Home Inspections (Staten Island)

Home inspections (Staten Island and surrounding areas) should be performed utilizing the most current technology. Among the most recent innovations is the thermal infrared scanning. This technology provides a closer look at properties to see potential defects that would otherwise go unnoticed, problems that are invisible to the naked eye.

Torre Real Estate is proud to conduct a home inspection NY residents can trust, using the infrared thermal technology. With infrared thermal imaging, Torre is able to detect subtle changes in temperature within the structure, warranting further probing by indicating such things as water damage and leaks, electrical hot spots, deficient or missing insulation, and air leaks. By adding this technology to the total home inspection, Staten Island residents can feel more confident in their home purchase.

Home Inspection (Staten Island)

The home inspection, Staten Island inspectors agree, should be as complete and thorough as possible, and many believe that using the infrared thermal imaging technology offers this additional layer of investigation. Browse our site and check out my blog for pictures of actual photographs taken, comparing a regular view with the thermal infrared view. The pictures say a thousand words, and exemplify the benefit of using this technology.

Problems that have remained previously unseen are now revealed in home inspections. Staten Island buyers can view pictures that show these problems, therefore giving them the option to have these problems resolved or move on to another property. This information can save you thousands of dollars and many headaches over the time you own the home.

For example, in some properties, a thermal infrared image can reveal a water leak that may be hidden by flooring or may be occurring behind a wall. Unseen water damage can lead to even bigger problems down the road, such as mold and mildew, decay, and wood destroying insect infestations. It is vital that potential buyers are aware of any conditions such as this before their purchase.
