TOOLS WE USE FOR INSPECTION SERVICES

Infrared Camera used by NestHawk Home Inspections Brantford ON

Thermal Imaging Camera for Infrared Scanning

We use a Thermal Imaging Camera as needed with our inspection services. The camera allows us to see heat signatures, which we wouldn’t be able to see with the naked eye, and picks up areas of moisture or heat loss. This helps us find numerous issues, like an overheating electrical panel and hidden moisture intrusion.

HIP Inspection Software

The most important part of any home inspection program is the report. Reports with Home Inspector Pro are designed to be easy to read and to the point. Home buyers and sellers, as well as their real estate agents, have told us that our reports are the easiest they have ever read.

Moisture Meter used by NestHawk Home Inspections Brantford ON

Moisture Meter for Moisture Detection

Using a Moisture Meter, we can detect the levels of moisture in various parts of your home. High levels of moisture can indicate a moisture intrusion issue, which can cause damage to structural materials. It is important to address this issue promptly to prevent further damage.

Drone Inspections

 Hiring a home inspector who uses a drone gives you a birds-eye view of key areas that are ordinarily inaccessible. With a drone, your home inspector can see and photograph the roof in its entirety, noting any damage that may have otherwise gone unnoticed.
