A CLOSER LOOK INVESTIGATIVE

FLOORING, MOLD & MOISTURE 

CONSULTANTS & INSPECTIONS 

Located in Crossville TN, and serving all central Tennessee.

 

Do you have flooring, moisture, or mold problems in your Tennessee (lower Kentucky) home or business, and need help in solving it? Do you have a flooring warranty issue-or an installation issue? Is your crawlspace designed properly, or have a water leak that cannot be found? Do you represent an insurance company, and need to know if a claim had previous damage? Do you need pre-installation inspection-or specifications? If you do, we have your answers.

 

Flooring/Moisture & Mold are related. Moisture is the #1 reason that floors fail, and when there is a moisture problem there also can be a mold problem. We investigate and prove all the reasons of failure. We do investigative inspections to verify if you have a problem, and to prove who caused it. And if you hire us to do so, we furnish recommendations to correct the problem. When we do a report, you will be able to take it to the bank. Besides evidence, we guarantee it with our $10,000 NACHI backed Honor coverage. Furthermore if we can't find evidence of your problem, there is no charge.

 

We are a company located in Central Tennessee and have done many 1000’s of such consultations & inspections. In fact, we are the only full-time such specialty Inspection / Consulting Company in the state of Tennessee (to our knowledge).  We are certified by many training schools, and associations and inspect every type of flooring, sub-floors and moisture problems. We utilize Infrared Camera and many more technologies. We also inspect concrete floors in accordance with ASTM industry standards for moisture emissions.

 

Do you want to go to court? Normally, nobody does. But are you aware that many inspectors pride themselves in the number of inspections that they do, that actually do go to court? We feel the opposite. We take pride in the fact that so few of our inspections have been disputed and gone into any type of arbitration. But, we are available to be hired to appear in court as an expert witness when needed. Or perhaps you can even stop legal action, by hiring us as a second opinion. If you would like to read about what an "Expert Witness" is click here

 

A Closer Look Consultations has been doing this same type work since 1991 and have many more years than that in the floor-covering and moisture industry (see "Company Profile").
