Inspections Preventative Maintenance: Proactive protection & reports

You wouldn’t drive a car for ten years without an oil change, yet many homeowners wait until a ceiling falls in to check for rot. Our inspection service is designed to be your home’s “annual physical.” We have a “rot-focused” eye, looking specifically for the subtle signs of moisture failure that general home inspectors often miss. We provide detailed reports that prioritize repairs—from “fix this today” to “keep an eye on this next year.” This proactive approach is the most effective way to manage the costs of homeownership in a rainforest climate.

More About Inspections & Preventative Maintenance

An inspection is the cheapest repair you’ll ever buy. For the price of a service call, you can catch a $200 maintenance issue before it evolves into a $20,000 rot restoration project.

  • Rot Inspections: We perform “probe testing” on your home’s most vulnerable areas. We check the siding, trim, and deck connections to find soft wood before it becomes a structural issue.

  • Water Intrusion Inspections: We use thermal imaging and moisture meters to “see” inside your walls. We find the hidden dampness that indicates a failing seal or a flashing error.

  • Real Estate Reports: Buying or selling? We provide professional, third-party reports on the structural health of the home, giving you leverage during negotiations or peace of mind during a purchase.

  • Maintenance Lists: We provide a customized “Home Health Plan.” This lists the small tasks—like recaulking a window or cleaning a vent—that will keep your home rot-free.

  • Preventative Sealing: We don’t just find problems; we prevent them. We can go around your home and refresh the caulking and sealants in high-risk areas to stop leaks before they start.

  • Gutter & Downspouts: Improper drainage is the #1 cause of foundation rot. We ensure your gutters are pitched correctly and that downspouts are moving water far away from your walls.

  • Vent & Skylight Repair: Roof penetrations are high-risk zones. We inspect and reseal the flashing around vents and skylights to prevent attic rot and ceiling damage.

  • Light Fixture Reseal: It sounds small, but a leaky light fixture can rot out a whole wall. We ensure every exterior penetration is properly gasketed and caulked.

Our Wood Rot Repair Process

  • Inspect and probe. We check beyond the visible damage, since rot in Lynnwood homes often extends further than it appears on the surface.
  • Remove and cut back. Only the compromised wood is removed, cutting back to solid, healthy material.
  • Treat and seal. Exposed wood grain is treated and sealed to keep moisture from working its way back in.
  • Rebuild to match. Damaged sections are rebuilt or replaced to match your home’s existing trim profiles and siding lines, so the repair blends in.
  • Prime and finish. We finish with a high build, flexible coating designed to hold up through Lynnwood’s wet winters and low sun conditions.
