Where Building Science Meets Human Health

We Use [Advanced Tools] to Uncover What Others Miss

Forensic Structural Diagnostics

Precision Moisture Mapping

Using the Tramex ME5 to identify hidden moisture within building materials at multiple depths.

Infrared Thermal Imaging

Detecting thermal bridges and dew point failures invisible to the naked eye.

Psychrometric Analysis

Precision hygrometry to evaluate how air-vapor dynamics affect your indoor environment.

Non-Invasive Boroscopy

High-definition visual inspection behind walls, cabinets, and inside HVAC systems without damage.

Airflow & Pressure Testing

Smoke pen diagnostics to find leaks in the building envelope and sewage gas entry points.

Advanced Environmental Sampling

Air & Surface Analysis

Bio-Pump air capture and certified lab swabs to identify active fungal presence.

Historical Dust Sampling

DNA-based testing (ERMI, EMMA, Mycotoxins) to capture a long-term snapshot of your home’s health that air samples often miss.
