Just bought a home, fighting comfort problems, or dealing with water damage or rodents in the attic? We use thermal imaging and building science to find the real problem — and fix it right.
Tell us what's going on and we'll set up your thermal-imaging visit.
A standard home inspector can't see inside your walls, attic, or crawlspace. Our thermal cameras can — instantly. Red and orange show where heat, air, and your energy dollars are pouring out. Blue and green show a sealed, well-performing building envelope.
That's the difference between guessing and knowing — before we recommend a single product.
Before you settle into your new place, make sure the building envelope is sound — no hidden air leaks, moisture, or insulation failures that cost thousands later. Most inspectors don't use thermal imaging. We do, and you get a full report and SITE Score.
Schedule New Home Audit →One room's always too hot or freezing. The HVAC runs constantly but never feels right. Bills jumped. Dust and allergies won't quit. These usually aren't HVAC problems — they're building envelope problems, and we find the root cause.
Diagnose My Home →Water damage, contamination, or rodents in the attic? Other companies just clean it out and blow in insulation. We thermal-scan first, seal the air leaks and entry points, fix moisture intrusion, then reinstall — so the problem doesn't come back.
Schedule Attic Restoration Audit →No cost, no obligation. You walk away knowing exactly what's wrong with your home and what's worth fixing first — honest building science, not a sales pitch.
We scan your home to see exactly where heat, air, and moisture escape — visible instantly on infrared.
We pinpoint the root causes: air leaks, thermal bridging, missing vapor barriers, moisture intrusion.
A clear rating across Sound, Indoor air quality, Temperature, and Energy.
Exactly what to fix, in order, with a cost-vs-impact breakdown. No pressure.
Thermal images, SITE Score, findings, and recommendations — yours to keep either way.
Most Bay Area insulation companies are attic crews: clean it out, blow in fiberglass, leave. That's a one-dimensional fix. Your building envelope includes the attic, walls, crawlspace, windows, air sealing, and vapor barriers. When one part fails, the whole system suffers.
Every Vortex project is designed around four pillars, so your home performs across all of them — not just thermal resistance.
Stop noise transfer between rooms, floors, and from outside — a calmer, quieter home.
Seal out allergens, moisture, and pollutants. If anyone has allergies or asthma, you'll feel the difference.
No more second floor that's 10 degrees hotter. Every room comfortable at the same setting.
Lower bills and a smaller HVAC load. Your system stops running constantly because the envelope holds.
"The service provided by Vortex was excellent, fast, and their employees were respectful and professional. The price was very reasonable. We give this company 10-plus stars."
"Crew of three arrived on time and took pains to protect our floors and furniture — drilled, filled, and cleaned up spick and span. Great pricing, and highly recommended."
