A thermal camera reads the surface temperature of every wall, ceiling, and floor it's pointed at. Materials that are wet, poorly insulated, or carrying an electrical fault sit at a different temperature than everything around them — and that difference shows up as a pattern we investigate and confirm.
It's a powerful add-on to a standard 120-point inspection, turning hidden conditions into visible findings. Learn more about thermal imaging or about home inspection in Glencoe, MN.

Glencoe is the seat of McLeod County, a regional hub along Highway 212 about thirteen and a half miles southeast of Hutchinson. Its housing is the most varied in the area — stately older homes near the historic downtown and courthouse, established mid-century neighborhoods, and newer subdivisions on the edges of town.
Glencoe's stately homes near the courthouse square were built long before modern insulation codes, and many have been re-roofed and re-sided over the decades — hiding gaps a thermal camera reads instantly. In a town where the housing ranges from 1900s downtown homes to fresh Highway 212 subdivisions, infrared is the great equalizer.
Infrared maps the cold patches where attic and wall insulation is thin, settled, or missing entirely — the gaps that drive Glencoe heating bills up all winter long.
A loose or overloaded breaker runs hot long before it fails. Infrared flags those warm spots at the panel — a safety find no visual check in a Glencoe home can make.
Damp drywall, leaking windows, and water tracking behind finishes — confirmed with a moisture meter.
Cold voids in attics and walls where insulation is thin, settled, or never installed.
Drafts at rim joists, outlets, recessed lights, and window frames that bleed conditioned air.
