Your Savannah Home Inspection Professionals

When we assess exterior elements, we check the visible siding and trim, windows, doors, garages, porches, decks, stairs, and railings. We also assess proper construction and function, looking for damage, missing components, or other conditions that might lead to infiltration or functional concerns.

During the interior portion of your home inspection in Savannah and nearby communities, we inspect visible areas of all walls, ceilings, stairways, representative windows and doors, and attic areas. We look for signs of leakage, damage, sagging, or other structural concerns. We will operate windows to determine function. In accessible attics, besides assessing structural components, we note insulation and ventilation conditions.
