Siding problems hide behind a good-looking surface more often than homeowners expect — a proper Siding Inspection catches them before they become expensive.
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.
Findings are documented with photos so you can negotiate repairs or pricing with full information. We check age-appropriate wear against the home's stated construction date, flagging any mismatch worth asking the seller about.
We identify the likely source of moisture intrusion, not just confirm that it exists. Multiple readings are taken per suspect area, since a single reading can be misleading if the meter contacts an unusual spot.
Infrared imaging reveals temperature differences that often indicate hidden moisture or insulation gaps behind siding. 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. Reports include photo-referenced findings keyed to specific elevations for easy adjuster or underwriter review.
A clean inspection report can also be a selling point during negotiations. A prioritized punch list separates cosmetic items from anything a buyer's inspector would likely flag as a real concern.
After hail or wind events, we check for damage that isn't obvious from the ground, including hairline cracking. A follow-up re-inspection is offered at reduced cost if repairs are made and you want documentation of the fix.
We'll confirm timeline needs, especially for real estate closing deadlines.
The full walk typically takes under two hours depending on home size.
Findings are reviewed with you on-site before the formal written report is finalized.
Reports are formatted appropriately depending on whether they're for a buyer, seller, or insurer.
Thermal imaging showed an insulation gap we never would have found just looking at the surface.
Pre-listing inspection gave us a punch list to handle before buyers ever walked through.
Inspector explained everything clearly on-site before we even got the written report.
Report was detailed enough that our contractor knew exactly where to focus the repair.
