"Thanks you for the time you spent explaining in detail the repair items. I’ve had inspections in the past but this was our first experience with Infrared. Dean picked up an area of water penetration that was not visible and then he confirmed it with a moisture meter. The pictures in the report made it clear what the repairs were and helped when negotiating with the seller."

Home Inspections Houston TX!

Infrared Technology

Buyers Inspection Services uses Infrared Thermal Imaging (IR) on all home inspections performed in Houston, Sugar Land, Katy and the surrounding areas. With the IR we have see defects that are not visible or readily visible to the unaided eye. Water penetration, missing insulation, overheating breakers, plumbing leaks are all problems that allows a qualified operator to make educated interpretations of what may be occurring.
