"From the initial visit with the salesman to the production coordinators to the project managers to the boots on the ground (or roof) my experience with Home Genius Exteriors has been amazing! Tony, the Project Manager, is incredibly knowledgeable and personable. He took the time to walk me through every phase of my roof and siding replacement. He was very responsive, even during off-work hours. He addressed every concern I had and was thoughtful in his responses. He was very thorough when conducting inspections, identifying action items I didnâ t see, even if it meant additional work for his field crew at no extra cost. I canâ t say enough about the field crews for both my roof and siding replacements. They were incredible and they didnâ t treat my house as â just the next jobâ . They catered to my houseâ s needs, worked extremely efficiently, and did everything I asked of them. I would highly recommend Home Genius Exteriors for roof, siding, and gutter needs!"

"Phillip was awesome. We asked for a home inspection and sewer scope. You thoroughly conducted his inspection, went over everything with me in detail, and provided me a very nice report that was nicely organized and included images and videos. I highly recommend 8 Point Home Inspections LLC!"

"I can’t recommend Encompass Home Inspections highly enough! As a Realtor, I work with inspectors all the time, and Encompass stands out for their professionalism, thoroughness, and the time they take to educate buyers. Their reports are clear, detailed, and delivered quickly — but what I appreciate most is the way they walk clients through every step without overwhelming them. They answer all questions, explain the “why” behind their findings, and ensure everyone feels confident moving forward. Reliable, knowledgeable, and extremely easy to work with — Encompass makes what could be a stressful process feel smooth and reassuring. I’ll continue recommending them to clients with full confidence!"

"They were just excellent and very professional. This was the first time I ever had dealt with any type of contactor. They gave me list of what was need with pictures an estimate on the cost of materials and labor. They were on time and when job was done they cleaned up and it looked as they were never there. My roof looks really great. I would"

"WT Anderson was great! We had new fascia and soffit replaced on our two story home as well as new gutters and downspouts. Each time, the workers were on-time and thoroughly cleaned up after installation. We also had Hurricane Matthew damage and like others, we had to replace a damaged portion of our roof (given an old oak tree had fallen on our home). The repair for the roof was perfect. I had given them a broken piece of shingle and they matched it so when you look at our roof, you cannot tell where the repair was done. My wife and I have been very pleased each time we have used this company. We are actually are going to consider them for replacement windows here within the next few months. I have to add that their staff is terrific. I have never dealt with a home repair company who provides great customer service by phone, email and in person. Our sales rep, Jonathan, is hands down, an asset to this company. His professionalism, knowledge and non-pressure demeanor is what sold us in the very beginning. Allow WT Anderson to do an estimate for you. You will not be disappointed."

"The crew arrived at 8:30am. They put tarps over my foundation flowerbeds. by 9:00am, old roofing materials were being dropped onto the tarps. Some fo the workers bundled the shingles and hand-carried to the roof edge, refuse-trailer was parked. The old shingles were dropped into the refuse-trailer. By 10:30am, the tarps were rolled up and taken to the refuse-trailer in wheelbarrows so as not damage my front lawn's septic field. by 11:00am, workers were inspecting my yard for stray roofing, picking them up by hand. A large flatbed truck arrived by 11:35am, loaded with my new roofing materials. After the materials were off-loaded, the workers set up ladders, and hand-carried everything to the roof. After that was completed, a small generator was set up for air nailers, and they began installation of my new roof. By 4:00pm, they began the final cleanup. Trash was picked up and put into the refuse-trailer. By 5:00pm, the work was done. A last-minute inspection got rid of some leftover trash. The man leaf-blowing debris, even cleaned out my gutter! And before they took down all of the ladders, they even put my disconnected downspout back together! At 5:09pm, the refuse-trailer was covered, re-connected to the truck that brought it, and driven away. The roofing crew left at 5:25pm, but not before I thanked them. I told them how much I appreciated their hard work, and appreciated them taking time to re-connect my gutter's downspout as they completed their inspection of my yard."

"I called for a roof estimate and Jay explained that he wasn't the contractor for me. I appreciated his honesty and that he took the time to explain that he would be higher in price since his services wouldn't be ideal for what we needed done. He was straight up and an honest man and also gave me tips on what we should look for since we were selling our home and just needed a basic roof replacement."

FAQs for home inspection projects in Chesapeake, VA

Most mobile home inspections require two to three hours to complete properly. The timeline varies based on your home's size, age, and overall condition. Inspectors need sufficient time to examine all major systems, document their findings, and compile their observations. 

If the inspector discovers concerning issues that warrant deeper investigation, the process may take longer. For the most thorough assessment, try to schedule your inspection during daylight hours when visibility is optimal.

Pay close attention to water damage indicators like ceiling stains, warped flooring, or musty odors. Structural concerns, including uneven floors, sagging rooflines, or doors that won't close properly, suggest potential foundation issues. Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards. 

Impromptu modifications or repairs performed without proper permits often signal deeper problems. Windows that don't seal properly may indicate structural shifting or water infiltration.

Yes, professional inspectors evaluate the foundation components and anchoring mechanisms during a thorough assessment. They examine support piers, blocks, and tie-downs for proper installation and condition. The inspection includes checking for appropriate ground clearance and adequate ventilation beneath the home. 

Proper anchoring is essential for stability during adverse weather conditions. Foundation issues can affect everything from door alignment to plumbing function, making this a critical part of any comprehensive inspection.

Industry professionals recommend scheduling maintenance inspections every two to three years for manufactured homes. Homes in regions with extreme weather conditions may benefit from more frequent evaluations. Consider arranging an inspection after significant storms or if you notice any unusual changes in your home's condition. 

Regular assessments help identify minor issues before they develop into major problems. Maintaining documentation of these inspections also provides valuable records for insurance purposes or future sale considerations.

Search for inspectors with certifications from recognized professional organizations in your state. Specialized training or experience with manufactured housing is particularly valuable for these unique structures. Ask potential inspectors about their familiarity with HUD standards for manufactured homes. Professional membership in industry associations often indicates commitment to ongoing education and ethical standards. Request sample reports from prospective inspectors to evaluate their thoroughness and clarity of communication.

Many insurance providers consider inspection results when determining policy rates and coverage terms. A positive report demonstrating well-maintained systems and the absence of hazards may qualify you for better rates. Addressing issues identified during inspection demonstrates proactive maintenance that insurers often reward. Some companies offer specific discounts for homes that meet certain safety and structural standards. 

Contact your insurance provider before scheduling an inspection to understand exactly what documentation they require for potential premium reductions.
