Additional Services
Infrared Inspection
Infrared Thermal Imaging is a state-of-the-art technology that reveals details about your property which are undetectable using conventional inspection methods.
Thermal imaging recognizes heat signatures rather than light, meaning you can see things that would otherwise be hidden. We’re able to find issues like water intrusion, heat loss and ventilation problems, potential pest infestations, hidden roof leaks, faulty insulation and electrical faults. We provide Thermal Imaging with every inspection.
Radon Testing
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that causes lung cancer if high concentrations are present in the air. Radon collects in buildings and homes by seeping through cracks in the foundation.
Since it’s an odorless gas, a professional inspection is required to detect the presence of radon. Though radon causes major health issues, it is easy to mitigate radon once you know it’s a problem. An inexpensive radon test can be added to your home inspection or can be ordered separately. Hire GSI to test for radon today and protect your family!

If you’ve been approved for a 203k loan for renovation or construction in the Metro Atlanta area, it’s essential you hire a 203k approved inspector for your home!
