Floorplan / Electrical Mapping
Floorplans are great for investors or homeowners that want to better understand the layout of the home, or plan for where the furniture will go. Electrical Mapping is an add-on to the floorplan that will identify where all the lights, outlets and electrical devices are located and what breakers they are connected to. This helps understand if certain circuits are overloaded or provide guidance of where to turn off power to a certain circuit.
Radon Testing
Radon testing can identify if the levels of radon in your home are dangerous. Radon is a radioactive gas that is odorless, tasteless, and invisible. It is naturally formed from the breakdown of heavy metals in the earth and can enter a home through cracks in floors, walls, drain systems, and other sources. The EPA has estimated that over 21,000 lung cancer deaths in the U.S. each year are attributed to radon. It is the number one cause of lung cancer deaths among non-smokers.
4-point Inspections
A 4-point inspection assesses electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roof systems, required by insurance companies for older or high-claim homes. A licensed inspector evaluates these systems' condition and age, providing insurers with an overview of the house, reducing risk and ensuring adequate coverage. Homeowners learn about the systems' condition for informed decision-making.
Water Testing
Water quality testing is a specialized laboratory test that checks a home’s water supply for contaminants and pollutants, such as Nitrate, lead, and coliform bacteria. Testing can also reveal chemical imbalances of the pH, and other attributes, such as hardness. Testing ensures that the home’s water is potable and safe for everyday use.
