have mold in your residence or building, call Integrity for a mold assessment and air quality analysis.
Any home is subject to wood destroying insects (WDI) although modern building practices utilize barriers that help prevent certain types of WDI. Many lenders, and especially the Veterans Administration (VA Loans) require a home to have a WDI inspection and to have the results reported on a specific form. WDI can be easily prevented and treated, but if left unchecked they can cause serious structural damage to the home.
Integrity Home Evaluation Services provides testing for Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s), Formaldehyde and Mold. The causes of indoor air pollution varies from region to region, house to house and even room to room. Contaminated air trickles in from the outside, but it also comes up from various indoor air sources such as construction materials, consumer products, mold, insects and pets. If you or someone in your home suffers from asthma, headaches, fatigue, heart disease or cancer, it may be time to test your indoor air quality.
