"I had a great overall experience with Home Genius Exteriors. Dante, the sales rep. showed up on time for our appointment and was very informative. He was the only roofing company rep to ask to inspect my attic as part of assessing our roofing needs (for ventilation). The initial bid came in quite high compared to other companies' bids, but Markus, one of the sales managers, came back with a very competitive quote that I felt was a great value for the cost of replacing our roof with the Owens Corning roofing system. Once I signed the contract, they were eager -- and very quick -- to start work; I heard from Tabatha, the compliance review specialist soon after. They arrived early on the day of the work, and Allen, the crew chief, had his crew on the roof in no time. Allen, the project manager arrived soon after that to talk me through the project and answer my questions. The crew shared photos with me throughout the day so I could see the progress they were making in near-real time. The crew finished the whole project in one day and did a great job cleaning up all the debris. AJ stopped by the next morning to review the work, close out the project and collect the balance due. I greatly appreciated the great communications from all involved at Home Genius Exteriors, and I would highly recommend working with this company."

"I have worked with this company in the past and would hire them again in a heartbeat. From the initial sales consultant, to the crew who completed my project, to the quality assurance manager who came to inspect the completed project, everyone was courteous, professional, and able to answer all of my questions. They completed the project on time and, in keeping with their commitment to satisfaction, exceeded my expectations. I feel that every project I have done with this group has been completed using top quality products and expert installation staff."

"Louie immediately returned my call and was out to my home the next day. He performed a thorough inspection and pointed out several issues that I missed. He was upfront about the price and their price was very competitive. They arrived on time and cleaned up everything each day. They were very thorough in the work they performed. They went above and beyond to keep us informed of the progress. The workmanship on the wood work was great. I’d recommend them to anyone."

Buying a home is important to you. Making sure you know what you are buying is important to me. Choosing Safe and Sound Home Inspections will show you why we are considered the top home inspection company in our area.\nMy inspections will include areas of the home's interior and exterior from the roof (I walk the roof when accessible) to the foundation and the exterior drainage and retaining walls if present. I include the certified Wood Destroying Organism inspection (WDO) with all of my Home Inspections. Safe and Sound Home Inspections promises you a very thorough inspection with verbal explanation of what I am seeing and a computer generated report that is to the point and easy to understand with digital color photos. \nJohn's promise to you is his very best professional inspection and complete satisfaction. "I want to make sure your house can become your home".
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.
