Thermal Imaging Inspection Service
At Eyeball Inspections, thermal imaging inspection services are used specifically to help identify hidden moisture concerns that may not be visible during a standard visual inspection. Infrared thermal imaging is included as a courtesy with all residential home inspections and commercial property inspections to help provide a more complete and thorough inspection.
Advanced thermal imaging inspection tools are used during each home inspection
Thermal imaging for hidden moisture detection can help reveal suspicious temperature differences that may indicate active leaks, past leaks, elevated moisture levels, or concealed moisture intrusion. When suspicious areas are identified, additional moisture detection tools may be used to help verify findings.

What Is a Thermal Imaging Inspection?

A thermal imaging inspection is a non-invasive inspection method that uses an infrared camera to identify temperature differences on surfaces throughout a property. Moisture often causes materials to cool differently than surrounding dry materials, which can create visible thermal patterns.
Thermal imaging does not see through walls or determine the exact source of moisture. Instead, it helps identify suspicious temperature anomalies that may indicate the presence of hidden moisture.
Hidden Moisture Conditions a Thermal Imaging Inspection May Help Reveal
Thermal imaging may help identify hidden moisture concerns in many different areas throughout a property, including:
Water damage discovered at the base of garage walls -Thermal imaging inspection was then performed to determine if the condition was active
Thermal imaging inspection performed during a home inspection found hidden moisture at the base of the garage walls
- Roof leaks and hidden moisture intrusion at ceilings
- Plumbing leaks inside walls and at walls around plumbing fixtures
- Moisture intrusion around tubs, showers, and toilets
- Moisture intrusion below bathroom flooring
- Moisture intrusion around windows and doors
- Ceiling stains with possible hidden moisture concerns
- Moisture intrusion around chimneys and fireplaces
- Leaks below HVAC equipment and condensate lines
- Moisture intrusion below water heaters
- Laundry room plumbing leaks
- Moisture intrusion below dishwasher areas
- Kitchen plumbing leaks below sinks and behind cabinets
- Moisture intrusion below refrigerator water supply lines
- Moisture intrusion at garage ceilings below bathrooms or laundry rooms
- Hidden moisture below patched or repaired areas
Why a Thermal Imaging Inspection Matters
Hidden moisture can lead to damaged building materials, wood deterioration, staining, damaged flooring, damaged drywall, elevated humidity, and possible microbial growth concerns if not corrected.

In many cases, moisture intrusion can exist for long periods of time before visible damage becomes obvious. By using thermal imaging during the inspection process, concealed moisture concerns may be identified earlier before they become more extensive and expensive.
