Thermal Imaging Inspection
Infrared inspection with a FLIR thermographic camera enables a powerful noninvasive method to monitor and diagnose the condition of buildings. The inspector can quickly identify problem areas that can't be seen by the naked eye, eliminating destructive probing methods. Results are captured and documented into professional reports, and provide tangible proof of the inspector’s findings.
Ian S. Laing of First Resort Residential and Commercial Building Inspection Services is a Certified Level I Infrared Thermographer and Certified Building Science Thermographer (CBST) with FLIR Systems. First Resort offers a unique value added service to residential and commercial clients.
Environmental Data Report
Developed exclusively for home buyers and sellers, the EDR Neighborhood Environmental Report™ identifies potential environmental risks such as leaking underground tanks, landfills and toxic waste sites on or near a property that may threaten a family’s health or the value of their investment. It is generated from the largest collection of local, state and federal hazard records in the U.S. by the country’s most trusted source of environmental risk information.
The EDR Report is delivered in a comprehensive, easy to understand summary and is available to home buyers, home sellers, and homeowners through First Resort Residential and Commercial Building Inspection Services.
