AlouTech Visual Inspection

AlouTech Scrutinizer operator using the controller beside a crawlspace access point

$150

Currently available as a Houston crawlspace inspection and visual documentation service. An AlouTech technician arrives onsite with a Scrutinizer and operates the rover for the customer or responsible professional, acting as remote eyes and legs in accessible crawlspace or inspection areas.

The flat $150 fee includes technician travel within the Houston service area and a one-hour scheduled visual documentation visit, so the customer can view conditions without personally operating a Scrutinizer.

Important limitation

This is visual documentation only. It is not a licensed engineering, structural, environmental, mold, pest, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, real estate, or code-compliance inspection.

What you are booking

A one-hour, technician-operated visual pass that starts at the scheduled time. AlouTech brings the rover, controls it from outside the crawlspace, and sends available photos or video on the spot when capture conditions allow.

Real crawlspace media

Photos and video are captured from the rover's viewpoint so you can see what the camera actually reached.

Live direction

The technician operates the rover while the customer watches and asks for specific visible areas when conditions allow.

Clear handoff

Media is sent at the end of the visit when capture conditions allow, so next steps do not wait on a separate report cycle.

Charged now, confirmed by AlouTech

Payment is collected when the request is placed. If AlouTech cannot confirm the appointment, the booking is refunded or rescheduled.
