Signs of a home health issue

Our experts will do a top to bottom inspection of your home and identify areas that could indicate a home health issue, including:

  • Wood Destroying Insect Evidence

    Wood destroying insects like termites can often go undetected until it's too late. Most homeowners neglect to get a regular termite inspection, leaving their home unmonitored and unprotected for years.

    The National Pest Management Association estimates that termites cause $5 Billion in damage each year in the United States alone. This termite damage is rarely covered under your Homeowners Insurance. Other wood-destroying insects that are inspected for are:

    • Carpenter Ants
    • Carpenter Bees
    • Wood Boring Beetles
  • Moisture Issues

    Moisture issues can be the root problem of many issues we face in and around our homes. Moisture presents itself in several different ways and each one brings its own set of challenges. There are many things that homeowners can do to help eliminate or prevent water issues from becoming a bigger problem.

    Our experts will point out these issues and give tips on how to correct your moisture issues. They will also gather moisture readings from in and around the home to help pinpoint the problem areas. Relative humidity and temperature readings will be taken to determine if your home is susceptible to mold and fungal growth. Other signs and key indicators that will be inspected for are:

    • Standing Water or puddling
    • Water Stains
    • Plumbing Leaks
    • Fungal Growth
    • Gutter System Drainage Issues
    • Efflorescence
    • Odors
    • Overgrown vegetation
    • Negative grade
    • Damaged wood or building materials
    • Rust
  • Visible Foundation Damage & Structural Issues

    Our homes are built on soil that can compress and move over the years. Soil can also be washed away causing your home's foundation and concrete to be undermined. These issues with the soil cause settlement issues that result in cracks, sticking windows and doors, and unlevel floors. These soils can become very heavy when they are wet and hold water. The weight of these soils along with the water cause pushing forces on your foundation walls. These forces can cause your foundation walls to fail and provide an easy entry point for water to enter your home.

    Our experts are trained to identify these issues and the root cause of the problem. Some of the problems that we report on are:

    • Stair Step Cracking
    • Bowing Walls
    • Foundation Shifting/Rotating
    • Loose/Missing Mortar
    • Inadequate Supports
    • Over-spanned Joists
    • Undermining
    • Vertical and Horizontal Cracks
    • Windows and Doors stick
