Sheldon's Home Inspections

Why choose us?

I work directly for you, the client, with no middleman or ties to real estate agents. I do not pay for or incentivize referrals. My goal is to provide you an accurate report of the condition of the property. The home inspection will offer you an expert opinion on the property's condition, which can help you avoid unnecessary and costly repairs, and understand immediate and future costs. I identify issues such as structural problems and safety hazards, as well as assessing the home's plumbing, electrical, and heating and cooling systems. I will answer any questions you have, feel free to ask.

"We Use the Tools Engineers Use: Zip Level, Thermal Camera, & Moisture Meter Included!"

🔬 Next-Level Inspections: Technology You Can Trust

At Sheldon's Home Inspection, we go beyond the standard visual check. We invest in industry-leading technology to find problems others miss, giving you the clearest, most confident view of your potential home.

The Three Diagnostic Tools That Protect Your Investment:

1. The Zip Level (Foundation & Structure)

A traditional level can't measure the entire foundation, but the Zip Level can. This precision altimeter provides engineer-grade accuracy to map the entire floor and foundation elevation.

✅ Finds Hidden Movement: Detects subtle settling, rising, or foundation shifts across the entire structure, often before visual signs appear.
✅ Data, Not Guesswork: Gives you precise data to take to a structural engineer, or gives you peace of mind that the movement is within an acceptable range.
✅ Avoids Costly Surprises: Knowing the foundation's true condition before you buy can save tens of thousands in future repair costs.

2. The Thermal Camera (Infrared Imaging)

We use thermal cameras to see what's invisible to the naked eye—temperature variations that signal hidden problems. This non-invasive tool is a game-changer for finding:

🔥 Missing Insulation: Easily spots cold or hot air leaks and gaps in attic or wall insulation, which can mean high energy bills.
💧 Concealed Leaks: Detects temperature differences caused by hidden water intrusion behind walls, ceilings, and under floors (moisture is cooler).
⚡ Electrical Hotspots: Identifies overheating components in the electrical panel, wiring, or outlets that could pose a fire hazard.

3. The Moisture Meter (Water Damage Detector)

While the thermal camera locates a potential issue, the moisture meter confirms it. This tool measures the exact moisture content in materials like drywall and wood.

💧 Confirms Water Damage: Provides verifiable, pin-point data on the presence and extent of dampness, distinguishing condensation from an active leak.
🚫 Prevents Mold: Early detection of elevated moisture content is the best defense against future mold growth and the resulting health and structural issues.
🏠 Ensures Structural Integrity: Checks structural wood components to ensure they are dry and not at risk of rot or deterioration.

🛡️ The Sheldon's Advantage:

We combine visual expertise with digital diagnostics. Book an inspection that leaves no stone (or wall!) unturned.
