"VERY highly recommend!!! My husband and I recently hired Contemporary Inspection Services and we could not be more pleased with their work! Phil was very friendly and responsive to my initial request, as well as throughout the entire process. As he worked on the inspection, Phil explained things patiently and politely, answering my many questions. Later that same day, Phil sent us the inspection report, which was clear, concise, and thorough. Areas of concern were explained in detail and accompanied by either a photo or a video to make sure that we understood the issue. Phil even offered to answer other questions should they arise. We are very impressed with the work of Contemporary Inspections Services!"

"Man, these guys were exactly what I needed. I had Brian out to my house and did the most thorough inspection and found issues that I had no clue were going on. He was very knowledgeable and treated me and my home withe respect you would hope to expect. He went through and showed me all the materials and walked me through the entire experience. He was up front and honest about what my project would cost with everything included in the price. It was also pretty affordable and had great finance options. I highly recommend if you?ve had any past problems with contractors or have a tricky roof! 100 out of 10 recommend!"

"Home exteriors was very professional. Came out promptly for an estimate. The roof was larger than the angie's list deal allowed, but the price was still very fair. They were able to schedule very quickly (less than 3 weeks) and did the work over 2 days. They cleaned up the tear off materials and put on the new roof. Quality is good and it looks good also. We did have a problem with a gutter leaking in heavy rain. I called to report it and they sent someone out the next day and had it fixed. No problems since I would definitely recommend them again!"

"A-1 Superior Home Improvement, Travis Workman. We highly recommend this business. All work we required was completed. Our sister’s metal roof was painted ensuring a number of years of use without problems. Our gutters were cleaned and most important out siding was replaced that was damaged by a tree a number of years ago. We had sought out other service providers to repair the siding, but no one ever followed up. Most house siding is 4” but ours is 4 ½”, harder to find. Travis and his wife made calls and search to find siding that would work on our house. While it took a little time, they did not give up. After a number of years of tattered siding, thanks to their efforts, our house siding is renewed."

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.
