Whether you're buying, selling, or dealing with an insurance requirement, our Shakopee, MN inspectors document exactly what's really going on.
We use calibrated moisture meters and thermal imaging to detect trapped water behind panels that a visual check alone would miss.
Thermal scans can reveal insulation gaps and moisture patterns invisible to the naked eye.
Equipment is calibrated regularly, since a poorly calibrated moisture meter gives false readings either direction.
Inspectors are trained specifically on siding-related moisture and structural issues, not general home inspection basics.
Reports are backed by professional liability coverage appropriate for inspection work.
Real estate transactions often have tight deadlines — we prioritize scheduling around closing dates.
Insurance-requested inspections get scheduled quickly to avoid claim or renewal delays.
Every inspection includes a clear, written report with photos, not just a verbal walkthrough summary.
Pricing is flat-rate regardless of what we find, so there's no incentive to inflate findings.
Different situations call for different depths of inspection — here's what we offer.
Before you buy, we check for hidden moisture, rot, and installation defects that a general home inspection might miss. We check age-appropriate wear against the home's stated construction date, flagging any mismatch worth asking the seller about.
Calibrated moisture meters check suspect areas — around windows, at seams, near ground level — for trapped water. Multiple readings are taken per suspect area, since a single reading can be misleading if the meter contacts an unusual spot.
This non-invasive method finds problems without removing any panels. We explain thermal patterns in plain language in the report, not just raw images without context.
We provide the documentation format insurance companies typically require for claims or policy renewals. We can revise report format on request if your specific insurer has a preferred layout.
Know what a buyer's inspector might find before you list, and address issues on your own terms and timeline. We can provide a redacted summary version if you'd rather not share every technical detail with buyers.
Reports are formatted to support an insurance claim if damage is found. We compare findings against known storm dates and hail size data for the area when available.
We'll confirm timeline needs, especially for real estate closing deadlines.
An inspector arrives with moisture meters and thermal imaging equipment to assess the full exterior.
Findings are reviewed with you on-site before the formal written report is finalized.
You receive a written report with photos and findings, typically within a day or two of the visit.
Pre-purchase inspection found moisture behind a wall the seller's disclosure never mentioned — saved us from a bad surprise.
Pre-listing inspection gave us a punch list to handle before buyers ever walked through.
Post-storm inspection found hairline hail cracking our own eyes completely missed.
Report was detailed enough that our contractor knew exactly where to focus the repair.
Flat-rate pricing means no incentive to inflate what we find.
