UNDERGROUND TANK SWEEP
SEWER SCOPING INSPECTION
The risk of finding an oil tank means there should always be a tank sweep when buying a house built before 1985, or if the neighborhood existed before 1985.
You should get an oil tank search during the inspection period when buying a home because finding a tank during the tank sweep lead to three main problems:
-
Monetary Cost
-
Problems selling the house
-
Health hazards
The purpose of a sewer scope inspection is to determine the condition of the property's sewer line and to determine if the system is functioning as designed. ... A standard scope inspection for a single family residence takes approximately one hour to complete and costs $180 in the Portland metro area.
REMOTE CRAWLSPACE INSPECTION
The EPA recommends that all houses, regardless of what radon zone the house is located in, be tested for radon during point of sale. The most common procedure for radon testing during real estate transactions is for the potential buyer to request the radon test as part of the overall home inspection. The radon test is generally a separate service and must be requested. If the radon test is 4 pCi/L or greater, the EPA recommends the potential buyer negotiate with the seller to have a radon mitigation system installed with the stated goal of bringing the radon level in the home below 4 pCi/L.
FLOATING HOME DRY INSPECTION
This is considered the dry half of the inspection ( above water line )

When a roof material is too fragile or dangerous to walk on or the roof is not safely accessible, We use state of the art aerial drone with 4K camera and video to perform roof inspections. This technology allows us a birds eye view to detect any broken or missing roof materials and or flashings.
THERMAL IMAGING CAMERA
THIS IS A FREE SERVICE. This is one of the most amazing items that I use for my inspections. It give me that ablity to see cold and hot zones along with wet spots behind drywall. The ablity to see insufficent insulation . Ask if your inspectior uses this during the inspection.
UV BLACK LIGHT
A Manufactured home certification falls into 2 categories.
-
Permanent Foundation Certification
-
Additions Certification
Sometimes you made need both.
A permanent Foundation Certification inspection involves going under the home to verify elements have been put in place to tie down the home.
An Additions Certification involves verifying no additional structures are putting a load onto the home that the home was not designed for, such as a porch.
Often times the last service to be ordered for the sale of a manufactured home are the permanent foundation and/or addition(s) certification(s). To keep the overall cost down and provide a very timely service, we work very hard as a Registered Field Inspector with a licensed engineer to make sure that the inspection is completed in a timely manner. We usually have the signed certifications back the same day as the inspection.

I use a UV Black light when ever possible during a home inspection.
The light revels Pet stains and human markings. It allows the buyer to see what the naked eye is not seeing. This makes negotiating for flooring easier. Black lights will show anything florescent such as mineral despots and particle contamination. Some time black lights are used for mold detections.
