Find What’s Happening Behind the Walls

Our thermal imaging inspections give residential clients a way to spot hidden damage early, without damaging the home in the process. Whether you’re dealing with strange odors, cold spots, or unexplained staining, our inspection helps reveal the cause. We use professional-grade thermal cameras and moisture meters during active water runs to detect potential leaks and problem areas with accuracy.

Here’s what our thermal inspections include:

  • Scans of walls, ceilings, floors, and insulation
  • Water testing and drain checks for hidden leaks
  • Moisture meter readings to confirm results
  • Electrical thermal scanning for overheated circuits
  • Plumbing thermal imaging to check behind walls and under floors
  • Review of structural, roofing, and ventilation conditions

This service also works well alongside mold testing. You’ll receive a clear PDF report with images and notes that outline the issue and what to do next.

Frequently Asked Questions About Thermal Imaging Inspections

  • What is a thermal imaging home inspection?

    A thermal imaging (or infrared) inspection uses an advanced infrared camera to measure surface temperatures inside a home. Instead of just relying on the naked eye, this technology allows the inspector to see temperature variations that indicate hidden problems behind the drywall, under the floors, or up in the ceilings.

  • What exactly can a thermal camera detect?

    Thermal imaging is one of the most powerful tools for finding hidden defects that a standard visual inspection might miss. It is commonly used to detect:

    • Hidden moisture: Plumbing leaks, roof leaks, and water intrusion around windows.
    • Electrical hazards: Overloaded circuit breakers, hot spots in wiring, and faulty outlets that could pose a fire risk.
    • Energy loss: Missing or failing insulation in walls and attics, as well as drafts around doors and windows.
    • HVAC issues: Leaking ductwork or uneven heating and cooling distribution.
  • Can thermal imaging see through walls?

    No, thermal imaging cameras do not have “X-ray vision” and cannot literally see through walls, furniture, or cabinets. Instead, they detect the surface temperature of the wall. For example, if there is a leaking pipe inside a wall, the cold water cools the drywall. The camera detects that cold spot on the surface, alerting the inspector to investigate further with a moisture meter.

  • Does a thermal imaging inspection detect mold?

    A thermal camera cannot directly “see” mold. However, mold needs moisture to grow. Thermal imaging is highly effective at pinpointing hidden pockets of water intrusion or dampness behind walls. By finding the hidden moisture, we can identify the exact areas where mold is likely to grow or is already thriving.

  • Is thermal imaging worth the cost during a home inspection?

    Absolutely. Many major home defects—such as slow plumbing leaks inside a wall or overloaded electrical panels—show zero visible signs to the naked eye until they cause catastrophic damage. Thermal imaging gives you a “behind-the-scenes” look at the home, potentially saving you thousands of dollars in hidden repairs and giving you true peace of mind before closing.

  • How do you confirm what the thermal camera is showing?

    A thermal camera is an indicator, not a final diagnosis. When our thermal camera reveals a temperature anomaly (like a cold spot that looks like water), we always verify the finding using secondary tools, such as a specialized moisture meter, to confirm whether a leak is actually present.
