TECHNOLOGY EDGE
Professional Tools We Use
We don't rely on eyeballing. Our inspectors use professional digital equipment to detect issues invisible to the human eye.
Infrared Thermal Camera
Detects hidden moisture behind plaster, concealed pipe leaks, and electrical hot spots before damage becomes visible.
Pinless Moisture Meter
Accurately measures moisture percentage inside walls, ceilings, and floors to catch dampness early.
Laser Alignment Level
Measures floor levelness, wall vertical plumb, and tile alignment with sub-millimeter precision.
Digital Socket Tester
Tests electrical socket polarity, earthing loop resistance, and ELCB trip function across all switchboards.
Acoustic Tap Hammer
Identifies hollow spaces underneath vitrified floor tiles and un-bonded plastering through sound frequency response.
Digital Vernier Caliper
Measures gap sizes, frame clearances, glass thickness, and door fitting tolerances.
