Priority-Ranked Deficiency List With Cost Ranges

Critical, moderate, and monitor-only deficiencies ranked separately. Rough repair cost ranges for each category so you can make informed decisions about scope and timeline.

Non-invasive readings taken at systematic grid across each elevation. Readings above baseline flagged and location-referenced on a simple elevation diagram included with the report.

Photo-illustrated written report delivered within 24–48 hours of inspection. Organized by elevation and priority level: Critical / Moderate / Monitor. Rough repair cost ranges included for each deficiency category.

Customer Reviews

Real Reviews from Siding Inspection Clients Across South Fork, PA

★★★★★

The moisture map in the report — actual readings, by location on the wall face — was the documentation we needed when the seller's agent tried to dispute the findings. Numbers don't argue with opinions.

R. & T. Holcomb

South Fork, PA

★★★★★

Annual inspection caught failed caulk at a rear wall penetration completely hidden behind a hose bib. Fixed for under $300. The inspector showed me how to monitor that location going forward so I'm not catching it blind next year.

Y. Okafor

South Fork, PA homeowner

★★★★★

The geo-referenced photos in the report were what turned the claim. Panel-by-panel documentation with location references is what adjusters need to approve full scope — not a count from the driveway.

C. Bauer

South Fork, PA

★★★★★

The report's separation of Critical, Moderate, and Monitor deficiencies made it easy to prioritize what to fix before listing versus what to disclose as maintenance items. That structure saved us from over-spending on low-priority issues.

FAQ

Answers to Your Siding Inspection Questions

The diagnostic tools are the differentiator. Non-invasive meter scanning identifies elevated moisture behind panels without drilling. Pin-type readings confirm elevated areas at accessible points. Without those tools, an inspection is a visual walk-around — accurate for obvious failures, blind to the moisture damage that's most expensive to discover after closing.

Our standard toolkit: calibrated pin-type moisture meter for sheathing readings at accessible points, non-invasive capacitance meter for scanning behind panels in suspected infiltration zones, caulk probe tool for joint integrity testing, 24" level for checking panel alignment and drainage plane, and DSLR with macro capability for documenting panel-face conditions. We also use a tablet documentation system that references each photo to its location on the building.

Annual inspections on any exterior cladding over 15 years old are cost-effective in South Fork, PA — catching failed caulk and minor fastener movement at the annual visit costs far less than the water damage these small failures cause if left unaddressed for years.

If the inspection identifies repair work you engage us to complete, the inspection fee is credited against the repair project cost. That arrangement ensures the inspection is an objective assessment — not a sales tool designed to generate the highest possible repair recommendation.

The most valuable finding in a pre-purchase inspection is sheathing moisture that's elevated but not yet producing interior symptoms. At that stage, the repair scope is a fraction of what it becomes once interior drywall is affected. That finding — invisible to a visual inspection — is what the non-invasive meter exists to find.

Yes, we can complete any repair work identified in the inspection report. However, the inspection report is yours regardless of whether you use us for repairs. It includes enough specificity — panel counts, elevation locations, deficiency type, rough cost ranges — for you to get competitive repair quotes from any contractor.
