NYS Licensed Inspector #16000048235

Fully Insured

Whether you are buying or selling a home, having a home inspection is imperative to give you the peace of mind when it comes to making the decision.

Empire home inspection service was established in 2011. I provide quality home inspection services for pre-listing sellers and prospective homebuyers. I present a 100% transparent, unbiased, objective assessment of the home, and work for you – the client.

I will generate and distribute a detailed digital report to you within 24 hours of the inspection. Identify and explain various systems of the home with major or minor deficiencies that may be potential safety hazards or become large expenditures. At the end of my inspection, I complete a thorough walk-through with clients to discuss the deficiencies and attributes of the home. I enjoy educating clients with my analysis of the property.

Unfortunately most homebuyers spend less than one hour only looking at the cosmetic aesthetics of the home, the big kitchen or big bath, the hardwood floors or that big fenced in backyard without even considering the mechanical functioning of the home. Big-box-do-it-yourself home centers have made everyone a carpenter, plumber, electrician, and HVAC installer with no regards to codes or safety putting the unknowing potential homebuyer at risk for the unforeseen. Empire home inspection service will give the homebuyer a thorough, detailed report of the property and not some 1 Hour drive-thru inspection that other competitors are doing. With over 30 years in the construction industry, you are getting the observation of a seasoned professional with the knowledge that only comes with years of experience.

SERVICES

Thermal Imaging Analysis
Thermal imaging cameras are used to translate thermal energy (heat) into a visible light in order to analyze the efficiency of your home and reduce the amount of heating or cooling that is lost.
Moisture Detection Testing
Whether you are buying, selling, replacing windows or remodeling a home, moisture testing is imperative to determine hidden issues that will only get worse with time.
Home Warranty Inspections
Review of all interior, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, exterior, and decks. Be confident that the structure and systems in your home were installed properly and are functioning as intended before your one-year warranty expires on your new home.
Water Quality Sampling Analysis
Regularly monitoring water quality is a crucial part of identifying any existing problems, or any issues that could emerge in the future. Such as coliform (bacteria), lead, nitrates and nitrites.
Well Pump and Flow Testing
A well flow test will analyze the ability of the well to deliver water, and will monitor the well pump, pump control, water pressure tank, water piping, or fixtures.
Radon Gas Testing
Radon gas forms naturally from the decomposition of uranium, thorium, or radium(radioactive metals) in the ground which then can be breathed-in by the occupants of the home. Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. behind smoking.
