Buying a Home? Get a Mold Inspection and a Home Inspection. Having 360 Degrees Home Inspections conduct your Home/Mold Inspection will benefit you in more ways than one. I use a Flir BCAM SD IR Camera when I conduct Inspections. I offer a "FREE" Basic scan with every Inspection.
Can your Home/Mold Inspector see what I Can?
The above IR image and Digital Photo clearly shows the need for IR Thermal imaging while a Mold Inspection is conducted. The condition above would have gone undetected if an IR Scan was not done.
If your Mold Inspector is not using IR Technology maybe you should reconsider using his/her services!!
I am certified with four different agencies as a Mold Inspector and Flir ( ITC) Certified Level 1 Thermographer. I regularly attend seminars related to Mold and IAQ. (Indoor Air Quality)
Yes, I charge more for my services, but consider the alternative! Mold takes 24-48 hours to grow, if a moisture or water leak is missed during an inspection, mold will grow undetected.
My fee for a Mold inspection is a standard $400.00 + (Lab fees) this includes a BASIC IR scan "Thermal Imaging" for water or moisture intrusion.It also includes an Inspection of the following items;
- Attic ( insulation, ventilation, roof leaks)
- Foundation
- Gutters and Downspout
- Grading
- Plumbing
- inspecting the entire home for Water/Moisture intrusion(Visually and using my IR camera)
The entire process takes Approximately 2-21/2 Hours to complete.It is basically what I like to refer to as a "Mini Home Inspection". If I suspect that mold is present than and only than I will recommend sampling. Sampling is an extra cost.

About Thermography
The ability to detect and measure thermal energy emitted from an object is known as thermography. The tools of the trade are called infrared cameras, and they translate the invisible infrared spectrum into thermal images that we can see and track via thermography.
We call this (ITI) Infrared Thermal Imaging. I also offer this service as a "Stand Alone" inspection
