SmartRegs Inspections

Boulder’s SmartRegs program is a requirement to bring rental properties in the city up to a baseline energy efficiency rating. Our energy specialists can perform these inspections, and help make a plan if the unit does not pass.

Dark Sky Lighting Requirements

To comply with the rental license requirements, rental properties in Boulder must meet the city’s outdoor lighting requirements. Our inspectors are able to provide an outdoor lighting certification on duplexes to multi-family properties.

RADON TESTING

For Single Family and Multi-Family Rentals

Radon is a carcinogenic gas that is hazardous to inhale and prevalent throughout Colorado. The best way to determine the radon levels in your properties is to conduct a short-term radon test. At Scott Home Services, we have a team of NRPP-certified specialists who are trained to test for radon in single family or multi-family homes. Make sure that your tenants are safe – Schedule Your Radon Tests Today!

MOLD INSPECTIONS AND TESTING

Evaluate your properties for traces of harmful mold

Mold growth can often develop when excessive moisture accumulates indoors. Sometimes the source can remain undetected, eventually leading to harmful airborne mold spores in the living space. Our two specialized services – mold inspections and mold air sample testing – can help you discover potential mold that could be unhealthy and unsafe for your tenants. Schedule Your Mold Services with Team Scott!
