Post Storm Inspections

During the storm, your family’s safety is top priority.

But once it passes, assessing your home is the next major concern.  

What we inspect after a storm...

             Roof                                    Attic                              Exterior                       Infrared Scan

Roof Inspection

​When our inspectors deem the area safe, they will walk on and over the roof for a thorough roof inspection.

The inspection will include:

-  An evaluation of the roof-covering materials
- The gutters and downspouts
- The plumbing stacks/exposed vents
- The flashing and any skylights
- The chimney, and other roof penetrations.  

​The inspector will note the overall condition of the roof and suggest any recommended repairs or replacements.

Attic Inspection

​Attics are designed to provide proper ventilation in the house. Storm rain may cause water to infiltrate the attic and this may lead to costly repairs in the future if left uninspected. 

Inspectors will check for any leaks, damage to decking material, or any material that has been misplaced or shifted.

Exterior Inspection

As the term itself implies, inspectors will be checking for any damages on the exterior part of the house. 

​The front door, driveway, walkway, walls, exterior lighting, and all the other visible exterior parts of the house in the front, right, and backside will be thoroughly inspected for any damages.

Infrared Scan

Thermal Imaging, also called infrared imaging or thermography, is an advanced, non-invasive technology that allows the inspector to show homeowners things about their homes that can’t be revealed using conventional inspection methods.  

An infrared inspection can help identify issues such as:
- Moisture Intrusion
- Heating/Cooling Loss
- Electrical Hot Spots
- Insulation Issues
​
Our home inspectors use this as a tool when inspecting your home to help detect issues that may not be visible to the human eye. This tool allows the inspectors to determine temperature differences, but it will not allow them to see physically behind/within a wall.
