"Everything went really well! It took awhile (6 months) for the windows to come and the front exterior door about another month, but once they were here installation happened in about 3 days with a couple more days for paint touch ups. We replaced 15 windows, the front exterior door with 2 sidelites and the interior door to the garage. We ordered the windows prestained and then the trim was finished before installation. The installers were prompt, courteous and professional. They cleaned up after themselves and Rick was great facilitating everything. Everything passed our local inspections and looks great! We highly recommend Eagle Siding and would hire them again!"

"In my 20+ years of being a home owner, Scott & Lakewoods Remodeling are the best contractors that I have ever worked with. After the 2017 hailstorm, Scott worked tirelessly with the insurance company to make sure that I was fairly represented. As a result, the insurance company agreed that a full re-roof & reside was the fair settlement. In addition, despite the difficulties with the insurance company, Scott was also able to replace (instead of repair) my badly damaged AC unit at no additional cost. Scott's crew does excellent work and are very professional. I would not hesitate to hire Lakewoods remodeling for any future projects."

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 Electrical problems such as flickering lights, warm outlets, or outdated wiring present serious safety hazards.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.
