"Answered online request with a phone call. Set up a time for the following week. Showed up on time, had the inspection report that evening. Very professional, I would recommend him to anyone needing a home inspection."

"Adam was very knowledgeable and willing to look at anything that I insisted upon viewing again and again. He was extremely thorough and truthful in his inspection.. He did not hold back on things that were faulty or out of order. I felt that he did an excellent job of my home inspection."

"Tim was lightning quick in responding to questions, thorough and professional. He was at the inspection site 30 minutes early and had started inspecting the roof. His quote was also very competitive. We had the inspection report a couple of hours after the inspection. Could not have asked for more. Definitely a 5 on 5."

"Let me start by saying that HESS is an amazing company and Mohammed is wonderful example of a real customer-oriented business should look like. He was very professional, competent, approachable, responsive, genuinely caring, extremely knowledgable and ready to do anything in his power to do the project to customer's full satisfaction. I bought my very first house three years ago - it was build in mid 50th and even though it passed the home inspection it was painfully obvious that there is work and money investment that need to done both in the attic and in the crawl space - the house was incredibly drafty and it took a lot of HVAC's effort and energy to heat it up in winter and cool it down in summer. I got some estimates for insulation of both areas but the pricey were so exuberant that I put those project on a back burner. Until my friend told me about Mohammed and his company - they performed weatherization of her house and she was very happy. So I decided to give it a try. And I was more than satisfied! The whole process couldn't be any smoother. From the start when Mohammed performed the audit of the house, explained to me in details what the issues were and how to fix them, to bringing the crew of amazing workers who finished the job practically in half a day (working simultaneously in the attic and the crawl space) leaving the house spotless. And most importantly, my house feels absolutely amazing now! The temperature fluctuations between day and night that I experienced before have disappeared and the house remains pretty much at the same temperature all the time, without using heating/cooling during the months of May and June. Pretty amazing! And all of this work, with the help of Maryland programs (and HESS took care of all that paperwork!), cost me fraction of the money that original estimates asked for. I would absolutely and wholeheartedly recommend Mohammed and HESS to anyone who wants their house to feel good and comfortable and who wants to do it with a company that puts their customer satisfaction as their number one priority!"

"Great experience from first phone call to finish. Their very responsive, customer-oriented staff let me know what was going to happen and when every step of the way. They replaced my 30-year-old roof to include skylights, as well as my gutters and downspouts. Quality, professional workmanship and thorough cleanup after the job was done. I will definitely choose Pond for future projects for my home."

"The metal plate has been re-installed professionally, but the roof was only inspected partially due to rain at the time. They did a smaller thing instead with a small reduction of the price."

"Our review is based on the purchase (part 1) for replacing siding for both side of our home. Jacob L. was very professional, on time, and honest. He knows what he is selling. We learned a lot about our home during his presentation. Before we bought our home we paid for a professional home inspection. We thought our house inspector was very good but he did miss something---the siding on the sides of our home was installed extremely bad. Jacob pointed out so much that we just didn't know and should have be caught during our home inpection. Thanks Jacob!!"

"We had one solar tube (14 inch) put in the bathroom and two installed in an upstairs office. What an incredible difference they make!! The company representative came to our home to do the estimate and explained all the options, including advantages, limitations and upgrades. His advice for our particular situation was invaluable! Once we'd selected our tubes, he scheduled installation for very soon. The installation was quick and minimally disruptive. We're thrilled with the rsult and would recommend these professionals without any reservation."

"Every aspect of NOVA Exteriors service and work on replacing our weather-beaten, 15-year old wooden 9-window pane garage entry door with a nearly identical beautiful weather-proof 9-window pane ProVia door was simply OUTSTANDING. Having spent 35 years involved with the design/construction/renovation of hundreds of apartment buildings and residential projects, I don't give out such compliments lightly. Unlike some of our other home improvement projects, NOVA's attention to detail, quality of work, professionalism (including its COVID-19 "cleanliness"), and the finished product were spectacular; its price was just slightly less than what I had guess-estimated in advance. From our only meeting to discuss door design selection, their color-matching process, initial measurement-taking, and contract execution to their subsequent door and door frame weather-stripping installation, caulking, sealing, punch-list completion and debris removal (which work took about 3 hours all on the same day), our project unfolded perfectly and on time; their courteous phone and on-site personnel were also always very professional. After our initial meeting, NOVA's 3-step process was meticulous with excellent attention to detail at each stage. When our project was completed, I was VERY happy that I had used them. NOVA’s highly detailed 3-step process for door replacements for us was as follows: (1) at the initially meeting, you start with door design selection, color scheme matching of the door, trim, casing, door hardware, and doorway frame weatherstripping, and the initial "taking" of the door and doorway-related measurements followed by an on-site cost contract proposal; (2) after contract execution, on a follow-up visit, a different NOVA Exteriors person subsequently re-measures every dimension to ensure the initial measurements’ accuracy; and (3) then a month later, the actual ProVia door was installed along with the perfectly color-matching door frame weatherstripping, casing, caulking, sealant, rubber gaskets, etc. Upon completion, unasked, NOVA gave me a small bottle of matching lacquer or paint in case our door needs a touch-up due to wear and tear. The door itself is beautiful!! Before I chose NOVA Exteriors, a non-Angie's List company and one of NOVA's competitors from Angie’s List came out to do estimates and give me their sales pitches - the difference between NOVA's cost-estimating, door selection and color-matching process, and sale pitch versus those 2 other companies was like watching the Patriots' Tom Brady play against a (bad) high school football team. From the minute that NOVA's highly-professional cost estimator (Rob, that’s you!) arrived with his big box of door-related hardware and weather-stripping options and color matching choices and his catalog of ProVia door choices, I felt very comfortable that our home's door replacement project would unfold perfectly - and it did. Because I found NOVA Exteriors on Angie’s List, and had authorized Angie’s List to give NOVA my cell #, NOVA did leave me several polite voicemails trying to schedule their initial project meeting with me. If you use Angie's List to get cost proposals from different companies including NOVA, please do NOT feel pestered by NOVA's multiple phone calls to you trying to reach you to schedule that initial meeting (but I never felt like that - I knew it was my fault for not returning their polite messages and in hindsight really appreciated their persistence). Due to how Angie's List’s business "works," NOVA just wants to make sure that, before you might meet/select someone else, they at least get a “fair shot” to meet with you to evaluate your project and to provide you with their proposed cost contract. I’m extremely happy that I eventually returned their calls and totally pleased with myself for selecting NOVA for our garage entry door replacement project. NOVA's work product, professional service, pricing, timeliness, and attention to detail are simply the best."

FAQs for home inspection projects in Philomont, 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.
