 
Because traditional visual home inspections do not always reveal every hidden problem Gulf Coast Property Inspections Inc. has implemented the use of
Thermal Imaging.
This modern technology allows us seeing through the infrared spectrum to locate many hidden defects and potential problems that typical home inspections companies would otherwise miss. We are able to look into your home like never before to provide you with a superior inspection of one of the biggest investments you will ever make.

Thermal Imaging significantly enhances detection abilities for:
- Structural defects
- Hidden leaks
- “Energy Loss” defects (insulation deficiencies, etc.)
- Electrical anomalies (overloaded breakers, etc.)
- Other potential problems
- Consider the expense of home repairs and the rising costs of energy and Thermal Imaging makes perfect sense. The savings from correcting “Energy Loss” defects alone could save you hundreds of dollars a year.
Infrared Thermography is here; it is cost-effective and will let you truly “see” your new home.
Note:
Thermography is the use of an infrared imaging and measurement camera to "see" and "measure" thermal energy emitted from an object Thermal, or infrared energy, is light that is not visible because its wavelength is too long to be detected by the human eye; it's the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we perceive as heat. Unlike visible light, in the infrared world, everything with a temperature above absolute zero emits heat. Even very cold objects, like ice cubes, emit infrared. The higher the object's temperature, the greater the IR radiation emitted. Infrared allows us to see what our eyes cannot. . Infrared thermography cameras produce images of invisible infrared or "heat" radiation and provide precise non-contact temperature measurement capabilities. Nearly everything gets hot before it fails, making infrared cameras extremely cost-effective, valuable diagnostic tools in many diverse applications.
