A viewing shows the surface. We bring instruments that read what sits underneath, and every reading lands in your report.
A viewing shows you the surface. Our inspectors carry diagnostic instruments that read what sits underneath it, and every reading they take lands in your report.
We run the thermal camera across the whole unit, not the one or two spots where trouble is already obvious. A solid wall hides plenty, and temperature differences give it away: damp tracking behind walls and ceilings, water escaping a leak, AC that cools in patches, electrical connections running hot, insulation and seals that have quietly failed. We find all of it without drilling a single hole.
The thermal camera flags a cold spot. The moisture meter settles whether it matters. It reads the actual moisture sitting inside walls, ceilings, floors, and window frames, so we can tell you whether that mark on the ceiling is an old stain that dried out years ago or a live leak you'd be buying along with the condo.
Every inspection includes an air quality meter reading: VOCs, formaldehyde, COâ‚‚, humidity, and temperature. Fresh paint, new built-in furniture, and adhesives off-gas formaldehyde and VOCs into a sealed, air-conditioned unit, and weak ventilation leaves COâ‚‚ nowhere to go. We measure what you'll actually breathe day to day, a check almost no other inspector runs.
Looking at an outlet tells you nothing. We test them. A multimeter and outlet tester confirm live, neutral, and earth wiring, voltage, and grounding at every point we can reach, which catches reversed polarity, missing earth, and dead circuits a walkthrough never surfaces.
A floor that slopes or a door frame gone out of true tells a story. We check them with a level: floors, door and window frames, counters, and the balcony's fall toward its drain. Out-of-level surfaces can point to settlement, structural movement, or rushed finishing, and a balcony that doesn't drain will pond water through every rainy season. When something reads off, we flag it and say when it's worth a structural engineer's look.
Every defect gets measured and photographed: crack widths, gaps, visible damage. Your report carries exact findings backed by evidence, not vague notes.
Note: thermal and moisture readings are screening tools. They pinpoint where a problem is, but when a defect needs deeper diagnosis or repair, we'll point you to the right specialist.
What buyers ask about the tools behind a Bangkok Inspect inspection
Every inspection uses diagnostic instruments, not just a visual walkthrough: a thermal imaging camera swept across the whole unit, a moisture meter to confirm hidden damp, an air quality meter for VOCs, formaldehyde, COâ‚‚ and humidity, a multimeter and outlet tester for wiring and grounding, and a level for floors and balcony drainage.
Yes. We sweep the whole unit with a thermal imaging camera, which reveals temperature differences where water tracks behind walls, ceilings, and floors. A moisture meter then confirms whether the area is actively wet. The process is non-destructive, so we locate hidden leaks and damp without drilling or opening up finishes.
Yes, on every inspection. We take an air quality meter reading for VOCs, formaldehyde, COâ‚‚, humidity, and temperature. Fresh paint, new built-in furniture, and adhesives off-gas formaldehyde and VOCs into sealed, air-conditioned units, and poor ventilation lets COâ‚‚ build up. Most Bangkok inspectors never measure this.
A non-destructive, instrument-backed inspection gives you documented evidence before you sign.
