Pest (Termite) Inspections
Protect Your Home from Hidden Damage
Wood-destroying insects like termites can cause serious structural damage without obvious signs. Our pest inspections help identify:
-
Termite activity or damage
-
Wood rot or deterioration
-
Conditions that attract pests
-
Evidence of past infestations
This service is especially important for homebuyers, older homes, and lender-required inspections.
Sewer Scope Inspections
See What’s Happening Underground
A sewer line issue can be one of the most expensive problems a homeowner faces—and it’s completely hidden from view without specialized equipment.
Our sewer scope inspections use a camera inserted into the main sewer line to check for:
-
Cracks, breaks, or collapsed lines
-
Tree root intrusion
-
Blockages or buildup
-
Aging or deteriorating pipes
This is a must-have add-on for older homes in Pittsburgh, where sewer lines may be decades old.
Radon Testing
Detect a Silent Health Risk
Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that can pose serious health risks if present at elevated levels. In fact, Pennsylvania is known for having higher radon levels than many other states.
Our radon testing provides:
-
Accurate measurement of indoor radon levels
-
Professional testing equipment and reporting
-
Results that meet real estate transaction requirements
Radon testing is highly recommended for all homebuyers in the Pittsburgh area.
