Whether you're buying, selling, or dealing with an insurance requirement, our Richmond, VA 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. Findings are prioritized by urgency so you know what needs attention now versus later.
Calibrated moisture meters check suspect areas — around windows, at seams, near ground level — for trapped water. We cross-reference exterior readings against any interior staining for a fuller picture.
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.
Reports clearly note condition, damage if present, and estimated remaining service life. We can revise report format on request if your specific insurer has a preferred layout.
A clean inspection report can also be a selling point during negotiations. 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.
The full walk typically takes under two hours depending on home size.
If repair or replacement is needed, we can provide a separate estimate for that work.
You receive a written report with photos and findings, typically within a day or two of the visit.
Thermal imaging showed an insulation gap we never would have found just looking at the surface.
Got the insurance-formatted report exactly when we needed it for a policy renewal deadline.
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.
