Specialized Testing & Add-On Services

Radon Testing

Monmouth County has varying radon levels, and homes built on the varied soil types of Middletown can be susceptible to trapped soil gases. Our NRPP-certified testing uses continuous digital monitors that record readings over 48 hours, providing EPA-compliant results with clear guidance.

Drone Roof Inspections

Southern Middletown homes feature a wide variety of rooflines, from sprawling, low-pitched suburban ranches to massive, multi-story luxury estates with complex architectural angles. Our FAA-certified drone operators capture detailed aerial imagery and detect hidden defects safely, without foot traffic on your roof.

Wood-Destroying Insect & Environmental Checks

Heavily wooded neighborhoods like Oak Hill and Lincroft, as well as properties near Shadow Lake or the Navesink River, provide environments where pests thrive. We check for evidence of termites, carpenter ants, and powderpost beetles, along with visible signs of mold or asbestos. Detecting these early helps prevent costly future repairs.

Local Expertise That Matters

Middletown South’s unique mix of heavily wooded estates, established suburban neighborhoods, and riverfront properties presents specific inspection challenges. Homes situated in River Plaza face Navesink River winds and potential moisture risks in basements. Meanwhile, older inland properties in Lincroft or Oak Hill frequently exhibit expected foundation settlement, grading and drainage issues due to mature tree roots, or rely on aging well and septic systems.

Our inspectors know what’s normal for Middletown homes and what’s not. You’ll get a calm, honest perspective no exaggeration, no confusion, just clear answers about your property’s true condition.
