"This was one of the best experiences I've had with a home improvement in a long time. The sales pitch was very low key but obvious when I saw how bad my insulation was. The crew was friendly and explained what they were doing as they were doing it. They left no mess and my house is cooler and more energy efficient because of it. It's nice that Evergy and Spire offer rebates for the work done. It really made it a no-brainer. This was more than just blowing in the attic insulation. They sealed the air vents, insulated the knee walls and generally did everything to make my house as efficient as possible."

"They did roof inspection and maintenance. A dozen shingles were replaced and the roof was caulked/sealed. Their response was timely, work was well done and the price was reasonable. Overall a good experience!"

"The technician completed the repairs same day he came out to give an estimate. Given the location, I can't inspect closely, but it looks good from the ground! Only time will reveal the durability of the work, but at this point, I would hire this contractor again."

"Everything went pretty well. We were especially pleased with the insulation installer. The assessment seemed a little cookie cutter. The assessor setup the blower device and wanted to be on his way ASAP after it was completed. They generated a huge report with recommendations and explanations of energy audits, energy use, potential savings, etc. I had some followup questions, the home energy auditor was not always responsive to email questions. I have more questions than most people. Generally speaking the job was done relatively well and I'm confident our home is less drafty than before."

"I live in Lees Summit and met with Gabriel on the same day of contact after the March storm. He did a thorough inspection and clearly explained the damages, process and costs of repairing my roof and deck and filing the claim. Gabriel willingly met with my adjuster during inspection and was knowledgable enough to point out damages she overlooked for repair.The project was completed by their crew in a timely and efficient manner (even on rainy days). I was so satisfied with the professionalism and promptness of Gabriel and Collins roofing , I recommended them to 4 of my neighbors in the subdivision , all of whom hired them to complete their roof replacements and damages from the same storm. Thumbs up to Gabriel and Collins Roofing."

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.
