Abe the Inspector provides a wide array of Inspection Services for your home and business. Custom Inspections mean you get what you need, professionally, promptly, and cost-effectively!
General Inspection
Abe the Inspector conducts full service home inspections, based on the homeowner’s needs. Careful inspection and detailed reporting yield comprehensive, useful reports that identify safety, structural, and functional issues effecting the property. When you’re buying a home, Abe goes through the house to ensure that all issues are identified so you can be comfortable that it’s safe and secure to live there. And Abe will be there with you at the final walk-through to ensure all contracted items have been addressed.
Leak Inspection
When you have a leak…….it can be a very tricky, costly problem. 
You know the feeling: it’s pouring rain outside and you see the water running down the sheetrock in your house. You know you need to fix the leak but you don’t know where it is!
That’s where Abe the Inspector’s InfraRed Camera makes a difference. The special camera lets Abe ‘see’ inside the walls and identify the source point of the leak. Armed with that information, a qualified contractor can repair that leak properly the first time.
If you suspect or know that there is a mold problem in your home, you need to know the extent of cleanup needed, whether mold is cosmetic (inexpensive to clean), allergenic, or toxic
(requiring special care). Mold evaluation is a very important part of home inspection as the bacteria from mold can lead to serious health problems for anyone living or working within the space.
Calling Abe the Inspector to conduct a professional inspection is the right choice and provides you with the thorough inspection you need to properly identify the problem. Abe the Inspector uses thermal imaging to detect moisture that you would otherwise not be able to see. Abe can also include a leak detection and moisture analysis, air quality analysis, relative humidity testing, and drainage evaluation so you can have a comprehensive remediation plan if needed.
Radon Inspection
Radon is a colorless, odorless, tasteless radioactive gas that’s formed during the natural breakdown of uranium in soil, rock, and water. Radon exits the ground and can seep into your home through cracks and holes in the foundation. Radon gas can also contaminate well water.
Health officials have determined that radon gas is a carcinogen that can cause lung cancer. Studies show that radon is more of a risk to smokers, but nonsmokers have a slightly elevated chance of developing lung cancer when radon levels in the home are high. The only way to find out if your house contains radon gas is to perform radon tests.
Abe the Inspector can visit your home and, using state-of-the-art tools and techniques, determine if you have radon exposure. Complete the online order form or call Abe today to schedule an appointment.
Termite Inspection
Abe the Inspector will conduct a thorough, visual inspection of the readily accessible areas of your home, looking for evidence of wood-destroying insects and wood-destroy
ing organisms. Abe will also look for ants, bugs and fungus. Sometimes, in areas where Drywood termites are prevalent, and in houses where there are no sub-areas, Abe will go into the attic and look for Drywood termite pellets (fecal matter). Abe the inspector will visually inspect the entire interior of your home including any sub-space such as basements and crawlspaces, as well as the exterior of the property.
Infrared Inspection
Abe the Inspector is specially trained in infrared photography and its application to property inspections. 
That means that Abe knows how to ‘see’ inside your walls to detect structural issues that can result in leaks and drafts in your living space.
When you have a leak or feel a draft in your home, call Abe the Inspector. Abe is specially trained in infrared photography so he can quickly detect issues and recommend appropriate solutions.
