Why Thermographic Inspections Are The New Standard

6/3/2016

 
Thermographic inspections are fast becoming a standard pre-purchase test for homebuyers. 
It’s a great way to see what’s really going on with your home, and not just what the naked eye sees. There’s a lot going on here that you don’t realise, and sometimes it can mean the difference between buying a house and looking elsewhere. A thorough house inspection is one thing, but a thermographic inspection is something else altogether.

What is a thermographic inspection?

A thermographic or thermal imaging inspection is a non-intrusive, comprehensive look at the heat distribution of your home. These types of inspections are becoming more and more popular, especially for people considering buying a new home. With the rise in energy costs and a tougher economy, people are also looking into how to save money where heating is concerned.

The stigma of Auckland's leaky buildings and how to see a home for its true worth

3/8/2016

 
​They say buying or building a home can be one of the most stressful self-induced situations to endure. The financial costs and implications bring a level of stress that can put a potential home owner on a roller coaster full of peaks and troughs.

The same can be said (perhaps to a lesser degree) of those selling a home. 

Are we selling at the right time, for the right price; what will the market do in a year or two from now? The ‘what ifs’ are almost endless.

Why thermal imaging inspections are crucial in Auckland

12/23/2015

 
​When it comes to assessing the conditions of a home or building, what we see is not always what we get.  Even if you were to scrutinise every corner of the structure, it would still not be enough to identify potential problems with insulation, moisture leaks and electrical faults. 

The only way to see more than what’s visible with the naked eye is to undergo a Thermal Imaging inspection.  With specialised infrared technology, Heat Seekers can detect and measure the severity of heat and moisture-related issues. 
​
Servicing the Auckland region, Heat Seekers can identify structural and electrical concerns that wouldn’t otherwise be noticed until damage begins to occur.

Much like a car, minor issues can turn into major problems if left un-repaired.  You wouldn’t drive around for long with a cracked windscreen, would you?  We all know that even the smallest of cracks can spread quickly, but unlike cars, potentially dangerous issues in the home are far less obvious. 
​
When the visible signs of moisture intrusion, insulation voids and hot electrical components begin to show, it is often too late and the cost to repair rises exponentially.
