What You Should Know

Tennessee Building Inspections - Certified - Licensed- Insured
Home and Building Diagnostic services require extensive knowledge, experience and equipment. No single piece of equipment or training course can prepare someone to accurately carry out a comprehensive building analysis. That's why we've spent thousand of hours in specialized training courses and conferences on a variety of home/ building related subjects. See
Our Training
Infrared Technology is a valuable tool for building diagnostics under the right conditions. HOWEVER, infrared is not always conclusive. Thermography is the ability to read temperature patterns in various materials under certain conditions, but the results can often be difficult to conclude without follow up testing with other equipment. For example, cold air can often be mistaken for water intrustion. Only a certified building inspection professional can properly diagnose these often difficult conditions.

We Are Third Party Inspectors *IMPORTANT*
Tennessee Building Inspections is an Independent Third Party Inspection Company. We do not offer repairs or remedial services on the properties we inspect. Why is that important? Inspecting for a fee and doing repairs on a four unit or less residential property in Tennessee without a home inspection license is a CONFLICT OF INTEREST and violation of the law. There are many documented cases where consumers have been mislead or taken advantage of by contractors who give false results to get repair work. Furthermore, most contractors do NOT carry Errors and Omissions Insurance to cover their mistakes.
