Home Maintenance
Your home in most likely the largest investment that you will ever make in your lifetime. You know that there are things around the house that need attention, but you just don’t have the skills or the time to do it right now.

You know that regular maintenance for your car will make it last longer and increase its resale value, but why aren’t you applying that same principle to your home? You spend a lot more time in it, and you paid a whole lot more for it. Your family’s safety and well being heavily depends on the proper operation of your home, but many people put this off because of time or money. With today’s lifestyle, where does one find the time to take care of it all? Besides, there are a lot better things to do with what little spare time that you have. Wouldn’t it be nice to have one company that you trust to handle all the maintenance and repair of your property? Wouldn’t it be better to know that the repairs were already covered? No shocking bill every time they came out? Lean more HERE!.
What is an Energy Audit?
A home energy audit is the first step to assess how much energy your home consumes and to evaluate what measures you can take to make your home more energy efficient. An audit will show you problems that may, when corrected, save you significant amounts of money over time. During the audit, you can pinpoint where your house is losing energy. Audits also determine the efficiency of your home's heating and cooling systems. An audit may also show you ways to conserve hot water and electricity. You can perform a simple energy audit yourself, or have a professional energy auditor carry out a more thorough audit.
A professional auditor uses a variety of techniques and equipment to determine the energy efficiency of a structure. Thorough audits often use equipment such as blower doors, which measure the extent of leaks in the building envelope, and infrared cameras, which reveal hard-to-detect areas of air infiltration and missing insulation.
Thermal Imaging
Thermal Imaging cameras- some of you may know what they are, but many have never heard of them.
So what are they and what can they do? Here’s the technical stuff.
Thermal Imaging cameras see light that is in the heat spectrum, but invisible to the naked eye. They can record the temperature variations in most objects. In buildings they can detect the temperature differences on just about any surface. We can literally ‘see’ where there is insufficient insulation, or no insulation, air leaks in the walls, joints, etc. We can detect hidden moisture before it creates a catastrophic situation. You may have a roof or window leak that is presently small enough to not notice. Left over time, it can damage framing members or worse yet feed mold spores that will make indoor air quality unlivable. We can do so much with these cameras it will amaze you. Did you know that most Fire Companies utilize a thermal imaging camera? ........Read More!
