About Us
Members – Cladding Institute of NZ (CINZ)
We are Level 1 certified thermographers to ASTM standards - Cert. # 7484
In 2009, Dean authored a very popular thermal imaging manual which is now used by over 220 infrared inspection companies in 8 different countries. He also appears live on NZ talkback radio on a regular basis.
B.O.S.I.E T - H.U.E.T & EBS Certified by M&O Pacific Ltd (Issued in New Plymouth)
Infrared thermal imaging is our business and our passion. No matter what the size of the job, be it a home leak detection, pre-purchase moisture inspection or a commercial electrical predictive maintenance program, you’ll get 100% dedication and attention to detail each and every time.
Here’s our point of difference: We are independent inspectors. What this means to you, is that we don’t have a ‘vested interest’ in finding problems. You will get what you pay for, an inspection as it should be… not a sales pitch to ‘upsell you’ further services at the end of the inspection.
In addition to servicing home owners and investors, we have recently provided commercial infrared work for regional councils, one of NZ’s largest shopping chains, public companies, schools, insurance companies, builders, architects, offshore oil rigs, and many other reputable firms throughout NZ.
We are certified thermographers, specialising in the following:
Building / Roof Moisture Diagnostics – including….
• Insulation & material moisture characteristics
• Inspection techniques (interior, exterior)
• Detecting Evidence of Moisture and Leaks behind walls
• Pre purchase building envelope moisture reports
• Weather variables and models that effect thermal imaging inspections
• Required site conditions (Creating sufficient delta-T)
• Pre-inspection procedures
• Thermal signatures of latent moisture
• Mold detection
• Inspection, data recording, marking and mapping
• Guidelines for inspection (Safety practices, data gathering and report preparation)
Building Envelope Energy Loss Inspections – including…
• Insulation & material characteristics
