Building Exterior
Note: At least once a year, the client should carefully inspect the exterior walls, eaves, soffits or fascia, for signs of damage caused by machinery,
weather, roof leaks, overfull gutters, trees or ice, and refasten or repair individual boards or panels as necessary. All trim around doors and windows
should be carefully examined and then refastened repaired or re-caulked and painted to keep wood rot at bay. The paint should be examined for
cracking, blisters or peeling that might indicate moisture problems within the walls and the property touched up or repainted as necessary. Finally, the
foundation (interior elements and exterior elements) should be examined for signs of cracking, insect intrusion, moisture intrusion, or changes of any
type (such as the appearance of cracks, or the widening or lengthening of existing cracks). Vegetation too close to the building can contribute to
damage through root damage to the foundation, branches abrading the roof and siding, and leaves providing a pathway for moisture and insects into
the building. The client should understand that this is the assessment of an inspector, not a professional engineer, and that, despite all efforts, there is
no way we can provide any guaranty that this foundation, and the overall structure and structural elements of the building is sound.We suggest that if
the client is at all uncomfortable with this condition or our assessment, a professional engineer be consulted to independently evaluate the condition,
prior to making a final purchase decision. The inspection is supplemental to the Property Disclosure.
