"My project was so much more than â siding replacement/repairâ . I have a â wall of windowâ that had to be removed, wood repaired, windows re-installed, siding replaced and painted. WHOA! Mr. Muncey was very quick to respond to my inquiry via Home Advisors, he came out inspected the project within a few days, explained why it was in such bad shape and what he could do to fix it. He was straightforward, provided a very reasonable quote (I had 6 other quotes to compare) and he stayed within the budget/cost he presented. Once the decision was made to accept his services, he and his crew got the job started as quickly as feasible and completed within a reasonable time (weather was not kind to us). He responded to my questions and answered with knowledge and consideration. I advised my daughter to call him when her familyâ s home got roof damage from the recent storms in Gardendale/ Mt.Olive- now that says A LOT!"

"Quick, high quality work! Previously, I used Dunaway in 2021 to complete repairs to fix a leak. These repairs were completed on time and with such a high quality that an inspector later commented on how well the repairs were performed. In April of 2024, I needed several repairs completed quickly and a new roof to close on a home. Dunaway completed all of the repairs including a new roof, trim repairs and replacement, gutter replacement, and exterior door replacement (along with painting repairs) very quickly. The repairs were excellent. Throughout the process, they were excellent at communicating with me, answering questions, showing me work and issues, and completing everything I needed to close on time by working sunup to sundown. The owner and his wife along with all of their employees are friendly and respectful; they were great about cleaning up and leaving the site looking acceptable for my neighbors and HOA each day during the progress and at the end of the job. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them to everyone."

"Ismael was great at explaining everything to me, but due to the leak that I was having with my roof and the time it took for him to get back with me, I hired someone else."
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.
