Comprehensive Siding Inspection
Service Across Jonesboro, IN

A professional siding inspection is categorically different from what a general home inspector delivers. We spend 90 minutes to three hours on the exterior alone, with diagnostic tools and the specific expertise to identify early-stage failure before it becomes expensive damage. The written report you receive ranks deficiencies by priority and includes rough cost ranges — actionable information, not just documentation.

Customer Reviews

What Jonesboro, IN Customers Say About Our Siding Inspection

"
★★★★★

The pre-purchase inspection found elevated sheathing moisture on two wall sections that the general home inspector had called 'siding in acceptable condition.' We had the seller credit the repair cost. That inspection paid for itself many times over.

★★★★★

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.

"
★★★★★

Post-hail inspection documented 47 impact-damaged panels across three elevations. The insurance adjuster's walk-around had found eight. Our claim settlement was for 47. The photo report was the difference between a partial patch and a full elevation replacement.

C. Bauer

★★★★★

Pre-listing inspection found minor paint failure on the north elevation — something the buyer's inspector absolutely would have flagged. Fixed for $400 before listing. The buyer's report came back clean on siding. No credits, no negotiations.

FAQ

Common Questions About Siding Inspection in Jonesboro, IN

General home inspectors cover 20+ building systems and typically spend less than five minutes per exterior elevation, noting obvious visual deficiencies from a distance. A dedicated siding inspection covers the same exterior in 90 minutes to three hours, with close-range panel assessment, calibrated moisture meter readings at a systematic grid, caulk probe testing at every accessible penetration, fastener pattern checks at accessible areas, and documented assessment of housewrap integrity at soffit edges and window flanges.
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.
Specific triggers: before purchasing a property (negotiate from documented knowledge), before listing (disclose accurately and fix what matters), after any hail or high-wind event (document damage for insurance before calling the adjuster), when interior moisture symptoms appear (trace the source before treating the symptom), and as an annual maintenance check on homes with wood or aging fiber cement siding in IN.
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.
The inspection and the repair are separate service decisions. Our goal on the inspection is the most accurate assessment possible. What you do with the information is entirely your choice — and the report gives you the documentation to make that choice from an informed position.
