  • Damaged exterior materials leave building materials exposed to moisture, mold, and pests.
  • The siding or cladding may not have water damage, but the envelope underneath still might.
  • Poorly installed and low-quality exterior envelope systems can lead to moisture intrusion which can contribute to mold growth and wood rot.

The EIFS and Cladding Inspection Process

Our cladding or siding inspections and EIFS inspections follow a step-by-step process that ensures a thorough and actionable report. We make sure your property meets basic inspection requirements with our iterative approach:

  • Step 1
    Visually inspect the full exterior of your property to determine the cladding material and quality of the system.
  • Step 2
    Photograph cracks, damage, or evidence of high moisture content.
  • Step 3
    Document penetration concerns for windows, doors, lighting and/or utility cables.
  • Step 4
    Probe areas of concern, if present.
  • Step 5
    Compile and present your comprehensive cladding or EIFS inspection report.

EIFS Inspection Services


An Exterior Insulation Finish System (EIFS) is an acrylic cladding system that provides insulation, water resistance, and exceptional curb appeal. It requires a specialized inspection, and HouseMaster is up for the task! Our commercial and residential EIFS inspection reports detail visual cracks or damage, which often lead to moisture being trapped within the building’s exterior walls. We also evaluate areas of high moisture content within the synthetic stucco itself.

Trust HouseMaster for your next home or building inspection, no matter what type of siding or cladding materials you have.
