What is a home inspection and what is inspected?

Inspectors will identify any visible defects and/or conditions of a property, as well as the function and/or integrity of items, components and systems. Within 24-hours, a report will be provided that includes a summary of the property’s attributes—both negative and positive – with specific feedback and photos of the property taken during the inspection process. Axium’s Inspectors follow strict certification standards of practice.

Radon Testing
Receiving a diagnosis of elevated radon levels in your home is not just bad news, it is a grave warning. Radon is the leading cause of lung cancer in non-smokers and those who are exposed to it – both on its own and through other airborne contaminants – are at risk. This has become increasingly apparent to consumers, prompting more home buyers to demand that radon mitigation system testing be conducted and systems installed as part of their purchase agreements. Fortunately, our radon mitigation systems are equipped with the latest technology, enabling them to be quickly installed while also being energy-efficient and highly effective at reducing radon concentrations. Moreover, they have the additional benefit of improving indoor air quality by reducing other airborne pollutants and allergens.
What is Radon?
Radon is a naturally occurring, radioactive gas that is invisible, odorless, and tasteless. It has been detected in many residences in the US as well as other areas worldwide. Prolonged exposure to Radon gas can be extremely hazardous to one’s health, as it has been linked to serious illnesses such as lung cancer. The good news is that this threat of radon contamination can easily be identified with a simple test. If levels are found to be above what is deemed safe, there are various methods for mitigation which can reduce radon levels and protect the inhabitants of the home from potential health hazards.
What can be done?
Testing your home for radon is essential to protecting your family and yourself from the potential health risks associated with this radioactive gas. Axium offers a reliable third-party tester who calibrates machines regularly and follows the EPA’s standards for testing. Because there is no safe amount of radon, the EPA has established 4.0 Picocuries per liter as an acceptable guideline for livability. Our tests can provide you with peace of mind knowing that our tester is unbiased and that we are devoted to providing you with a safe environment instead of profiting from it. We have been helping to keep homes and commercial buildings safe for years by using advanced detection equipment and data analysis methods to ensure our results are as accurate as possible.
Radon Mitigation
Axium Radon Mitigations is the superior choice for your radon mitigation needs. Every system we install meets or exceeds the ASTM E-2121 Standard Practice, and our certified specialist will ensure that your system is properly installed and maximally effective. Your family’s health and safety is our top priority, so we guarantee to reduce radon levels to below the EPA acceptable level of 4.0 Picocuries (pCi/l).
We are dedicated to providing a comprehensive service, offering a 5-year warranty on parts plus a lifetime warranty on the entire system, as well as ensuring tight deadlines are met with maximum efficiency. Make Axium Radon Mitigations your go-to professionals when it comes to mitigating radon in your home – with us you get quality assurance and peace of mind at an unbeatable price!

Sewer Scope
Sewer lines can be a huge expense to replace or repair, so it is highly recommended that a report of the line’s condition be done as soon as possible. When purchasing a property, it is customary for the buyer to request an inspection of the sewer scope during the negotiation period. If any issues are detected with the sewer scope, then the seller may choose to correct them in order to successfully close the sale. Neglecting to get an inspection on a property’s sewer scope can lead to major financial setbacks down the road, since repairs can cost thousands and thousands of dollars. Taking proactive steps by requesting an inspection will help prevent any costly surprises in regards to your sewer system.

That’s why our experienced technicians provide comprehensive inspection services that are designed to detect any existing issues and provide you with an unbiased recommendation for addressing them immediately.

What is a Sewer Scope?
A sewer scope inspection is a comprehensive process that utilizes specialized tools and techniques to investigate the interior of a sewer line. Using high-tech video cameras, companies can examine the condition of a line from both inside and out. By doing this, they are able to identify any existing problems or potential future risks, such as clogs, cracks, root infiltration, corrosion, offset joints and misaligned pipes. This kind of inspection is often performed by homeowners, businesses, and municipalities in order to check on the health of their sewers and plan for necessary repairs or replacements. It’s an effective way to detect small issues before they become larger ones and can save property owners considerable time and money in the long run.
The video footage obtained from a sewer scope inspection is an invaluable asset for both homeowners and businesses as well as municipal organizations. The footage can be used to provide an accurate assessment of the extent of the damage, identify areas needing repair or improvement, and help estimate the cost of repairs. Homeowners and businesses can use this information to make informed decisions regarding their plumbing systems. Understanding exactly what needs repair and how much it will cost helps municipalities better allocate resources for necessary sewer line repairs.
Wood Destroying Organisms
A wood destroying organism (WDO) inspection is a thorough assessment of a home or property to determine if there is visible and accessible evidence of an infestation or damage caused by wood destroying organisms. Primarily, these pests are subterranean termites and dry wood termites, however wood destroying beetles and wood destroying fungi may also be considered in the evaluation. To prevent an infestation, it is essential to understand what conditions termites are looking for; they are ground insects that seek out habitats offering food, moisture, and shelter within close proximity of the ground. In other words, the presence of any moist area where wood meets soil can be a favorable environment for them. As such, homeowners should ensure that areas such as window frames and foundations are properly sealed in order to deter these organisms from entering the structure. Additionally, if there are already signs of infestation, timely treatments should be put in place to help eradicate the creatures and protect the property from potential damages caused by their activities.
A wood-destroying organism inspection report must include evidence of live termites or other wood-destroying insects, signs of damage to the property’s structure caused by these organisms, details of any prior treatments for infestations, and a definitive identification of the type of organism found. The inspector is required to provide not only the scientific name of the wood-damaging creature, but also its common name and precisely where it was detected. Furthermore, they will assess other conditions such as water leaks, dampness, and ventilation that may be conducive to termite activity.
One Year Warranty Inspection
A 1-Year Warranty Inspection is a vital step in the process of keeping your builder accountable for the quality of their product. Thirty days before the expiration of their One-Year New Home Warranty, Axium will send our licensed inspector to thoroughly inspect every aspect of your home. Our inspectors are experienced professionals, who work to uncover any potential defects that may need attention from your builder. We understand that it is impossible to construct a perfect home, no matter how new or old it is; however, we strive to find and identify any issues so they can be addressed with your builder in a timely fashion.

Furthermore, upon completion of the inspection you will be given an in-depth online report to review in order to get a full picture of your home’s condition. Not only that but Axium also provides additional services such as helping you advocate for yourself should any issues arise between you and your builder.

Thermal Infrared Inspections
Axium Inspections provides Infrared-Thermal Inspections, a cutting-edge technology that utilizes a thermal imaging camera to pinpoint potential issues in buildings that the human eye cannot detect. By using this nonintrusive method, our team is able to quickly identify structural and environmental issues without having to resort to destructive probing techniques.

With an Infrared-Thermal Inspection from Axium, you get a cost-effective and highly accurate method for assessing the condition of a residential or commercial property. Our advanced equipment allows us to detect hidden problems early on, so we can help you save time and money by avoiding costly repairs down the line.
What is Thermography?
Thermography is a highly specialized method of using an infrared imaging and measurement camera to capture and measure thermal energy emanating from an object. This thermal or infrared energy is composed of light waves that are longer than what can be perceived by the human eye, falling within the broader spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. Every object with a temperature above absolute zero emits heat in the form of infrared radiation, even those that appear cold to the touch such as ice cubes. The higher the temperature of an object, the greater its emission of infrared radiation, which thermographic cameras are able to detect and visualize. These high-tech devices are able to accurately measure temperatures without physical contact, providing invaluable data for a variety of applications across numerous industries.
Pool Inspections
As a potential homebuyer, it is essential to thoroughly research the history and condition of any swimming pool included in the property. It is highly recommended to enlist the services of a professional inspector to assess the pool’s current state and operational capabilities. Depending on your local laws or mortgage lender requirements, an inspection may be mandatory prior to purchase. Such an examination could potentially save thousands in repairs and upkeep costs, as well as provide you with peace of mind that your pool complies with all legal and safety standards. The inspector will carefully inspect all components, including filter systems, pumps, tiles, ladders, handrails and other equipment for signs of wear. He or she might also recommend regular maintenance programs such as brushing and vacuuming to keep the pool clean and healthy.
When do you need a pool Inspector?
We strive to evaluate the condition of the pool with the same attention and detail that we would any other major aspect of a home such as structural or foundational evaluation. Unfortunately, pools can start showing signs of deterioration even when they seem fine at first glance. These types of problems can end up being expensive, as they often come unexpectedly.
Our highly trained team is thoroughly knowledgeable on what to look for during a pool inspection and will point out any potential signs of damage. We make sure to provide detailed notes and photos in our online reporting software so that you have all the information necessary to confidently enter into the transaction process. Our inspections cover everything from complete surface evaluations, equipment inspections (pumps, filters, timers, lighting, electrical systems), pool coping assessments as well as leak detection and tile inspections.
Sprinkler Inspections
Investing in a home with a sprinkler system can save homeowners time, energy and money when it comes to keeping their yard looking its best. However, before making such an investment, it is wise to have a Sprinkler Inspection from Axium to check the condition of the system and ensure it is functioning properly. This inspection will check for common problems such as high water bills due to incorrect settings or pressure; costly maintenance fees; and water damage caused by leaks or deficiencies in the system. By having a professionally carried out Sprinkler Inspection from Axium, you can have peace of mind knowing that your sprinkler system is in good operating condition and that any potential problems have been identified so they can be addressed in time.
A Sprinkler Inspection with Axium is a comprehensive assessment of the whole state of your sprinkler system. Our inspector will thoroughly inspect every component of the system, as well as perform functionality tests on all heads, observe head positioning, check controllers, connections, sensors and analyse pressure levels. We take photos and make detailed notes about any problems observed or potential issues spotted. All information collected during the inspection will be conveniently presented in our easy-to-use online reporting software within 24 hours.
Regularly inspecting and testing your sprinkler system is essential to guarantee its proper functioning. If you live in an area where temperatures drop below freezing during wintertime, it’s recommended that you either drain the sprinklers yourself or hire a professional to do it for you in order to prevent any damage from occurring.
Signs that your sprinkler system may require an inspection or maintenance include sputtering or chaotic water pressure, low or high water pressure, leaking valves, excessive water pooling, and higher than normal utility/water costs. These are all indications that something is wrong with the system. Sputtering can be caused by clogged nozzles or clogged filters in the pipes, while low and high water pressure can be indicative of problems with the flow rate from the main pipe to individual sprinklers. Leaking valves are a sign of faulty components, and excessive water pooling indicate incorrect irrigation head orientation or broken pipes which allow too much water out of the system. In addition to these signs, higher-than-normal utility/water costs can signal a problem with the running of your sprinkler system; if it is using more resources than usual then it is likely that there is an issue which requires attending to.
Septic Inspections
The cost of repairing a private septic system can be astronomical, with repairs ranging from $35,000 to $40,000. This makes it absolutely essential to inspect the system before investing in a home to ensure you are making an informed decision during the negotiation process. Not ensuring regular maintenance of your private septic system can lead to serious consequences for both people and the environment. Poorly maintained systems can cause groundwater contamination and spread pollutants into rivers, wells, lakes, and other bodies of water. Additionally, depending on where you live certain regulations may be enforced by local governments in order to protect public health; this could mean additional fines or penalties if a private septic system is found to be excessively neglected.
When it comes to keeping your septic system in good condition, there are a few tips you should keep in mind. To start, only grass should be planted near or around the system as roots from trees and bushes can cause disruptions and blockages in the pipes. In addition, drainage pumps, water redirection pipes, and other fixtures need to be kept away from the drainfield as too much flooding could hinder the treatment process and cause damage to interior components. Household items such as paper towels and hygiene products should also be avoided at all costs as they can create blockages that lead to expensive repairs down the road. Furthermore, it is recommended to have your septic system evaluated by a professional every three years or so to ensure that everything is running smoothly. Finally, make sure to regularly pump your septic tank for optimal performance. Following these steps will not only help preserve your septic system but also reduce long term maintenance costs.
