A viewing shows you the surface. Our inspectors carry diagnostic instruments that read what sits underneath it, and what they find is documented, photographed, and put in your report.
We run the thermal camera across the whole unit, not the one or two spots where trouble is already obvious. A solid wall hides plenty, and temperature differences give it away: damp tracking behind walls and ceilings, water escaping a leak, AC that cools in patches, electrical connections running hot, insulation and seals that have quietly failed. We find all of it without drilling a single hole.
The thermal camera flags a cold spot. The moisture meter settles whether it matters. It reads the actual moisture sitting inside walls, ceilings, floors, and window frames, so we can tell you whether that mark on the ceiling is an old stain that dried out years ago or a live leak you'd be buying along with the condo.
Every inspection includes an air quality meter reading: AQI, COβ, CO, formaldehyde, TVOC, PM2.5, PM10, humidity, and temperature. Fresh paint, new built-in furniture, and adhesives can off-gas formaldehyde and VOCs into a sealed, air-conditioned unit; weak ventilation leaves COβ nowhere to go. We measure what you'll actually breathe day to day.
When the unit's water is on, we sample pH, TDS, and salinity, and the reading goes into the inspection evidence. If the water hasn't been turned on yet, we skip this one and say so in the report.
Looking at an outlet tells you nothing. We test them. A multimeter and outlet tester confirm live, neutral, and earth wiring, voltage, and grounding at every point we can reach, which catches reversed polarity, missing earth, and dead circuits a walkthrough never surfaces.
A floor that slopes or a door frame gone out of true tells a story. We check floors, door and window frames, counters, and balcony fall with a level. Then we tap floor tiles with a rod β a solid sound means the tile's properly bonded, a hollow echo means an air gap that'll eventually crack or lift it. We also roll a golf ball across the slab: if it moves on its own, the floor isn't level.
Every defect gets measured and photographed: crack widths, gaps, visible damage. Your report carries exact findings backed by evidence, not vague notes.
Note: thermal and moisture readings are screening tools. They pinpoint where a problem is, but when a defect needs deeper diagnosis or repair, we'll point you to the right specialist.
What buyers ask about the tools behind a Bangkok Inspect inspection
Every inspection uses diagnostic instruments: thermal imaging camera, moisture meter, air quality meter for VOCs, formaldehyde, COβ, and PM2.5, multimeter and outlet tester, level with tap test and golf ball roll test, tape measure, and water quality testing for pH, TDS, and salinity when the unit's water is on.
Yes. We sweep the whole unit with a thermal imaging camera, which reveals temperature differences where water tracks behind walls, ceilings, and floors. A moisture meter then confirms whether the area is actively wet. The process is non-destructive, so we locate hidden leaks and damp without drilling or opening up finishes.
Yes, on every inspection. We take an air quality meter reading for AQI, COβ, CO, formaldehyde, TVOC, PM2.5, PM10, humidity, and temperature. Fresh paint, built-in furniture, and adhesives can off-gas into sealed units, and poor ventilation lets COβ build up. Readings are taken inside the unit during the inspection.
A non-destructive, instrument-backed inspection gives you documented evidence before you sign.
