Radon Testing:
Radon concentrations are measured by using charcoal absorption
methods. Samples are collected after 48 hours of placement. Samples
are sent to a certified lab for analysis, results are sent within 72
hours. Our inspectors are NJDEP certified professionals.
Wood Destroying Insect Inspections:
In the United States, wood destroying insects are a widespread
problem. The problem is compounded by the fact that these insects
are often not found until they have caused costly damage to a home.
For this reason, most mortgage companies require a termite
certification prior to mortgage approval. The certification
indicates that the house is free of wood destroying insects. Here at
Serenity Home Inspections, we provide efficient and reliable
testing. Once your home is found to be free of wood destroying
insects, we will issue a termite certification.

Sellers Pre-Listing Inspections:
As you prepare to put your home on the market, you will find a
pre-listing inspection imperative. The inspection will document
problems in your home and enable you to make all repairs prior to

of your home.
